Coaches not being nice make professional athletes sad pandas: “Chiefs Pro Bowl guard Brian Waters asked the organization Thursday to release or trade him this offseason, according to a source with knowledge of the situation. […] Waters, according to the source, was offended and shocked by what he perceived to be the arrogance of Todd Haley and Scott Pioli.” [Jason Whitlock/Kansas City Star]

Room for growth: “You put him at 215-220 pounds, with another 10-15 pounds of muscle on him, and he’s going to drive some balls out of the ballpark. That will come. I want him to stay with what he’s doing right now. He’s in a BP group with some big boppers, but I tell him, “You can’t worry about what they’re doing.” [Indians.com via Lets Go Tribe]

Doesn’t the Cloak of Secrecy sound very Harry Potter? Yep, my football team sounds like a Harry Potter book. “The cloak of secrecy will soon be revealed in Berea as the Cleveland Browns make their overtures to pending free agents in just a matter of hours. To date, new head coach Eric Mangini hasn’t offered much of a hint of what direction the team is going. Cleveland’s areas of need are easy to point out. The team could use help at linebacker, running back and in the secondary. But there has been little information given when it comes to potential targets.” [James Walker/ESPN]

Whenever I think of the Chiefs, I can’t help but think to myself, “Great googly moogly.”

And please read the comments on that Chiefs article and then go look at the comments on Cleveland.com from the Rogers article. I think Browns fans and Chiefs fans could have one heck of a party together.

As long as they pass on Curry, I’ll bring the chips and dip.
Viva la Misery Loves Company
KELLEN WINSLOW JUST GOT TRADED TO TAMPA!
Viva la Haoli? Paley? Clearly we got the better coach/GM combo on that one.
Perhaps “my feelings are hurt” really IS the new excuse for wanting a new deal before the CBA expires.
Bye K2.
gone for undisclosed draft picks…
Worst. Decision. Ever.
Ok, well perhaps not “ever”, but I still disagree. Those better be some choice picks.
