The KC Chiefs just blocked me on Twitter. LOL Last night, I tweeted that for the 4th year in a row, the Chiefs are at the bottom of salary cap spending and that the owner, Clark Hunt, is hoarding cap dollars. The Chiefs commitment to mediocrity has made me not care much about being a fan... They responded with this DM. http://imgur.com/7VbfJ
I responded that it is good to know that the KC Chiefs have an immature teenager running their social media.
I, as a fan for my whole life of nearly 40 years, who have never seen the Chiefs in a Superbowl, nor have I seen a playoff win in nearly 20 years, nor have I seen a QB drafted in the last 27 years... I have a right to be pissed. The Kansas City Chiefs have no right to be pissy toward the fans. We are the ones paying your salaries. Shame on you, Chiefs. Oh, and congrats on 50 years of being in KC. 10 years of greatness, followed by 40 years of pathetic profiteering. [Reply]

All the Chiefs and most business’s care about is the smell of Green. Ive said forever that the best way to get real change is to vote with your wallet. Not votes and comments on a message board. [Reply]

Just how fucking awesome would it be if it was Pioli himself that responded to TW's tweet?

so lemme get this straight, tdub can tell them to FO, but since they are a big public company they have to wear a muzzle and cant say nothin? then he gets to complain about 'midwestern values' and unprofessionalism?
i'm no apologist, and I happen to agree 100% w/ his point, but he needs to grow a pair and quit whinin. [Reply]
