Live Blogging Hard Knocks

Well here we are again - only two left.

The sad thing is that we have to relive the NO game and that's no fun. I mean that game was a DISASTER!

But I am always hopeful. You just never know what the hell is going to happen.

Of course, Don Banks of Sports Illustrated has ranked KC last in the AFC West. Thanks buddy.

Meanwhile, we are anxiously awaiting the start of the regular season. We have our fantasy draft party this weekend & then we wait for September 9th. It should be an interesting day.

My plan at this point is to take the kids swimming for three hours before the game. Wear them out! Then NAP time for at least the first half. By then, I will know whether to go outside & play with them or introduce them to mommy's obsession. My two oldest (5 & 3) have been to the preseason games.

All's I can say, is that in 12 days, all the predictions and speculation will be over & I will get to watch my beloved Chiefs play FOOTBALL!

Go Chiefs!

25th Day of Training Camp

Somebody is getting cut.

Have to give back the playbook.

Playbook, "Holy Grail of this offense."

Sippio studying his playbook.

So, each playbook

is specific to each player or what?

by Joel Thorman on Aug 29, 2007 9:08 PM CDT reply actions

HOT

Chiefs played in temps averaging 95 degrees.

Bowe, "I don't even want to talk about how hot itis."

Gun, "It's fucking hot. So what?"

"Fucking enjoy the moment. You fuckers, if you think I am going to pass out, you have something coming."

Can't misquote Gun quotes

They might be even more classic than Hermisms!

Croyle / Huard

Croyle's arm strength is greatest asset.

Herm loves Cryole.

Cornerbacks at V's.

Patterson & Breckenridge.

CP checking in on Breckenridge.

re: Brodie's press conference

He seems way too nonchalant to lead a team.

by Joel Thorman on Aug 29, 2007 9:13 PM CDT reply actions

Totally agreed.

I am really unimpressed. But I will give him a shot when it's time.

Poor guy - he's going to get cut.

Boomer. Finally given medical clearance.

"Position is all about mentality." - Boom.

Boomer

"It's all about hitting." Kind of afraid of that mentality, that he's just hitting people and not using any skill.

LJ's pants fell down on a run.

More cuts

That is depressing.

Didn't Jerry Jones do the cuts personally when they did the Cowboys Hard Knocks? Asshole & show-boat.

You play to win the game!

by tailgateandwin on Aug 29, 2007 9:19 PM CDT reply actions

Yep.

I remember that. Way too involved. Where do these owners get off thinking they should be in the decision making. I understand it's their money but the coaches were hired because they know what is best for the team!

by Joel Thorman on Aug 29, 2007 9:20 PM CDT reply actions

Bowe

is rusty. Shows how important it is to be in camp on time!

When John Tait was late for camp was that his rookie year over his contract or an extension?

by Joel Thorman on Aug 29, 2007 9:22 PM CDT reply actions

Bowe

Everyone has advice for Bowe including the soon-to-be cut Rod Gardner.

Bowe gotes out to get Kennison his pecan pancakes. Bowe will be expected to do it every Saturday from here on it.

Rod, "Ray needs to see you."

Gardner give someone an uneasy feeling.

Bennett & Law talking about the league.

I will definitely be doing the Tank Tyler dance move. "Get your roll on."

Turk thinks too much.

Gun dips.

The Tank Snoring Dance. "Get your roll on."

TG wants a front-row parking spot. He's been there the longest. Dante & Trent paid for their spaces.

Gameday

This shit is depressing. I don't want to watch this again.

Herm has to tell L.J. to take off his hat.

Cryole doesn't yell out "Chiefs" at the National Anthem. Chris, no wonder you like Croyle.

Great point.

Headset

Maybe that was the problem - the headset.

Gun, "he got the shit knocked out of him."

Bowe is strong. I love the yards after catch.

Boos from the crowd. We left before halftime but I might have booed. Not sure. He seems stupid to me.

You play to win the game!

by tailgateandwin on Aug 29, 2007 9:38 PM CDT reply actions

it might be just me

but i dont think you should EVER boo your home town team, especially in the preseason...

i love croyle and think that he will be a very good QB down the line, maybe even next season. however, he needs to play some real regular season games before he can become a very good QB, so hopefully (unless we get off to a hot start) croyle can come in and get experience.
