Thoughts and Prayers to the KC Chiefs organization

Agreed. Wish the thread could be filled with more of these.

I'm sure pushing the game back three hours would be just enough time for Romeo Crennel to move on from this portion of his life.


Some of you want to do something just for the sake of doing something.

If it's what Crennel and the Chiefs want.

That's where the decision should be made.

Play the game. This guy shot and killed someone, not the other way around. It sucks, but this is life and life doesn't stop...ever. Playing tomorrow will provide an escape for the players, coaches and fans in Kansas City. Not playing will only further escalate emotions.

...and I would say the same thing even if the Panthers weren't involved in the game.

Everyone here is adding to the speculation that his dad is a team trainer. His dad is nowhere listed on the team website as a trainer or physician and nothing on Google turns it up either.

I think the proper thing is to let Crennel and Pioli take more than a week off. There are other coaches and personnel to step in.

Depending on the person, those affected by tragedies usually require therapy, counseling, a talk with their chaplain, anything to allow them to realize that the tragedy didn't happen because of them.

100%..

Be careful, some people might find you sickening.

We can't cancel the game

there's monies to be made

So if a Panthers player whose father was on the training staff killed his girlfriend, then drove to Bank of America Stadium and offed himself in front of Rivera and the GM the day before a game, you'd be fine with the NFL making them go on with the game the next day? Even if the players and coaches were dead set against it?

I quote Keyshawn....Come on, man.

Life is short and precious. More often than not, we look at pro athletes and want their life, it's unfortunate that we can only see the outside. My prayers go out to all affected...

Some of you guys should go outside and get some fresh air.

really hoping this doesn't invoke a Rivera stoic-face meme.

If what Mr. Scot posted was true, that he shot himself in front of his coach and his father/team trainer, then the Chiefs have every right to not play this game.

They probably weren't going to show up anyway.

I hurt for this orphaned 3 month old.
