I made a thread about the KC Star amplifying garbage.

Defend the honor of the chosen one.

The KC Star, like a ton of local papers now, is run by vulture capitalists. Ostensibly they buy struggling businesses to turn them around.

But often the incentives work out better for them to just bleed the company dry, while they enrich themselves the entire way down. Then they sell of the carcass for parts.

I feel sorry for the employees who work there and still care.

LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!

So did we find Tiger or Sandy or Mav's real name out?

What’s the KC Star? Never heard of it.

Opinion piece. No different than the trash you post here constantly.

After the Brooke Pryor fiasco I’m surprised Clark hasn’t banned them.

Glen Carbon is a St. Louis suburb.

You've amplified it more than the Star did.

The Star is dead media that you keep breathing life back into.

Thank god no one here is lame enough to click that shit.

Exactly. I never even think about the Star unless it is brought up on this site.

EXACTLY MY ****ING POINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THIS IS MY JUSTIFIABLY PISSED OFF POST ABOUT (name your subject) IN THIS THREAD

Reverend!

now you know, my brother in arms, penguinz...

you see a star in a coffee house, a mcdonalds, a barbershop, YOU TEAR IT UP! YOU THROW IT AWAY! YOU TRASH THAT TRASH!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Star's editorial board is filled with left-wing political activists. (This isn't political statement. It's fact. So before someone tells me not to bring up politics, how is that possible in this case?)

While it could be true, I'm not sure how it's relevant...

bet you anything those turds decide which letters get published

they're all anti-chiefs over the native American imagery, and they can all GET ****ED

Is there some left-wing conspiracy against black QBs that I'm not aware of?

Probably.

Unless they're attacking the white half of Mahomes!?

(*plot twist*)

Sometimes it’s best if you just do nothing. This would be one of those times.

POLITICS IN THE LOUNGE

There's a reason why the only significant discussion of the KC Star is in regard to what should be done with its derelict building

The KC Star hasn't been good since Ernest Hemingway left.

I clicked this thread thinking that they may have published an entirely fabricated hit piece about the locker room dynamic and what's in EB's contract. I guess that market is already cornered completely.

Mahomes is 27 years old. He very likely has a far different concept of what a newspaper is to what we old fossils here think. If he gives half a shit what's in any newspaper, it's probably only because his grandmother still reads one out of habit.

we must draw the line here clevelandbronco

this far...NO FURTHER

the chiefs see all and will deliver SWIFT RETRIBUTION to the evil kansas city star

Lol what? He's not Elroy ****ing Jetson. I think he knows exactly what a newspaper is and what it does.

So, have we decided who's going to send in the CP response?

They can't publish it dear

You sound like one of those old farts that thinks newspapers still matter in some important way.

Shit, if newspapers still mattered, the Chiefs organization should fabricate such letters and send them in regularly to keep Mahomes pissed and hungry. Bulletin board material and all that antique shit.

They do matter.

All you have to do is sign up for a $25 subscription and they'll tell you why, too.

A lot of people want Mahomes to fail the same way I wanted Brady/Manning to fail.

I'm saying a newspaper is a ****ing newspaper.

You're acting like Mahomes thinks a newspaper is a garbage disposal or some shit.

He has a different concept of what a newspaper is? WTF does that even mean? He's 27 ****ing years old. He's seen a newspaper before. Just because he's young doesn't make him a complete reerun.

He's a smart guy. I'll bet he also knows what a lawnmower is. And he probably thinks it cuts grass and shouldn't be used to wash the dishes!

and Walt Disney.

Will never click on the KC Star again.

Now ain't that a fun fact. I knew about Hemingway, and about how the style guide at the Star was the "best advice about writing I ever saw in my whole career", but I didn't know about Walt Disney.

My how the mighty have fallen.

Hemingway on the Star, over 100 years ago:

John Geimer Jewelry Company
26 South Meadow Lane, Glen Carbon, Illinois 62034
(618) 692-1497

Call this jackasses business and tell him how you feel. Don't waste all the anger in this thread.

you need to shoot the messenger in this case

I'm saying only that a newspaper is not to a 27 year old what it is to people of older generations.

TikTok is not to me what it is to my 20 year old.

It has nothing to do at all with his intelligence nor with landscaping tools and appliances.

Deberg threads pop.

Hope this helps -

Why are we still talking about this?

There was just a huge article about Mahomes on either ESPN or NFL all about how Mahomes was a team player and took a hometown discount SPECIFICALLY because he wanted them to be able to build a team around him.

This you?

worried im going to start haveing diarrhea soon . . .

Like quoting Knowmo's post, sometimes you have a responsibility to amplify the moron so we can all see them for who they are.

At least the writer of the letter put his name on it.

Pretty amazing that the Star would publish this, and that newspapers have fallen to the level of needing to trash their own city/celebrities to get clicks.

nope

There are times when the Kansas City Star deserves a good, "Burn Down the Star" thread.

This is not one of them.

Clay, You had to dig pretty deep into the Star trying to find this opinion letter and you knows better than to start this thread.

Now when DaFace adds some sound reasoning to the thread, you attack him.

Please stop!

This showed up on my yahoo home page. I did click to read it.

bastards. They knew what they were doing.

Even the biggest Chiefs hater would tell you Mahomes is anything but self-centered. Trash article by trash level journalism. The team should just revoke this bastard media's rights.

Then you'll be happy to know that the author of that letter to the editor doesn't have media rights.

Anyone else think this John Geimer fellow might be the ultimate Deberg revenge troll?

Send ridiculous letter to the editor.

Wait for Clay to find it and post it on CP.

Uproar ensues.

Deberg wins and chuckles in his mom's basement while eating Jello-O.

And I thought that the most pathetic media thing ever is how the Raiders beat writers gather their content from RF Discord.

How much TBell have you consumed in the past 24 hours?

None!!!!!

So.....thread starting privileges yanked? Banned to RR?

yes, the day when the star publishes absolute tripe about our QB is not one of those times

wtf man, seriously

the mods have assured me that John Geimer will be banned the instant he registers on this board

This is a problem

I wouldn't even use the star to wipe my ass if I was out of toilet paper

i would use your star

It’s stupid to post it…man.

This POS thing showed up in my Google News app. Shame on who ever allowed this thing to be published in the first place much less make it look like a legitimate article by adding the picture with a newspaper wrapper. The interwebs algorithms apparently are already broadcasting this shitty clickbait.

Probably got a boost from this thread, too.

**** the KC Star- they are worthless, biased and full of shit.

Actually, no. The Star is using it as click bait to try to get people to read their miserable paper---The Star itself posted it on Facebook.

I do not care that they published it....although it was not a particularly well written letter to the editor....but it shows a lack of character for them to try to use it to drum up business.

Shit like this is why no one trusts them anymore.

Why publish such garbage anyway though? That's no excuse for the KC Star.

Because the editorial board have an agenda.

And it does not stop at "engagement" for website visits.

well stated

we all know who is on the right side of history in THIS thread

That phrase needs to be a metaphorical Murano going down the street and we need to be the brick that brings the compact SUV to a halt.

Can we be done with Clay yet? This attention whoring is getting old.

Clay should be banned.

Can’t wait until Skip Bayless reports it. I wonder if the Sunday pregame shows will have it. Chiefs are in prime time.

you have abandoned your colors, and your captain

I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT SHIT SHOWING UP ANYWHERE ON GOOGLE NEWS FFS

Maybe this is the way they can finally take out bankruptcy and be done.
KC will not have a paper.

Great another Soggy Shane and his PeckerGnat with another hit piece.

Who would even buy this shit?
