Rejoice! Herm Edwards has been fired…finally. Bad news, the Chiefs are possibly looking at Chan Gailey as a replacement. Which would just be going from bad to worse. Former Broncos coach Mike Shanahan is apparently another we’re looking at. I’m not so sure about that, though if anyone can right the sinking ship that is Larry Johnson, it’s Shanahan. As long as we don’t hire Gailey things can only get better.
Chiefs fans rejoice! After the Chiefs embarrassing loss to the Charger’s yesterday, the first casualty of this atrocious season is the resignation of King Carl who is now in his 19th year of a 3 year plan. The resignation is effective immediately after the season and it’s about fucking time. Now we need Herm Edwards and his horrible playcalling and even worse clock management to tender his resignation.
While I’m on sports, a very fond farewell to the greatest pitcher I’ve ever seen. Greg Maddux retired a couple weeks back after an incredible career. He was by far my favorite pitcher to watch. I just wish I had gotten to see him pitch live. There was nothing better than being a Braves fan during the heyday of the big three of Smoltz, Glavine and Maddux. It’s amazing, and a little depressing, that we only got one championship during that time. Damn you Eric Gregg! Oh, I remember and will never forget how he gave Florida that series. Anyway, goodbye bulldog. Thanks for the memories. And with that, I’m out.
2 to go. Mike Solari, offensive retard coordinator for the Kansas City Chiefs is no more. Fired today after a horrible season for the Chiefs in his first year as an offensive retard coordinator.
Now we just need to lose Herm and Carl Peterson and I’m a happy camper. Unfortunately I don’t think that’s happening. Maybe we’ll get an offensive coordinator in who can open Herm up a little…and Peterson will patch up the offensive line whether through the draft or free agency.
I’m not optimistic.
The Priest Holmes experiment is ova! Apparently he re-injured his neck late in the game Sunday. Word is, he’s expected to announce his retirement today. It was a small miracle he was able to come back at all. Glad he’s getting out now, before things get worse.
Side note: That Michael Bennett trade ain’t looking too great. We’re down to just one back now in Kolby Smith…not comforting.
Best quote I’ve heard concerning the Chiefs…
“You could turn this offensive unit over to Heidi Fleiss, stuff a 39-gallon Hefty bag with hundred-dollar bills, lather the players in Brut aftershave, ship them all to Nevada’s Mustang Ranch, and they still couldn’t score.” – Jason Whitlock
Solari’s a retard and Herm needs to quit head coaching and stick with being a defensive coordinator. At least I didn’t hear Kris Wilson’s name all game. The constant quick passes to Bowe was quite frustrating however. Priest isn’t a workhorse anymore either. He’s good for MAYBE 15 carries. Get the rook some carries. He looked decent. D-Bowe and Jared Allen are awesome however…correction, fuckin’ awesome!
