Who wears underwear on game day? That's gray sweatpants day!!

Even if the helmet's integrity isn't jeopardized by being slammed on the ground, though, I'd still rather not see a player do that. It's dangerous to folks in the immediate area and it doesn't do much to advance the helmet thrower's interests, while also being a bad example to kids and other folks. There's a lot of interpersonal violence out there in people's homes and elsewhere and I don't want to see Mahomes or any of my other favorite players reacting like that when things don't go their way. I get angry at shit, too, and yell about things, but that's not the way to be and I try to control myself.

...come to think about it, the main thing I yell about are NFL refs

I thought Mahomes had learned his lesson after violently removing his jacket in the playoff game against the Jaguars, but apparently he has a lot of growing up to do to treat these inanimate objects with the respect they deserve.

:LOL:

The Kansas City Chiefs are going to win the Super Bowl

bold to make this thread the morning after the dolphins have already lost 1 of the 2 they need to lose LMAO

Point taken. I'm probably being a little sillly worrying about the kids. In my defense, my title is professor of pediatrics, but really I'm just a statistics professor involved in lots of violence prevention research, among other things.

Doh! I didn't even realize that. I turned the game off after that second Titans turnover deep in their own territory. LOL on the Dolphins choking. They're frauds.

Part of what I love about Mahomes is that he's such a great role model for young athletes, because he combines great talent with an incredible competitiveness while being impeccably classy. He strayed a little from that on Sunday. I believe that he had some justification for it, given that the officials hadn't said or done anything about where Toney was lining up earlier in the game, when he was similarly offside, but he didn't need to be yelling like he was and he damn sure didn't need to be throwing his helmet, as those things are not meant to be slammed into the ground and become less safe--at least they were back in the old days when I played football and rode motorcycles, and I doubt they are much more survivable now.
On the other hand, if Mahomes is going to go off, I can sure understand and forgive him for doing it in the heat of the competitive moment. He's still my all-time favorite athlete and I hope that when I'm older, I'll be rooting for other great athletes who took after him.

I'm sure that your ability to forgive him means a lot to Mahomes. You and the rest of the pearl clutching crowd should feel free to fist yourselves.

It's such a crap shoot this year. Love it to be honest. Just need to play a bit cleaner and they can absolutely beat anybody.

I agree except I think we get the 2 seed and the 1 loses so the AFCCG is at Arrowhead again..

Just flipping some shit, I do get the concern overall in that if a kid is going to idolize an athlete, you don't want that athlete to come off as unhinged.
