You just never really know what is going on with someone.


Are you serious?

We shouldn't even talk about this though because it has zero chance of happening.

I imagine it would be a heavy one. You're talking about the Chiefs players making a decision that is going to cost hundreds of thousands in concessions, millions of dollars in advertising, and completely screws up competitive balance where a team is "throwing a game." Not to mention sports books, fantasy football, etc.... There is an enormous financial impact that neither the Chiefs nor the NFL want to assume for this. It's insensitive, but we are literally talking about one decision that will have millions upon millions of dollars in impact.

The Chiefs will play and the NFL will make certain the Chiefs know they have to put their best foot forward. It's a shitty situation but I'm sure everyone knows why that decision has to be made.

She really knows how to get us all riled up. I'll give her that.

Nobody can stand her either. I don't think there is a single soul on this board that likes her, yet she still shows up.

I seriously wouldn't wish that fate on anyone, May the Lord have mercy on his soul.

This is dumb as hell.

I feel similarly but since I have nothing good to say about this situation I'm just going to keep my trap shut for the day.

Of course, but I'd like to know the facts just the same.

In such a competitive environment, I can imagine that it's easy to lose focus on the importance of what goes on when you go home at the end of the day.

I hope so too. Not too much faith in this though seeing that one of their legends committed suicide and not much changed publicly after that.There are many layers of resistance much like in the military but they have made strides so to might the NFL.

@Jovan_Belcher: I am the agent for Jovan. At this time we are asking for prayers and sympathy. This is a very hard time. Thank you.

Nobody condones his actions but if rumors are true it's not as crazy as you might think. l


following is complete rumor/conjecture/hypothesis:


1. Girlfriend decides, for whatever reason, that today is the day she tells Belcher that 'their' child is not biologically his.

2. Belcher loses it and in his anger and grief grabs a gun and shoots her

3. after his grief/rages subsides he looks down at what he's done.

He's killed the woman he loves ... he career is over ... his life(as he knows it) is over ... he's going to jail for 20+ years. Depression sets in and he decides he doesn't deserve or want to live with it.

So he decides to say his goodbyes and take his own life. The Chiefs are his only family or maybe his only family close enough to visit.

drives to Arrowhead, says 'Goodbye' and as soon as Police arrive and force the timing of the decision, he pulls trigger.


just a possibility

if the Chiefs want to play as reported, who are we to tell them not to?

Not sure that this person should be sharing this information (doctor-patient confidentiality and all that), but if true, it gives us a little bit of insight into Belcher's personality.

Doesn't that end once they are deceased?
