"KANSAS CITY, MO—Dismayed Kansas City Chiefs personnel told reporters Monday that backup quarterback Brady Quinn had mistakenly received a copy of Arnold Lobel's children's picture book Frog And Toad Are Friends instead of the team's 54-page playbook. "Brady kept talking about how he spent hours each night poring over the book and memorizing the diagrams in it," Chiefs head coach Romeo Crennel said of the Caldecott Honor book, which is designated level two in the "I Can Read" series and is intended for "readers who are increasingly confident, but still need some help." "It wasn't until he started telling little stories in the huddle about coat buttons and ponds that we realized something was up. He does seem to have learned some important lessons about friendship from the book. He's more communicative on the field, and he's sharing the ball better, but he's much further away from being game-ready than we thought." At press time, Quinn was preparing for Sunday's season opener against the Atlanta Falcons by carefully studying footage from the second season of Yo Gabba Gabba!."

Matt Cassel: No, sir.

Haley: YOU?

Jamaal Charles: No.

Haley: No, WHAT?

Jamaal Charles: No, sir.

We got an e-mail yesterday from a guy who claims to work at the writers’ office for the show "30 Rock." He told us the the writers love the site and occasionally put up KSK posts in the writers’ room. While this is as likely to be true as the times we got e-mails from people relaying first-person accounts of Rex Ryan reading and enjoying Drew’s posts and the fact that Philip Rivers has read the site and hates us, we choose to believe it’s the God’s honest truth. So, to the folks from NBC currently reading: GIVE ME A JOB GIVE ME A JOB RIGHT NOW We appreciate the support.

Anyway, the guy passed along a comedy video that he directed about Chiefs defensive lineman Shaun Smith, he of the Brady Quinn punching and the Anthony Davis in-game groin grab.

Kansas City Chiefs

* Strength: Quarterback Matt Cassel feels satisfied whether receivers catch or drop his passes; easy schedule as team plays seven games in the CFL this season
* Weakness: Offense continues to struggle when trying to huddle up, with most of the players being overpowered and ending up on the ground
* Player To Watch: In need of a solid season to become a potential holdout, wide receiver Dwayne Bowe is finally trying a little
* Biggest Question: Will new offensive coordinator Charlie Weis actually explode after a big lunch?

Newest Free Agent: Me?

webby37 — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 23:38:45 -0000

Wuddup, Sactown, my name is Chris, and I'm currently a free agent in the NBA world. I'm from North-Central Kansas but am currently living in Taipei, Taiwan, serving as a missionary for my second of two years. I'm a huge NFL fan (specifically, of the Kansas City Chiefs), but I'm not a huge NBA fan, mostly because I don't have a rooting interest. I've been halfheartedly looking for a basketball franchise to support, but I'm coming up short all over the place. However, I'm somewhat circling in on a few real possibilities. After this final year in Taiwan, there's a pretty decent chance I'll be living in North-Central California, and it seems to me like there's one of two teams to support: The Warriors or The Kings.

Which leads me to ya'll: after seeing the show put on for LeBron the free agent, I'm thinking I should put myself on the market as well. I'm offering myself as a Fan Free Agent to both franchises, and I'd like you to convince me why I should be a member of your nation. As far as things I'm looking for go, I'm really looking at a few different characteristics:

Future: I know both teams aren't stellar now, but which way are they trending?
Going to games: I love attending pro games, but I'm a teacher, so I won't have a lot of cash. Will I be able to pull off a couple a year? And is the game day experience worth it? What sets it apart from the pack?
Players: What star's jersey am I going to buy? And will he still be playing on the team in 3 years? (Extra points: Do the jerseys change so often that immediately after purchasing, I'll be forced to rebuy 20 minutes later?)
Team/Ownership: How do the organizations treat the players and the fans?
Other things I should know: "There's a good chance this team worships the devil, so if you have problems with that, perhaps you should seek another option," etc.

Would love some help on the project. Thanks, ya'll!

We've had enough.

We've had diapers and drama, nightclubs and police reports, deactivations and suspensions, spitting and "Scarface", trade demands and Twitter.

Yes, there was a time when Larry Johnson was the future (and the present) of the Kansas City Chiefs. However, that time has fully passed.

With less than 10 rushing attempts and 100 yards until becoming the franchise's premier running back, Kansas City Chiefs fans demand that LJ and the Chiefs part ways. We appreciate what #27 has done for the team; however, the era of "The Roc" has ended.

Olathe, Kansas's own Kavya Shivashankar won the 2009 Scripps National Spelling Bee on Thursday night. She is the first Kansas product to win such an award in the history of the bee, and, more importantly, a precursor to the fate of the 2009 Kansas City Chiefs.

Work out the deal in advance. Insist on secrecy from everyone involved... And then pull the trigger when it’s too late for anyone picking after No. 28 to leapfrog the Bills and land the player they might be targeting...

If they hope to replace Peters by packaging the eleventh overall pick with the Eagles’ selection at No. 28 for a shot at trading into the top five for Jason Smith or Eugene Monroe, then the Bills would need to have the extra pick in hand before the draft begins...

Our guess? The Chiefs would be willing to take a couple hundred [draft [position] points less than the chart says they should get, if it means getting out of the crosshairs of the contract paid to the No. 3 overall selection — which last year landed for Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan a six-year, $72 million deal.

Lauren Killian-Cassel:

Biography (via Rightfielders):

As a biography, Lauren Killian was born on July 31, 1981 in Los Angeles, California, so her age is 27. She is the daughter of Don and Chris Killian. She is one of four children.

She attended Marlborough High School in Los Angeles and lettered in volleyball and basketball. She was named the Jonathan Club Student-Athlete of the Year and later won a silver medal at the Junior Olympics. She graduated from the school in 1999.

She went on to the University of Southern California (her parents, a grandmother, two grandfathers, great grandfather, three uncles, an aunt and several cousins also attended USC) and in her freshman year was a Pac-10 All-Freshman honorable mention in volleyball.

Her sophomore year, she played in every single match of the season (32 matches) and started once. She had an average of 1.50 kills, 0.75 blocks and .342 attack percentage. She was an honorable mention to the Pac-10 All-Academic team.

In Lauren’s junior season, she was named team captain and was again a Pac-10 All-Academic Honorable Mention. During her 2002 senior year, Lauren and the Women of Troy won the NCAA Championship, a feat that hadn’t been done in 21 years.

Lauren married Matt Cassel in 2007.

According to Epic Carnival, sounds like Lauren might have done wedding photography in Boston. Behold.

Not bad for a guy who never started in college.

The San Diego Union-Tribune has done its own "Mitchell Report" of sorts on performance-enhancing drugs in pro football... It includes 52 former Pro Bowl players and four Hall of Famers... It only involves drugs now classified by the league as performance-enhancing or "steroids and related substances" (steroids, ephedra, amphetamines), not cocaine, marijuana or alcohol.

...

KANSAS CITY

OL John Welbourn (2005) suspended four games for violation of steroid-related policy, then again for six games in 2006.

WR Johnnie Morton (2002-03) allegedly supplied THG through BALCO, according to federal investigators' memo cited in reports. In 2007, he tested positive for steroids in mixed martial arts event.

LB Lew Bush (2002) suspended four games for ephedra positive. He said it was in a sports drink he took.

RB Michael Cloud (2002) tested positive for nandrolone, later signed with New England and was suspended four games. He sued supplement maker for damages and reached a settlement.

DE Neil Smith (1986) had steroids found in his dorm room shared with Lawrence Pete at Nebraska.
