wouldn’t this be more effective if everyone just sent a msg to the “official” chiefs twitter account to express this.

How do you tell them on twitter?

How does that work, if you follow them, do your comments show up on their page?

Now hopefully this team is fun to watch again! Thanks Scott, Clark!!

You start a twitter account (I think you have one)

And whatever you tweet to them (@kc_chiefs1), will show up on your page. But others can see it and they can see it if they’re following you.

Daniel is a “Pioli guy”. A blue collar worker. A team guy. He just needs a shot with a free agent contract. Let him show his stuff. Either he makes the cut or he doesn’t. The guy’s got the intangibles the New Chiefs way is looking for. Pioli and Haley, give him a shot at the rookie/free agent mni-camp.

From the highlight tape and such that you posted on here and the email replies he’s been sending and being posted I really, REALLY think this guy is a “Pioli Guy” in that he is a hardcore team player that won’t quit until it’s done right. Pioli, Haley, and Pendergast (however you spell his last name) should look this guy up and see about sigining him to an undrafted FA contract. He’ll blow them away, I’m sure of it. His intelligence, work-ethic, power, and passion for the game is all evident in the way he plays. He’s got my vote…and my signature.

Yeah, he’s fair game from how I interpret the invite. He really hasn’t signed anything so I’m guessing he could be acquired by other teams.

It would be nice if Daniel could give us an update on his progress and maybe some insight on what he might be feeling/going through.
