Carl Peterson has had 19 years to build something in KC. 5+ of those years had 8 fuggin PRO BOWLERS on offense, and he still couldn't win an AFC Championship game. Now, the chickens have come home to roost, and all of his pathetic drafts and FA acquisitions have put this team in a terrible position, stocked with very little young talent - and dismal prospects for the future, period. He's created a situation that won't be fixed in one or two seasons, yet he continues to try and win 7-9 games, at the expense of possibly building a winner for the future, which is what most of us want. He does it to persuade the "real fans"/lemmings, foolish enough and unable to see through his ruse, to continue to buy his shitty product so he can keep his job for another year or two. That's not what I want, and Clark needs to wake up before he runs his dad's franchise right over the cliff. Last edited by hawkchief; 09-11-2007 at 02:47 PM.. |

Next year, the Royals are expected to receive $70 mil. in revenue sharing. Let's see us continue to increase the payroll. Let's see us continue to be players for premier free-agent talent. We signed one expensive player. Great. Let's get another good one. Let's see us re-sign a stud player. If Gordon and Butler develop, are you absolutely sure Glass will pony up? Not me. He has a proven track record of not trying to win, and I'm going to have to see more evidence to the contrary before I can get really excited about this team. Tired of being a glorified farm team...I don't want to spend money for spending's sake, but I want to see the positive trend we've seen this year continue. |

We got to see our QBOTF all preseason... and with that came countless threads about what a bust Croyle was. People were piling on about Croyle sucks, when it should have been clear that he's going to struggle some his first year of starting. Obviously, Carl was listening, and needed to placate those fans... so Huard is named starter, to the delight of many. Now we see Huard for what he is in the first game... Same situation with the kicker. Bust bust bust was all you heard. But instead of giving him time to develop, he's a scapegoat the first game. The same people bitching were more than likely the ones that were perfectly content when we were losing 38-31. At least that was exciting right? Bitch about Carl, but he still manipulates his fans as easily as ever... and through the Hunt's eyes, the seats are still full. Why change?

almost all the youth are guys that will only see the field on special teams.
the starters are just as old as other teams in the league if not older.

It's like I said a long time ago there are a lot of fans of this team that don't care about winning a Bowl or doing what it takes to get there.
They love the status quo of the Chiefs, they compete, win most of their home games. So they can go out there get drunk, tailgate and use it an excuse to have a good time party every Sunday and enjoy the games because the Chiefs usually win at home. You do what it takes to win a Bowl you may kill those peoples good time party for a couple years and they will be totally pissed, that is why they don't want to see the kicker or a guy like Croyle. |

It's all economics. An average team puts asses in the seats, a shitty team doesn't. Carl's main priority is money. Winning is secondary. That's why he shouldn't be the GM and CEO-it's a CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
