View Full Version : Chiefs Greatest CP Folk Heroes


Thig Lyfe
05-07-2012, 04:23 PM
Something I love about this place is the way we build up certain players to the point where they become mythological figures. And I don't mean true on-the-field heroes like Derrick Thomas, Tony Gonzalez, or Tyler Thigpen. I mean the guys who only achieved greatness in our collective imagination. The guys who became legends without actually doing anything legendary. The guys whose names live on in our hearts and our hearts alone.

They are the folk heroes of ChiefsPlanet.

Who, in your opinion, is the greatest of them all?

Some candidates:

Rich Scanlon: Emerging from the shadowy, mysterious region known as Europe, he tantalized us (well, mostly the Roys) with the promise of salvation, everlasting joy, and decent linebacker play. He ended up providing us with none of those things, though he did get a few special teams tackles, I think.

Bobby Sippio: A man of humble indoor beginnings, Robert "Bobby" Sippio took River Falls by storm with his unique blend of middling talent and decent size. Though he was often confused by the tremendous length of the field, he offered a glimmer of hope to fans who had an eye for talent and/or an HBO subscription. He even made the 53 man roster, but was cut in favor of Tyler Thigpen, who as we all know went on to accomplish great things.

Ricky Stanzi: There is still some hope that noted jingoist Ricky Stanzi will actually get a chance to lead our Chiefs to the promised land. But until he actually manages to get on the field, his imaginary legend will continue to grow. Will he, like Robin Hood, steal from the rich (Matt Cassel, by killing him) to give to the poor (the Chiefs fanbase, by winning a fucking playoff game)? Or will he merely linger on the bench as a fading beacon of hope, a whispered promise of what could have been? Only time will tell.

Contribute your nominations below.

Dan Williams-signed a HUGE contract-sprained his toe, put his helmet on One time and retired without ever going out on the field again.

Trezelle (the Gazelle) Jenkins-1st round bust spent more time blocking the sun with his fat gut than defenses.

Junior (Spithood) the Big Samoan spent more time fighting in bars and spitting on cops then making tackles.

Ryan Simms- 1st round Mega Bust-showed up fat as a whale and proved theTin Man on Wizzard of Oz had more heart.

All three of these players came with High expectations and whimpered out of town.

These are all merely busts. A bust has high expectations, justified by a successful college career and a high draft slot. A folk hero has no such pedigree, and his expectations come not from hype but from wishful thinking.

I bet R-Kal Truluck had a following.He did indeed. He put up some ridiculous stat in a preseason game like 3 or 4 sacks and demonstrated the quickest first step off the snap that Chiefs fans had seen since Derrick Thomas. That made him an instant fan favorite.

Hell, Vermeil surprised people and actually kept him around for a couple seasons. Even then, people were pissed that Truluck was only in a backup role with the team. The guy was going to be the missing piece on the Chiefs defense, propelling us to a Super Bowl after we lost to the Colts in 2003.

Then we traded his ass to the Packers. Heh.

Ugh. Rough times. That was around the same period as Rich Scanlon too, I think.

Looks like Steve Maneri is climbing the list, based on the Dallas Clark thread.

Something I love about this place is the way we build up certain players to the point where they become mythological figures. And I don't mean true on-the-field heroes like Derrick Thomas, Tony Gonzalez, or Tyler Thigpen. I mean the guys who only achieved greatness in our collective imagination. The guys who became legends without actually doing anything legendary. The guys whose names live on in our hearts and our hearts alone.

They are the folk heroes of ChiefsPlanet.

Who, in your opinion, is the greatest of them all?

Some candidates:

Rich Scanlon: Emerging from the shadowy, mysterious region known as Europe, he tantalized us (well, mostly the Roys) with the promise of salvation, everlasting joy, and decent linebacker play. He ended up providing us with none of those things, though he did get a few special teams tackles, I think.

Bobby Sippio: A man of humble indoor beginnings, Robert "Bobby" Sippio took River Falls by storm with his unique blend of middling talent and decent size. Though he was often confused by the tremendous length of the field, he offered a glimmer of hope to fans who had an eye for talent and/or an HBO subscription. He even made the 53 man roster, but was cut in favor of Tyler Thigpen, who as we all know went on to accomplish great things.

Ricky Stanzi: There is still some hope that noted jingoist Ricky Stanzi will actually get a chance to lead our Chiefs to the promised land. But until he actually manages to get on the field, his imaginary legend will continue to grow. Will he, like Robin Hood, steal from the rich (Matt Cassel, by killing him) to give to the poor (the Chiefs fanbase, by winning a ****ing playoff game)? Or will he merely linger on the bench as a fading beacon of hope, a whispered promise of what could have been? Only time will tell.

Contribute your nominations below.

Boomer Grigsby for sure!

I heard he was shipped off because he's as dumb as a bag of rocks and he has weepy vagina issues. I don't know though. The guy that did it is a real dumbass himself.

I don't think we had any folk hero types this year, did we? That's how bad this season has been: we weren't even able to invent something to be hopeful about.
