Go, Chieves

They have a halftime lead, 20-7. During the second half, they could still get handed their stindeens in a paper sack, but for now, I’m a happy boy.

Football Sunday Afternoon

With the NASCAR event out of the way for this week, I’m rejoicing in the fact that the early game of the CBS NFL doubleheader in our region features the Kansas City Chieves.1
We don’t see many AFC West games in these parts; even rarer is an appearance by the Chieves. They’re playing Cincinnati, a [...]

A Fitting Tribute

Chief Zee, the Washington Redskins’ mascot for the last 29 years, was absent from last Sunday’s FedEx Field season opener. He was in Dallas, at Texas Stadium, home of the arch rival Dallas Cowboys. It was for a good and noble cause, though:
Turns out he was in enemy territory — Texas Stadium — to [...]

Two Famous Lines for the Chieves

“You must stop the run.” Yes, this applies to Tiki Barber, too. 220 yards? Sheesh!
I suppose there’s some difficult-to-parse scenario under which KC could still make the playoffs, which translates to something involving their winning the balance of their games, San Diego and Pittsburgh losing, the swallows returning to Capistrano, and a favorable alignment [...]

All Hail the Mighty Chieves!

Final from Arrowhead Stadium, from where I witnessed one of Willie Nelson’s Picnics, but I digress:
Kansas City 31, Denver 27.
The real hat tip goes to Channel 9 in DC, for finally realizing the fact that the earth doesn’t drop off sharply 100 miles west of here.

And I’m gridiron bound

With NASCAR being done for the year, and NCAA hoops not rolling steadily yet, all I got is the NFL. First, hats off to the Kansas City Chieves1, on their win today vs New England. Usually out of the picture by Halloween, the Chieves are giving us AFC West fans some good moments.
And, [...]

Fum-BLE!

When I made last night’s post about Keith Jackson, I thought he had retired from broadcasting. In fact, I was pretty sure that I had heard his farewell broadcast, and I had. According to this, Keith came out of retirement to do a more limited schedule of games which generally involve teams from [...]

Whoooah, Nellie!

Isn’t it great to see and hear Keith Jackson back in ABC’s College Football broadcast booth? I think it is.
