You know what? I like what Winston had to say.

[Chris Meck]

Hold on now, hear me out.

The players don't choose who plays or not, the coaches do. In the Chiefs case, I think it seems clear that the GM is making that decision at least at QB. What the players DO choose to do is be a TEAM.

Winston is standing up for his teammate. He's circling the wagons. He's trying to inspire his teammates to be 'brawlers', to get physical and kick some ass. I like it.

I wish it were not necessary, and that we could actually have a balanced offense, but I appreciate the backbone the guy is showing. It says that they are playing for each other, which is what you want.

It just sucks that Cassel is so bad at his job. He's clearly a great guy, to inspire this sort of response even after being sooooo bad on the field. Maybe Quinn's lightbulb goes on and we start winning. It's a pretty talented team overall.

Well ... with a very few exceptions, that was mainly black humor.

I saw several of those posts and I know that most of those guys wouldn't wish harm on anyone ... physical or otherwise.

There's a lot of built-up hostility and frustration among the fans of this team and Cassel is (more rightly than not) viewed as the primary cause.

Still, I don't believe for an instant that most of those guys were truly serious.

Same thing with the fans in the stadium. To be honest, it's better he is taken out due to his play rather than his injury. I don't want to have to wonder about this if he is out for long.

With this kind of known hate for Cassel, it has to put more pressure on Pioli.

[jAZ]

Here on CP, the ratio of cheering the play to cheering the injury was at best only 40-1. That's assuming that you count the one post saying "Charles dead." is somehow cheering for the play. Otherwise it was 40-0.

It doesn't matter if the whole stadium was laughing and cheering all in a fit of black humor. It's a disgusting display and embarrassment to our city and Winston is completely justified for calling out everyone partaking in it.

Thanks for your opinion!

[FAX]

You really believe that Mr. DaFace would seriously applaud an injury to a player, Mr. jAZ?

Or, Mr. h5n1? Or, Mr. JASONSAUTO?

Unthinkable. Again, it was black humor ... to many, the preferred form.

How about Ms. Ultra Peanut? The quote was, "PLAY OF THE SEASON". That is nothing more than a statement more likely fact than not under the circumstances.

I can't vouch for everyone on that list, as I don't know many of them at all. However, I can assure you with absolute confidence that there was far less evil intent contained in those posts than you imply.

Truth.

[Hammock Parties]

“I’ve never seen a team come out there and do what we did to them,’’ offensive lineman Eric Winston said. “I’ve never seen somebody come out and run the ball like we did on them today, and that had better roll over. This has to be us every game. This has got to be us, a street fight every game. I told everybody in this locker room it’s got to be a street fight every game. This is who we are, this is who we need to be, this is Kansas City and we need to be a bunch of brawlers.

“If we have to run it 50 times and the fans boo because we ran it on third and 7, oh well. We’re going to be a bunch of brawlers . . . we’re not going to turn the ball over anymore and we’re going to get some wins.’’

This guy is a ****ing mouth breather who wants Tim Tebow at QB.

I make no claims about evil intent. I object to disgusting behavior. And that's what it was, by all involved.

But they weren't, Mr. jAZ. That's the entire point.

I would also mention again that the scope and intensity of fatigue, anger, and frustration that has been building among the fan base is practically incalculable. And it's been languishing for a long, long time. So it makes sense that, when something like this happens, the initial response is not what that same person would say or feel or think even a few moments later.

Temper justice with mercy. That's my counsel.

Although there may be exceptions, people generally don't really wish that Cassel were dead or that he were drowned in rhino urine or that his intestines be forcibly removed and fed to the cats.

It's truly unfortunate that the situation has come to this.

My dad was in the Chiefs band in the late 60's, played with them the year they won the Super Bowl. I've been a Chiefs fan my entire life. My 86 year old grandmother calls me to complain about the Chiefs to this day.

I don't recall ever wishing injury on a Chiefs player, ever. Not Fuller or Blackledge or Livingston or DeBerg or Krieg or Gannon or Grbac or Green or any number of defensive players, whom we've all loved over the years, from Bobby to Barbaro to Dino to Derrick to Neil to Derrick!

Yet, Pioli's reluctance - check that - arrogance to insult the fan base, a fan base that has endured 20 years without a playoff victory and no significant wins in more than 40 years, is not only intolerable and deplorable, it's incomprehensible, even to the fine people of the of the KC Metro area.

If Pioli tried to pull this shit in Philly or New York or Chicago, etc. and so, he'd be crucified every single day to the point where he'd either have a nervous breakdown or get on a plane, never to be seen or heard from again.

What he's done to Chiefs fans is nothing short of despicable.

And you're a ****ing disgusting moron.

Thanks for coming back around, you ****ing jackass, when the Chiefs are at their lowest point in decades.

Now kindly go **** yourself with your Arizona flagpole, ****.
