I wish Belcher were still alive so he could go kill you.

**** Bill Williamson.

I think this is quite possibly the dumbest, most inconsiderate thing I've ever seen posted on this board. You're better than that.

Cannot say that any of this is a rational or warranted reply. This lacks every quality that is needed in a time like this. Disgraceful. Utterly, depressingly, disgraceful post.

If he were a Chiefs fan it would be different.

He's not. He's a reporter. An observer of our team. And he's telling us what is the right course of action.

Of course it's the right course of action, but he's acting like we actually might do the classless thing and continue to fly the banners tomorrow.

What the ****? Does he think all people from Kansas City are petulant toddlers?

**wazu** · 12-01-2012, 10:05 PM

I felt like he was talking down from the standpoint of not assuming that Chiefs fans have enough class to do the right thing on our own. Still, he's been a supporter of the SOC thing, and I think it's better to let it go.

**DaneMcCloud** · 12-01-2012, 10:10 PM

**** Belcher and **** Bill Williamson.

What a ****ing attention whoring ass clown.

"This has been on my mind all day.

Still, after traveling 1,000 miles, I have yet to reach any comprehension. I have nothing profound to say about the horrible tragedy this morning in Kansas City that has galvanized the NFL world, other to say I have the same feeling you probably have -- utter sadness.

I awoke this morning to a text saying that a Kansas City Chiefs player murdered his girlfriend and then shot himself at the team’s facility. The text said the player involved was linebacker Jovan Belcher.

Like so many at ESPN, I immediately worked the phones in search of more details of this mind-numbing event. As I traveled to Denver, I thought about what I was going to write in this piece.

What could I say about this event that no one else is feeling or saying?

Chiefs fansJohn Rieger/US PresswireChiefs fans place a sign outside the team's practice facility, site of Jovan Belcher's suicide.
Thus, I want to join the masses and express my thoughts and grief for the family of Belcher’s victim, Kasandra M. Perkins, who died at 22, and the couple's infant daughter. Lives were ended; others were ruined. So terrible.

I also feel for bad for Scott Pioli and Romeo Crennel. The Chiefs' general manager and the head coach were talking to Belcher, according to police, just before the player walked away and shot himself.

What a terrible and emotional event to witness. This day will be with these men for the rest of their lives; they will never be able to shake it. Pioli and Crennel went to work Saturday morning to put the finishing touches on another game week in a miserable season. Then they were thrust into the middle of a crisis involving a young man they had grown to care for.

I know Pioli and Crennel are not popular figures in Kansas City these days because of the team’s 1-10 season. There is a strong chance Chiefs ownership makes wholesale changes in a month.

What happens professionally will take its course.

I expect Kansas City fans to loudly support their hurting team Sunday when the Chiefs host Carolina at Arrowhead Stadium. It should go without saying that I hope there are no airplane flyovers imploring for people to be fired, no fan “blackouts” at the game. The voice of the understandably angry Chiefs fan has been heard and it has been noted.

Sunday will be about beginning the healing process and honoring those left behind from this senseless crime. Be a Chiefs fan Sunday. At the core, that’s what you are.

I know some people don’t understand why or how the game can be played. But the Chiefs’ coaches and team captains reportedly played a major role in the decision to go ahead with it. If the Chiefs want to play, I think we can all support that choice.

I’ve been asked a lot Saturday about what Belcher was like. I didn’t know him. I never met him or interviewed him. I knew he was an overachieving player who ended up starting 44 career games after going undrafted.

I know his agent, Joe Linta, very well. He has a well-deserved reputation for representing solid-citizen types. He had always spoken highly of Belcher to me. Linta expressed disbelief Saturday.

Disbelief. That’s all you can feel when something so unspeakable happens."

hope he's right.

Funny thing is I agree with what SNR's saying... I think he was a being a bit too preachy acting like we're a bunch of idiots who have no concept of appropriate behavior.

That said, the irony is SNR calls him out in a post that basically has no tact.

**RealSNR** · 12-01-2012, 10:38 PM

Fine.

Sorry I fake-wished AIDS on stevieray, everybody.

Hootie · 12-01-2012, 10:43 PM

You know, I just don't get it...

we can cheer and laugh about a girl getting defeeted at Six Flags...but as soon as something real hits close to home someone will crack a joke and all of the sudden bam! that person is TERRIBLE and TASTELESS etc. etc. etc.

What SNR said about Belcher, a murderer, was tongue in cheek...i knew he was joking, you knew he was joking, even Denise KNEW he was joking...

yet he crossed a line? But no one crosses a line when a poor 16 year old girl ruins her life at a Six Flags when she gets her feet severed?

What?

I do love this site!!! =)

Exactly. I'm not taking back the comment about Belcher killing Williamson.

If people aren't able to take it with a grain of salt, that's their problem.

I do, however, really apologize about what I said to stevie.

A little quick research by Bill would have shown the ignorant lazy ****er that SOC had already ceased all plans for today.
