Teedubya getting after it

Next year the mother****er is going to be applauded by the masses of dumbasses because he'll increase spending by quite a bit, but only because he's being forced too through the CBA.

The CBA will not force the Chiefs to spend a single additional penny next year.

Why?

Because they already spend well over the minimum spending amount that will go into effect.

How?

Because the minimum amount will be measured by cash spending, not salary cap room. Those two things have nothing to do with each other.

What?

The Chiefs spend far more money than anyone thinks they do. But as this thread perfectly encapsulates, 99% of the general public thinks that if a team has ample cap room, they must not be spending money.

Why?

Not sure, but I suspect inbreeding.

Hey!

J/K lol.

I don't know whether to give you a high five, or tell you to **** off.

I can handle both.

But I didn't mean to infer the little voice asking questions was you, if that's what you thought. It was a representitive amalgam of the every man.

Good post. But we're still way under the cap. Again. And we still suck. So spend more cap money so we can get better. We have it. Again.

This is the logic I don't understand. Pioli spends upwards of $120 million and we suck, but people are perfectly willing to believe that we'll be better if he goes out and spends an extra $20 million.

If he was that savvy a spender, we wouldn't suck in the first place. Why is he going to spend that extra $20 million any wiser than he spent the first $120?

At some point the discussion needs to shift from "They don't spend money" to "They spend money foolishly because Pioli is incompetent". Unless someone in the media starts making this point, I guess it'll happen around February when the dream of CBA-forced spending officially ends.
