I only remember Tynes's girlfriend.

Technically I was calling him an amalgam of Palko and Thigpen. The Tylers.

Why? Is it because you are a Chase Daniel's fan or a Mizzou fan that thinks it's hilarious that the Chief's signed chase Daniels?

I was at that game.

I have nothing else to add.

3m per for Chase Stanzi and 34 overall for Alex Smith.

I love this.

It's the Alex Smith trade that bursts my bubble. I kind of like the Chase Daniel lottery ticket. I would love it had we had only made this move at QB and drafted someone instead. Alex Smith was the worst option to me. Give me Foles, Freeman or whatever. I really hope Reid makes us all look like dipshits, but then again it's going to take a Jesus Christ like performance. I don't believe they have their QB that starts 2014 year on this roster right now. The only saving grace I see is I don't see them being stubborn about it like Pioli. Then again it's the Chiefs so who knows?

He's the only quarterback on a team I've rooted for since Trent Green that doesn't ****ing suck, that's why. Because I was at the 2007 KU/MU game, and it was the greatest ****ing thing ever. Because I think he has the ability to win in this league, and I've always wanted to see him wearing Chiefs red, and I never thought it would happen, until it actually did. Because it's my dream to see Chase Daniel win a Super Bowl in Kansas City, and the first step of that happening is him actually being on the team.

Maybe he'll never amount to shit. Maybe he'll never see the field. Maybe he does and pisses down his leg. But he's here, and I'm ****ing thrilled. And I really don't give a shit how many Geno Smith ballwashers are annoyed over it.

Tynes's girlfriend reminded me of SimplyRed for some reason, heh.

Yep.

Alex Smith is literally to me exactly the same move as trading for Cassel 4 years ago.

Yes, he's maybe a slightly better player, but we've once again given up a 2nd round pick, this time for a guy literally nobody wanted in free agency a year ago. Once again for a guy that can't operate a offense that leans in any way towards the pass. Another anchor that mandates a 550-carry RRbC mind-numbing ball-control/clock management offense that plays not to lose. Another anchor that guarantees continued playoff futility unless we have both the best running game and the best defense in the league, and even then it will be a close thing at best.

And it's absolutely head-scratching, because none of that is what Andy Reid has done in the past.

I guess the hope is that he can turn Alex Smith into something he never has been, and was never projected to be coming into the draft.


Chase Daniel, on the other hand, I don't really care one way or the other about. It seems like a waste of 3 million, but it's not my money.

This move is like trading in the color TV for a mystery box on Let's Make A Deal. The contestant just spent a lot of effort winning the TV in an elaborate game, so it stands to reason that the box probably isn't anything exceptional that would be better than the TV. It's too small to fit a car under the box. Sure, it might be something cool like a trip or a motorbike. It's possible that it might be a downgrade like a new washer/dryer. But at this stage, the color TV is very very nice. Take it for ****'s sake. More than likely, there's probably zonk under the box.

Chase Daniel is the mystery box. We're giving up a valuable color TV (trade down leverage, $10 million for a ****ing backup QB, the chance to use a mid-round draft pick as the developmental guy we all wanted when Reid was hired) for not a lot of possibilities that we'll get something better. It's POSSIBLE that there's a Kurt Warner under the box. It's more likely, however, that it's a ****ing Tyler Palko. It's probably just a lousy Graham Harrell that we don't know WTF to do with.

It's a puzzling and exceptionally stupid move that really makes me question if these two assholes in Reid and Dorsey know wtf they're doing at all.

Jesus, dude... you just got me all hyped up about this! Gonna be crazy to see how it works out. At the very worst, the preseason games just got a hell of a lot more interesting.

DITTO.

True.

I'll get to dust off the ol' #10 jersey a time or two.

So that's exciting...

Hopefully they keep Stanzi so we can have some awesome homer brawling in the stands.
