Jamaal Charles: As Good As Advertised from The Mothership
The NFL Network revealed Kansas City Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles as being ranked #20 on its list of the "Top 100 Players of 2013". There are plenty of Chiefs fans who will be quick to say Jamaal should have a higher ranking and you can't blame them, especially after his 2012 campaign.

Report: Desmond Bishop Decision Looming from ESPN
Bishop, who is coming off a major hamstring injury, would be a 3-4 starting inside linebacker if he joins the Chiefs. The Chiefs don't have a ton of cap room, so they might have to do some juggling.
Chiefs Celebrate 50 Years In Kansas City from KSHB
On June 20, 1963, the Dallas Texans football team ditched the Lone Star State and moved the team to Kansas City, establishing our beloved Chiefs.
One local football legend who helped make that move possible was Jack Steadman.
In 1963, Steadman was the Chief's general manager and he made a bold move to convince Lamar Hunt, founder of the American Football League, and then-owner of the Dallas Texans, to ditch Dallas, shoo off any consideration of moving to New Orleans, and instead, find a city where the team could "control their destiny." That city was Kansas City.
Campaign Gets A Big Boost From A Chief To A Royal from The Catholic Key
Lamar Hunt Jr. has given a lot of big checks to a lot of professional athletes.
But a June 13 luncheon at the downtown Catholic Center might have marked the first time the owner of the NFL Kansas City Chiefs gave one to a baseball player.
Before an intimate crowd of the movers and shakers of the "Forward in Faith" campaign, Hunt handed to former Kansas City Royals great and campaign chairman Mike Sweeney an oversized, symbolic check to announce publicly his $3 million pledge to the fundraising drive to secure the future of Catholic education and formation in the Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph, as well as construct a new St. Michael the Archangel High School in Lee's Summit.

Chiefs Secondary Looks Elite from The Examiner
NFL Live ranked its top secondaries Wednesday and the Kansas City Chiefs made the cut at No. 5. To me, this is a pretty impressive deal.
After the disaster of last season, the Chiefs have gotten to work to upgrade the secondary and they are already gaining respect. Some people may disagree with the NFL Live team, but I have to say that they hit the nail on the head. If we take a look at what this secondary has, we can see that they are deep in every facet.

Honoring All Varieties Of NFL Triplets from USA Today

Atlanta Falcons' Steven Jackson Signing Tops Offseason Moves from NFL.com
Look, many teams made great, signature moves. Alex Smith will increase the Kansas City Chiefs' win total by six games. Percy Harvin will stretch the field for the Seattle Seahawks (if he can stay healthy). Greg Jennings was a big move at receiver for the Minnesota Vikings, but does he move the meter on the win total from last year or advance the team in the playoffs?
Indianapolis Colts 2013 Schedule Analysis from Athlon Sports
The other game in the final month is a visit to Arrowhead Stadium to play the Chiefs. As bad as Kansas City was last season, this is a team with a new coaching staff and new quarterback, among several other changes. And if there's any team that's familiar with that recipe and how it can lead to success, it would be the Colts.
Cousin Of Zoey Belcher's Mother Is Awarded Guardianship Of 9-Month-Old from KC Star
Calling Sophie Perkins "the most suitable person" to raise orphaned 9-month-old Zoey Belcher, a Jackson County probate court judge awarded the Texas woman guardianship Thursday.
In the six months since her parents' death, Zoey has bonded with Perkins, the judge noted. She doesn't need another change in primary caregivers, he said. And Perkins offers the more stable home, he said.
But the "primary difference" between Perkins, who is a cousin to Zoey's mother, and Cheryl Shepherd, the mother of Zoey's father, came down to the family visitation schedules the two women put forth, Jackson County Probate Commissioner Daniel Wheeler said in his 27-page ruling.
