I think it is as reasonable to be optimistic about Dorsey, rather than pessimistic.

I think both are reasonable.

Dorsey has never been a GM before. To place in trust in him, you are essentially trusting a complete unknown. There's nothing wrong with that. There's also nothing wrong with the opposite opinion.

History justifies my opinion. You can deny it all you want but you'd be wrong.

You aren't judging them but you are saying that you have no hope whatsoever in anything that they do or say? Uh... I think that's called "judging."

History does not justify your position. You are merely a pessimist.

I agree.

Judgement is something that occurs based on the evidence of the past. Dorsey has no past. By definition, I'm not judging him.

As for whether or not I have hope, I don't have much hope for the CHIEFS. Dorsey is a somewhat innocent bystander, unfortunately. But I never said I have no hope in anything they do whatsoever. I like several of the moves they've made.

I'm just not hopeful they, or anybody else associated with the Chiefs, will ever win a Super Bowl.

Want a second tier beast? TJ Ward signed for under 6/yr
Want a fantastic value? How about Clemons for dirt cheap...

When we are wishing we had more playmakers on offense, just remember how we didn't close the deal with Sanders and Desean Jackson signed for only 8/yr

When Jeff Allen still sucks, just remember we could have signed Evan Dietrich Smith for dirt cheap and moved Hudson to left guard.

IF you think we are truly a DeSean Jackson, jairus Byrd, and Dietrich Smith away from winning a Super Bowl in 2 or 3 years. Because your suggestion that we can get those guys and also rebuild for three years from now just because the cap is increasing is a huge stretch.

I think those guys make us better. But not so much that I am banking on that roster to win us a Super Bowl in an ultra small window.

Looks like you should call one for yourself.

Christ, don't people know how to discuss anything anymore?

Seems like conversations can't go 5 minutes without shit like this. :shake:

Then don't read it.

I would have thought you better than trying to squash other people's opinions.

Hell, I didn't know that constantly stating you have no faith whatsoever that anyone in the Chiefs organization has the skill or desire to ever win a Super Bowl was classified as discussion.

Months? ??? Try years

I mostly just skim for for a good rant or funny quips.
