So he threw a bunch of frisbees 21 yards? Big deal, I could do that. The trick was getting them all to go to the same place like that.

Sometimes you need a top 5 player. If you know what you're doing in the draft you should never ever blow a top 5 pick. Carl blew that Sims pick but that was the player DV and Robinson wanted so it's just as much their faults. Hopefully whoever the next coach is has a better eye for talent.

This year for example, there's a DE Mario Williams, he's Julius Peppers esq. Now that's a player a team like ours could really use but we'll never come close to touching him.

Are people really saying we need to lose out when we are, in fact, 6-4? You need to turn in your Chiefs fan-card, QFT and GTFO. Please.

No, it doesn't apply to this year because we have a playoff shot. But like last year when the team basically was out of playoff contention by Week 5, couldn't you justify wanting to have a bad record?

Based on this and the fact the Chiefs have not had success in 35 years we are
DOOMED !!!!!

Ok so he can throw it the equal of 91mph. That's relevant how exactly?

It doesn't matter if you can throw it through a wall if the ball is nowhere near it's target.

Uh...we're talking about arm strength. Trent doesn't have a rag arm. Anyone that's not a moron knew that before this thread, but we're making sure everyone knows now.

That one was right on target, so what's your problem with Green?

Apparently some people can't understand the simple message relayed to them in a thread title, gc. Go figure.

I'm so sick of the "tanking games" BS.

Amen brother. :thumb: Tanking games is the equivelant of cheating in my book.

I can't find any reason for anyone who knows the Chiefs organization and Chiefs history to even consider this crap. Where is the pride? Play to win and let the chips fall where they may.

It's the same attitude that children and gamers have.

Children need to win. Sometimes they cheat each to do so.

"I saw you move your piece too many spaces!"
"Did not!"
"Did too!"
"DID NOT!!!"
"DID TOO!!!

Gamers want to win as well. They go to such lengths as to use cheat codes to get past difficult parts of a game.

It's all about instant gratification. They know nothing about enjoying the ride, even when the road has pot holes in it. They learn nothing from the shortcuts they take.

Exactly. Some people need to realize that the ride wasn't meant to be easy.
