Herm Speaks/Volume 6
Most of Herm Edwards weekly gathering with the media horde was a discussion on a guy who didn’t play last Sunday and probably won’t play this coming Sunday: Larry Johnson.
Always, the media wants to talk about those who contribute the least.
So here are some of the important passages of what Edwards had to say about his wayward running back and his current situation.
ON LARRY JOHNSON’S STATUS FOR THIS WEEK
“Right now, Larry will come to work tomorrow (Wednesday.) The decision on that will take place when it has to be made. I don’t have to make the decision on who’s starting and who’s not starting. So that’s kind of where that’s at. Whatever I do, I think hopefully you know me by now, people know me by now, I’m going to do the right thing for the football team, and that’s where it stands with me.”
Translation: I don’t want to put words in Edwards’ mouth, but what I hear him saying is enough. He’s had enough of L.J. and the way he approaches the game and his team. He’s taking a stand and if the NFL is going to be part of that stand, that’s OK with the head coach.
There’s more from Herm on that angle:
“I’m always disappointed when just players forget the obligation they have to play in the NFL. What the National Football League stands for, the integrity, the standards that you have to keep, whether you be a player, a coach, in management, or whatever we do is looked upon as trying to be the very best at what we do. There are certain sacrifices that you make when you’re involved in this league because you represent the league. I think you handle it a certain way … it’s no one’s right; it’s a privilege to be in this league. You can’t take advantage of it and you have to understand that. So I think sometimes when situations arrive like this, it’s a learning lesson for a lot of people.”
Comment: The above is one of the core values of Herm Edwards. That’s spoken from the heart. You may not like his decision making, you may not like the way he coaches, but his love of the game and his love of the NFL is unquestioned.
THE CHANCES OF JOHNSON OR ANY OTHER PLAYER CHANGING
“I think we all have the ability to change if we choose to. But that’s a choice. We all have to make choices in life. It’s your choice and that’s what’s so good about it, you have a choice. And when you’re willing to make a choice you can change, anyone can change. We all have to change some things we do as people sometimes, and I just think it’s your choice to do that, and we’ll see where that’s at.”
Translation: L.J. changes or he’s not going to be part of this picture, that’s what I hear Edwards saying. Johnson has a chance to come back and show something different. But, it’s his last chance.
WHY HE TOLD L.J. TO STAY OFF THE SIDELINES ON SUNDAY
“I was trying to protect the game, so we would all come here Sunday and worry about the football game, not worry about a player that wasn’t dressing that week. That’s kind of the most important thing … You don’t want to put people in situations where they might be embarrassed. That’s not good. I’m not into embarrassing people. I don’t believe you do that. I just think you look at things with a big objective in your mind and understand there are certain things you’ve got to do. The best thing for us to do last week was to try to concentrate at playing football. Not worry about if he was here if he’s not here and all that stuff. It becomes too much of a circus atmosphere and that’s not fair to anybody.”
Comment: The head coach had enough of the circus last week and did not want the clowns, elephants and the midget they fire out of the cannon on the field for a game against what might be the best team in the league. It was another step in re-focusing the vision to the players who did the right things, not the guy who is screwing up.
Listened to the Sermon. I do not like herm’s style of coaching but agree with what he said (as if he would care). Since he seems joined at the hip to clark maybe he should be the next GM. Also heard carl afterward he must be dieing with this mess.
Still have heartburn with annointing Brodie as not just a NFL QB but the QB of the future. Most fans were willing to see how he did when healthy, a few felt he had never been healthy enough to be a NFL QB, YET, no one in the chiefs could see anything but what a great QB he was. I know, get over it.
Gray is ok but would have been nicer to sign insted of Martin. Did anyone hear the chiefs are looking for a punter?? What is going on with that??
Every1 is pointing the problems at Herm…..but 2 be truthfull the problem is Gunther he hasn’t proven anything 2 our fans that he can devise a halfway decent game plan on sundays. Hey atleast we all know now that we need a “real” starting qb b/c Brodie is the “Mr. Glass” of the nfl, u just touch him and his staus for the next game is uncertain. So 2 be honest, I think Herm has done a heck of a job as far as putting together the talent. Now all he needs 2 do is put together a talented coaching staff and fire Gunther who has the mentality of Dick Vermiel…”If u guys score alot of points then my defense wouldnt look so bad…”
I thought this was an interesting piece from the sporting news about the Titans vs. Chiefs rebuild projects.
http://www.sportingnews.com/blog/real_scouts/entry/view/13781/titans,_chiefs_on_different_roads
Funny how the Broncos went from Super Bowl contenders to a team in dire need of help since we beat them. I think that the Quinn Gray signing will help us more then trying to bring in Culpepper with the play of this OL.
As to Larry Johnson, when he has a top OL to run behind he really does look good. With this OL in full rebuild mode he looks lost in space as to where to go, he looks to be rushing into the holes before they open. I would still rather have an all purpose back like Priest Holmes or Marcus Allen who can be in there for all the plays and keep the Defense honest no matter the score.
Also Dustin Colquitt hurt his non kicking leg in the Panthers game I do believe.
Thanks for pointing out that article. One thing is for sure: it’s hard to be competitive when you have the league’s worst run defense.
The article seems to point the finger squarely at the D-line for the Chiefs defensive woes. Maybe I put too much blame on the LB corps for the run defense; it’s hard for an average fan to get a good look at a lot of the plays on TV.
On that subject, it seems to me that the LB’s have little awareness of where the ballcarrier actually is on many running plays; they’ll immediately run to a spot at the snap of the ball and end up taking themselves out of the play. Is this a problem with scheme? As has been previously pointed out, they didn’t play like that against Denver.
Seems to me the Defensive backfield is hindered by the line not getting pressure. Along with the LB’s getting tied up by the offensive line players getting to them on run plays. I think we need to let the defensive players just play, like DJ did in the Denver game. It doesn’t seem like we are blitzing very much like Gun’s teams have in the past. Just seems the defensive is doing too much read and react to the offensive scheme. The scheme I have always liked is to bring the attack to the offense so they have to react accordingly.
I too agree with the way Herm is handling LJ right now.
This team is just bad everywhere. For the amount of talent on the defensive side of the ball, it can be safely said that they are underperforming. Gun has got to go.
put in the former 49ers head coach now.
I just found this on the Kansas City Star page about how we signed Quinn Gray:
http://www.kansascity.com/385/story/852573.html
I’d like to pump some rays of hope and sunshine into the LJ matter but I’m reminded of a personnel director who once told me the following in dealing with troublesome employees:
“People change…but rarely ever do.”
This all raises a real question for concern.
If the D-Line is Herm’s hand picked group and they are not living up to the job, Who’s to blame?
If our LB’s are under the direct tutelage of our DC Gunther with this to be an area of his expertise and after having them all being newly replaced this year beside DJ, Who’s to blame?
Is it the Coaches, the System or the Players?
If it’s the players then it’s the Coaches fault that picked them!
If it’s the System then it’s the Coaches fault that picked it!
If it’s the Coaches then it’s the COACHES fault for not being able to Coach the players, intall a system or pick good players and what do you do when it’s all 3? Fire them?
Any answers out there?
We have to give it time, one season is not going to answer all of our questions, but it gives us a good basis to build on.
I think Junior has to lay down an ultimatum, “This team better show some drastic improvement in these next 10 games OR ELSE I am going to CLEAN HOUSE!” NO MORE “TRIED HARD SPEACHES” or sorry ass excusses, Improve this team or no ones job is safe!
I totally agree with your last comment JohnNdallas. I hope Gray can come right in and start playing our offense is pretty simple its written on a Denny’s napkin.
From the article:
“I do know that Herman Edwards is the perfect man to lead a rebuilding or resurgence in Kansas City”
- agree wholeheartedly, and so I’ll highlight it by posting it. Refreshing to hear this sentiment from a ‘pro’, rather than the knee-jerk harangue diametric of the ‘down with Herm’ contingent who are – inexplicably, by their own inference – not NFL employed.
The Chiefs haven’t had a Head Coach since Stram was banished; all he did was ‘win’ for the most though he wasn’t universally loved in KC due to his ‘personality’ – gee Herm, where’ve we heard that before?
Specifics are always diverse one coaching example to the other but the record shows Edwards reached post season his first season with the club, Stram year three; Stram coached in a World Championship game his seventh season here, and finally won one in his 10th. Tit for tat then, Herm has four more years the one and seven more the other after this current season to match said. This would be using the same (il)logic some fans use to call for Herm Edwards ouster, the (in)famous ‘timeline’ measure.
They say the Chiefs got old under Stram, yet when fired Hank and the Chiefs had suffered their ONLY losing season in the previous 11- ‘winning’ games obviously wasn’t forgotten. Yet, not just one but two Superbowl appearances in the seasons previous 9 years was not enough, apparently. Nowadays, NO Superbowl appearances in nigh on 40 years is OK, appears (btw, HE’s only in his third season here.)
No, Stram’s exit was more so the result a drop in attendance and the grasping of ears Chiefs higher ups as in Steadman & Hunt via pleas of whining KC busine$$men. Upshoot? The record shows the Chiefs have to date NEVER recovered/have yet to replace Hank. The beancounters/busine$$men nee ‘fans’ got what they wanted back then; looking back on these past now approaching 40 years…are you happy?
A LACK of patience* led to Stram’s dismisal; odd, for had Hunt not been patient before Stram exited there would be no KC Chiefs today (’65-’66 rumors of the Chiefs moving to locales such as Atlanta, New Orleans and Los Angeles were ‘more’ than idle speculation.) Obviously, between first success KC in ’66 & ’74, Hunt’s definition changed, $omehow.
*(to make up for the impatience transgression all the ‘patience’ nee air in the room has since long ago been bequethed (contractually?) to President, CEO & GM Carl Peterson, who, KC area bu$ine$$men embrace…or did at one time anyway.)
So don’t blame Herman Edwards…he’s merely being one General MacArthur to Chiefs fans who imagine themselves in the Harry Truman role. As such Herm is the latest easy target that rode into town. He is trying replace the magic a Hank Stram wrought and brought here via taking a different tack, all in an attempt to break the(now) four decades long cycle of Chiefs lost wandering in the wilderness tack. The natives can’t handle it – the ‘truth’; truth is, nothing can or will ever change unless a change in ‘how’ things are done takes place.
The truth hurts…but embrace it anyway.
WOW!!
It’ll take me 2 days to research what that means, can you simplify that for us “Blue Collar Guys”?
Likely till the end of time immemorial would be insufficient, simply put…in your case.
JohnNdallas i read your comment on Yardbarker about Bowe’s Bunch and that Eagle fan trying to put trade thought in Bowe’s head come free agency time that definately is tampering haha.
Its good to know DBO is still down to earth and a good person usually players that are good and somewhat cocky (in a good way) arent like that. The show is definately going to become one of the NFL elites in the future.
Interesting perspective, Rin Tin Tin. Are you saying that the Chiefs have not had a head coach since Hank Stram? Does Marty not count?
Impressive vocabulary for an inbred German Shepard.
But meaningless.
It makes little sense to compare professional football from the 1960′s/early 1970′s and present day. That’s like comparing family roles from the 1950′s to those of today. Sure, children in 2008 still call their mother “mom” for the most part, but honestly, how many Donna Reed/June Cleaver-esque mothers are out there anymore? When Stram coached, football was a different game and he was crucial to its innovation and formation into the game we see each Sunday. However, at the time that Stram was coaching the NFL wasn’t the national passtime that it is today. The first love of most Americans was baseball and professional football was seen mostly as a way to fill the long winter months until spring rolled back around. People were more patient in waiting for a pro-football championship, mainly because it wasn’t the paramount “big deal” that it is today. Time could be spent developing systems and getting personnel in place. Coaches today do not have that luxury. Fans expect winners and they expect them NOW. It may be “wrong”, or even “silly”, but it is what it is.
Besides the differences in culture, it’s asinine to compare Edwards and Stram because one, as stated before, was an innovator, a man who saw outside of the box (or the stationary pocket) and the other is a man who can talk a good game and is trying desperately to recall from memory the keys to winning he learned from his good buddy Tony Dungy. Nothing special or ground-breaking there.
And finally, Rin Tin Tin, please don’t insult our intelligence by insinuating that Herm Edwards got this team into the playoffs on his own merit during his first year. Let’s be honest, the man was riding the coat-tails of Vermeil and Saunders’ baby. We saw a real Edwards coached team during that putrid excuse for a playoff game against Indianapolis where the offense couldn’t even pick up a first down until the third quarter.
Stop apologizing for the man. He does a good enough job of removing himself from the blame-equation on his own.
Interesting, Rin Tin Tin. So, the fact that the Jets were quite ecstatic to unload Herm Edwards fails to factor into his ineptitude. His approach in New York may have merited playoff appearances, but the only wins were against coaches who struggle in the playoffs (Schottenheimer and Marchibroda).
Herm fails to make the necessary adjustments during the games. Stubbornly sticks to running the football when facing 9 men in the box. He refuses to change his approach even when it is apparent it is failing. Running the ball is important, but the run game has to be effective and timely. In some games the pass will set-up the run rather than vice-versa.
How many players from opposing teams have stated they knew what the Chiefs were going to do on every play?
Beating one’s head against a brick wall accomplishes nothing but a concussion.
Herm may be a good person, and appears to be a good scout of talen (I still believe Dorsey will be good along with Hali, Flowers and Carr); however, he is a lousy headcoach. I agree with the youth movement, but some key veterans to mentor the young players is necessary. McIntosh, Adrian Jones, DeMorrio Williams and other castoffs are not key veterans, they are players who were never good enough to start on other teams (especially Adrian Jones who came from the Jets).
“Interesting perspective, Rin Tin Tin.”
- yes…and succinct.
“re you saying that the Chiefs have not had a head coach since Hank Stram? Does Marty not count?”
- Marty counts just the same as the rest, i.e., he never delivered the ‘prize’…only Stram has. For all his ‘success’, does Dan Marino merit the same reverence as Bart Starr? A Montana? Others? No, outside subjective bias. The Championship(s)addendum speaks volumes.
As such, Schottenheimer stands astern Stram, not beside/next to him…just the facts.
Well guys, I’m never glad to hear of a players career ending but (the Chiefs have put Huard on the injured reserve list) imo that is a good thing for this team and probably the end of his career.
Sorry, but if you’re going to pretend that any head coach who never won a Super Bowl never existed, then you’re throwing some pretty good guys on the scrap heap.
In the same vein, let’s look at some of the giants who have “The Championship addendum”: Barry Switzer? Tom Flores? George Siefert? Brian Billick?
I’m not saying that Stram wasn’t one of the great coaches, but organizations win Super Bowls, not coaches. That’s true today more than ever.
I’m sure that it will come out that Huard has quite afew injuries. He just didn’t look right all year. I say good luck to him. If I were the Chiefs, I’d sign another QB and carry four.
“Interesting, Rin Tin Tin.”
- another ‘interesting’ sentiment expressed (you mustn’t be from that cognitively challenged part of the contiguous 48, i.e., Dallas).
“So, the fact that the Jets were quite ecstatic to unload Herm Edwards fails to factor into his ineptitude.”
- they were? Who is ‘they? Fans? Some, probably. Jets management? They were so ‘ecstatic’ they wouldn’t fire/release him, instead requiring (& receiving) a #4 draft choice from the team that wanted him…the Chiefs; the Jets got it.
“His approach in New York may have merited playoff appearances, but the only wins were against coaches who struggle in the playoffs (Schottenheimer and Marchibroda).”
- like the bloop single in the box score, a W is a W is a W. Mr. Peabody discerns you’re really reaching Sherman.
“Herm fails to make the necessary adjustments during the games. Stubbornly sticks to running the football when facing 9 men in the box. He refuses to change his approach even when it is apparent it is failing. Running the ball is important, but the run game has to be effective and timely. In some games the pass will set-up the run rather than vice-versa.”
- hmm, compelling…except, have you seen what happens when the Chiefs ‘try’ and pass? Two QBs now on IR for the rest of the season…capiche?
“How many players from opposing teams have stated they knew what the Chiefs were going to do on every play?”
- how many? Tell us. The opposition of the 60′s Green Bay Packers – still the greatest team in history – also knew what was coming most every time…five Championships in seven years & six appearances in eight suggests talent generally trumps scheme. Try again Sherm.
“Beating one’s head against a brick wall accomplishes nothing but a concussion.”
- sounds like those ‘players’ you give credence to who ‘bang’ theirs every Sunday…gotcha.
“Herm may be a good person, and appears to be a good scout of talen (I still believe Dorsey will be good along with Hali, Flowers and Carr); however, he is a lousy headcoach. I agree with the youth movement, but some key veterans to mentor the young players is necessary. McIntosh, Adrian Jones, DeMorrio Williams and other castoffs are not key veterans, they are players who were never good enough to start on other teams (especially Adrian Jones who came from the Jets).”
- you’re welcome to your opinion…and mine.
Thanks for inquiring…
IlChiefsFan…very good point. I would definitely put Schottenheimer above Switzer in terms of “greatest coaches of all time”.
Some guys *cough*Rin Tin Tin*cough* just want to come up with arguements for the sake of arguing and don’t really have any basis for their goofy opinions…that and they’re secretly on King Carl’s payroll and have been assigned to infiltrate Bob’s site and put his spin on everything. (I’m kidding.)
“It makes little sense to compare professional football from the…yadda yadda yadda…”
- pro football eclipsed baseball in 1964 by most investigatory measure- almost 45 years ago; they didn’t and don’t refer to it as “the Golden Age” of Pro Football for just no reason. Try again.
“Besides the differences in…yadda, yadda, yadda”
- you’re welcome to your opinion, and mine; thank you for inquiring.
“And finally, Rin Tin Tin, please don’t insult our intelligence”
- I don’t think that’s possible (to insult those you refer to.)
“Stop apologizing for the man.”
- having a bad LAST 40 YEARS, are you?
“Comment: The head coach had enough of the circus last week and did not want the clowns, elephants and the midget they fire out of the cannon on the field for a game against what might be the best team in the league.”
If we didn’t have clowns, who would take the field?
Well, time to go grab a sandwich so the ‘whine’ from the Edwards bashers can at least be suffered on a full stomach. Be back in awhile…
; )
B in SC
Rimshot!
Careful, don’t choke on your alpo!
Haha…wow. Someone thinks very highly of himself and his (limited) intelligence.
I’m interested to hear your source for the “1964″ date. I won’t argue that professional football began to increase in popularity over the 1960′s because that is evident, however, if you look at ticket sales in addition to television shares and ratings, the NFL didn’t really surpass MLB until the mid-1970′s.
Finally, you might want to keep a dictionary handy when you decide to use “big boy” words. Your use of “inquiring” has been inappropriate in each of your responses since your initial comment.
Not sure that I would classify myself as an Edwards “basher”, but I did think it was a bad hire at the beginning. Unfortunately, there has been nothing to change my perception. Great guy, excellent role model, poor leader. Nothing on his resume has ever suggested he could build a team. I think be a DB coach is the pinnacle of his ability. Can you say you have seen any improvement in this team? I look hard for hope, but I see them regressing.
The most rushing yards given up at home by ANY team in the NFL in the last 20 years is, you guessed it, 335 by the Chiefs. #5 on that list is also this year’s Chiefs with 300 yards allowed against Oakland.
How about an Edwards “realist”. Wherever he coaches, QB’s get hurt, offenses collapse, and sadly he’s added a new twist here, defenses regress and become all time bad against the run. He needs to go at the end of the season along with Carl. Hopefully Clark has had numerous conversations with Scott Pioli already, and Scott’s looking for a place to live in KC starting in January, to run this franchise and every aspect of the Football operation.
There’s that strong nee rank ‘wind’ blowing in again from the Lone Star State…
“stands astern……investigatory measure…” No wonder he left to go eat a sandwich, he got to defecate some more BS…..it is getting deep fellas…… Very fun though!!! Go Chiefs!!!
“Someone thinks very highly of himself and his (limited) intelligence.”
- yes, but don’t be too hard on him – everything is bigger in Texas…even the stupor
“I’m interested to hear your source for the “1964″³ date.”
- there are several sources; in fact it had been buregeoning since the ’58 NFL Title Game wherein the Colts defeated the NY Giants. To the extent it is most relevant- and you may care since you are ‘inquiring’…
Reknowned late author David Halberstam who wrote the baseball book ‘October 1964′ affirms said.
“Finally”
- what’s this…your exhalation nee exclamation point nee residue your principled heights, ‘Pete’?
“you might want to keep a dictionary handy when you decide to use “big boy” words. Your use of “inquiring” has been inappropriate in each of your responses since your initial comment.”
- poetic license be mine, writer’s preogative too…green-eyed adulation yours, evidently.
For, to wit, Rin Tin Tin did not reference his literary style…verily, didst you and others. Keep those posts, tithes and love offerings comin’ fellas…
; )
See, two typos or more thrown out to you by me just as a life preserver of sorts lest you drown on my grandeur…there, that about what you wanted?
You’re welcome…
: )
Haha. Rin, you are TOO MUCH, my friend. Too much.
Keep it up Rin Tin Tin, some of these guys will resort to name calling. What else are they to do? They don’t understand a single thing that you are saying!
I also enjoy it when Herm toys with the reporters during his press conferences.
OK, now that we’ve got all the slapstick humor out of the way (hopefully, but don’t test me)…
Don’t have the exact Halberstam verbiage handy, but here’s a couple others that ofeer insight:
- according to a Harris survey in October 1965, sports fans chose professional football (41 percent) as their favorite sport, overtaking baseball (38 percent) for the first time.
- In Gallup’s polling, baseball ranked as America’s favorite sport from 1937 to 1960. Football overtook baseball in 1972 and never looked back.
So, whether we want to belive this guy or that, this year or that year as to precise date, it is clear that by the 1960′s football had at minimum equalled and then exclipsed baseball.
Back to point, the truth is ‘rebuilding’ hurts – embrace it lest the Chiefs NEVER again return to days of yore/glory. Doing it the ‘other’ way has resulted in these past 40 years…
Yes, Herm making almost a daily fool of himself in front of the media during his press conferences is entertaining. It’s about all we have left.
I understand perfectly what the man is saying and I do believe that insulting someone’s intelligence is on the same level as name calling, which, by the way, Rin Tin Tin does in most all of his posts.
In this day of free agency and big money contracts to players and even bigger money contracts in merchandisingand advertising, you can’t let a coach sit on the job for seven years and wait for him to build s Super Bowl team. If he’s making the playoffs nearly every year like Marty did then maybe he earns that right. All Herm has done is win nine games with Dick Vermeil’s team and creep into the playoffs. Remember that 2006 playoff scenario? Four or five other teams had to lose that final week in order for us to get into the playoffs in the first place.
A few of you, as well as myself, have argued the point with Rin that you can’t compare the game today with the game of 45 years ago. Things change. Stram was certainly a great coach, but Marty is a better coach than some of the others who have won a Super Bowl i.e. Switzzer, Seifert, Billick. Also, Rin would dismiss Marino for never having won the big game. While the case could be made for Montana and Starr, does he really believe Dilfer, Brad Johnson, and Doug Williams were better than Dan? Would he say that Big Ben and Eli are automatically better because they have won one already? I’d say Rin must think this way or he is contradicting himself. No shock there as fellas who tend to argue for argument’s sake usually do. Especially the ones who think they’re the smartest dogs in the room!
Findthedr has the stats on Herm. How many more franchise records (like most rushing yards allowed, worst defeats etc) does Herm have to break here for you to be convinced he isn’t the man for the job Rin?
ILChiefsFan:
“In the same vein, let’s look at some of the giants who have “The Championship addendum”: Barry Switzer? Tom Flores? George Siefert? Brian Billick?”
- it’s your ‘vein’, so I’ll let you ‘hype’ it to the generalization’s extent you made.
What about Dick Vermeil? Won elsewhere & got two other teams to the Superbowl; while he was in KC? Zippity doo-dah. Yet, everyone wrings their hands & gnashes their teeth about “oh woe is me/we…we have Herm ‘stead of Vermeil/his MEDIOCRE result – in half a decade nee five/5 years.
Great taste that was Vermeil offense…bitter the taste that defenseless half the other. Maybe for some it did feel better losing 45-42, instead of 34-10…it was losing nontheless. Big losses only happened to Herm?
Vermeil Chiefs were beaten 24-0…by Oakland! How about 27-7 by the HERM EDWARDS COACHED – NYJets! Also blowout losses to DEN & MIN – in Vermeil’s THIRD SEASON of 2003!
All in all, just like every other Coach since Hank Stram. A KC winner the ‘prize’…NOT.
It’s called rebuilding; think of it as your first taste of spinach, or liver, or- insert your least favorite palate treat…embrace this rebuilding.
Couldn’t resist, here’s one more in response to your proffer of:
“organizations win Super Bowls, not coaches. That’s true today more than ever.”
- guns don’t kill people, bullets do…
: )
Ruff Ruff Dawes LMAO, it’s you! He He He
Colby
I’d answer your plea in greater detail but don’t want you (and a few others) to feel left out nee unable to comprehend/follow along (maybe if Rin typed S L O W E R or those few certain readers – and we know who they are – didn’t spend so much time admiring the pretty pictures Rin draws via his narrative instead of grasping the clear fact-filled nuance of each & every post, Rin’s). See there, now you have me referencing myself in the third person – cut…it…out…you enabler.
So, let me me answer your final query:
“How many more franchise records (like most rushing yards allowed, worst defeats etc) does Herm have to break here for you to be convinced he isn’t the man for the job Rin?”
- as many as it takes while he (or whomever) is the Head Coach during this rebuilding process…
: )
Rin
Big words, little substance. Losing is losing, on that simple statement you are correct, but I’d rather lose 45-42 than 34-0. There’s a difference between being competitive and being embarassed. If we were 1-5 and playing half way respectable football then I don’t think there would be an outcry for Herm’s head like there is now. We were all prepared to suffer more losses than wins this season. We weren’t expecting disaster. Call it a rebuild all you like, right along with Herm, but this isn’t that. It’s a mess. As far as I, and many other fans who post here are concerned, Herm has 10 games left to turn this thing around. He doesn’t have to win 8 or 9 of them, he just has to prove that this team is improving. So far, these young players have regressed. Put makeup and a dress on a dog all day long if you want, it’s still a dog at the end of the day.
Even Carl said yesterday:
“We expected there to be some bumps in the road. We didn’t expect so many potholes.”
Not even the King is satisfied so why are you?

Colby, I’d respond to your argument, but you have proven me wrong on multiple fronts, so I’ll just string together some prose modeled after a 1960s Thor comic book and hope no one calls me out on it.
Two posts in a row for me…Rin Tin Tin? Oh, the humanity…sacre bleu!
Labeled as I am by you as possesser such little substance, truly I feel blessed to recieve your generous rebuke & instruct more so from an e’en more faithful canine than I – a veritable Rover to mine Pavlov. So then, let me jerk that chain your lack of cognitive fund a little more.
“We were all prepared to suffer more losses than wins this season.”
- wishes do come true huh, alas, this groupthink mindset you’ve got going is non sequitur…think for yourself man. This isn’t a venue wherein mob mentality rules/gets you what you want. You will sit down and let Chiefs management do their jobs(tranlsation: eat your spinach & liver and learn to accept things you have no control over. Keep reading, watching, paying & angsting…the line forms to the right but it will move no faster no matter how many times you throw yourself on the blog roon floor crying and embarrass yourself.)
“As far as I, and many other fans who post here are concerned, Herm has 10 games left to turn this thing around.”
- why not send your sentiments to Clark and then, get back to everyone here on the blog, i.e., let us know how much it swayed him…we’ll leave the lights on for you. Oh by the way how’s the “we is gonna hold our breath till Carl’s fired!” threat working out for you/like fans? (give it time it’s only been 20 years.)
“He doesn’t have to win 8 or 9 of them, he just has to prove that this team is improving. So far, these young players have regressed.”
- so far…the only cogent words you’ve uttered to date in this blog – tho you say one thing & infer another. Shall we call the football game fini in the 2nd quarter? How about at halftime? End the third quarter? Practice what you preach -it’s called patience nee a 16 game NFL schedule – watch that knee…jerk.
“Even Carl said yesterday”
- now you embrace Carl when he serves your whim? Oh behave!
I’m feeling really fatigued seeing as Colby has been taxing my one hand – the one that I’ve had pressed against his forehead while he swings blindly & wildly – whilst the other hand mine is grasping a cool sasperilla. Somebody wake me up when he finally expires via his own device…
heh heh heh
Hey tuff guy was “cogent” used in the communications sense or was it used in the partners sense?
I doubt you know the difference.
There’s that smell again…winds fom the south
Another thing Professor Dawes, the correct spelling is NEE, and “sacre bleu!” as you spell it is actualy Sacreblue.
*Sacrebleu
yeah that happens when you stand down wind and shovel Sh!%
Stinky
No stinky, it is ‘sacrebleu’ just as Rin Rin Tin spelled it (a typo separated it into two words.)
Not bad for a substance lacking dog though, huh.
The rest
You see folks, this is what happens when you post your thots on Herm Edwards. And when you agree he is the right man for the job . . . well then, all that’s left is the verbal jabs.
Note: Rin Tin Tin didn’t start said but he sho’ nuff knows how to deflect the blows and bloody the attackers noses nee fight back, huh.
They don’t like it too much when a poster isn’t a punching bag- when someone hits back they get all upset.
Get used to it.
heh heh heh
; )
How is me asking you to simplify your comment any sort of verbal attack?
Of course that is if you don’t have a serious case of ah, short person syndrome, if that’s the case I truly apologize for asking you.
See how easy ’tis to deflect criticism from Herm? Rin Tin Tin becomes the issue…I glady accept as pulling the wings off internet bullies be reward enough for the trouble.
Anyone who cares can go back through this blog to read my intial comments, and those that were then addressed to me for all the ‘why’s n’ where fors’ in question.
Rin didn’t start the personal stuff, but again, he sho’ nuff didn’t remain a stationary target.
Anyone else? Football or narrative joust, your choice. Thing is, Rin never even said he thought Edwards was the greatest coach or anything of the like, merely that Herm was in fact the right man for the rebuild job- just as the writer of article I first referenced did.
heh heh heh
: )
Rin Tin Tin you refute nothing I said…..yet again. What a joke your posts are becoming. You pick and choose your fights instead of going after statements and opinions as a whole. Keep thinking you’ve gotten the best of myself and the others who disagree with you. You obviously don’t live in the same world as the rest of us.
This 1-5 disaster of a team is absolutely good enough for you. For myself, I won’t be satisfied until the team is at least competitive. I’ll of course root hard for them no matter what, but apparently I have higher standards than you do.
You see John (can I call you John? Why of course I can), appears that a difference of opinion nee perception exists…or just maybe matter ‘choice’.
I made my initial post and you responded. As such John, the inference I got from your post was that you felt I was somehow perhaps speaking over your head, due to either my own satisfaction by way of my own narrative scribe – OR/AND OR – because you were incapable of understanding Rin’s proffer (if I was cruel could/would have in plain, simple and blunt retort stated “er yew stewpid er whut?” But I did not, instead (sans nasty words that yet got a certain suspicion mine across), replied to your playful quip with my own rapier same.
I thought my sentiment was clear…the fact that, out of a habit – mine – I write/talk in a certain fashion is merely a reflection of my unique style and background. Blogs & the like sometimes do not lend themselves well to interpretation intent- on the other, sometimes they serve the purpose quite well. Don’t you agree?
I was not ‘certain’ regards your intent until I read more of your posted ‘offerings’ (& to wit, friend of mine who reads this blog and was also today reading along told me his impression of you is, based on previous posts, ‘not’ shall we say, positive. Regardless, for future reference I can & will talk Chiefs football with anyone – I will rank my knowledge of Chiefs football on par with anyone either outside or inside KCs organization. That’s not bluster, rather tis confidence buoyed by having been a fan since 1963. For what said is worth, I’ve on more than one occassion going back two+ decades informed the Chiefs PR department of errors they had in their ‘Official’ Media Guide.
(funniest/saddest depending on take being calling Len Dawson the ‘sole’ of the Chiefs football team during his career – as in ‘heart & sole’ instead of ‘heart & ‘SOUL’)
I did/can do this because I’m learned & fanatic about the Chiefs & pro football/have been since 1956. To close for now, I’m not Rufus Dawes and have no idea who is- nor do I care. And frankly, he/she has nuttin’ on me.
Peace.
: o
: )
; )
Oh Colby, I’m embraced by shame…not really
“What a joke your posts are becoming.”
- want me to make you roll over this time Rover? If you are so convinced they are, ‘ignore’ them – move along. You may not know this but… whether you approve of or ever again read my posts – any, is immaterial to me…really. This will become obvious after this my final reply to you- make a note of it.
“You pick and choose your fights instead of going after statements and opinions as a whole.”
- you maybe want I should blindfold myself, tie both arms & my vocabulary behind my back? Then I’d look just as foolish as your posts – think I’ll pass.
“Keep thinking you’ve gotten the best of myself and the others who disagree with you. You obviously don’t live in the same world as the rest of us.”
- on the contrary, appears ‘you’ feel I’ve gotten the better of you what with all this protestaion yours. Solution? Don’t go away mad- just go away. If you keep posting to me whilst you tell me how much you don’t like said/me, you become prone to delivering double messages. Cut, it, out.
“This 1-5 disaster of a team is absolutely good enough for you. For myself, I won’t be satisfied until the team is at least competitive. I’ll of course root hard for them no matter what, but apparently I have higher standards than you do.”
- don’t know whether to offer you a kleenex or a Loving Cup…lemme get back to you, only…don’t wait up for me.
heh heh heh
: )
Well maybe you should have read for your self some of my previous post, (in fact I have in the past singled one of your post out, in agreement with said post)
I have read your stuff before and I can only recall one other time when you said so little with so many words.
Yes I can be negative when my thoughts lead me that way or I can also be very positive in my comments.
I have no one left here on this earth I feel I need to take a back seat to.
Time is limited my friend and I would very much like to see the Chiefs at the very least competitive, so I will continue to cast praise or criticism where I see fit.
Right on JohnNdallas.
“Well maybe you should have read for your self some of my previous post”
- now you want to be my Manager…first program their thoughts, then the body will follow. Nope.
“in fact I have in the past singled one of your post out, in agreement with said post”
- a blow to the head (yours) being perhaps the impetus? Bet that smarts- er no, bad choice of wording – ‘hurts’, huh?
(Yes, now I’m just being downright cruel.)
“I have read your stuff before and I can only recall one other time when you said so little with so many words.”
- and for how long now has your amnesia been bothering you? Oh – never mind! you wouldn’t remember anyway, huh…
“Yes I can be negative when my thoughts lead me that way or I can also be very positive in my comments.”
- for how long now have you hated your father nee let your thoughts lead you this way & that?
“I have no one left here on this earth I feel I need to take a back seat to.”
- so then, you prefer serving rather than being served as it were? Understandable, in that said hurts less…or so I’ve been told.
“Time is limited my friend”
- going somewhere?
“and”
- yes?
“I would very much like to see the Chiefs at the very least competitive, so I will continue to cast praise or criticism where I see fit.”
- as will I…without tha invitation, approval and/or irregardless the reaction others.
To borrow from ‘See No Evil, Hear No Evil, See No Evil” – “there…is everybody OK now? Are we all friends again?”
: )
I wouldn’t piss down your throat if your guts were on fire! Does that answer your question?
You would like to think that your diatribe is cruel but it’s nothing more than psycho babble.
Grim realization, your part; watch the backswing that half door.
(Two, three, four) “Boom, boom boom boom boom, and another one bites the dust”…heh heh heh
: )
Rin Tin Tin says
You may not know this but… whether you approve of or ever again read my posts – any, is immaterial to me…really. This will become obvious after this my final reply to you- make a note of it.
Thanks for giving up on your pointless thoughts on football and conceding to me. It’s better anyway, you are outmatched and your vocabulary isn’t nearly as impressive as you think it is. Glad I won’t hear from you again.
All
‘ “He’s” got me, under his skin ‘…heh heh heh
: o
: )
; )
haha…what a loser.
Winner by TKO in round 3, JohnNDallas by referee stoppage. Referee steps in to end a non competetive contest.
ALL
Three blind mice, three blind mice, see how they run, see how they run…heh heh heh
: )
Nope, that didn’t help your side at all…and more importantly, it didn’t help Herm. He still sucks, and just shows how goofy his supporters are.
And when you have them, you know you ‘really’ have them…heh heh heh
: )
Referee orders the beaten canine combatant to be taken to the hospital on a stretcher, as he doesn’t seem lucid enough to leave the ring on his feet.
Like the Swallows Capistrano, return they ever & again…to their Master
heh heh heh
: )
No, we just return to see if you’re going to keep posting drivel, falling further and further off-topic into your own mediocrity.
“heh heh heh”
OK folks, this time I’ll make him roll over and mess himself…AGAIN
heh heh heh
: )
You go ahead & bat him around awhile Anonymous – he’s starting to leak oil and I think soon he’s gonna start crying – he may be Tony Gonzalez in disguise?
He affirms the old adage that ‘a fool tries to drag you down to his level- and then beats you with experience.’
heh heh heh
Hey, Rin.
HERM SUCKS! No false eloquence or lack of serious vocabulary skill can hide that fact.
heh heh heh.
Rover forgot to bring my slippers…this time
heh heh heh
Haha. You are a sad, sad man.
heh heh heh
As such and via your own pronouncement then, appears you embrace sorrow.
Pavlov thanks you for your continued rapt as well rapped attention via this Pavlov’s velvet gloved iron fist…
heh heh heh
Haha. You are the poster child for illiteracy. You have no idea what you are acutally saying, do you? You have limited intelligence and probably don’t have cable, meaning that you spend your time watching PBS…which gives you access to “big words” and concepts that you just don’t understand. “A mind is a terrible thing to waste”, my friend. There are a lot of GED programs, maybe you should enroll in one.
“A mind is a terrible thing to waste, my friend.”
- we leave you to your area of…’expertise’
heh heh heh
Five, four, three, two, one…here ‘he’ comes
heh heh heh
Wow. You’re so desperate for attention, you even reply to your own posts. Sad.
CONTACT! The eagle has landed!
heh heh heh
Yep, sad, sad man.
OK, now roll over, now mess yourself again…GOOD BOY!
Heh heh heh, good one Anonymous…everybody (dog)pile on J the clown.
Uh…you DO realize that you’re the one they’re refering to, right? I mean, I’m not the one sharing my name with a stupid Lassie-rip-off television show from the 1950′s.
Hate to break it to you J, but Rin Tin Tin and Anonymous are – ME – one & the same.
Yup.
This happens when you (inadvertently my case) end up clearing out your computer cookies and posting without first seeing that your name & email boxes are filled in.
Oh, the humanity…thanks for providing even more laughs.
heh heh heh
(PS) My advise, just walk away let it go…though you’re too st***d to stop I’m too stubborn and am having too much fun.
Your choice…
Advice or advise? Once again, if you are going to resort to denouncing the intelligence of others, it might be a good idea to buy that grammar dictionary.
You can be “stubborn” all you want. I happen to enjoy keeping you occupied here and limiting your time and resources to reply with nonsense in the rest of Bob’s articles.
Are you ever going to attempt to refute the fact that Herman Edwards is a horrible head coach or are you going to continue making irrelevant personal attacks?
I understand that when one cannot differentiate between someone disagreeing with a baseless arguement and a personal attack, that they go on the defensive and in turn make their own personal attacks (and use “heh heh heh” gratutiously), but seriously, back up Herm. If you are SO sure that he’s the “right man for the job”, then please, make me “see the light”.
Advise is what I meant & advise is what I typed – not advice. Words can be used as either verb or noun – as well, the Old English style (which is where this originated in the context my post) & the use of said be one of Rin Tin Tin’s most oft used effects this scribes reperotoire (I’ve been using it this post you’re now reading as well – not that you would know, obviously…that you were and remain unawares of such a style says much about you, much more than about me.
Rin’s not saying you’re a dim bulb per se, but only because you would misconstrue that…too.
Your green eyes cast my way grow lovelier by the blog
And yet again you duck and dodge the issue at hand. Herm Edwards, Head Coach of the Kansas City Chiefs is a horrible coach and NOT the man to lead this team out of the mediocrity he has thrust them into. Can you not refute that? I guess not, since you’ve had about a week to do so and instead speak in the “King’s English”. This isn’t the Renaissance Festival, but a football blog. Go drink your mead with the rest of the losers who frequent Sandstone every October if you can’t stay on topic. “Methinks it lovely for ye to show ye have but one brain cell lest ye continue to be pegged for the jester that ye are.”
“Herm Edwards, Head Coach of the Kansas City Chiefs is a horrible coach and NOT the man to lead this team out of the mediocrity he has thrust them into. Can you not refute that?”
- is this what you actually…believe? Statement yours which be a very assinine impacted thought? Swear to it in the name of me Lord!
“I guess not”
- see there, you have not e’en the conviction your own whim. No, knee jerk yours has not & shant going forward help you either…perhaps copious coffee enema wouldst. Couldst you try? Shouldst! Tis more a matter unresolved issues childhood yours with authority figures several, primarily your father, correct?
“with the rest of the losers”
- the other members your family also disregarded your need for affection, ahh…twas obvious, but I needed to hear you say it. There now don’t you feel better knave- Dave, er…what was your name again?
“This isn’t the Renaissance Festival”
- no, rather tis the place you come to do your penance – genuflecting at knee Rin’s – without fail…like a clock that’s correct twice a day, you are e’er faithful, if a bit ‘slow’ to come round. As such canst e’er we counteth on return yours ‘gain as afore? Verily, willst ye!
Still no refute? Perhaps you have no legs upon which to stand but the silly talk.
Good try, but I see right through you.
Please continue to post your lame, inept comments. You’re actually boosting my ego.
“Still no refute?”
- still no evidence provided? Whence you do – if you dare – Rin will be here to but(t) spank your (il)logic some more…
“Perhaps you have no legs upon which to stand”
- no need, use your neck & throat as a footstool mine for side-splitting avarice…
“but the silly talk.”
- 2, 3, 4…hey c’mon J, follow me I’m the Pied Piper trust in me – I’m the Pied Piper and I’ll show you where it’s at!
“I see right through you.”
- try not standing so close…if Rin should make a sharp turn or sudden stop, verily you’ll break your neck…
“Please”
- Rin loves it when you beg Fido
“You’re actually boosting my ego.”
- non sequitur…you have not ego, rather face full o’ eggo, but- why wouldst I want to steal said aft I had just finished facilitating said? No, Rin’s not done bludgeoning you yet…ya’ll come back now, hear?
heh heh heh
Just stopping by for my daily affirmation. Keep that love coming, Rin!
Like clockwork…Masochistian Candidate
Better than “Manchurian Candidate”. Speaking of which, did King Carl lock you in a room and brainwash you into believing that (like smoking yak dung cigarettes) Herm was the man for the job? haha. Happy Halloween by the way.
“did King Carl”
- usually he’s the one driving…you must have out-negotiated him
“Happy Halloween by the way.”
- enjoy November 9th, ‘Soup’: Gedenktag für die Gefallenen der Bewegung
Out-negotiating King Carl would be quite the feat…I must have presented a damn good deal.
No; rather, you were the only bidder to offer and as it was near closing time – he playing the part the chooser of candidates for a ball game and you being the only kid left, bat in hand…
So, did you get everything you deserved last nite?
What’s that? Halloween? Oh, sorry; outside having to sleep on the couch aft then – did you get that other bag yours safely home?
Your favorite must be the jawbreaker – tantamount to Rin Tin Tin narrative delivered to the tune of devastating measure via a series o crisply placed rapier right jabs- ‘nother crushing defeat yours, at either.
Nope, actually I just went out and had a couple of beers. How about you? Did you and the guys from the glee club get together and sing a rousing rendition of “It’s Friday Night, and Yet Again We Are Without Women”?
Then again, it was Halloween…so I imagine you probably dressed up…Did you go with “Creepy Pedophile Stalker” or your usual favorite “Nerd with No Clue”?
Keep pitching them down the middle…you’re starting to look like the Rays.
Here’s to hoping the boys actually win tomorrow.
“I just went out and had a couple of beers.”
- easier to get their tops off & you don’t have to buy ‘em dinner, huh…
“How about you?”
- thanks, I’m flattered but not interested; try mastering those suds cans ‘before’ setting your sights on Rin…
“Did you”
- yes, I just brushed you off…get over it
“and”
- yes?
“the guys from the glee club get together and sing a rousing rendition of “It’s Friday Night, and Yet Again We Are Without Women”?”
- what you and your ‘Buddies’ from Main Street or dudes from ‘Sidekicks Saloon’ choose for pursuits to fill those bosom challenged late week hours is of no interest to Rin, though I’m sure you sing a lovely tenor (how you reach those high notes will remain your secret, please.)
“Then again, it was Halloween”
- lemme guess: you dressed up as ‘Butch’ Patrick (Eddie Munster from ‘The Munsters’?) Or Lilly?
“so I imagine you probably dressed up”
- I did…Rin dressed up as the gun store dealer in ‘Falling Down’ and proceeded to beat up twinks and steal their candy.
“Did you”
- yup, I really did…
“go with”
- no, and you can’t go next year either – I’ve no doubt you’d dress up like some ‘freak’ if you did go…
“Creepy Pedophile Stalker”
- bad enough, but even worse you’d probably start singing…
“or”
- don’t tell me, I really don’t want to know…
“your usual favorite “Nerd with No Clue”?”
- don’t push your luck…you know I only talk to you here online because it amuses me to do so…
“Keep pitching them down the middle”
- psst, I’m over here! By the way Mr. Wonder, how is that Rubik’s Cube you’ve been working on these last – oh, couple decades coming along? (“Is this it? Is this it? Is this it?”)
“…you’re starting to look like”
- what difference does it make Stevie, really?
“the Rays.”
- J, you wanna impress Rin? Tell me just how many people on the blog are reading and watching right now, laughing as Rin uses you as a deck swabbie?
“Here’s to hoping the boys actually win tomorrow.”
- Rin is a Chiefs fan, I’ve no interest in those gay Caballeros from Dallas…you go for ‘it’.
Oh man. I love it when I get your goat! Seriously, you are too, too easy to upset. No, I know…”I’m not upset, but just verbally jousting with you”…Mmmhmmm, and I didn’t see your mother down on Troost last nite.
Speaking of her, I rolled down my window at the intersection of 51st and Troost and asked her how the night was going. She said, “Well, I’ve made three-hundred dollars and ten cents.” I asked her who gave her the dime and she said “They all did.” Silly hooker…
See you at the game today? I doubt it. You probably spent all your money collecting Star Wars figurines…
“Oh man.”
- exactly so, and you there at the foot mine the Master…again
“I love it”
- yes, they’re Floersheim’s…
“when I get your goat!”
- leave the poor animal be, he wasn’t built for such a small short pleasure as you…
“Seriously”
- without question…
“you”
- don’t hate Rin because he’s beautiful, & don’t go away mad…just go away
“are too”
- as you wish, punish yourself a bit more then… alas, Rin grows bored holding His hand up against your llarge forehead whilst you flail away wildly swinging at but hitting nothing but your own hot air…
“too easy to upset. No, I know”
- that’s it, self-talk; work it out, keep looking for your inner child…
“I’m not upset, but just verbally jousting with you”
- oh get up off your knee, places people please!the adulation line mine forms to the right…
“Mmmhmmm”
- and stop mumbling, first come first ‘served’…
“and”
- yes?
“I didn’t see your mother down on Troost last nite.”
- not surprising Stevie…you also haven’t noticed you need to prune those dreadlocks
“Speaking of her I rolled down my window at the intersection of 51st and Troost and asked her how the night was going. She said”
- nothing, as she wasn’t there nor (again) were you, having (again) mistaken the inside of your eyelids for a window to the world; had she seen you howe’er, would likely have said: you’re as black as the night & blind as a bat…
“Well, I’ve made three-hundred dollars and ten cents.”
- that’s too bad, but your heydey was a very long time ago – probably time to start pitching oldies cds or maybe selling those ‘Lark’ ambulatory aids on TV…
“I asked her”
- no, Lark isn’t a girl although a girl used to hawk that brand of cigarettes for the advertising campaign; probably what you meant…huh
“who gave her the dime”
- the ad agency that hired her you snapperhead
“and she said “They all did.”
- no, again – twas actually just one person in finance who cut her a check…pay attention
“Silly hooker”
- no, she was an amateur, not a pro at taking it in the shorts, like you on this blog
“See you at the game today? I doubt it.”
- now you’re grasping the concept 20/1500! No more ‘blind corners’ to go ’round for you…huh
“You probably spent all your money collecting Star Wars figurines”
- no, don’t be disappointed – I won’t be giving you anything for xmas…except more perspective, as I’ve done to date this blog…
heh heh heh
Excellent job of taking yet another post and completely pulling it out of context and twisting it to fit the parameters of your sad, sad little world. haha. You can’t even come up with any sort of comeback. I win again. Good try, though.
So, speaking of football, since this is what Bob’s site is supposed to be about…what did you think of the horrendous play-calling in the second half? Herm sure knows how to blow an 18 point lead, huh? Definitely the man for the job? I’m interested to see how you twist that around to fit into the faery realm that is your head.
“Excellent job”
- you’re so cute when you grovel…now then, get out of my spotlight, release mine ankle and quit tuggin on my (ahh)…Majesty
“yet another post and completely pulling it”
- you do like to abuse yourself when Rin Tin Tin isn’t around to do so for you…yes, flagellation becomes you
“out of context and twisting it”
- those are called pants, not a context…and as to the other, stop twisting it!
“to fit the parameters”
- a yoctometer, yours…fits you like that one trillionth of a trillionth of a meter your fund
“haha”
- tee hee
“I’m interested to see”
- too late Stevie, for as you affirm there are none so blind as those who’ve shame…
Previous post by Rin = yet another win for Josh.
Keep those sad, unintelligable posts coming!
Josh says . . . nothing, again . . . running out of e’en the hot air his, all what he ‘ad
More errant J: it’s ‘intelligible’, three o’ the letter “i”, ‘old the “a” yours, tis none
heh heh heh, tee hee
I’m sorry, are you, the king of grammatical and spelling fauxpaux correcting my FIRST SPELLING ERROR? Let the pot call not the kettle black, my friend.
You’re starting to lose my interest. I haven’t heard anything quasi-knowledgable from your keyboard in over a week. Do you want to talk football or are you content butchering the “King’s English” and sliding in and out of delusions of grandeur?
“I’m sorry”
- agreed…
“are you, the king”
- that’s King with a capital K…and yes, Rin does a great Elvis…
“of”
- his early years act, nee younger days…
“my FIRST SPELLING ERROR?”
- but NOT YOUR LAST me thinks – the day is young and this was but your second post today, herein…
“grammatical and spelling fauxpaux correcting”
- that should read “faux pas”, not fauxpaux- you see, Rin told you that earlier flub would not be your last, even today); as well should not there be a space ‘tween the two – ‘stead o’ presenting it as one long boooo boooo yours? Yes, shouldst.
Well here, make it easier on yourself…imagine the gaps ‘tween your teeth – all three…teeth.
“Let the pot call not the kettle black”
- with but three teeth that be a mean feat, no doubt…believe it, and shall you succeed
“my friend”
- Rin is not your friend…He works alone and sans a net (howe’er, in a fashion those white-jacketed fellas are e’en now keeping an eye on you – and they don’t answer to the name Marty Robbins and a white sport coat- only to STAT!)
“You’re starting to lose my interest.”
- promises, promises…
“I haven’t heard anything quasi-knowledgable from your keyboard in over a week.”
- so now your hearing is on the fritz…too
“Do you want to talk football or are you content butchering the “King’s English” and sliding in and out of delusions of grandeur?”
- Rin has been telling you, you just haven’t been listening or reading or – grim realization yours, have not been able to ‘get it’ as it were; ‘when’ or more so ‘if’ e’er shouldst you comprehend (try reading ‘tween the lines), get back to me…babe
heh heh heh
I COULD pull “a Rin” and tell you that my spelling of faux pas is some obscure way of doing so that is no longer in use, but I won’t because I’m not stupid, and pulling “a Rin” is the pinnacle of stupidity.
I see that again, you duck and dodge the issue, that being Herm Edwards and his ineptitude at not just finishing a game, but winning. One win in the past year? This is your savior?
Finally, I’m not your mother, so don’t call me “babe”.
You lose…again.
“I COULD pull a”
- no; give junior a rest and stop pullin on that magnifyin glass defyin tweezer challenged member nee appendage yours will… well, but extinguish your only true friend, appears (your pursuit nee lust aft Rin the indicator…)
“Rin”
- yes, what is it now?
“I’m not stupid”
- of course you’re not, only…how would you know?
“and”
- yes, what is it you want from me now?
“pulling “a Rin”
- you pull your own, Rin will handle the heavy lifting His…
“I see”
- no Stevie, unlike when you ‘pull’ on your wee member when you aggressively rub your orbs what you mistake for vision is actually temporary, a dramatic increase in pressure inside your eyes, PHYSICAL stimulation the photoreceptors retina – immaterial whether light or pressure stimulates the photoreceptors, the only way the brain can interpret information from said is via (here’s the key) a ‘PERCEPTION’ of light.
So you see Stevie – bad choice of words – upshoot be the ‘sense’ of seeing any colors you interpret as sight is called “pressure phosphenes”. This is normal. . . even though you be ab(normal).
“that again”
- you’re blind, we’ve covered it already…& you will ne’er see the light
“you duck”
- you prostrate horizon…
“and dodge”
- great car, I own one – a ’70 Challenger RT 426 Hemi…and no, you shant ride in it
“Finally”
- ‘nother promise ignored, yours…back again
“I’m not your mother”
- that would explain your not being present nor invited to family get togethers…
“so don’t call me”
- count on it…now stop stalking me – babe
“babe”
- also answer ye to pest, idjit, addlepate and borborygmusist…the list be endless!
heh heh heh
Herm stinks, you suck. You lose!
Yet another ‘faux pas’ yours…should read: “Herm thinks you stink you f***” – heh heh heh
Boogie On Reggae Woman…
Yay! More drivel! You lose!
“Yay!”
- yipee!
“More drivel!”
- your birthright!
“You lose!”
- going somewhere?
heh heh heh
I love the way you take sentences and then break them down out of context. You didn’t go to a theological seminary at some point in your life and vote Republican in this last election, did you?
I have you so bewildered, you can’t even form a coherent post anymore.
In the words of Iron Maiden, “Run to the hills, run for your life.”
You lose…again. You’re getting good at that.
“I love the way you take sentences and then break them down”
- yes…child’s play don’t ‘you’ know
“out of context.”
- and totally non sequitur yes; now, about your other cognitive problem… those the many which which have left you nolo contendre at my feet…
“You didn’t go to a theological seminary at some point in your life and vote Republican in this last election, did you?”
- why no, rather on this darkest of black days in American history, the smart choice every shouldst be to verily be ashamed to be an American, any… and if a not so errant missle shouldst find mark nigh on, who would any of us be but standing – in line, lockstep – to but shake the hand Savior.
“I have you so bewildered”
- yes, both my sides doth ache so…
“you can’t even form a coherent post anymore.”
- ok, now roll over – now mess yourself again – GOOD J!
“In the words of Iron Maiden, “Run to the hills, run for your life.”
- in the words of Rin Tin Tin, don’t tarry and don’t delay!
“You lose…again.”
- again? ‘Nother promise broken yours…for, like a bad fungus keep returning you for ‘nother daily as you affirmed ‘cleansing’ nee affirmation) – by the way, do watch the ankle mine won’t you shoe shine boy, and that trail yours saliva…& tears.
heh heh heh
Worthless. You lose.
1, 2 – Hey come on, babe
Follow me
I’m the Pied Piper
Follow me
I’m the Pied Piper
And I’ll show you where it’s at
Come on, babe
Can’t you see
I’m the Pied Piper
Trust in me
I’m the Pied Piper
And I’ll show you where it’s at…
heh heh heh
That’s it? Wow. Yep, you’ve finally lost it…in a way beyond just this simple arguement.
I can’t wait for you to respond. It seems you can’t help but give me the attention I so deserve. Yes, I’ll allow you to continue to pretend that you’re the one in control here…I don’t want you jumping off the Liberty Memorial (where your kind hang out after dark) as reality comes crashing down on your sad, sad, little, insignificant world…
“That’s it?”
- not quite…don’t let the door hit you in your intellect on the way out
“I can’t wait for you to respond.”
- unquestionably…
DISS(ED)MISSED!
Thank you. Keep on coming back. I OWN you. Hehe…you just can’t get enough abuse.
“Thank you”
- come back soon…Rin knows you will!
heh heh heh
Again, proving my point. See you in a few for your Josh fix…just don’t expect me to meet you up at the Liberty Memorial tonite. What a sad man!
“my point”
- there ’tis, atop your pate!
heh heh heh
“Survey says: XXX…AWW! And it looks like Rin, you lose again.”
Help you out of that thought constricting jacket yours Mr. Strait?
heh heh heh
Yep, put a fork in him folks, Rin’s done.
“Yep”
- and now an assist too with your slippers – as same the jackted strait the ‘kicker’ yours with which Rin ‘smokes’ you each & e’ery post…
heh heh heh
You lose.
Hey, it’s old idle…again; if you wonder why he was late today, don’t…’tis elementary – he had trouble getting his head unstuck, nee out of his underwear…
heh heh heh
’twasn’t MY underwear, nee, ’twas the pantaloons of your dirty, skank mother.
“’twasn’t MY underwear”
- even worse, now he places his head the rectum another…
heh heh heh
Hey, I can’t beat the prices that cheap tramp offers.
“Josh says”
- nothing, per the usual…though his lips move & his keyboard chatters… he is again e’er left to his own device, his only: self-flagelattion
heh heh heh
With one less “l” – ‘what the hell’ says he, and two “t’s” one extra so that he can better tickle his own fancy…no one else will
heh heh heh
Ooh! I’m worth two consecutive posts? You really know how to make a guy feel special! (You must get that from your mom!)
It was two for one day…half(wit) yours off pricing
heh heh heh
Wow. Got me there. Out of gas, huh?
Could have knocked you o’er with a feather…did
heh heh heh
Nothing better than that?
Speak up…my foot appears to be constricting your hot air nee windpipe…
heh heh heh
Dull. Boring. Seriously, Rin. I expect better.
Just another typical day the life of ‘home alone with nothin’ to do & no date too’, J’s…
heh heh heh
Mmmmm…Nope. Wrong again. Looking into the pool too intently there, Narcissus?
“Mmmmm”
- hello, KCFX? This is J …I want to report your radio station’s audio is ‘still’ sounding awfully muffled. What’s that? You say I sound muffled to? I can’t ‘see’ why – it’s nice and quiet (and dark in ‘here’.)
Oh, before I forget, why is the Chiefs game not on today, huh?
Hello? Hello? Can anybody hear me?
Nope…
heh heh heh
…and Rin drifts further and further into the quagmire of his own mediocrity…
J (inaudible, ad nauseam)
heh heh heh
Quite the tangent this time, huh? Clever, clever man, you.
J (inaudible, ad nauseam…ad infinitum)
heh heh heh
Blah. Blah. Blah. Nothing new?
“Blah. Blah. Blah”
- J addressing himself afore mirror his, daily – nee even minute to minute, catastrophe ongoing…
heh heh heh
Rin, your assignment for this eve: Define the word “CONTEXT” and then apply it to one of your asinine retorts.
“Rin”
- yes, what is it now knave?
“your assignment for this eve”
- is as always, my choice to accept or refuse – and should I or any member of the I.M. Force be caught or killed the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions…but I/we won’t.
“Define the word “CONTEXT” and then apply it to one of your asinine retorts.”
- excellent choice too misterectum – can you expel nee hum a few bars to give the audience benefit your aspertise?
heh heh heh
So basically, you’re admitting you don’t know the word or it’s meaning. Way to affirm what everyone on this site already knows…you, Rin, are a dumbass.
“So”
- what…
heh heh heh
At least you can admit it, I suppose. They say that admitting a problem is the first step to recovering from it. Good luck with that.
“At least you can admit it, I suppose”
- well, if you’re not certain…
“They say that admitting a problem is the first step to recovering from it.”
- how many voices do you hear?
“Good luck with that.”
- it will take more than luck…meds, therapy, committment yours (to the Menninger Clinic)
heh heh heh
Wow. It’s worse than I thought. You’re so confused, you’re projecting your own problems onto me. Shall I call Charter for you?
“Wow”
- Shazam!
“It’s worse than I thought.”
- it must be; thoughts? Now you’re delusional…
heh heh heh
Man, still having trouble finding your “A-Game”, Rin?
Rather, find you daily underfoot mine…
heh heh heh
If that’s your A-Game, you are in a sad state of affairs, Rin.
“a sad state of affairs”
- in ‘A Town without Pity’, Sheriff Rin hath none for you…keep shovelin’ boy!
heh heh heh
If you’re refering to the horse sh-t you keep spewing, it’ll take a while.
“horse sh-t”
- breakfast of J(ampions)!
heh heh heh
That’s the best you’ve got? Rin, you really are pathetic.
J’s got me under his skin, J’s got me ‘deep’ in a ‘part’ of him…
heh heh heh
Seriously. Talking with you, Rin, is like trying to carry on a conversation with someone who has Down Syndrome…only that’s insulting those people…you’re far worse.
“Seriously”
- injured in one car accident on I-70 Sunday was a Missouri man. According to trainers on site, a full time circus clown and part-time monkey cage cleaner identified as J was found lying upon his face prostrate next to his prostate (unconscious and as such in stable condition.) Apparently the clown fell asleep at the wheel his unicycle.
After being airlifted back onto his feet it was determined he had sustained only a minor injury – his smile was askew, but his pride was found to be unfounded, and as such unwounded i.e. intact. No internal injuries were noted, as nothing was found either left of center chest, the cerebral quadrant, etc.
The injured motorist was treated at the scene and released, complaining only of side aches – both -’seriously.’
heh heh heh
Hmm…Not sure who this “J” character is. If you’re referring to me, the name is “Josh”. If you WERE referring to me, I’m going to ask that you re-write your little press-release there with the correct information, or I’ll have to turn you in for libel.
Come on, Rin. This is sad! I’ve been destroying you now for weeks. Aren’t you even going to put up a fight?
“press-release”
- what J does when he’s finished communing at the altar his – oft several times each & every daily -the Gerber Ultra Flush 21-312
heh heh heh
It’s official, I am Rin’s new Step-daddy.
“It’s official, I am
- (says I- er J), ‘oaf’icially Al Bundy”
heh heh heh
Your mom is Peg Bundy?
Go fetch me my Gin and Tonic, boy and be snappy lest I have to beat you with the buckle end of the belt again!
“mom”
- no, Rin…I just shaved, more aerodynamic etc. etc. (hands razor to J): “Here, your turn…for your back.”
“Peg Bundy?”
- no J, your mom’s grows out her areola – keeps you from nursing (as often as you’d like…)
heh heh heh
Boy, don’t you back-talk me. Go empty the trash and when you’re done with that, go pre-treat the brown stains in your mother’s unmentionables. (Smacks you on the back of the head) I said move it, boy!
“Boy, don’t you back-talk me. Go empty the trash and when you’re done with that, go pre-treat the brown stains in your mother’s unmentionables. (Smacks you on the back of the head) I said move it, boy!”
- J the IDJIOT does more self-motivation pep talks to himself via his mirror…
heh heh heh
Go out to that tree and pick a switch, boy. Don’t get the dead ones this time. Pick one of the good ones with life in it. I’m going to beat the sass out of you and when I’m done, you can wash and detail my car.
Second verse, IDJIOT as the first…i.e., more of the same, nee IDJIOT J giving self-motivation pep talks to himself via his mirror…
heh heh heh
Still waiting on that gin and tonic, boy. Don’t make me beat your mom to get you to start working.
“gin and tonic”
- the bottle won’t help you lush…grin & bear it
heh heh heh
“LIVE, FROM THE BASEMENT OF HIS MOTHER’S HOUSE, IT’S THE DELUSIONAL RIN SHOW!” (crowd cheers)
“Thanks, everyone for tuning in. I’m your host, Rin. You know, some people might ask why I have my mother’s soiled underwear on my head. I would have to tell you, ‘don’t ask, you don’t want to know!’” (crowd laughs)
“Now, we have some incredible guests on the show tonite. First off, we have my cardboard cut out of the Sith Lord, Darth Vader.” (crowd applauds)
“We’ll also have our usual visit from my mom, as she comes down to put laundry in the washer. Make sure you don’t point out her black eye!!” (crowd laughs)
“And finally, we’ll be enjoying the musical stylings of one of my favorite musicians, Tony Bennett!” (crowd applauds)
“Yes, that’s right. I love the man, he’s just about as big of a joke as I am. I mean, he’s living on Sinatra and Martin’s hits, and I live on the coattails of Josh. We’re kind of one in the same don’t you think?” (crowd yells out agreement)
“Okay, stick around folks. We have to go to a commercial break, but when we come back, I’ll show you how to shove seven pairs of my mother’s xxl thong panties in my mouth!” (crowd applauds, fade to black)
“LIVE, FROM THE BASEMENT OF HIS MOTHER’S HOUSE”
- it’s Norman ‘J’ Bates – PSYCHO!
“IT’S THE DELUSIONAL”
- J, son of a Motel 6 ma (not to be confused with cousin Jason his Friday the 13th Camp Cyrstal lore.
“RIN”
- yes, what is it now IDJIOT?
“Thanks, everyone for tuning in.”
- Rin’s the only one here to hear you scream Norman J (and if it weren’t for the fact you refuse to release my ankle I wouldn’t be here.)
“I’m your host, Rin.”
- no, you’re a figment of your own imagination and want me to ‘J’oin you there, ‘there’ having been described in the DSM-IV-R Manual 297.30 as chronic “Induced Psychotic Disoder”
“You know”
- yes, and I’m the worse for it…you too
“some people might ask why I have my mother’s soiled underwear on my head.”
- whatever hides the forceps marks left upon your pate from childhood…but most the audience would be more curious as to why your ma’s still in ‘em.
“I would have to tell you, “˜don’t ask, you don’t want to know!’” (crowd laughs)”
- I trust you will not then…
“Now, we have some incredible guests on the show tonite.”
- are they too all decorated same with your ma’s balbriggans atop?
“First off, we have my cardboard cut out of the Sith Lord, Darth Vader.” (crowd applauds)
“We’ll also have our usual visit from my mom, as she comes down to put laundry in the washer. Make sure you don’t point out her black eye!!” (crowd laughs) “And finally, we’ll be enjoying the musical stylings of one of my favorite musicians, Tony Bennett!” (crowd applauds) “Yes, that’s right.

We have to go to a commercial break, but when we come back, I’ll show you how to shove seven pairs of my mother’s xxl thong panties in my mouth!” (crowd applauds, fade to black)”
- ok Norman J, now try it here outside the closet and from out under your blankey…
heh heh heh
If you understood context, you would have grasped the concept that YOU, my pathetic friend, were the one referenced in my above post. Let me guess, you must be a product of the KCMO Public Schools! That explains your lack of comprehension and overall communication skill.Too bad. I was hoping we could get back to the sort of conversations we were having originally, but alas, it seems you’ve either exhausted all the good material in the “How to Talk Like a Douchebag” book or your ghost writer is on strike.
If you understood context, you would have grasped the concept that YOU, my pathetic friend, were the one referenced in my above post.”
- guess you’ll have to try again, huh…
“Let me guess”
- by all means, don’t set a new(er) precedent now
“you must be”
- correct – an American original – there is but one Rin Tin Tin…accept no imitations
“a”
- men!
“product of the KCMO Public Schools!”
- no, that where you ‘matriculated’ when not at home ‘neath the sheets? No, no need to ‘show me’, show me state.
Tell me, what was the topic today when you sat down with your mirror for another pep talk?
Can you share a bit with the audience? Good, go ahead and repeat your self-mantra from afore:
“That explains your lack of comprehension and overall communication skill.Too bad. I was hoping we could get back to the sort of conversations we were having originally, but alas, it seems you’ve either exhausted all the good material in the “How to Talk Like a Douchebag” book or your ghost writer is on strike.”
- very convoluted…to borrow from ‘Eye of the Beholder’ by way comparison previous attempts yours to date – “no change, no change at all!”
Have you considered removing the bandages from your head & face – & maybe turning on the light?
heh heh heh
So which is it; ghost writer on strike or exhausting your lone resource?
It was wrong for me to assume you were a product of the KCMO Public Schools; you’ve just proven (once again) that you are far too stupid to have actually made it in a school setting. I guess mommy probably home-schooled you from her basic knowledge of the three ‘r’s (similar to the education she gave you in later years on more carnal endevors; the likes of which I am sure you are equally poor).
“Josh says”
- much about nothing, again…’ado’…more so deux as in doo doo, ad nauseam, ad infinitum
heh heh heh
At least you don’t deny the fact that you have an illicit relationship with your mother.
heh heh heh
“At least you don’t deny the fact that you have an illicit relationship with your mother.”
- as Norman ‘J’ Bates comes to terms with malady his malaise, he disappears into the vast comfort and reflective substrate stares blankly back him -the playground the mind, his…wan emptiness
heh heh heh
Still not denying it? That’s sick, Rin. I can’t believe you’d stick “it” in the same spot where half of Wyandotte County has been.
“Still”
- patience…soon enough whilst you realize that as you look into the void, the void whilst start looking back at you…don’t deny it.
Now you say it: ‘not denying it.’
“not denying it?”
- actually it wasn’t a question but as you are an IDJIOT, close enough…
“That’s sick, Rin.”
- been lofting nee ‘wafting’ more o your bombs into the stagnant night air? The things J does to ‘butt’ entertain himself…
“I can’t believe you’d”
- never…I’ve been saving mine for years, for you. Now that you’re here: ‘release the hounds!’
“stick “it” in the same spot where half of Wyandotte County has been.”
- what is it you have against Wynandotte County? Lemme gues…they don’t ‘butt’ like your sense of humor…and lack of couth, yes? That’s it…
heh heh heh
Still not denying it. Hey, if that’s the only “action” you can get, I’m not going to condemn you. God knows it’s healthier than you spending all your time up at the Liberty Memorial each nite as you have in years passed.
“Hey’
- yes, IDJIOT?
“if that’s the only “action” you can get, I’m not going to condemn you. God knows it’s healthier than you spending all your time up at the Liberty Memorial each nite as you have in years passed.”
- ‘passed’? Au contraire mon fraire, nee tweedle dee by way tweedle dum(b) – ’tis “past” – though actually wasn’t, case mine (syntax & grammar too being unbeknownest to you, evidently.)
heh heh heh
IDJIOT
Rin Rin…Tin Tin…Rin Rin…Tin Tin…
No, actually, it IS ‘passed’ in the context of which it was written. You’re so dumb to “context”, it’s painful. Remember the post in which you pretended I did myself in? Perhaps Narcissus should look back in the mirror and perform said maneuver upon himself…your stupidity makes my head hurt.
“No, actually, it IS “˜passed’”
- NO, tisn’t…consult “The Elements of Style” by William Strunk, Jr. – have an adult explain it to you (ID)J(IOT)
heh heh heh
Hey. Guess what? I won!
