But training camp reports are these long lists of everything they're concerned with. And when something positive might be happening, everyone needs to take a wait and see approach, because after all this is only training camp, and you can't really judge until the season starts. |

I think that KC has had its bright spots in local sports media. JoPo is very talented and entertaining. He, like others here in KC, has gone on to get a national spotlight. His trophy case is full of bling. Len Dawson is a treasure. He's quite good at giving NFL analysis. Truly knows the game of football. EXTREMELY likeable. Insights like none other. Denny Matthews is another favorite. Very smart and talented man. Frank White and Paul Splittorf are great for the Royals. Love their efforts. Also, the radio talkshow guys do have a rough go of it. I know that I could never talk sports for 4+ hours and keep people interested. There's many other examples but I'm tired and going back to bed. Peace & happiness to everyone here.

They need to be tough on the local teams to create even more pressure. Demanding success is a good thing. Where they are wrong is that they are way off on what they should be tough on. They should be attacking Cassel, Bowe, the safetys, and the linebackers. Carr being abused most of the season should be on their radar, too, even though we got little pressure on the QB to help him. |

The local media did NOT run Hank Stram or Whitey Herzog out of this town. That's completely false.
Whtey Herzog was canned because he felt betrayed by Joe Burke, and by association, EK. He wanted Burke to go sign a FA power hitting bat or a real closer to put them over the top. It was the only thing he ever asked for in his attempt to beat the Yankees. Joe Burke and EK signed a FA though: Jerry F'ing Terrell. From the Twins. a utility infielder and nice guy that carried a bible everywhere. That's why Burke signed him. The Yankees? They signed Reggie. And then Gossage. And had Sparky Lyle too. This was Whitey's quote in the clubhouse in 1978 after they blew an 8th inning lead in game 3: Quote:

As a kid I saved literally hundreds of newspaper articles and had them plastered all over my room. I wish I'd have saved some of them. Whitey was a character and had a ton of hilarious quotes.

Uh......He was suspended for a game by the Giants before the shooting incident because he was a locker room problem.

I do think it's funny sometimes when some people at 610 claim Royals and Chiefs managers, coaches, or GMs should be fired for poor performance, when 610 regularly gets drubbed in the ratings.

Both points here, the time away from the game, and the issues in Pittsburg, are very good points. Both have to be considered when discussing Plax. Kudos.
