Chiefs GM Pioli Comments on Brian Waters as a Man of the Year Finalist
Somehow I missed this last night when it was announced that Kansas City Chiefs G Brian Waters was a Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award finalist.
In the Chiefs press release, GM Scott Pioli commented on Waters' well deserved recognition.
"Brian’s track record of community service and his career-long commitment to helping others off the field make him a very deserving candidate for the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award," General Manager Scott Pioli said. "As an organization, we take great pride in the community outreach efforts of all members of the Chiefs family, and Brian’s generosity has helped improve the lives of thousands of young people and their families in Kansas City."
And Waters commented also.
"It’s an honor to serve the NFL and the Chiefs by assisting those both in Kansas City and my home state of Texas," noted Waters. "In reality, what I’ve been able to give back to these communities represents only a small percentage of what they have done for me and my family. My goal is to not only do my part, but also to encourage others to do the same in their communities."
We may not have a horse in the big race, but there's still reason to watch the Super Bowl. The winner will be announced prior to kickoff.

Hopefully...
…Brian will win this year. He was also a finalist two years ago. If he does win, he’ll be the fifth Chief to do so…Willie Lanier won in ’72, Len Dawson in ’73, DT in ’93, and Will Shields in ’03. Congrats to Brian, and thanks for carrying on a great tradition.
Are there Vegas odds for the winner of this award?
I mean, you can pretty much bet on everything else in this game, why not this award as well…
If you want to bet on NFL Man of the Year
You might have a gambling problem.
Not you specifially Boots, but in general ;)
