Our thoughts and prayers are with the Chiefs fans

Being fans of the team that had to go thru something similar and survived, our thoughts are with the you

That is all.

Forget football and trash talk. This is the best and classiest fan message board and will act like it.

I just have trouble trying to understand the choice Belcher made. You have an amazing life. Was something that happened to him or between him and his gf so bad that he had to commit murder and suicide? Just doesn't make any sense to me...

Thoughts to the young lady's family/friends and to Chief nation.

Very sad...

the simplest answer, he wasn't in a right frame of mind.

not at all justifying anything. not trying to explain the inexplicable and, honestly, despicable actions that guy took this morning, but the simple and easy answer was for some reason he was presented with a situation that sent him into a tailspin that he couldn't get out of and went out of control, killing his girlfriend. he could have walked away, but he didn't. he could have chosen any of a hundred alternatives, but he allowed himself to get lost in the moment.

probably realizing the magnitude of what he did, he allowed himself to get lost again in the moment and did what he thought would bring the proper conclusion to the matter.

i hate it, but i know it's a part of life and it's always been there in pretty much every culture. doesn't really matter what people think of belcher. the only thing that matters now is that not only is there a team and a fanbase lost, angry, hurting, saddened, and confused, but there are now two families having to deal with this horrible tragedy. one probably feeling guilty for what their son/grandson/brother did...although they shouldn't...and wishing that there was something that they could have done to stop it. the other lost a daughter/grandaughter/sister to a senseless act.

the real victim and the thing that makes this the most saddening aspect is that now there is a daughter left to grow up without her mom and dad sharing her life with her.

My thoughts go out to both families. His as well as hers. You don't do something like this unless you are a seriously troubled individual, and he most likely suffered from clinical depression.

And wow, this had to have been really tough for Romeo and Pioli.

Hopefully the victim's mom is able to care for the baby. Just a tragedy all the way around.

    • Yea when teams see a gun charge they rightly pause but this seems like a big misunderstanding. 
    • Sorry man you lost me at "Teppers have evolved as owners". Limped into playoffs at 8-9 not even above .500 Tepper is trash as an owner bro and that's not even a discussion at this point. 37-83 w/l ratio. Nuff said.... Morgan tho, he's cooking and it ain't cuz of Teppers leadership
    • After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...
