Priest Coming Back??
 

Just heard on 610 sports Priest is going to announce his retirement or reunion this week! Sorry if repost.

Huh?

FAX

Print 'em.

Retirement or reunion?

I believe Peter King is the one in the middle.

Considering it's been a couple of years, I would say it's a reunion if he comes back wouldn't you?

Lets just go ahead and call it RETIREMENT. He was just hangin' around collecting his checks.

LET THE KOLBY SMITH ERA BEGIN!!!!

Good one jaz

jesus christ. enough of this crap.

does anyone with half a brain actually believe Priest will play again?

Nice Judas Pic- I have a coat just like that, but it has been a bit hot to wear it-lol

I think you've got another thing coming.

Oh no! LJ's payday is in jeopardy! :banghead: [/GoChiefs]

GTFO and STFO Priest.

Priest is in Mexico cultivating a nice crop of bud-Ricky Williams and Randy Moss are helping him.

He won't be back.

But he IS still taking hits.

Retunion.

Priest gets half time Hand waving goodbye at Arrowhead
owners box for some Nachos

He'll be here long enough to pick up his check.

Priest is the reason you and half of this board are even here.

no wonder players don't stay with teams...most fans could give a crap about them or what they've done...

I would love to see him at least activated for one game, so we can show some respects for what he has done, one more time.

on the field no one played harder or took more licks. I love the threads. Keep on reminding me what a pounding he took but still came back for me

I hope he comes back to backup LJ

I hope he comes back so LJ will come down from his unreasonable contract demands.

He's retiring.

The Chiefs must've gave him all the money he was supposed to get contractually, so he's retiring now.

That was pretty harsh, but I'm just tired of all this speculation. I suppose I shouldn't blame Priest unless he is instigating it.

I don't think that would change any thing when it comes to the deal LJ wants.

Even if he is, that would appear to indicate that a return is possible, and if it is retiremnt, he deserves that spotlight also.

Your highlight of him is still your best work, IMO.

Thanks Steve, but if he returned I'd be pretty pissed. The team has moved on. There's no place for Priest here. It'd be a bad move.

I wish Priest the best at whatever he decides to do. He was fun to watch.

Are you confident in the back-ups to carry the load if LJ holds out?

If Preist says he can play, I have to give him the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise.

Hey stranger!!!

hope this finds you well..

You can never, ever have too many running backs. I don't care where they come from or who they are.

I have zero confidence in Priest. If LJ doesn't play for some reason I'd rather see Kolby Smith and Bennett out there.

I disagree with the notion of being pissed if he came back, but I do agree the team has moved on. His running style today is not conducive to the offense we run now. The ONLY positive would be if Herm sticks with what he said about the offense changing to where our RB's are going to be legitimate downfield options in the passing game. Priest might givel a good Eric Metcalf impersonation, IF (and I mean IF) he is healthy.

fair enough. I just don't agree.

yup, as PH showed us, backs are one play away from starting.

Just wondering if you have ever seen Kolby Smith play. I really don't think he's as good as some Chiefs fans think he is.

He's younger and faster than Priest. And healthier.

I'm not expecting Priest to come back. But that said, if I needed to get one yard and my life depended on it, there's not a player I'd pick over Priest Holmes.

I believe the converse to be true as well.

Ahhh man, you know he would suck without Big willie roaf out there leading the sweep.

.

IF, . . . if he returns. I have every ounce of faith that he'll return in as good a form as we've ever seen him. And you don't 'move past' a Priest Holmes hitting on all cylinders.

You know and i know, that doesnt mean he's better then Priest. I dont care if he comes back or not, but i want the best 53 on the team. If Priest is one of them 53, then i am all for it.

Oh, NOW I get what the whole 'sucking LJ's schlong' schtick is about.
This may be the stupidest post in the history of CP.

Yeah, LJ is just such a great pass-blocker, we don't need a third down back, do we?

Priest isn't going to come back just to hurl himself in front of linebackers. I doubt he's coming back anyway, so this discussion is moot.

I bet he's at least as good as Jesse Haynes...

Then trade his ass to Dallas or Green Bay. If Priest is in the fold we have a group of RBs that can handle a year or two of RBBC. If that trade brings in another usable RB so much the better.

Not if he has another year or two left in the tank.

Does he have Priest's vision and patience?

Amen.

IF Priest comes back, he will do blocking as well as running. LJ won't do both.

It is irrelevant. Priest is not coming back.

As good as Haynes was, his running totally paled compared to Rich Scanlon's.

I wonder if he's lost his burst...

Oh yeah?

I really wish Priest would just go ahead and announce his retirement. I know there is no hope he is coming back.

You have to be joking.

But had you shown a film of Marcus Allen I might have agreed.

Priest has long since forgotten about football. He has only not retired so he doesn't have to pay any of the money back. He ignores Kansas City and doesn't even come into to town to pick up his checks, just has them delivered to his house in Texas. We won't ever see him back in KC again.

That's the first thing I thought of. Dude had knack sp? for that one yard. Priest had a nose for the endzone. That toss to Priest to Roafs side wtih Richardson lead blocking was money in the bank every single time.
