Training Camp Montage

Just went through some of the old Kansas City Chiefs training camp photos and picked out some of the betters ones. Many more after the jump.

Training camp begins in nine short days and if you've never really intensely followed the going ons of a Kansas City Chiefs training camp, the UW-RF Chiefs site is a must read. While the staff can get a bit confused between this player or that player during their practice summaries, they do provide a truly massive amount of pictures from training camp. And for that, we thank them.

So, here are some of the better pictures. Or at least the pictures that made me think of funny lines.

Not your usual caravan of River Falls vehicles, I'd imagine. (2006 camp)

Eddie Kennison even looked old in '06.

If Herm could wear this hat all the time, he would. (2006)

Once puberty begins, that'll look good. (2006)

Greg, we're telling you. You're not treated fairly here. Demand a trade. (2006)

Admit it. You thought that was Croyle too when you first glanced at it. (2006)

Small Jason Dunn, meet Large Jason Dunn. (2006)

And that throwing motion is why Casey Printers is in the CFL again. (2006)

During the off season, I, you know, like to hang out and work on my music. (2006)

You have no idea how angry I'm going to be in a year. (2007)

Anyone's life need saving? Maybe a choking incident or an emergency appendectomy?(2007)

Now you guys aren't going to sell any of this stuff I sign, right? (2007)

I'm telling ya coach. It's going to be o-kay. (2006)

A vegetarian diet? No way! (2006)

Herm: I wonder if I'm whimsical enough. (2006)

I can feel the whoosh of air from here. (2007)

Do Not interrupt Donnie Edwards' training camp yoga sessions. (2007)

Tough guy Herm. (2007)

Record heat down here. Other than that, it’s fantastic. I really love the town.

Casey Printers

And that throwing motion is why Casey Printers is in the CFL again.

I think it had more to do with his regrettable habit of consistently fumbling snaps in practice.

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

RE

Did you see the Casey Printers FanShot I just put up?

Just Read It

I didn’t really fault Casey Printers for saying what he said to Ray Farmer in “Hard Knocks”. It was an accurate assessment…he put in a lot of time trying to work his way up, he was playing in the preseason with the third-string and the obvious roster cuts and he was clearly outperforming both Huard and Croyle, so based on preseason performance he probably didn’t deserve to get cut for a guy who didn’t even play in the preseason (Tyler Thigpen).

On the flip side, I looked up his stats from last season in the CFL and the guy was awful…really bad. And he was a fairly mediocre passer before that so it’s not like the Chiefs were cutting loose a Doug Flutie or a Warren Moon. From what I saw, Printers was what he was, a 3rd QB on an NFL roster who’s always going to struggle to make the cut. So you can’t really blame the Chiefs for cutting him loose because his ceiling didn’t appear to be that high, especially when you consider the consistent fumbling problem.

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