LJ To The Saints!!!
Since we all seem to be in LJ mode allow me to sprinkle in my two cents before MIZZOU advances to the final four.
It's clear that Larry has had enough of Kansas City and the women of Kansas City have had enough of him so where is the win win situation?
The New Orleans Saints is the perfect destination for Larry and could prove to be for the Chiefs as well. The Saints don't have a 2nd or 3rd round pick due to trades they have made the last few years but a 4th round pick with a conditional 2nd or 3rd in the 2010 draft based on LJ's stats could be a great victory for the Chiefs.
On the Saints end LJ in a backfield with Reggie Bush and Drew Brees would put them in a league of their own on the ofensive side of the ball. Sean Payton is a great offensive coach and he always finds away to get Bush the ball in open space but with a bull dog like larry in the backfield they could duplicate the sucsess they found in his first season where a Healthy Duce & Reggie ran all the way to the NFC Championship game.
Although LJ has shown that when a hole is open he can still put up big number (Atlanta & Denver games from "08) his off the field issues and attitude has almost forced the Chiefs hands so if they can walk away with a 4 and possible 2 I think thats a win win...
M-I-Z-Z-O-U!!!!!!

not to mention
he’ll be out of the AFC that’s always a plus
Time is a great teacher... unfortunately it kills all it's pupils.
I would take the pick and run.
He’s more tradeable with the gauranteed money in his contract being voided. If we win the Grievance.
I would take...
I’d take a 7th round pick for him, at this point.
take anything you can get, Pioli!
my money is on the Chiefs being forced to cut LJ, as no team shows interest in a trade
I dont like that the title of this made it look like fact or news or whatever
Ha…it scared me when I saw it…like it had happened…
Missou needs to bring back the yellow digs...
these gold ones make me think of the hideous Washington Wizards jerseys.
They looked great
We were picked 7th in Big-12 and finished 7th in nation. Top That

i see
the chiefs not just cutting lj but holding on to him until a team like the saints offer in the area of a 4th rd pick….or holding on through trainging camp to see if anyone has a back go down with an injury…they have the cap room that they are not going to spend, why just let him go for free when he could still have a little value to us
my thought
is that the new coaching staff and Pioli want to build this team right, for the long term, with high character guys.
LJ has worse character issues than TO (given that he is a bad teammate, wants to be traded, whines to the press, and has repeated off the field criminal issues)
For these reasons, (along with the fact that he hasn’t been able to avoid being hurt or suspsended in how long?) I think that LJ has worn out his welcome, and if the hearing goes the Chiefs’ way, and they can save some money, they will send him packing.
Cutting LJ creates more problems then it solves...
Herm wasn’t able to properly handle him but Herm is a fucking idiot. I have more faith in Pioli and Haley.
Truth is
If we want to get the most out of LJ the best we can do is keep him as our starter until the trade deadline. Pending on whether he’s “back” or not we’ll get more or less out of a trade. Plus, by the trade deadline teams experimenting with RB’s will be sure if they need a RB like johnson to succeed this year, therefore will be willing to give up more in a trade
Time is a great teacher... unfortunately it kills all it's pupils.
The only thing though....
Pierre Thomas is better than LJ. Too bad we can’t trade for him straight across. Pierre put up awesome numbers week in and out for several weeks when Bush was hurt last year, both on the ground and through the air. PT is the total package. PT is HANDS DOWN better than LJ, and I’ve got the fantasy points from last season to prove it.
I wouldnt go that far
just because he had some good games and put up some fantasy points dont make him better…..Thiggy put up good fantasy points as well, dont make him top of the line…..

Too Bad
Missouri ALMOST made it to thier first final four
OK ....... LJ to the saints...GREAT....... But who or what are we Going to Get...........
We must pick up something from who ever we deal him to.
I'll settle for high quality digital photos of all the boobies flashed as they toss out the beads at Mardi Gras, or a $10 Wal Mart gas card.

Man, you guys are out of your minds.
If you want to have a good running game then, we need to keep LJ. He is much more valuable on the team than any offer we are going to get for him.
LJ for a 5th
Charles and a couple guys named Joe can handle the running game. Thats how the Pats usually did it.
