I followed Phillip at Rice. I knew the Chiefs were going to draft him. He played great press man coverage and had outstanding recovery speed. The Chiefs were deep at CB, though, and he got hurt. By the time he was healthy — I don’t know. I knew he was a great competitor but the Chiefs played more off man and more zone. Threw Phillip in the slot, and he struggled. He was by all accounts an outstanding teammate. He deserves another shot in the NFL, maybe even in KC. He’ll definitely have suitors. The league is starved for corners. God bless! |

You have to understand though that as fans, we have little emotional attachment to players that don't produce well. We react to results. Quite frankly, Gaines may find better success elsewhere in a scheme that doesn't require so much single man coverage. There was a point in which i felt bad for the guy, because it was apparent that the game plan for teams going in was to pick on him. No one should be humiliated on national television, and it got so bad that there must've been hundreds if thousands of people cursing his name. That would suck for anyone. Best of luck to you and yours wherever Gaines lands next.

I'm sure Phillip is a good kid. It's not like we were rooting against him. We have wanted nothing but for him to do well. And I, for one, never wished him injury.
But let's be realistic here. Welcome to the internet Mrs. Gaines. |

For those of you who are wishing him well, I really appreciate it. I've really enjoyed reading all of your posts. I just wanted you all to know that never a day went by that he didnt try to do well for the chiefs and their fans. Im going to sign off now because it is for the best.

Hey I'm sorry if I made his mom cry. Not like Gaines hasn't been discussed on the CP before. Thread from late October:

If I ever get to the point where I treat sports like George does, it will be time to log off.

Oh and one final thing George. I appreciate you helping to pay my son's salary. You made a kid's dream come true. But I served in the Air Force for 24 years very often over seas in hostile areas to represent you and kids, so I think we are even. Can you now stop being so mean to me?
