From Mike (610) on the Late Show: The only reason there's any conversation about D. Bowe's past behavior....is because he's black. If he were white, there would be no talk about his past issues.

Where's the controversy? I didn't realize that this conversation was going on. Most all Chiefs' fans I know want him signed. I haven't heard much other than an occasional laugh at "the Clarks" comment. I know he showed up overweight one season and that the Peeholy Gestapo nixed "The Bowe Show". And we all got a laugh out of the "importing" comments. But I haven't heard any fans mention that stuff in ages. So who's having this conversation about Bowe being a knucklehead? Or is this more hyperbole/race baiting to generate listeners?

Jared Allen was too much fun, if he would've caused a wreck and killed someone in one of his DUI's then sure the city would've dismissed him, but his color still wouldn't be a factor.

Jared Allen was the goofy redneck white guy that could be anyone's drinking partner.

He fit in perfectly with this community, and the fans over at Camarohead.
