Top 10 Ways The Kansas City Chiefs’ Offseason Could Have Been Worse

Written by Arrowhead Addict | A Kansas City Chiefs Sports Blog | July 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Arrowhead Addict (Chiefs)

Regardless of what offseason grade you’d personally give the Red and Gold, I think we all know things could have been much worse. For instance…
10. Brian Waters flies to Kansas City and throws a temper tantrum in the Chiefs’ complex. (wait a minute…)
9. Mike Vrabel totally blows off all OTAs. (wait a minute…)
8. The Chiefs [...]

Matt Jones To The Chiefs Revisited

Written by Arrowhead Addict | A Kansas City Chiefs Sports Blog | July 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Arrowhead Addict (Chiefs)

Just got done reading an interesting post on troubled free agent receiver Matt Jones, who I’ve always been enamored with, over on FanHouse. Here’s a snippet:
But here’s what those worrisome tidbits are hiding: whichever NFL team finally takes a chance on Jones will be locking in a guy capable of putting up 1,000-plus yards and [...]

Bernard Pollard: The Chiefs’ Best Player?

Written by Arrowhead Addict | A Kansas City Chiefs Sports Blog | July 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Arrowhead Addict (Chiefs)

While looking over the Chiefs’ Madden 2010 ratings, I began to ponder an interesting question: “Is Bernard Pollard the Chiefs’ best player?” After thinking it over for a little while, it’s hard for me not to answer that question with a pretty firm “yes.” Even though the Madden folks do their homework, Pollard’s score of [...]

Pitchforks And Torches?

Written by Arrowhead Addict | A Kansas City Chiefs Sports Blog | July 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Arrowhead Addict (Chiefs)

Or should I make that Tomahawks and Flaming Arrows?
Today I ponder the notion of whether where a team owner happens to live has anything to do whether or not that team is successful.  So everybody is clear on this, I do not know the answer to that question and I do not have anything more than anecdotal evidence to contribute to the discussion. More importantly, [...]

Hilarious Erin Andrews/Jason Whitlock FOX Sports Image

Written by Arrowhead Addict | A Kansas City Chiefs Sports Blog | July 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Arrowhead Addict (Chiefs)

To absolutely nobody’s surprise, the nothing-if-not-opportunistic, part-time Chiefs columnist Jason Whitlock has used the Erin Andrews peephole scandal as an opportunity to dogpile on Deadspin and the sports blogosphere. That’s interesting and all, I suppose, but it’s kind of old news for Big Sexy. He’s been there, done that.
The real story here is that ridiculous [...]

Brown Over Pollard = Good News For The Chiefs? Um…

Written by Arrowhead Addict | A Kansas City Chiefs Sports Blog | July 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Arrowhead Addict (Chiefs)

If it’s not Whitlock, then it’s mofo Teicher. This mindjob is now suggesting that our best young defensive player getting beaten out for a starting spot by an aging, possibly even washed-up, vet would be “good news.” From The Kansas City Star:
4. Color them Brown
It’s a good sign if veteran strong safety Mike Brown wins [...]

Arrowhead Adventures And Section Chief Fun

Written by Arrowhead Addict | A Kansas City Chiefs Sports Blog | July 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Arrowhead Addict (Chiefs)

Well, it’s been some weeks since you last heard from me Addicts. My last trip to Arrowhead took me to the draft party and all the adventure that it brings every year.  I made my yearly trek to Augusta for the Masters, and I just returned from Fenway and watching the surprisingly close KC – [...]

Peterson Vs. Pollard: The Search For A Chiefs Franchise Quarterback

Written by Arrowhead Addict | A Kansas City Chiefs Sports Blog | July 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Arrowhead Addict (Chiefs)

We’ve often joked here at Arrowhead Addict that Bernard Pollard did in three years of playing safety what King Carl Peterson couldn’t do in twenty years as a GM — find our Chiefs a young franchise quarterback of the future. All jokes aside, it’s pretty much the truth. That’s the reason I’ve constructed a timeline [...]

What About Herm? The Effects Of The Herm Era Linger

Written by Arrowhead Addict | A Kansas City Chiefs Sports Blog | July 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Arrowhead Addict (Chiefs)

After three years of suffering through bad coaching and poor game decisions, I finally thought in January we were rid of Herm Edwards. I soon realized that he again landed on his feet with his dialect and coach speech, this time bagging a job at ESPN. Nevertheless, I felt he would be far away on [...]

Merlin’s Magic: Training Camp Preview Edition

Written by Arrowhead Addict | A Kansas City Chiefs Sports Blog | July 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Arrowhead Addict (Chiefs)

OK Addicts, it’s training camp time. The Chiefs are off to River Falls and it’s time to look at the keys to training camp. What are the important areas to look at this year?
1] Cassel has to be the man. The biggest pile of BS coming out of Pioli/Haley is the idea that there is [...]

Clipper Player Profile: Chris Kaman

Written by Short White Boy | July 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Fully Clips (Clippers)

It seems as though everyone’s given up on Kaman and are just focusing on the Clippers’ youth movement in the years to come built around Eric Gordon and Blake Griffin. Forget down the road, right now they have one of the few good centers in the entire league. One who can play both [...]

Is Vince Carter Underrated?

Written by andrewmelnick | July 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Howard the Dunk (Magic)

Since the Magic acquired Vince Carter and Hedo Turkoglu subsequently signed with the Toronto Raptors, analysts and fans have been criticizing the move that brought Carter to Orlando. Most sportswriters have suggested that it would have been a better move to throw all of the money at Turkoglu and keep rookie standout Courtney Lee rather [...]

 Here are the official power rankings for Ebony Bird. Power rankings do not predict the outcome of a season, they simply rank the teams from 1-32; 1 being the strongest and 32 the lowly of the low. It would be great for you to leave critiques and your own power rankings by commenting at the [...]
