A hard working military man in the Coast Guard stationed in Alaska that loves Chiefs football since he was a kid...it's my favorite past-time and being surrounded by either Seattle fans or (strangely enough) Miami fans I always got my team, even when they don't do good, to pick up my spirits. Go Chiefs!!!

Ricky Stanzi could be rising up the ranks | ProFootballTalk
This backup QB battle is getting national media attention now...
Chat wrap: Down on San Diego? - AFC West Blog - ESPN
I like the question asked about the Chargers...if you read Bill's answer, he doesn't really answer it, but just tells the guy not to look into people's expectations too much. That's not what they guy asked...lol
Twitter / WesWelker: I signed my tender today.
Hopefully Bowe can follow suit and work on the new season with the rest of his teammates in OTA's and let his agent handle the business end of things.
AFC West Blog - ESPN
Getting some AP love, especially for BJ Kissel! Good to read stuff like this on a prominent site like ESPN.
Ryan Clady appears to be regressing | ProFootballTalk
Love seeing things falling apart on the Donkey's...especially on Manning's blind-side. He REALLY should've thought of coming to K.C. or face being crushed and beaten to death by Tamba Hali and Justin Houston...the stuff nightmares for QB's are made of.
Chase Daniel reflects on his status as Saints’ No. 1 quarterback | ProFootballTalk
Not Chiefs related but good to see some love for a former Mizzou QB. He says all the right things and I hope someday he gets that starting job...
AFC West draft grades: Chiefs clean up again; Broncos gamble - NFL.com
Don't know if this was posted already...if so, then go ahead and delete it...if not, enjoy another draft grade of the AFC West!
Jake Long could be on the outs in Miami | ProFootballTalk
Very interesting if true...what do you all think?
2012 mock draft, take four | ProFootballTalk
Wow...look who they have us taking at #11. I really don't know what to say about it, but, for some reason I can't argue with it. I just see it happening if we trade back and get some more picks. What do you all think?
Quick Question...
Did we switch blocking schemes from zone-blocking to power-blocking? I never read anything on that and if it's true then can someone pass on the link to the source that says that? I read on Profootballtalk about the signing of Eric Winston and they said the slight concern is Eric leaving the zone-blocking scheme he did in Houston to the power scheme that Kansas City uses...I don't know, but I don't think thats right...
Mike Tolbert will still visit the Chiefs - AFC West Blog - ESPN
So Mike Tolbert is still coming to K.C. for a visit...if getting both Hillis AND Tolbert...that's a dynamic backfield!
Manning is "making it up as he goes" | ProFootballTalk
Everyone is getting pissed off that Kansas City hasn't asked him to come visit yet...but maybe it's because Pioli knows that Peyton is just making it up as he goes and nothing is really planned too far ahead. We can jump in at any time...it's a good read to explain the likely actions of what's going on in Peyton's camp.
Burfict says he’s "misunderstood" | ProFootballTalk
He can say some good things...not great, but good things....but is there some truth to all this and can he pick up his game and play outstanding in the NFL and be a steal in the draft for KC? I know a lot of us were big on him early on, but maybe there's more to the guy than we originally thought and can be coached up by one of the best, coach Gibbs, and have an amazing career in Red and Gold? I guess we'll find out come draft day...
Question
I am away from any television so does anyone know where I can watch the Chiefs vs. Packer's game? Is there a site that might have it or even a replay? I don't have money so just the free sites please....thanks again!

It's good to see Mike Cox getting some work.
Week 7 inactives - ESPN
Right up top is Kansas City vs. Oakland and it looks like Baldwin will be suiting up and playing...or at least suiting up in Heremy Horne's place. I want to see what Baldwin will add to the three B's already out there with Bowe, Breaston, and Battle...hopefully we upgrade with Baldwin to become...THE KILLER B'S!! Unstoppable!!!!
Seahawks shopping Aaron Curry | ProFootballTalk
Maybe we can pick him up as another ILB to step up behind Belcher or take over for DeMario when his contract is up and spot DJ on some plays...just a thought.
It's now a fight...
I live in Florida and don't get to watch the games every week, so when Directv was showing a free preview weekend for NFL Sunday Ticket I pounced on it to have a chance of watching this and I got embarrassed just sitting in the same room with my wife who is not a football fan, so hearing her cynicism all game just hurt worse. Afterwards we had to finish up our grocery shopping and I was too embarrassed to wear my Chiefs shirt just walking through the grocery store.
After we got home I thought about it and I have to believe the team was embarrassed as well, and I mean well beyond the quotes that the players said. I know Todd Haley was embarrassed to be associated with the team, but I really liked that he not only excepted full blame for the performance but defended his players saying, "I believe in those guys, what they can do..." It says a lot about what he sees in them and it's well beyond their character and how they handle themselves off the field. There is so much I could say that I'm sure Todd is probably saying to the team in the film room today...or not saying but the players know he's thinking it.
I don't believe the players have tuned out Haley at all. I think they want to do right by their coach, but yesterday was not an example of that in performance, but reading the quotes from the players, they don't blame Haley for a crappy training camp or preseason. They believed in it and all felt that it got them as ready as they were the year before. This is something they didn't expect at all and something I'm sure Haley will make sure that things will be different and fixed. I like Todd Haley. I really do. I think he is a great evaluator of talent and does know the game to win. Everyone has a time when they fall. There's a saying in prized fighting..."Son, you've just been hit. Getting up is up to you". Our team and us as fans have just been hit. Getting up and finishing this fight with dignity and not slinking off quietly...that's up to us and our team, and I don't see us laying down quietly.

CHIEFS ANNOUNCE ROSTER MOVES
Some minor eye-brow raising, but nothing really surprising.
Heartland Health Practice Report: USO On Wheels
Sounds like the Chiefs had a special practice with soldiers from Whiteman AFB. Sounds like it was a pretty good practice!
CHIEFS SIGN 10 PLAYERS
Finally some news that our FA's are being signed.
Le'Ron McClain really a Free Agent right now?
Just wanted to post this up there...I was watching NFLN and they had on the right side of the screen of notable free agents and what team they were with in 2010 and the team they joined in 2011 and it said that Le'Ron McClain is apart of the 49er's this season. Is that true? Has anyone else heard about this? Any information we can find on this would be great, because I would LOVE to see McClain here in KC helping us run for championship.
Latest Brees e-mail suggests full free agency could start Tuesday | ProFootballTalk
"Free Agency - It now looks like free agency will begin at noon on Tuesday and it will be open free agency. There will be no 3 day grace period for teams to sign their own players. It will be open for anyone to sign anywhere.
According to Drew Brees, free agency this year is going to be the craziest fire-sale in League history. I don't know if this is true or not, but if it is than get ready for the craziest and fastest FA season. EVER!

Earlier Brees e-mail listed open issues as of Saturday | ProFootballTalk
As to the minimum cash spend, Brees writes that "we want to force owners to spend a minimum percentage of the cap every year in cash." Brees adds, "We cannot have teams like KC spend only 67% of the cap like they did in 2009. It doesn’t matter how high the cap is if they are only going to spend that much. So with a minimum in place, it requires all teams to be at or above that minimum. More money in players pockets."
Did classy Drew Brees actually bash KC for spending wisely? I really don't know what to make of this...what do you all think?
Players could report by Wednesday; start of free agency under discussion | ProFootballTalk
This is good news! I can't wait for free agency and see who the Chiefs pick up to keep our spot at the top of the AFC West!
NFLPA* to players: We will meet again on Monday to discuss our options | ProFootballTalk
This is getting ridiculous! If the players have no sense of urgency to get this deal done or face losing millions of dollars than they're saying it's worthless to be a fan. I don't care if they come out and say that the League passed an agreement that they haven't negotiated, then fine...but from what everyone's saying its the right thing, they just want to take their time and make everyone sweat it out...including themselves. God forbid anyone playing pro football work on a weekend outside of the season!
Mort: Players vote expected on Friday | ProFootballTalk
With all the negativity floating around about the owners pulling the rug out from under the players, apparently they are working through the night to see what they could fix and take a vote sometime tomorrow. I hope this is true.
Chiefs stadium workers losing key benefit of employment | ProFootballTalk
Telling the guys working out in the freezing cold of the season that the only benefit worth having of watching the Chiefs game for free is being cut...that's just heartless and someone should tell Clark Hunt so!
Making Monday Night Football
I just wanted to tell you guys that ESPN was shooting the intro of Monday NIght Football at my school in Winter Park, FL with Hank Williams Jr. as the center point! There was a multitude of football fans of all kinds...but I was one of the few Chiefs fans to rep our great team. Our division was well represented with several Faiders, Light Bulbs, and Donkey fans all around, as well as Dolphins, Steelers, Packers, Pats, Bucs, Jags, Panthers, Browns, Seahawkes, Saints...you name them, there were a dozen fans to rep their team. I could name the Chiefs fans at the shoot on one hand out of over 200+ extras. I had to make sure that I made ourselves known with energy, enthusiasm, and the classic tomahawkchop so everyone knows that the Kansas City Chiefs are everywhere...even on a MNF shoot! I was in a couple places for the shoot...right in front of Hank and the dancing girls, and also on the high platform behind the brass section standing around Packers and Steelers fans. I hope you see me or the couple other Chiefs fans rounding out the crowd. I am doing the tomahawk chop so look for me and cheer on our Chiefs in Monday Night Football! GO CHIEFS!!!!

"Do you know what grinds my gears?" - with Chris Miller
I'm sure most of us have seen the Family Guy episode where Peter Griffin held a segment on their local news of "You Know What Grinds my Gears?" and I have seen a few people post such things on here following in those same footsteps. Well, now it's my turn...
