Yes, you read that right, the Chiefs offered to take Tony Gonzales, who was in his final season, a 5th round pick from the Falcons, and the Falcons REFUSED.

The Falcons are done, with or without Gonzo.  They might as well had pretty much taken a free 5th rounder, and allowed him to at least have a chance at a championship in the place where he spent most of his career.  It would have been a class move, but we're talking about the Falcons.

They didn't make the trade simply from a business standpoint. You make that trade and your telling your team and your fans that the season is over. Can't have that. I knew they wouldn't make the trade unless they were mathematically out of it. Washington started off 3-6 and made the playoffs. That has to be their mindset, you can't give up on the season when there is still hope

As someone who lives in KC (Panthers fan, Chiefs observer), I continue to be impressed at Tony's Teflon-like ability to not come across as a whiner with this 'trade me to a contender' business. I understand he didn't outright say that here, but wouldn't every player prefer to play for a winning team? He played on plenty of winning teams in both KC and Atl, so not sure what gives him a pass.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
