    Default I think we all saw this coming, didn't we?

    Chiefs Designate Tamba Hali as Franchise Player


    Not sure how I feel about this. I just hope a deal gets worked out, and like... YESTERDAY!

    Chiefs had no choice. Now they need to get a long term deal in place so that I don't have another orphan jersey.

    I think itll be fine, Tamba cant be mad that hes guarenteed a top contract in the league at his position this year, this buys time for both sides to get a deal put together.

Both sides want Hali to remain a Chief for awhile as well as myself.



    Injury Prone??? are you kidding me?? He played through 3 injuries a majority of the season. I don't consider that injury prone. Now if he had all of those injuries and missed a boat load of playing time then you worry... Mathew Stafford, Brodie Croyel, and Bob Sanders are Injury prone. Hali is just down right Tough!
    Just because you dont miss a game doesn't mean you are not injury prone, the man had three different injuries all in the same season and from what I have heard his shoulder injury is pretty bad. Not once did I say he was injury prone but if I was running the Chiefs and I had to choose to franchise tag Hali or give him a huge contract I would rather franchise him just to make sure his injuries this year dont affect his play next year.


    Also from what I have heard Tamba Hali wants Demarcus Ware money and IMO I just dont think he should get that kind of money he hasnt prooved enough to me to get that kind of money.

    I was always curious if he was really the way he is, or if it was mostly an act. He has to be smart to run his business affairs, but to hear him talk?


    Are you man enough? Eric Berry? Apparently Not!

    I'm not going to speculate whether they'll 'get r done' or not, haha. This much I not only speculate but believe strongly; for the Chiefs, or any team, to have winning seasons consecutively, their team needs to remain intact related to key players. Musical player teams may have a winning season here & there, but those teams who keep a team together as much as possible considering Free Agency...appear more consistent with consecutive winning seasons.

    ~ random thought ~

    I understand why Free Agency came to be, but I'm old enough to remember when many players spent most of their careers with the same team. I miss those days when a new season began I knew who would be playing for who. I don't follow all the off season trades much, & with each season beginning I'm confused as to who is playing for who, more often than not.
