Broncos' Marshall Skips Mandatory Camp; Chiefs Fans Laugh (Again)

Topper-marshall_medium

via i.usatoday.net

Ho, ho, ho.  Things just keep getting better in Denver.  Back on March 16th, Chris talked about then Bronco Jay Cutler asking to be traded.  The title was eerily similar to the one I've just posted:

Denver QB Jay Cutler Asks to be Traded; Chiefs Fans Laugh

Now, we laugh again.

The best weapon remaining on the team, Brandon Marshall, is skipping mandatory mini-camp, according to Mike Klis of the Denver Post.  Marshall is supposedly looking for a new deal.  Great timing, right?  Here's what Mile High Report commenter PredominantlyOrange had to say on the subject over at MHR:

You’ve got an obvious attempt to change the culture of the locker room. Brandon Marshall has now decided to buck that by asking for more money when its not reasonable to expect it— he’s still facing a possible suspension, he hasn’t showed that he can be durable and he has not proved that he can excell in the new scheme. To me, the horrible timing of this move would be obvious to a brain injured monkey.

Thus, I can only conclude that the only thing Brandon Marshall can be thinking is that any outcome is acceptable to him, including a departure from Denver. In fact, a reasonable man might expect this move to end his Denver career. I think Brandon Marshall is a reasonable man.

I am having a really hard time with something that I need you all to help me with.  What's better - The Chiefs offseason acquisitions of Scott Pioli and Matt Cassel or the Broncos loss of Jay Cutler and now this latest Brandon Marshall development?

Possible new WR...?

I wonder if he gets cut if we will try to sign him?

Ha

He’s not getting cut. He’s one of the best young WRs in the game.

by Joel Thorman on Jun 12, 2009 12:03 PM CDT up reply actions  

cut maybe not...

but we are talking about the same team that traded one of the best youg QB’S! in the game for Kyle Orton and some draft picks who may or may not work out.

I think we should offer them Jeff Webb and a can of spam. They’d probably take it.

No thanks. Not unless Clark Hunt convinces KC to put a prison cell in Arrowhead so Marshall can practice year-round.

Karma?

Perhaps this is karma for the three ref-assisted wins they received last year?

How about karma for letting Shanahan go last year. I know his effectiveness had slipped the last couple of years, but 2 SB’s gives you a much longer leash than that and just look at the state of the franchise since he left…

I agree

Ratface was a horrible, horrible douchebag, but he was a solid coach.

Marley will be walking soon...she could probably play Linebacker better than some of the guys we had.

by PVChiefsfan on Jun 12, 2009 3:42 PM CDT up reply actions  

Shanny got a ten-year leash

With that said, their offseason moves besides him have been questionable at best. Great for me cause i’m a Bears fan!

Cassel is the the better outsome

no matter how bad the other division teams get the Chiefs need solid players to suceed. It doesn’t hurt that Denver got worse but it is better that the Chiefs got better.

Hey Guys, need some advice

work is slow today and I am going to watch a Chiefs game on that web site with all the games..or Eden as I like to call it.

Any suggestions on some good ones I should watch?>

Dude, I'm watching this now

I was only 8 years old when this game happened so I don’t remember it. I really got on board when Montana showed up.

It so great to see our defense playing well again..

Arrowhead was on fire that night.

The Houston '93 play-off game

Everyone thought they shot thier wad on the Pittsburg game(I was at that wildcard game and was worried myself). Cash scoring and throwing the ball at Buddy’s poster was priceless. I still think he spit on it also.

Ya know...

We’ve had some doosy offseasons ourselves, even this year with Waters and TG. But, we are no where close to the trainwreck that’s happening over in Denver…I just see McDaniels in costume as Dark Helmet sitting on top of that stupid horse at Invesco shouting “Ludicrus Speed!!!!” Yes….It’s that crazy.

It's all part of the master plan of KC

First, a KC company will design MileHigh 2, the fans hate it. Then, our new GM who had a working relationship with Denver’s new headcoah will destroy them from the inside…it will only take 5-10 years, but soon, the Denver faithful will be gone and the Chiefs will win consistently in Denver.

2 months ago I said this and the staff at Arrowhead pride removed the comment crying stop spreading malicious rumors

With all the news coming out of Denver about Marshall being unhappy you seem like idiots now dont you. lol 2 months ago you were saying "stop with the Marshall rumors were not supporting that." Now what? I think you should get some better sources. lol

also

at the time they were rumors…so what you are saying is that Chris and Primetime should feel stupid for not believing rumors until they were confirmed, by a reliable source, to be fact?

Furthurmore, have you really been sitting around for two months angry about this, just waiting for your chance to come back here and say “I told you so.”

FAIL.

players are sickening as of late

you hear about this more and more every single year with almost all less than par teams’ star players. It’s all about greed. Players are no longer happy with millions of dollars a year…yes, they love the money, but the repetitive statement of ‘money don’t bring happiness’ is absolutely true.

Players are getting a lot more money sooner than they know what to do with, so they reach out for that pleasure elsewhere, meaning wanting to be on a winning team as soon as they feel like some ducks aren’t in a row for them. The word rebuilding should be changed to WEbuilding in the NFL, cuz not many star players like or want to fight through any adversity with their teammates.

Greed can stay in our division for all I care, cuz I know what’s happening on our side of the fence. Character is a lot more important to me than any talent anymore, thanks to Don.

I'm currently reading "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest" and it feels like we got ourselves a McMurphy on our hands....wheelin' and dealin'
