A quality reason to hate ESPN

They literally hired Jeff Triplette to be a "rules analyst" Quote:

I'm of the belief that Adam Teicher only has his job at ESPN to report a deliberately negative spin on the Chiefs.
He wrote an article, today, about how they didn't do enough to fix the defense after losing DJ and Peters. He didn't bother mentioning Berry and Dee Ford returning...or that their injuries played a big part in the defense falling off last year. Didn't bother pointing out that both Fuller and Hitchens were higher rated players last season. He was also the one responsible for reporting Mahomes single bad practice and creating a national buzz about it....he didn't bother emphasizing that they were testing out new plays to see what works. Chiefs closed their practices to media this year..mainly because KC lost their beat writer and this tool would be the only outlet. They were correct because his one report was the aforementioned Mahomes bash. If you analyze his writing style EVERYTHING has a negative caveat built in...no other team's reporter on ESPN does this. Denver's beat writer is almost the exact opposite...optimistic even when they suck. It's like NFL wants everyone in KC to expect the worst outcome....so they can pull off Triplette like horseshit and the fans are preconditioned to accept it.

**** over the Chiefs, get rewarded by the league. Worked for Pioli, who I will always believe was sent here to do exactly what he did, and now it's worked for Triplette.
Small market teams that attempt to challenge the order of things are bad. |

If he has any kind of business venture or online presence, I say we do what Kentucky fans did to that ref and make his life a living hell!

Makes perfect sense when you think about it. There is no forward progress at ESPN.
