So coach Romeo crennel WATCHED his player off himself but the game still going on

[Absolut]

really what would moving the game back a day do? inconveniences literally thousands of workers and fans for what? the team doesnt give a fukk about playing, why should anyone else have issue with it

 

[Jerz-2]

Their natural instinct will always be to play that's all they know. Football has been coached that way to them since grade school. It you hurt, whether it's mentally or physically you play on, but sometimes management gotta protect people from themselves.

I'm not saying you gotta cancel the game, but give them a day or two to deal with the grief a little bit.

...why are you trying to dictate to THEM how they do or should feel? Have you polled them so as to definitively suggest that they need "protection from themselves"? Can you conclusively state the percentage of Chiefs players in that locker room whom you feel need to "deal with the grief"? For all we know, some of them may be like "damn, dude went out on some bytch shyt, fukk that nikka, then", who knows? Point is, you don't know HOW they feel, and I'm sure that if a nikka was too broken up to play he wouldn't play.

Y'all on here completely discounting the ability of grown ass men to discern shyt for themselves, acting like y'all have the authority to speak FOR them because they're somehow too stupid from too many blows to the head, or perhaps so blindly allied with the football gods to think rationally for themselves.

You know damn well there would be a thread up in here and we'd all be watching it because we'd wanna know how the team would play after this craziness and so would everyone else. They'd have casual fans tuning in because this is one of those stories that goes beyond the sports page. They'd have an interview with Pioli and maybe Crennel at halftime. Whichever network would try to paint ole boy in a positive light even though he shot his BM and offed himself because the players will have done some sort of tribute.

Tragedy attracts viewers. Tell me I'm wrong. I know I ain't.

I think they should at least get a day. It wouldn't be the first time the NFL has had a double header on Monday. I only said Tuesday because I bet ESPN would protest it.

We'd have a thread on it because 1. we really love our football and 2. there's a thread on everything.

The problem is that Kassandra didn't play football, so the most tragic figure has nothing to do with the game, and nobody's gonna feel bad for Belcher. They'll do what they usually do in situations like this. Moment of silence, number on the helmet, initials on the helmet, and off they go. This will affect the Chiefs for the rest of the season. I just don't think they wanna inconvenience themselves and the Panthers by delaying the game further in the year since they need to get every game in, a game they've already been preparing for.

"The show must go on" is very cliched, but there's a reason why so many entertainers actually take that phrase to heart.

I just hope they don't overdo it with the interviews before and after the game, Crennel better get his on

 

[Cynical Thoughts]

Guess all that sensitivity to players health (mentaly)and well being, goes out the window if they play.

Boy I hope the troubled mind of that player that killed himself, has to do with concussions.

Then what the NFL gonna say? It will look even worse if they play and someone else gets concussed, cause his mind was not "clearly" into the game.

Exactly

Crennel, Pioli and the rest of them who witnessed that is probably gonna be on some for a long time.

 

[obarth]

the chiefs said they want to play. so they are playing. what exactly is the issue here?

Once these dudes find something to be fake angry/indignant about, there's no stopping them. Petty things like facts/the opinions of those involved in the actual story merely get pushed to the side for dumb ass nikkas to express opinions that don't matter in the slightest fukking bit.

It's really annoying

I see idiots on here praying he had concussion issues
, trying to excuse him and redirect anger towards the league

Some true fukking morons on here.

 

[Nintendough]

People have to work under stress everyday B. Cats better stop being charmin soft and understand that people deal with tragedy and still have bills to pay.

 

[frush11]

Maybe if it would've happened earlier in the week, they would've postponed it, but you have to consider that at the point this happened too many things where already in motion for the game.

 

[Reggie]

It's messed up but hey what can u do about it. If the Chiefs boycott the game what will that really prove?

I know right lol. nikkas tryna come up with conspiracy theories and shyt on some Ol "well you know Rodger put that low key pressure on him to play" Like do you nikkas think Romeo cares about pressure from Goddell, his ass is getting fired in a month or so.

 

[Lakers Offseason]

A lot of regular folks are also dependent on that Sunday income. Fcuk that a$$hole who killed his mothers child.
