Post by: sonofdaxjones on January 21, 2007, 10:56:13 PM
currently thinking about the KC Chefs and laughing.

But hey, Willie Roaf just might come back, right Carl??

Chefs . . . next to the Redskins and the Lions, the NFL's most dumbass organization.

The Oakland Raiders and Arizona Cardinals may have something to say about that.

I am about 4 miles from the new stadium.

But that isn't going to help them win.

The problem is Paul Bidwell.  He's not interested in fielding a championship team.  He's just interested in the revenue sharing.

the stadium may not help them win, but it will fill it up to watch them lose. cash money.

When they were taking bids for the stadium, they got a bid that said.."I'll lease the land to you for 99 years at a $1 a year.  I'll put in whatever you need infrastructure wise, you just let me name it and develop the land around it."

The day after the bid submissions were supposedly closed, Tempe was late getting theirs in and the committee voted to allow them to submit, even though they were late.  Originally, Tempe wasn't going to, but the Bidwell's persuaded the city to do so under the premise that the Bidwells would get the development rights.

When the awarding meeting took place, Tempe won it (no surprise) but when Tempe did the proposal, the location was in a place that was in airport landing pattern, and at that point in the landing, Aircraft are about 600-900 feet.  The planes would fly directly over the stadium, and the FAA had not seen the proposal.    When the FAA did see it, they nullified it.

They had a second round of bids, but by that time, John Long, the guy who made the great proposal I mentioned first, was already suing for the sports authority for irregularities in the original bid process.   Eventually, it was awarded to Glendale after Tempe decided not to enter.

Politics suck, but it's a great stadium.  The AZ tax payers said "We built this to keep you here, but you need to field a winning team."  The Bidwell's received offers from several cities to move but the NFL nixed them because of the market saturation of other teams.  LA didn't want them.   All I need it one REALLY GOOD project to land that will make me a billionaire and I will buy the Cardinals outright.  If they just followed the Jerry Colangelo method, AZ would have a contender.

The Raiders have been to a Super Bowl..this decade.  The Raiders are funny, they will have 7-8 years of total dumbassery and haplessness, but then they will rattle off a few good years.  Cardinals, well, they have won a playoff game since the last time we have. 

I'm thinking the Lions have to be the most dumbass organization in the NFL, followed closely by the Chiefs.

It's too bad Snyder basically wasted a year of Lilja's eligibility in 2002.  That 2004 line was horrid (especially on the inside) and Sproles suffered behind it.

Snyder did the same thing wasting one year of Wafford's eligibility. If not for 2 series against some horrid team, Wafford would be returning for another year.

he wasted more than that.  snyder was recruiting lilja out of hs (full qualifier) but backed off when he got kicked off the team for attending a party his senior season.

we could have had lilja for five years, counting redshirt.

Yeah, the Chiefs organization is terrible.  I mean we just made the playoffs and went 10-6 the year before.  Not to mention we have the best running back in the NFL behind LT.

Not suprising that a dumbass ku fan who thinks 3-5 in the big 12 is a great season would think the Chiefs are among the elite nfl franchises.

10-6?  No playoffs. 

Hired Herm.  Went 9-7 and with help, landed in the last spot.  Went until the 3:30 mark of the 3rd quarter before gaining a first down.

LJ: Great RB.  Poor blocker.  Studio gangster.
