Veach says his negotiations with Dustin Colquitt are going in a positive direction and looks forward to announcing something soon

Damn. Hope we aren't making him the highest paid punter in the league again.

Anywhere to listen for those outside of KC?

810 isn't covering it.

Big one here:

Puke on the Colquitt signing shit.

Meh.

My first question would be

"Why are you here? Get your shit together and go sign some defensive lineman. "

Colquit strikes me as a luxury the Chiefs can't afford.

He's not even a luxury anymore. Can get a better one in the draft at this point.

Peters and Talib about to appear on NFLN for press conference.

Colquitt should take the minimum or get ****ed. I do like having the lefty, though.

Talib dressed in a nice suit. Peters in baggy jeans and Tshirt with his ass hanging out. It's pretty bad when you're outclassed by that douchebag Talib.

810 sucks a huge bag 'o dicks.

Talking ****ing basketball while this presser is happening.
