Chiefs RE: D. Bowe...just overheard on sports radio: - Page 3

T-post Tom · 03-01-2013, 06:42 PM

From Mike (610) on the Late Show: The only reason there's any conversation about D. Bowe's past behavior....is because he's black. If he were white, there would be no talk about his past issues.

Where's the controversy? I didn't realize that this conversation was going on. Most all Chiefs' fans I know want him signed. I haven't heard much other than an occasional laugh at "the Clarks" comment. I know he showed up overweight one season and that the Peeholy Gestapo nixed "The Bowe Show". And we all got a laugh out of the "importing" comments. But I haven't heard any fans mention that stuff in ages. So who's having this conversation about Bowe being a knucklehead? Or is this more hyperbole/race baiting to generate listeners?

No, I don't think Bowe is as good as them.

I do think he could be with solid QB play.

YEAH and solid QB play aint gonna happen with Alex Smiff at the helm...his numbers will drop and he will get frustrated....he would be best advised by his agent to leave town....1-2 years with Smiff will ruin his career..Black or White.

I'll have to completely (but respectfully) disagree with you on that. Fans were forgiving of his DUIs because of his on-the-field performance. (His penchant for being the affable class clown didn't hurt his cause either.) That and the fact that King Peterson drew a line in the sand with his public declaration of Allen being a "player at risk." At that time, you could easily curry favor with the Chiefs' fanbase by feuding with Peterson. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."

Some people may have disapproved of Jared Allen based on DUI's but the city would have loved him no matter what color he was. We have two OLB's that both have marijuana checkmarks against them and they're black and I haven't ever heard anyone say a negative thing about the character of either. Jared Allen was too much fun, if he would've caused a wreck and killed someone in one of his DUI's then sure the city would've dismissed him, but his color still wouldn't be a factor.

That'll put us above 810 in the ratings." Then the next day you'll hear Danny Parkins on the radio almost pleading with listeners to not turn the dial, and that they bring us breaking news via conversations with Steve Breaston and Brandon Albert, even though Albert called into the show. The only reason I listen to 610 sometimes is because 810 is talking about boring stuff or on commercial. I liked Nick when he was there, but the only person I can stang besides Klingler is Carrington Harrison. I like the Big Show, but can't stand Vernier, he's whiny, and when the other two tried to talk to him about why Alex Smith is a terrible deal Vernier says, "I get it, I understand, you can't argue with it.".... but then he argues with it.

I feel the exact same way about 610.

Appears to want to remain a Chief in spite of the endless stream of losses they've suffered. He once flexed at the camera... WHAT? HE ****ING FLEXED AT THE CAMERA

CUT THAT LOCKER ROOM CANCER

For all your "rape" tough guy shit, you sure are one dumb mother****er. His supplements, lol, nobody in the NFL even bothers with that shit other than maybe protein powder. And maybe some female in your family getting busted up would be all rape, rape, rape, rape in your head. Funny shit then.

I'm not trying to be stupid, but that shit has offended my for quite awhile, sorry for getting pissed.

**MahiMike** · 03-02-2013, 01:38 AM

This just in - a black dude played the race card.

Just how many cards are in that deck anyways?

Bowe has had a shit carousel of QBs throwing to him and still has managed 3 1000yd seasons. 4 if you count his 995 rookie season. The seasons he played 16 games, he averaged over 1000yds.

And a good 65% of those yards are from garbage time.

Mark Kasl to Bowe was the garbage time version of Montana to Rice.

Sure he's dumb as a post but who gives a crap he's also a ba mofo.
Back up the Brinks truck and make it happen.

Is Bowe perfect? Of course not. Even his strongest supporters would say he's second tier WR(below the likes of Megatron and Fitzgerald).

He is, however, undoubtedly the best WR drafted by the team since Otis Taylor.

I don't get why he has so many detractors in the KC fanbase. I remember caller after caller wanting him cut after he dropped a TD at Indy in 2010.

Really shouldn't ever be surprised at local fan idiocy. One guy at work passionately hates D. Bowe but thinks McCluster is an electric playmaker who's been victimized by poor coaching.
