ESPN - Rumors: Boldin or James to Kansas City now
(ESPN Insider membership needed - I don't have it) - but ESPN is now on the rumor bandwagon that has Boldin possibly coming to the Chiefs. Someone who has Insider access should summarize what's being said.

Not so much Boldin but James
In the insider it said that James landing in KC is a possibility. Rod Graves said he had one trade offer for Boldin. He later said the chances Boldin remains in the red and white are “pretty high.” He expects Boldin to be a Cardinal next year.

The rumors
Are being generated by ESPN and not legitimate league rumros.

Not sure if he's serious
Or taking a jab at KK.

In my office I listen to 810 all day
Because one of my best buddies Jason Anderson is on the air some times. I told him that if he ever switches to a different station I will switch. We grew up together and went to high school together but that’s besides the point. Kevin said the Chiefs are close to deal for James. I don’t know how creditble is info is but if he says it on the radio he’s vouching for the truthfulness. He didn’t say it’s rumored, maybe he has some inside info.

They just said it again
3:55 pm central time. They also said that Boldin reported to camp but is not particiapting which usually means that there is a deal in place. They went on to say that they do have an offer for Boldin and that it’s a good chace he will be playing for “the red and white” which could be AZ, Wash, and KC IMO.

Boldin has a hamstring problem apparently
That’s why he isn’t participating.

I wasn't joking just saying what I heard on the radio.
After hearing it I went and read that he said it was his hamstring but these were not my words just saying what I heard.

I've been listening to KK this afternoon
And Mostate44 we differ in out interpretations.
First of all he referred back several times to Bill Williamson’s blog, which is really saying nothing new.
He also said ‘aparently’ most times he referenced it, and ‘when there’s smoke there’s fire’ using it to advertise thier terrible advertising segment from the BBQ store they always set up at.
When KK is ‘breaking’ news (which is pretty rare) he makes it clear that he’s breaking news. This isn’t the case.
He also had one of his studio guys, can’t remember who it was, checking espn.com and ‘reporting on the blogs.’
Bottomline, KK and 810 don’t have any breaking news, and ESPN’s speculation, which is all that insider post was, fooled KK into thinking this was going to happen.

This shouldn't be taken as a shot at 810
They’re far superior to 610, just didn’t want anyone to go making thier custom Boldin Chiefs jersey just yet.

If he got fooled that's fine
I’m just telling you the words that came out of his mouth.
