I think of how long his school’s had football every time I hear someone pump up his college accomplishments by noting he set all the records. Of course he set all the records, he graduated two years ago and they didn’t even have football before he got there.

is this just going about the residents or is there another outlet we should pay attention to?

on one of the local sports shows yesterday here in Omaha, NE, the guest was a guy from Yahoo Sports or Fox (can’t remember which) who was asked about Vince Youngs future. He was saying that he needs an offense that will get him outside the pocket. Tennesse runs primarily between the tackles. The host then said he knew a perfect place for VY – with Chan Gailey. The guest then said “Yeah, Vince Young could end up in Kansas City.”

Just thought that was interesting. Could that be a good thing?

I agree, Chris. I know fans are frustrated but it shouldn’t reach the level of refunding tickets.

And trying to boycott? I’m really, really glad 99% of the commenters here are much, much better than that.

has only had a football program since ‘97, and been I-A since ’01. They’ve managed to do pretty well for themselves in a short amount of time. Then again, they count former starting Chiefs LB Kawika Mitchell amongst their alum, so maybe it isn’t soo impressive.

I was kinda dismayed at the turnout I saw on the TV this weekend. I’d kill for a chance to see 8 games every season at Arrowhead, no matter how much we suck (read: I can drink a lot of beer).

Positive thinking is on.

Chiefs first offensive play: play action to LJ, Bones rolls toward Anderson’s (that’s the DE’s name right?) side so he can take himself out of the play. Bones then heaves a bomb to Darling down the sideline, thus giving the Falcons a taste of what they dished out in week one (and fantasy points for me).

The D bounces back and we see some more forced turnovers like week one. Nothing spectacular, but solid.

Likely? Not a chance in hell, but it’s fun to dream.

Asking for a refund is obviously either a joke or incredibly naive, so I won’t discuss it.

I don’t have a problem with boycotts.

Wait. Just hear me out.

Does it damage the franchise? Absolutely. But if you’re a diehard fan that honestly and truly feels that management has wasted your supportive dollars over the last three years and you want to express yourself, there’s no other way to make an impact. You can go on here and rip apart Carl Peterson for everything and turn every argument into a reason it’s his fault, but in the end, that won’t affect management, because it doesn’t affect the bottom line. This is sad, but true. Boycotting is the only way to make an impact that doesn’t involve a public protest. If you want them to understand you won’t support them if they continue to make moves you feel are foolish, unwise, ill-prepared and otherwise overly conservative to the end of being contrary to the continued growth and prosperity of the franchise you’ve invested yourself in, the best way is to remove your dollars from their revenue stream. I don’t like it, and I wont’ do it, because I’m not there yet. But if I were a Lions fan, suffering through year 100 AM (after Millen)? I would totaly boycott that franchise. And if we’re rebuilding in five years, still the laughing stock of the league? I’ll be tempted to do the same, because they will have abused my trust.

For me the real horror is that scenario, because the end result is not just a bad football team. It means selling the Chiefs and moving them. And that I just couldn’t bear.
