Kansas City Chiefs

The Kansas City Chiefs have put themselves on the proverbial ropes the first 4 weeks of the 2015 NFL season, losing 3 out of those first 4 contests, two in heartbreaking fashion. It seemed a welcome reprieve would be the dysfunctional franchise from the Windy City, otherwise known as the “Monsters of the Midway”. The 2015 version of the Chicago Bears resembled nothing even close to your grandpa’s Midway Monsters. The Bears were weak at the wide receiver position, and quarterback Jay Cutler had missed half of the games already this year due to injury. The defense was suspect and the offense even more so. The Kansas City faithful could only assume this would be the perfect prescription for what ailed the Chiefs, putting their season back on course. It was not to be. During the 1st quarter it started to become evident that the dysfunctional nature of the Chief’s own offense was more a result of their own play as opposed to any…

Kansas City Chiefs (11-5) at Houston Texans (9-7) What a season it has been for the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs were left for dead after starting the season 1-5, averaging 21.2 points per game over their first six contests. Since the dreadful start, Kansas City closed the regular season with 10 straight wins and has averaged 27.8 points per game over that stretch. Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith and a stout Kansas City defense have been the primary reason for the team’s turnaround. Smith has…

When asked who he was, many would say the original owner of the Kansas city Chiefs. In reality, he was so much more than that. Despite having his most accomplishments in American Football, he helped shape 4 lasting, popular american sports leagues. He has ties to the National Football League (NFL), The National Basketball Association (NBA), The North American Soccer League (NASL), which would later become part of Major League Soccer (MLS), and the World Tennis Championships (WTC). His…

talk about, and I was almost not going to be able to go. Two weeks ago I bought a brand new 1967 split window corvette and spent all of my money. But when I found out my favorite team, the Kansas City Chiefs, were playing in the Championship game I had to find a way to pay for the extremely overpriced ticket. I have gone to plenty of football games and the tickets have never cost this much. $12 is a ridiculous amount for a ticket to watch a bunch of sweaty men hitting each other and wrestling…

It was a cold evening that Saturday. The chill of the wind stung my face when I walked outside. There was a snowstorm moving in. Since the following day was busy with driving to Kansas City and the going to the NFL Kansas City Chiefs vs. Indianapolis Colts game, my boyfriend, Justin, and I decided to take the evening to relax. We made the decision to eat pizza and binge watch American Horror Story on Netflix. Nevertheless, we had to idle away the time before the pizza arrived and decided to go…

Young and star receiver Jerry Rice annihilated the Chargers. Young won Super Bowl XXIX by throwing a record six touchdown passes. Legendary Dolphins coach, Don Shula, had his watch stolen by a fan as he was carried off the field by his players after their victory at Super Bowl VII. It was later found and returned to its owner. Buffalo Bills’ stars Jim Kelly and Andre Reed played in four consecutive Super Bowls from 1991 to 1994, setting a record. They have yet to win the top spot. It was during…

Philadelphia had won its first ever super bowl, and the city fell into a period of rejoice. The streets filled with happy fans ready to celebrate their beloved teams first championship. However, the happiness of this moment did not come without its horrors. Fans put themselves in dangerous and uncourteous situations that give Philadelphia a reputation in the United States as…

On Friday night, the New England Patriots played the Detriot Lions in a preseason game. Even though the team won the game, the biggest story coming out of that game is not good news for the team. During the first quarter, Wide Receiver Julian Edelman suffered a knee injury when running a route and he had to be carted out of the game and did not come back. Last season in 16 games, Edelman had 91 receptions, 1,106 receiving yards, and 3 touchdowns. Leading up to last season, the Patriots were…
