Holy ****ing shit

Yeah a guy staring down a half year suspension and damaging the chiefs shield who came damn close to prison wasn't told specifically to lay low. It's really no big deal that just a few weeks later he's out at a bar at 2am.

I know you're better than this. And that you know Clark and Reid are not pushovers who stand for this. Which is why i find it puzzling you can't grasp the gravity not of what rashee did, but his total violation of trust to their authority

Literally everything in that statement is unverified speculation/projection.

LMAO

His suspension most likely will be served in 2025 after legal proceedings. The only way he probably sits this year if there is video evidence of him breaking the jaw of the photographer and he is put on the commissioners exempt list.

Do you really really think Clark and Andy didn't have a conversation with rashee or that they're pushovers?

It is yet to be seen what rashees involvement was in the assault. But he should not have been there at all unless by some miracle we found out he was the only person on thwt club not drinking at 2am

As I said, FWIW, but also ... SSJ is not one to run with sensational "my sources say" stuff. He rarely pulls the "source" card ... probably because he doesn't have a lot of sources, at least not ones that dish dirt. He's also a huge fanboy. That's his place at the station. So he's not looking to tear down the team at every turn.

His DPD source may be FOS, we'll see.

A co-worker this morning ribbed me, asking "Have any other Chiefs gotten arrested since we last talked?"

I indignantly informed him that it was only ONE Chief who keeps getting arrested. :harumph:

Chiefs shield lol

Buddy they had a player kill his gf and himself and people quit talking about it like a week later. Enough with the Patriot way bullshit

These are some Facebook takes from Zilla but at least he's keeping them under a 1000 words for the most part

This is why when you hear "character issues" in the draft, teams care about it.

It's also why we should really appreciate Pat and Travis and Chris Jones. They're elite players with elite character traits.

That's rare.

Travis partied/drank like crazy in college almost got him kicked off the Bearcats per Travis.

Nah. I’d say we’ve got some of those guys in the 2022 draft. Also some others that are good players like Pacheco, Chenal and Watson etc.

Except that Chris Jones is a total sex offender after whipping his cock out in public. And Travis is a party frat boy who makes jerk-off gestures at refs and fights his teammates in practice.

And Pat Mahomes has a dad bod and a weird voice and his brother is super gay. So....yeah.

I think we need to just expect that Rice won't be there day one and plan accordingly.

Chiefs security probably writing a bunch of checks to ensure videos don’t end up in public eye.

What a disappointing development.

Hope the kid makes sone serious life choices for the better.

You can't exactly discipline a guy who kills himself. Again this isn't about rashee committing a crime. He already did that and while I refuse to make excuses (unlike some who act like just anybody is street racing at 115 mph and then fleeing from accidents), I have always had zero issue with working him back in. I've rooted for plenty of questionable players before.

I have way less tolerance for people who don't learn their lesson and don't take this seriously. Especially for guys like Clark and Andy who everyone knows are more than just staff, they're family to these guys. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. That isnt just a character issue, that's entitlement and we gotta smack that oit of him real fast

Another ‘case in point’ that supports nothing good happens after 2am.

He did get kicked off for weed. Jason helped him get back on.

And on draft day he swore on his brothers life he wouldnt act a fool and make reid regret the pick. Travis has talked in his podcast about the times Reid has terrified the living shit out of him when hes slipped up. Andy is the best in the biz in letting his players be themselves while also keeping them in line. He's also forgiving to those who at least try

What does it say about reids leadership that people think he's not capable of keeping rashee in line. I have every confidence that Reid is doing it right and rashee knows exactly what's expected of him and just gave zero shits.

Except CJ and Travis both had character concerns. Chris more so for being lazy/taking plays off. But we don’t get either where we drafted them if there were no concerns.

It just proves the draft is somewhat of a crap shoot. Some guys can grow up, and can handle the fame. And some simply cannot

A mysterious vehicle showed up at our car dealership last night. This morning my boss asked me if I checked the trunk for weed, guns, or Rashee Rice! LOL

Damn. thought this kid was straight edge.

They should be planning as if he's not going to be able to be counted on until proven otherwise. I don't care if he only ends up getting 8 games, I'm worried about the dumb shit he might do next. To pull this right after the street racing bullshit when you know he got reprimanded from just about everyone in the organization shows not just a lack of intelligence, but a serious lack of commitment overall. Save me with the "he's young" bullshit. This is clearly a bigger issue.

Obviously you don't cut him, but as far as I'm concerned I'd be looking at other options long term and if Rice ends up not being a dipshit and can contribute the rest of his rookie deal, all the better, but I'm not betting on it if I'm KC. Especially not when we're going for a 3-peat. Hope this latest issue makes them pick someone up.

Thank you for some sanity in this thread. I think you still give him a chance to improve himself, but agree it is very very thin ice right now

Pretty sure this one was an accident and he had a good reason for racing that car on the highway.

Rice is actually a victim of outdated laws meant to prevent our right to street racing and assault people with cameras.

It's a shame the first WR Veach really nails is acting like a moron. I'm honestly amazed how much of this happens. I know they're young guys with money but my God.

TBH there's plenty of guys who've messed up and come around and made good. No reason that can't be Rice. If we got him later in the draft because of character concerns it could conceivably turn out great. But it's got to happen now hasn't it.

I said this in the other thread, he was simply trying to prove a point to the city of Dallas that their freeway lanes are far too narrow to drive safely. I think he did a great job making his case. I actually think he'll end up getting the key to the city TBH.

I don't disagree that looking at other options is a reasonable move. Staylor mentioned Treylon Burks and as a young power slot he could be very good imo, if the Titans have any desire to trade.

Not Rashee’s fault that this photographer obviously has a glass jaw.

Agreed. He isn’t just innocent. He’s a hero.

He could’ve moved instead of just getting punched.

Rashee shouldn’t be punished for someone else’s stupidity.

I wouldn’t blame a bus driver if I laid down in the street at a bus stop and got run over.

yeah people are talking about the photographer getting in his face and stuff and maybe he instigated it but how many paparazzi has Kelce, who is dating maybe the most famous woman on the planet right now, gotten into physical altercations with?

Yet somehow in the entire lead up to that draft there was never character concerns brought up with Rice, we debated him, we read scouting reports, that shit was nowhere to be found.

People bringing it up now seems like revisionist history because where were these reports heading into that draft? I literally never saw one or even saw one talked about.

The only thing that did was make the fan base way more worried about having a clean image.

I think all of this is just a big misunderstanding

If Rice is suspended, he should bang the drum Week 1 imho

That's all any of this grandstanding is about. Some people have the need to feel good about the player's morality in relation to their own.

No, it was far more than that.

A huge black cloud was hanging over the organization. Of course, they were smart to clean house after that season. And that turned things around.

Wouldn't this make his neck tattoo even more cheesy?

I say we take donations for Zilla to go to photography classes...

There's never been a good looking neck tatoo...

Definitely, so does having a giant butt plug on your front lawn.

Maybe if he legally changes his last name to Noodle they won't suspend him at all!

It's a different guy altogether at that point and it really shows a commitment to leaving the old Rashee behind.

After disgracing the Norma Hunt patch, Rice must commit seppuku

That's pretty accurate.

Even Cody Rhodes?

i didnt expect him to F up again. I wouldn't have been surprised if Toney did something like this. Toney is a thug, Rice never gave me that impression. hopefully the truth comes out and its not that serious.

As I've said before, anybody remotely paying attention to the Kareem Hunt stuation should have learned their lesson then.

The Chiefs "did the right thing" and cut Hunt, and still got shit on by the media, while another competitor and former GM scooped him up for peanuts, and they were applauded for doing so.

It's all a bunch of horseshit.

Who do we believe has the higher IQ here -

Toney or Rashee?

Toney by all accounts is much smarter than he looks and acts, and he hasn't gotten into any legal trouble since beating in the NFL, so I might have to go with him.

It's just completely stupid that people care, dude is not your friend. It sucks that he'll get suspended but as long as he's back for the end of the year and the playoffs, oh well.

At this rate, he’ll run out of foods in a year though.

He’ll be Rashee Quinoa by training camp.

Wow, looking at it like that makes it really, really sad...

Travis was very immature when he first came into the league. He's def come a long way.

However, Rice just entered the league. So that's an unfair comparison. Give him some time. People make mistakes. We don't know if Travis never drove drunk in his drinking days, he may have just never got caught.

This assault charge doesn't seem too bad. Plenty of players have done worse and still had successful careers. Let's wait and see what happens w Rice but hopefully these are just immaturity and he will grow out of it.

This kind of shit happens every single day in college and gets swept under the rug. Consistently...

It is my understanding that we didn't get rid of Hunt for the criminal acts, we got rid of him for lying about it to Clark Hunt. If so, as long as Rashee is straight with the Chiefs about what happened, he could be kept in the hopes that he can be rehabilitated (I hope).

Yep, Kamara beat the shit out of a guy on video and got 3 games.

No the lesson to be learned from Kareem hunt is that despite major scrutiny and claiming he was going through anger management, he lied, went to public drunk ragers and kept getting into fights. He went to Cleveland where he shockingly got into another damn fight. How are people ignoring this? Kareem had major anger issues that never went away. The browns picked him up for peanuts and Dorsey pissed off a lot of people in the league for it. Unsurprisingly the same organization that traded the moon for a rapist

And just like Kareem hunt, rashee is a guy who should have a shred of common sense to lay low. And instead despite the harshest of NFL penalties staring at him he goes out drinking (and potentially causing problems).

How the hell is the lesson in this that the chiefs should just brush this shit off versus recognizing both of these guys were given a second chance and completely blew it (allegedly).

Because at the end of this, no one will care?

I think Rashee needs a phone call from Cris Carter.

This guy needs to sever ties with his homies back in Dallas and grow the **** up before he ends up in a more grave situation.

If he's guilty of this, his suspension is easily going to get a lot longer.

Am I on my own here or is it not surprising that an NFL player would start fights or punch a guy? Hs the overton window moved so much that football players starting fights is now some horrible crime?

Didn't T0dd C0llins use to start fights with bouncers at bars like every year at training camp?

Throw the book at him, let the legal system take its course, if and when he's allowed to play football, get him back on the field.

The NFL is full of degenerate morons with tons of athletic ability.

Don't start clutching your pearls because you got one on your team. If he's allowed to play, it needs to be here.

Most guys who run as violent as Kareem Hunt does have anger issues. You got to take the good w the bad sometimes.

Some of you want to watch a violent sport then expect all these guys to be perfect off the field. That's never gonna happen.

At the end of the day - this is football not ballerina dancing. I think the league understands that which is why they usually don't come down too harshly on a lot of these guys.

Long as Rice learns from these two incidents he should be fine..

Rather unfortunate in this situation that Mahomes seems to do most of his off season work in Texas. Rice needs to get as far away from his chuckle**** friends as possible.

We all have idiot friends but we're not all idiots. FFS man you're young and you got money - slide a few thumbs one way or the other and do some cardio with a gal who has daddy issues.

FTFY

With friends like those, who needs enemies?

It isn't a morality thing. Its entitlement. If barely dodging jail, almost killing someone and almost throwing your entire career away while letting your team down with a potential half year suspension doesnt put the fear of god in him, what will? It's one thing to get a DUI. If your boss lets you off the hook, I'm guessing you won't show up to a bar with an ankle monitor the next week.

If that entitlement shit doesn't go away he's gonna keep thinking the rules don't apply to him. He obviously doesn't understand the consequences for his actions. Kareem hunt claimed to be going through all the steps and yet was still drinking and getting in trouble with the same damn friends. Desean Jackson kept getting away with more and more shit until he became uncoachable and despised in the locker room.

I am rooting for him to get his shit together. But we don't need to make excuses for him. This doesn't just go away because he does time with the nfl and gets reinstated. We need no bullshit proof that he's ready to turn himself around

Mecca, speaking of grandstanding, how many times you gonna repeat the same shit over and over?


Look in the mirror.

Why can't one of his ****off friends assault people for him? Like goddamn you lazy ass bums, you see somebody get in Rashee's face and you know he wants to punch him? You ****ing do that shit. Be a friend for ****'s sake. The money tree is gonna shed all it's leaves and then you're not gonna be able to go to the club and pop bottles anymore unless you start taking the fall for some of these bad mistakes he's making.

Kareem kept drinking and hanging out with the same guys. Sure he can still have incidents but that shit is avoidable. Just like rice not going to the clubs at 2am and hopefully not hanging with the same degens who got him in trouble in the first place.

When tyreek got here it was widely believed he was spending a lot of time with his kid playing video games. Thats how you learn from this shit.

It appears that if a player ever wants out of a contract with the Chiefs, it's fairly trivial to achieve (assuming Clark really is THAT stupid).

Hunt has only been suspended once. So he has avoided getting into trouble in the NFL since that incident..

The story is far from over w Rice. He's young and has his whole career ahead of him. He can bounce back from this. Will he? That remains to be seen but I don't think it's fair to say he is going to be Riggs or Aaron Hernandez just yet.

lol What was he doing at the club on Monday night anyways?

Saddest day possible to be caught at the night club, especially in Dallas lolololol

It was basically late Sunday night, so Cinco de Mayo. Still reeruned.

He's right, though. Are we supposed to pretend that we cared about how Trav acted during college and through the first years or his NFL career?

I'm sure as hell glad we took a chance on (and kept) a troubled but talented player like him.

Is there a way to keep him off an active roster but retain his rights like the non football related injury list?

I'm not disagreeing but someone fix the skipping record please.

I need to look it up to be certain, but I'm pretty sure deactivating a player keeps him off the field and contractually bound to the team.
