They are coming for the chop too
The Kansas City Chiefs’ racist “Arrowhead Chop” has flown under the radar. Not anymore. The Kansas City Chiefs’ chant isn’t a tribute to people like me. It’s racist.

Clark’s gonna be pissed when they come for the beating of the drum after he spent a pretty penny to make that awesome drum deck

Ignore them. If you want to do the chop, do the chop.

Sometimes I hear it and think it’s kind of corny, but I do love hearing the chop during road games and hearing it at the Super Bowl was amazing.

The Missouri and Kansan Indians may not be happy with Jackson county anyway.

Who were the tribes they brought in a few years ago for input on the drum and what-not?

In fairness...the "chop" didn't do shit for the Chiefs in 50 years.

Half of everything is.
Mohawk carpet is next. Then anything with the word 'white' in it.

That article was clearly before the Super Bowl, so 6 months old?
Everyone has lost their minds and its so tiring. Not only the people writing these click bait opinions, but also the people screaming about how they are losing everything they love.

I never understood the logic in bringing back the horse and the drum. The first goal should be to protect the Chiefs name, and bringing in more native stuff just puts us more in the cross hairs.
The chop, I don't care that much. I've never felt comfortable doing it, but I don't see how you could realistically ban it. It's like when they tried to control crowd noise, it's just not going to work. |

fans will always do the chop. Whether the Chief's play the music, whether they bang the drum.
