Kansas City Chiefs news gathered in one place. Enjoy today's Arrowheadlines.

But that’s where the available players sit right now. There are a few players every day coming available; for instance, QB Chris Simms and S Deon Grant because available after they were released by the Broncos and Seahawks.

We’ll take a look at the best signings around the league on Wednesday. Here on Tuesday, we’ll take a look at the Chiefs roster moves since the start of the new league year, plus the day before it all began when they re-signed LB Mike Vrabel (above). Here’s my view on what the Chiefs have gotten done, in order or importance to the team in 2010:

A Second Look At The Moves … Tuesday Cup O’Chiefs from Bob Gretz

"We have to find a way," La Russa likes to say.

La Russa took some of that from Parcells' philosophy. When Parcells' daughter married now-Kansas City Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli, the best man was Indians GM Mark Shapiro, then the club's farm director. At the rehearsal dinner, Parcells asked Shapiro about the Indians, and Shapiro began his response with an explanation of a rash of injuries that had hit the team.

"Son," Parcells interrupted, "Let me tell you something. Nobody [cares]. Just win."

In the receiving line, when Parcells reached Shapiro, he said, "Remember what I told you. Nobody [cares]. Just win."

And when they found themselves in adjoining stalls in the men's room at the reception, Parcells repeated, "Son ..."

Star-divide

THE Winnipeg Blue Bombers continue to flesh out their training camp roster, adding a pair of imports in wide receiver Will Franklin and linebacker SaMario Houston on Monday.

Franklin was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in the fourth round of the 2008 NFL draft and played in 13 games with the Chiefs that season making seven catches for 83 yards.

SI_PeterKing Giants on Sunday in new palace; regional game. Jets next night in new palace; national game. Hey Woody: Care about something that matters.

ArrowheadPride According to various accounts on Twitter, Chiefs GM Scott Pioli, head coach Todd Haley and off. coordinator Charlie Weis are at Jon Bon Jovi
SI_PeterKing RT @bootang25: For Berry, KC would be logical to trade w/Mia. Might not cost what Jet/Brown deal did... And KC would never take S that high.

Whodathunkit? Heh. Now if only Pioli could just find his own Pujols…

Boycott Facebook. It's lame. Inform your real friends that you're going to communicate with them like a normal human being, and then delete your account. Seriously.

I love Parcells. I love his way of thinking. Thats me.

God I hate excuse makers. I hate it. When you suck you suck. Suck it up and get it done. Win! Go Parcells.

Excuses aren't usually welcome

But there’s a very important distinction between having responsible patience and enabling excuse-makers. An impatient, ignorant fan won’t consider facts and circumstances, and will demand immediate success, calling anything less than a playoff berth in the first year of a coach’s tenure an abject failure. That’s just plain unrealistic impatience. Growing pains are part of building enduring success.

I'm glad our Head Coach is a student of Parcell's.

There once was a man from Nantucket......Nevermind.

Players with more extra-base hits and walks than strikeouts

now that’s one interesting chart in the Gammons article … especially the name on TOP of the list … and while the subject was Pujols, who’s 4th on that list of coolness, the guy at the top … and the stats! goodness …

we often overlook the greatness we’ve been blessed with here in KC … George Brett, you’re a schmuck but DAMN what a hitter
