This.

So much this.

Go join an activist site. Talk to some people who already feel like you do.

Or keep wasting your time here, choice is yours. You have freedom (see what I did there)?

This will pass with time. A year from now nobody will give a shit about this.

Eleazar will pretend she does. ROFL

:LOL:The moral majority:LOL:

Elezar is Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson rolled up into one.

Elezar is frustrating, always front in center in these types of threads virtue signalling all over the place.

Frank Clark I guess? and if you are into that one that means you think even if someone ****ed up years ago he deserves no benefit of the doubt.

With the whole hill situation and the hunt one last year, trading for Clark brings up issues

Again, it is what it is

You mean like not winning a Super Bowl in 50 ****ing years?

Seriously, **** off.

Question, what's more important?

Winning or the character of every player on the team? If you would actively rather have a less talented team because they are good people, you have the wrong hobby, plain and simple.

The narrative doesn't bother me as long as it's not a distraction. What bothers me big time is that not only is there not a hit piece on Dorsey, they're actually rooting for kareem hunt as a reform story. If the media hates what the Chiefs are, that is on Dorsey way more than it is veach or even hunt.

Ok so we have 2 people in how long?

The stuff about the Hunt family is kind of laughable. Imagine if you went digging in everyone's family history and pulled out all the skeletons.

Let the first person here who doesn't have a couple piece of shit relatives raise their hand.

I don’t think anyone is saying that by character and culture do matter

Talent is talent for sure but you can’t have a locker room full of assholes

This article makes it seem like DV is a Kansas City Chiefs issue, not an NFL issue or an American issue or a global issue. It draws some pretty tenuous lines between things like the extended Hunt family's distant past, some nobody stadium operations guy who killed his ex, and the Kareem Hunt incident-- which, by the way, wasn't even domestic violence. But that distinction gets lost in the process of trying to fit everything into their pre-determined conclusion.

The Chiefs absolutely need to get better about this sort of thing. But so does every other professional sports team on earth, regardless of the precise statistics. So does America as a whole. This is a society that consistently devalues women, and that's ****ed up. But this article does a disservice to that fact by narrowing the focus to a single football team and treating it like the disease and not just one of countless symptoms.

Yes, I have the crazy idea that you can win without garbage human beings on the roster

What if the players like Hill and Clark?

I know Frank Clark was well liked in Seattle.
