KSU celebrating, warning, bad words

Rent free is the right title. KU definitely occupies some KSU head space (as if they have any to spare) lol

@Crimsonorblue22 the spoons were hot in that town.

This made me giggle. A lot. A 2017 draft review for Patrick Mahomes.
USA Today (didn’t see the point of giving the schmuck’s name…) gave the Chiefs a C-minus for picking Mahomes. He wrote: “Calling Mahomes a project is a major understatement. He’s nowhere near ready to play in the NFL. And, honestly, he may never be. Between his inconsistent accuracy due to poor mechanics, his tendency to bail from clean pockets and his lack of field vision, he’s going to leave as many big plays on the field as he creates. This was a risky pick.”
-
@nuleafjhawk people worry too much about mechanics. Same in basketball, Larry Birds form wasn’t the greatest but man he made a ton shots with it lol.

@BShark Marty put the chiefs back on the map IMO just couldn’t quite finish the deal.
-
@kjayhawks yeah. That pic is a bit more personal for me because you can see he isn’t all there. Reminds me of my step dad before he passed.

I hear a couple guys named Tom and Bill are the primary suspects.

Watching the parade and rally live on ESPN2.
I remember seeing the last one in person, standing near 10th & Main as the motorcade passed by. Great memory, great feeling.

49ers fans are still big mad

@nuleafjhawk The Bears brilliant front office talent evaluators must have read that article and said naw, let’s pick Trubisky instead. At least we didn’t have to waste any nervous energy on a playoff run this year.

Just received my Super Bowl victory edition of the February 3 KC Star!
Fun to read, although “King Them” seems like a weird headline.
Item of note: Inside Section 1, there is an article about the first death outside of China from the coronavirus.
-
@mayjay from where?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I ordered it from the Star website a day or two after the game. Also ordered a coffee cup with a front page repro to match the one I have from the 1970 SB!
-
@mayjay I meant where was the death from?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Sorry! I think that was the guy from China who went to the Phillipines and died there. I didn’t read it closely yet 'cuz I was reading the Chiefs stuff.
Amazing to think wistfully of merely 7 weeks ago as “a different time”…
-
They’re showing the Chiefs-Rams 2018 Monday night game this evening on ESPN.
A real heart-wrencher, but an epic game nonetheless.
-
How many fans have watched the super bowl game again during this horrible time of no sports? Mahomes really didn’t have a great game. The 40 yard pass to Hill that started the 3 touchdown comeback was so late that Hill had to wait on it. If you haven’t watched it again, I found the full game on You Tube. It’s crazy how late in the game the Chiefs scored their 3 final TD’s. If you haven’t watched it again in the last 24 hours, just watch the last 7 minutes to get your sports fix for the day. Yes, I’m desperate for anything sports related this summer. The next season of Last Chance U is supposed to air on Netflix on July 28, with the new season of QB 1 starting in August.
-
@stoptheflop thanks for the ideas for sports programming. I’ll check it out!
-
@stoptheflop I know what you mean! I watched it again about 6 weeks ago and I was like “crap - there’s no way we win this game”. The last 6 or 7 minutes was truly unbelievable.
-
Having Mahomes means there’s never a “there’s no way we can win this game” moment.
-
20 of 22 starters coming back. Added a RB and a LB.
Looking good

RUN IT EFFING BACK.

I was so close to actually turning it off. Glad I didn’t.
-
I was at my parents for the Texans game and I almost just went home because I was having to be polite when I just wanted to scream
-
@BShark that would be comparable to giving up on the Jayhawks!🥰

screaming internally

I still think the linebacker corps and offensive line are suspect. Hopefully they can make a run again, no telling how long Sammy, Travis and Tyrek stay in KC.
-
@kjayhawks no one hides a suspect oline like Andy Reid. Mahomes is decent as well.

Watkins is probably gone after this year because it is the last year of his contract. He can probably get more on the open market.
Hill is signed until 2023, so he’s locked in for the next three seasons.
Kelce is signed through 2022.
Hardman is on his rookie deal. Edwards Helaire is on a rookie deal.
Simply put, the Chiefs are actually pretty well positioned right now with most of their big time guys (Mahomes, Hill, Kelce, Mathieu, Jones, Clark) signed for multiple years and a decent group of young players like Hardman, Thornhill, etc.
-
@justanotherfan right, I think if they want to win more titles, it will come in the next 3 seasons. Guys these days hold out a lot more and ask for trades more often. I hope they can be the next patriots but it will be much harder playing in a decent division.

It’s tough to project anything more than 2-3 seasons out anyway. Three years ago Andrew Luck was supposed to be turning into a top QB in the AFC for years to come.
The Chiefs are well positioned to compete in each of the next several seasons. They will have to reload, but if they do, they can compete for another 3-4 year cycle. Rinse, repeat.
-
@justanotherfan yep, the packers and Seahawks were both supposed to be the next dynasty but neither could do so.
