Friday Afternoon Links

by Chris Thorman on Jan 18, 2008 2:53 PM CST in KC Chiefs News

SMQ sits down with the nation's top football recruit, Terrelle Pryor.
Britney Spears isn't the only one -- Herschel Walker to reveal he has multiple personalities.
Everyone seems to be talking about Clark Hunt's comments yesterday about the state of the Chiefs. Frankly, I didn't see anything newsworthy in them.
A Chiefs assistant retires. Never heard the guy's name in my entire life.
Patrick Herb, Brad Kuhbander and Josh Looney of KCChiefs.com have started their own weekly collection of links. The first set of links is pretty bland but then again so was this entire site when I started.
Ryan at MVN makes a good point -- Chan Gailey has a relatively easy job ahead of him. Ryan says, "Why? Because there is absolutely no way you can be considered a failure when compared to the prior regime."
This did not surprise me one bit -- Pacman Jones loses Pimp Juice sponsorship. I'm not ashamed to say I've tried Pimp Juice before and it gave me bitter beer face.
I don't get to many clubs so I don't know if Shawne Merriman spilling champagne all over this girl is normal or if its just the steroids.
A barefoot 70-yard field goal? You be the judge.

Talk about your all-time most boring, uneventful Fridays in the sports world, let alone in Chiefs news. I reached back into the repository of trusty post ideas...and found nothing. Nothing I could get excited about anyway.

No worries though AP readers. We have the playoff live blogs this weekend here and I guarantee we'll be back in full force by Monday.

For the games this weekend, I'm taking the Patriots over the Chargers (Take that Vegas!) and I'm going to call the Giants/Packers game even for now. I'll make a prediction right before the game.

Your predictions?

I am almost certain

the video is doctored. Also, watch when he moves the ball from 65 to 69 yards. See where the ball is in relation to the logo on the field at 65 yards. Then watch where the ball is located relevant to the logo at 69 yards. Moving the ball laterally 4 yards and changing the camera angle doesn't count.
Besides not all of the kicks were successful.

Join the club

It's going to feel like 0 degree here in KC tomorrow morning. At least there's football.

I'm already in the club

If Jason Elam can kick it from 63 yards while playing in a game, then I bet that video could be real.

Clark Hunt

Alot of what Clark said was pretty much the "company line" that you hear all the time from Peterson and Herm.

Whether the philosophy he talked about of drafting young players and developing a franchise QB is his own or if he is just regergetating Herms because thats the direction the team is going I don't know.

But he sounded like since Lamar is gone now, he is trying to tie up the projects he is working on outside of football so that in the next couple of years (when Carl is gone) he can start taking a more active role in the Chiefs.
