That thread is up to 55 pages already, and it only started yesterday. There is some passion there.

I started reading this thread at work yesterday and hope to finish today. Depends on how busy I am as there are a ton of posts. With that being said, I'm glad to see something like this take off and hope they can build off of it. Wonder if we'll see much in the media about it this week or in the future as the plans seem to be to continue this push. Apparently the KC media is all over it. Whitlock is in and 610 has talked about it and Fox 4 has or plans to interview the guy who started it. Maybe it does nothing, but it's nice to see fans rise up and try to be heard.

I'd never even heard of Chiefs Planet before this.

Arrowhead pride said it was the forum

Looks like the banner is done and ready to fly

The banner is good to go. KSN just did an interview with the guy who started it all that'll be on at 6. I think he has or will do a phone interview with Fox 4 in KC. Rumor that Jason Whitlock is contributing to the cause. I do think it would be funny if they had a new banner for every game. Will be interesting to see if they really can build off of this or if it falls flat after this Sunday.

Looks like the local media has picked up on it though. ESPN refused to touch it according to the board. Will be curious if any of the national guys bring it up.

Charles has 125 yards in the first half, but has only lead to 3 KC points. Tied up 3-3 with 0:12 left in first half

Is there a more impotent offense led by a worse starting QB in NFL history? F'ing fumble inside the 1 on a QB sneak? Seriously?

Sloppy game - How do the Chiefs get an INT then turn around and throw an INT

[Shoxfan11]

Multiple turnovers plus some completely terrible officiating leads to a Chiefs loss against what is supposed to be a good Ravens team. Pretty sad.

Chiefs OT Eric Winston comments on KC fans being dirtbags.

"We are athletes, OK? We are athletes. We are not gladiators. This is not the Roman Coliseum. People pay their hard-earned money when they come in here and I believe they can boo, they can cheer and they can do whatever they want, I believe that. We are lucky to play this game. People, it's hard to economic times, and they still pay the money to do this.
"But when somebody gets hurt, there are long lasting ramifications to the game we play, long lasting ramifications to the game we play. I've already kinda come to the understanding that I won't live as long because I play this game and that's OK, that's a choice I've made and a choice all of us have made.


"But when you cheer, when you cheer somebody getting knocked out, I don't care who it is, and it just so happened to be Matt Cassel -- it's sickening. It's 100 percent sickening. I've been in some rough times on some rough teams, I've never been more embarrassed in my life to play football than in that moment right there.


"I get emotional about it because these guys, they work their butts off. Matt Cassel hasn't done anything to you people, hasn't done anything to you people. Hasn't done anything to the media writers that kill him, hasn't done anything wrong to the people that come out here and cheer him. Hey, if he's not the best quarterback then he's not the best quarterback and that's OK. But he's a person. And he got knocked out in a game and we have 70,000 people cheering that he got knocked out?


"Boo him all you want. Boo me all you want. Throw me under the bus. Tell me I'm doing a bad job. Say I gotta protect him more. Do whatever you want. Say whatever you want. But if you are one of those people, one of those people that were out there cheering or even smiled when he got knocked out, I just want to let you know, and I want everybody to know that I think it's sickening and disgusting. We are not gladiators and this is not the Roman Coliseum. This is a game.


"I'll sit here and I'll answer all your questions for the next 30 minutes if you want to ask them and I'll take all the responsibility I can take because I deserve it but don't blame a guy, and don't cheer for a guy who has done everything in his power to play as good as he can for the fans.


"It's sickening. And I was embarrassed. I want every single one of you people to put this on your station and in your newspapers because I want every fan to know that. This is a game that's going to cost us a lot down the road. That's OK. We picked it, we deserve it and I don't want your pity. But we have a lot of problems as a society if people think that's OK.
"I'll get off my soap box and you guys can ask any football question you want."

CBS showed 2 fans wearing paper sacks during the game - Why waste your paycheck to do that ?
