January 23 was the greatest day of my life. OK, that might be a bit of an overstatement. But in terms of sheer elation, friday night has got to rank near the top. I first got the news around 5pm. Over the course of the next hour, my phone was straight blowin’ up. I got [...]
The Big Matt’s Chiefs Chat 2009 “I was wrong” awards!
Since I’m constantly raggin’ on Herm supporters and “rebuild” proponents for being proven so embarrassingly wrong about everything, I think its only fair to own up to my own share of errors and incorrect judgements. I may be obsessed with everything Chiefs, but that hasn’t prevented me from being wrong at least as often as [...]
What is going on here?
I hate to get on Scott Pioli’s case so early, but this is starting to look kind of lame. He’s been on the job for over a week and not only has nothing happened, we haven’t even gotten any hints or inklings. This top secret, CIA style operation is totally unnecessary. Surely Pioli has a [...]
Myths and legends…..actually just myths
Herm Edwards is not afraid to make excuses. We all know this. Herm has no shame, and will stop at nothing to deflect criticism from himself. It’s how he do. One preferred method is to throw his players under the bus. Did you see his smile when he made that comment about coaching a college [...]
Quotent Quotables
I’m still trying to digest this Pioli hiring. I honestly haven’t been able to sleep since I heard about it. Not because of Pioli himself, although I think he was a great hire. No, whats got me so amped is the fact that I could very well wake up tomorrow to find out that Herm [...]
A Niiiiiiiiiiiiice!
It’s official: The Chiefs have signed Scott Pioli. This is a good day people. Finally an end to the Winter of our Discontent. You hear the (Kendrell)bell Herm? It tolls for thee. Douchebag.
Horrifying rumor
I’ve read that one of the sticking points in the Pioli deal is that he wants Herm fired and Clunt wants to keep him. I don’t really believe this, but its scary nonetheless. If we lose out on the top GM candidate because of loyalty to Herm I’m done with the Chiefs. Forever. Thats not [...]
Still waiting
This is painful. Day after day, and no news. When I leave work I have no internet access, so I’m basically just sitting at my house waiting for someone to call and tell me who our new GM is and, more importantly, that Herm Edwards has been fired. Nothing yet. Kind of calls into question [...]
Housecleaning
Herm Edwards still has his job. As most of you can probably guess, I’m not real happy about that. I know Clunt wants to make the GM hire first, but lets just get Herm out of here already. The fact that Herm still has his job while Shanahan and Mangini have been fired is laughable. [...]
