It's hilarious that even the commercial of us drafting Leon Sandcastle first overall didn't stop us from drafting a right tackle from the Lansing Chippawakas 2 ****ing days later.

They made up a locker with the number one on it and sandcastle was the name on it. Sucks that they didn't just draft a guy at one they could pimp to the little kids. BTW my eight year old daughter was the only kid in the tour to get it Posted via Mobile Device |

One more time. Geno would not have had to be selected 1.1

Apparently every team was antsy about spending a draft pick on Geno, every team passed on him, a number passed on him twice.
The Jets actually passed on Geno twice. They traded Revis to get into the first round and select Dee Milliner. Then a few picks later in the teens they picked Sheldon Richardson. QB-poor Minnesota actually passed on him three times. |

He played a good game, so far. Maybe he will realize his potential and be the next Josh Freeman one day. |

And one more time....Andy Reid didn't want him so what the heck does it matter? We weren't going to draft him because the guys who are smart enough to take us pretty much from 2-14 to 8-0 thus far didn't want him as our QB.

Talk about a sliding scale. 2nd quarter drives being labeled "critical".
Although I guess when your offense can't do anything in quarters 3 and 4, the 2nd quarter is sort of like the end of the game for them. |

Mellinger is even chiming in on this Chiefs fans negativity phenomenon.
http://www.kansascity.com/2013/10/28...frusrated.html Things happen fast in sports, especially the NFL, and this is something you’ve probably heard a million times — including here. But even in that context, there is something completely bizarre going on with at least some Chiefs fans. I read it in my emails, hear it in my voicemails, see it on Twitter and around town talking to people: At least some fans of a team that went 2-14 a year ago are now frustrated with the same team being 8-0, the NFL’s last undefeated team, and in control of its division and homefield advantage in the playoffs. Now, what I’m talking about is different than the reasonable acknowledgement that the Chiefs have caught an ungodly string of breaks this year, have played a very easy schedule, and need to get better on offense. What I’m talking about is what feels like almost a muscle memory strings of complaints and pessimism about a team that’s finally giving a starved fan base something to chew on. Look, if nothing else, the Chiefs have what really might be the best defense in the NFL. If nothing else, it has shown itself to be a remarkably clutch defense, and like I wrote in the column, we’ll see soon enough if this can hold up against better competition. But for right now, if you can’t enjoy these Chiefs a year removed from those Chiefs, then what’s the point of liking sports?

Yep. This feels like another choose your own adventure book, and pretty soon we flip to the page that lets you choose between "kicker misses three field goals" or "quarterback shits his pants."

Some people are completely insane. Upset that we "overpaid" with 2 second rounders on Alex Smith, but would be perfectly fine with us using 1.1 on a guy who no one in the NFL even wanted anywhere in the first round.
Then the scale slides to "Well we could have had him in the second round." Many of the people who wish we would have taken him in the second are people who have argued for years that it is impossible to win a Super Bowl without a QB that you draft in the top of the first round. |
