I guess they didn't want Berry beating the shit out of our starters.

Well at least one out of every 7 passes he catches is a TD :shrug:

Arena Football 2 league???? WTF is that?


And he looks like a major douchebag. seriously. he does.

Lol. This warrents a thread. Headline should be "with many high quality FAs left, Chiefs break the bank for an arena league player. Super Bowl victory is imminent."

I can't help but wonder wtf they are thinking messing around with a midget Arena League player versus focusing on some quality NFL depth right now like McClain or the RB cut loose by Oakland that tore us up. Anyway, isn't it a little early in FA to be picking up camp fodder?

Interesting read on Manno. I doubt he makes the team but stories like this are one of the reasons I love football. He is an easy guy to root for.

Speaking of arena league WRs, I watched Bobby Sippio on NFL Network last Saturday night.

Not going to read some longass fluff piece about training camp fodder.

Of course not, we have so many other new additions to read up on.

Can you get me that list real quick

Kick/Punt Returner?

You make an excellent point.

Pioli has already missed out on most of the helpful players available.

So yeah, I guess he should get to work on building up the practice squad, this team is clearly ready to take a step forward.
