Kansas City Chiefs Water Cooler Conversations

The final game of the preseason is tonight against the St. Louis Rams. Hardly any of the starters will be playing and besides Brodie Croyle starting the game, there won't be a whole lot to talk about. I've gathered some odd and quirky facts about some of the Kansas City Chiefs players so you can keep the conversation going at the office, on your couch or at the bar. Feel free to claim that you found these on your own. All of the info comes from the horribly outdated NFLPlayers.com.

Damon Huard

Nickname: Huey

Favorite movies: Risky Business, Stand By Me, Braveheart

Football heroes growing up: Dan Marino and John Elway (You have to be ****ing kidding me)

Few people know that: Huard worked for the co-founder of Microsoft (Paul Allen) his first year out of college

Larry Johnson

Favorite movie: Glory

Few people know that: Larry's a painter

Pre-game ritual: Listening to the Glory soundtrack

Nicknames: LJ and Big L

Tony Gonzalez

Craziest ambition: Act on Broadway

Autobiography would be called: Keepin' it Real

Favorite movie: Forrest Gump

Casey Wiegman

Few people know that: Casey's hometown of Parkersburg, IA, has had four NFL players come out of it

Favorite bands: Dave Matthews Band, Limp Bizkit, and Godsmack. Of course, Jimmy Buffet.

Nickname: Wigs

Patrick Surtain

Few people know that: Grew up with Juvenile, the rapper

Craziest ambition: To get a million dollars in singles and wallow in it

Hobbies: Sleeping and watching Sportscenter

Rod Gardner

Nicknames: Playboy, Sticky Fingers, Rod

Craziest ambition: Own a yacht

Dream car: Camry

So, Huey is a traitor; The Big L is deeper than we all thought; Tony G is a more than likely a diva; Wigs couldn't get any whiter; Patrick Surtain was makin' it rain before Pacman Jones; and former Chief Rod Gardner is probably closer to a buying a Camry than ever.

OMG
Act on Broadway!  I love it!!  I want to do it too!!

I love learning more about our guys - that is why I really like the Hard Knocks - it kind of gives us insight into the guys.

Cheers.

Almost football time!!

You play to win the game!

Hmmm...
Gardner is indeed closer to buying that Camry. Nicely played, sir.

Who I'm worried about is Huey -- Risky Business?

You could definitley
by Surtain's answers that he was "keeping his street cred".

Die Elway Die
One day I will see him in public, approach him as if I am a fan to shake his hand.  When I get close enough do the splits and punch him the nuts, Jonny Cage style, get up and do the chop in his face.  
Go to Hell Elway.  Stanford sucks too.

QB's
Isn't anyone worried that Huard, Brodie are lucky to be backups but definately not starters in the NFL.  Hell Printers and the Rookie offer more hope than the other two.

Croyle
has major potential IMO. Huard is a stopgap QB this season.

Yes, Printers did look good but he still has fumbling problems after all this time.
