Like who shined and who stunk the joint up, did Dorsey practice, just a few minor details, instead of just knocking the high spots off.

I come her for Bob's takes. I read through most of the responses and feel a kinship to many of the regulars. Over the last year-plus I've developed a since of the readers that I feel have legitemite thoughts(strictly my own opinion), so I spend time reading what they have to say also. As for the one's I skip over, they may be good people but it's my time so I'll spend it as I see fit. aPauled and Steve,

Going with Donald Washington makes more sense to me as I watch more tape from last year, we really had an issue with 3rd recievers, and I dont put it on Leggett but we had some injuries, such a nice depth addition with a high ceiling. cant wait to see this defense, the big issues (pass rush) and (slot or speed recievers) (run D) have all been worked on, only pass rush needs some work, but the amount of potential break out sack guys makes it less daunting…

Something the Chiefs from the past few seasons have had very little in the way of examples, to see. Well, Tony G did alot of this on the other side of the ball, to be fair. The defense? They were figuring it out as they went.....right down the tubes. Vrabel and Zack Thomas will naturally lead by example.

While we are complaining about posts, why don't we add: "If you don't have anything to say, don't say it". Some people apparently like to see there name on every post, so they parrot the theme of BG's article. Why? I for one, either skip or quickly scan the Responses. There are only about a handful of people that actually have an original thought or additional information on the subject. Yet there are 20 responses, either attacking another poster, saying nothing or saying nothing inth the stupith wayth. No need to post these here guys and gals. :( Obligatory Response: “We are all very excited to have Mike here.”

He may only be a 60-70 tackle, 4-5 sack guy at this point in his career, but his insight and experience will be invaluable on this team. Plus, he might be able to teach Cottam a thing or two about catching TDs and blocking on the goal line. I maintain, a nice pickup by the Chiefs, but I still wish he'd come to a few non-mandatory things, but it's a moot point now.
