Tenebrae factae sunt
Real Chiefs Woes! From bad to worse. That's the Chiefs season so far, and, perhaps, for the foreseeable future. Grabbing at some fragile straws (mostly last week's triumph at Washington), I predicted them to beat San

Under Achieve - Over Achieve
No good news forthcoming. Contrasting fortunes for the England Cricket Team and the Kansas City Chiefs. One has, seemingly, been over-achieving whilst the other is moving, or possibly sinking, rapidly in the other

A Tough Start
NFL Opener Looking forward to Sunday evening. It's the start of the NFL season and all Chiefs fans are agreed that it can't be as bad as last season. Or could it? Away at the Baltimore Ravens is not really the

All Sorts of Noises
An enigma with little variation. From the Chiefs: lots of talk and not a lot of action. The real news has been the apparent change of emphasis, best illustrated by the treatment of Brian Waters, Larry Johnson and

Football Weather
Crazy Game!! They say the old ones are the best. In pointless truisms, it's hard to beat, “Everyone talks about the weather, but no-one ever does anything about it!” The reason is, of course, obvious. No-one really

It's the Draft, Stupid
Chiefs get it right - or else!! The Chiefs have drafted themselves into a corner. New GM Scott Pioli has such a reputation for finding gems in the annual auction that the height of the expectations is only dwarfed by

Clarkson Does Football
Jeremy Rocks! Jeremy Clarkson, when not acting as the peoples' choice for PM, writes for the Sunday Times. He's now on my team where football is concerned. He says: “Over the years I have argued that football

Sports Combine - February 2009
A round up of current issues. Kansas City Chiefs With a new coach and GM it's all down to the draft for the Chiefs this season. It is surprising how easy it is to go from 2-14 to 10-6. Hope springs eternal.

Great Scott
Chiefs appoint new GM! It's been anything but a quiet off-season for the 2-14 Chiefs. King Carl Petersen has gone into a well-deserved retirement – to be replaced by Scott Pioli, who comes from the Patriots organisation

Don't go down that road!
Please, please get sensible! Finally. A win, and even better, a win over the Raiders. Praise be the Lord! Already (and very unfortunately) the KC media have started overplaying their hand – like the poker player

Banged up and barely standing
Chiefs are hurting – big time. I got to watch most of last week's Chiefs game. This was surprising in itself as the season is going so poorly I was amazed they made it to the Sky coverage. It was the alternative

Let us cross the river and rest in the shades of the trees
Chiefs Stonewalled! And then there were three. Someone once said to lose one parent is careless to lose two is downright unlucky, or words to that effect. Clearly they were thinking of the Chiefs who have carelessly

Chiefs pound Broncos Avid readers waiting for me to comment on the “progress” of the K.C. Chiefs have been sorely disappointed so far this season. Not surprising really after starting the season with three embarrassing

OTT Sports Reporting Two days in a row this week the front page of the EDP has been taken up entirely with the saga that is the Norwich City football club. Never mind the stories themselves. What has me wondering
