Chiefs Blowing up Internet News

Here are just some of the quotes and links to things out there right now.  Mostly from PFT.com, which is OBSESSED with this coverage.  Can't blame em:

Gonzalez has no one but himself to blame,” Schefter writes.  “He crossed the Bills off his wish list.  He closed his mind to a small town with a big heart.  He limited his opportunities and denied the Chiefs the chance to take the third-round pick, and other compensation, the Bills were offering.  This is not entirely Carl Peterson’s fault.  Gonzalez also is at fault.”

For Johnson, that’s a good thing.  Because if Johnson were being disciplined for that in the wake of the charges being made public, it would mean that the team didn’t know about the situation until recently, which would subject Johnson to stern discipline under the Personal Conduct Policy for failing to disclose a pending criminal matter.

If the gossip on the league grapevine means anything (and, lots of times, it doesn’t), it’s not necessary.  There’s talk in league circles that Peterson will be ousted after the season.

The man has been in power for 20 years and hasn't won a playoff game since 1993. No one writes about this tragedy and the pain endured by Chiefs fans. http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/8683040?MSNHPHMA

The quotes from PFT

Directly contrast what we heard from the owner. I wonder what’s going on.

No kidding -

they’re already speculating a replacement…..something’s gotta be up but this is defnitely not positive press.

Two Possibilities

1) This is just a reaction to what Whitlock wrote and it will fade out after a week or two (just because they’re speculating on candidates doesn’t make it true)

2) Clark Hunt’s interview was actually a “dreaded vote of confidence” (meaning putting a happy face on things while preparing to drop the axe) and he’s working behind the scenes to find a replacement.

And we’re probably not going to know which is the case for quite awhile.

Supporting the lesser of two evils is still supporting something evil.
