RE: KC's Bowe Show on Hiatus, WR Suspended for Four Games
Jim, I don't see the Chiefs doing anything as drastic as releasing or trading Bowe. It isn't beyond the realm of possibility however, that he could find himself coming off the bench when he finally returns though.
RE: Why Charlie Weis In KC Makes Sense
You read my mind on this one, Steve. You beat me to the punch on an article about it too! :-)
RE: Chiefs' Derrick Thomas Makes Final Appearance Against Broncos on Sunday
You and me both!
RE: Hot Stove: Bruney traded, Pettitte, Meche, Damon, Delgado, Castillo
As a Royals fans (yes there are still a few of us), I'd love to see the Royals try to move Meche and his salary. The Mets would need to give up one of their young OFs and a young P to make it happen though.
RE: Blackout Avoided, But Will Chiefs Fans Even Be Watching?
Christina, stop feeling sick about my criticism of the Chiefs.

My family was in the stands in section 107 every Sunday for 22 years, beginning in 1982. As you might guess, we didn't always have a winner to cheer for. In fact, I was there long enough to see the bad times turn good, and then turn bad again.

I'm also a former high school coach and one thing holds true in sports... if you're not getting better, you're likely getting worse. After getting bombed the past two weeks, I'm not all that confident this team is getting better.

In fact, I think the evidence is pretty overwhelming that this team is getting worse.
RE: Woods Saga Continues, This Is Getting Entirely Ridiculous (TIGER)
Thanks Willy and Thomas, I appreciate the comments.
RE: Heisman is a Hoax, This Popularity Contest Needs an Overhaul
Jim, the point of including the other two backs from Alabama in the discussion was to point out that any of their backs could run behind that offensive line.
RE: Woods Saga Continues, This Is Getting Entirely Ridiculous (TIGER)
Jerry, if you don't like Tiger because of this... stop buying the tickets, and don't buy Nike or Gatorade products until they get rid of him.

The guy is famous for being a fantastic golfer, the best we've ever seen. He's employed by others to pitch merchandise, and if you don't buy their stuff because of him, then he'll no longer be employed by them.

Of course when half of all marriages in this country fail, and many of those divorces are a result of infidelity, it sure seems extremely hypocritical to me when people blast celebrities for doing what many other Americans do.

He didn't break the law here, he just chose a lifestyle you don't agree with. Get over it.
RE: Texas Tech Fires Mike Leach, Coaches Everywhere Look In the Mirror
I agree with you S, I think this is a travesty for Red Raider fans and Mike Leach.
RE: The Top 5 HRs in Royals History Still Haunt Yankees and Cardinals Fans
Yeah, about the only homer that I could think of that was more recent was the Carlos Betran walk-off shot to win their home opener at the "K", back in the early 2000s. After that, it's been pretty slow since Bo.
