Will you partake in the National Media coverage before the Super Bowl?
 

Poll

It's a no from me. I'll listen to 810 during the morning, and catch some Petro in the afternoon
But that's it.

Yes, but I won’t be a whiny bitch about it like 493rd.

LMAO

Good

I won't seek it out but I'll read some of what gets posted on here and FB.

Well, sure. IT'S FINALLY ABOUT US.

Huh? Of course. Thats part of the allure of making the Super Bowl. Why would you take that away from yourself? Enjoy it.

cant stand that crap

I'll watch clips on youtube. Same as always. They're idiots mostly, but that's half the fun. I used to get a real kick out of Prisco's Chiefs hate, but the destiny is so strong, even Prisco believes now.

I'll be listening to Ben maller as usual.

Why do former players turn into clowns after they retire?? Inside the NFL is unwatchable...

I honestly don't understand how people could answer 'no.'

Part of the enjoyment of reaching the SB is the 2-week slobberfest about the teams. The 30% of Americans who now have no idea who Patrick Mahomes is will all know he's the greatest athlete on the planet by February 2nd. That'll be fun to watch and it'll put KC on the map.

Well, media day with Frank Clark should be interesting.....

Probably not tbh, I might catch a clip of some of it here and there but that will be about it.

Of course I will. I’m going to enjoy this to the fullest.

One thing I won’t do is get all butthurt when someone gives a take that I disagree with and post a thread crying about it on CP

Oh come now.

bitching is half the fun.

:)

I'm going to watch as much as I can till my eyes bleed...

Never do anymore, makes the game more pure.

Only what people post on here most likely.

I will partake in everything about the Chiefs for the next two weeks.

Lol you guys are full of so much shit

Thanks Rabbi, I’m popular! I know I whine, but I love the ****ing Chiefs and always will. Today was a special day.

Exactly. And I won’t even care all that much as to what they actually say about us. Just knowing that they HAVE to talk about us because WE ARE IN THE SUPER BOWL, BITCHES!!!!! will be quite satisfying.

I can't. I cannot do it.

I'll listen to Russillo and Bill Simmons and probably scroll through the Athletic. SVP has a podcast now. I'll check it out probably. But I can't do the HOT TAKE hogshit, or the joke "analysis". It's awful.

Yeah definitely. As an aside, great post in Pats board today.

"All I know is that if KC wins the ball of wax the government will have to shut down chiefs planet."

YES! ARE YOU KIDDING?

Finally we are in the SB and it will be all (or at least 50%) about us.

Though, I'm able to filter out all the SF hype the media will be employing to make the narrative about an equal matchup that could go either way (The way they slobbered on Henry's knob all week)

Though, I do think the best two teams in the league are playing the SB for the first time in a while.

I enjoy Shannon giving it to Skeee-up.

I HOPE ALL THEM DUMB****S PICK AGAINST US!!!!!

I hate the media, a bunch of damned reeruns.

Typical of Massachusetts Socialists...……..always wanting the Government to do what they can't do themselves.

I've waited 50 years for the next two weeks to be about our team,I'm taking in as much of it as I possibly can!

I mean, OF COURSE. The national media forgets about KC the moment they can. We have two ****ing weeks of limelight. Soak it up.

It won't be 50%, it will be more 70-30 and most of the Chiefs talk will be negative.

The media are Big City, progressive, elitists and SF is the home of the Brave New World's Technocracy. Of course they will favor the SF team.

KC is flyover country, gun owners, uneducated hog farmers, SUV and Camaro driving people who vote for people like Trump. In short; Rednecks and Hicks. They will not give favorable coverage even if they like Mahomes...……..they hate you and your little Midwest city. Actually, they really hate that KC has Mahomes and that he isn't playing for SF, LA or NY.

I don't know what media you've been watching, but right now the media is all about Patrick Mahomes and the #1 storyline is that EVERYONE wants Andy Reid to win one. The 49ers are a good football team but there is no star power. There is no backstory. They're about as boring a football team as you could get going into the Super Bowl.

Who do you think the media is talking about today? Mahomes, or Jimmy Garrapolo or Bosa?

WTF? A 2 week lovefest for our team and fans are going to avoid it?

I can assure you that everyone I know, most of them not Chiefs fans, are all talking about Mahomes. The media is calling them the Golden State Warriors because of how excitingly fast they can put up points and yards. Fans this season have been bitching over and over about how Collinsworth and Romo won't stop talking about Mahomes.

The Chiefs have star power
They have excitement
They have back stories and sob stories

The 49ers have none of that. Most casual fans probably can't even name a single player on that team. We're going to dominate the media for the next few weeks. Raheem Mostert had an elite game yesterday and yet the media is locked on Mahomes. We are must see TV. Enjoy it, folks.

You're on drugs. I'm a big city, progressive, coastal, liberal elitist who has no connection to Kansas City aside from the Chiefs, so I don't view this with the chip on the shoulder that you do.

The national media loves Patrick Mahomes. They love the Andy Reid storyline. They love the Kansas City Chiefs storyline. What negative coverage is there going to be? Give me some evidence of this.

(And just now in the background on my computer, some national pundit is calling Mahomes an "alien" who is going to the best QB in history and is the best athlete in any sport right now.)

I made a poor headline choice, but I was also kinda hoping people would use this thread:
https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=328356
to post good Chiefs news stories people found interesting. So we can find great videos & articles without having to listen to Skip or Stephen A Smith or other types of media nonsense.

Great take reerunedSeniorChief.

Keep your DC crap in here.

You're goddamn right i will. It's two straight weeks of non stop Chiefs knob-slobbin'.

I've been dreaming about this since i was a kid man. You can beat your ass i will be ingesting ALL of it.

The world is not as binary as you think. Other than a few commenters looking for unique hot takes the Mahomes and Reid love is much greater than anyone in SF is getting. NFL is popular in part because it's a useful distraction from boring or depressing "real world" topics like politics.

I've been watching it all day and lots of love for Mahomes and Andy

I don't know what rock you crawled out from under but Mahomes is the best thing to happen to the NFL since the forward pass. And the national media knows it and gushes over him and the Chiefs every day.

I’ve listened to a lot of sports radio today, and we’ve gotten far more coverage so far. I‘m guessing he’s just one of those DC regulars that always try to turn everything into some kind of political discussion.

Anything by Sims is great.
Dan orlovsky is alright, as well as some others.

Skip Bayless, dieon Sanders, and mangini can all eat dicks.

How bad does Kevin keitzman feel? Lol
Dude destroyed himself during the best year as a chiefs fan.

I get my Rocky on listening to these fools, of course I will. Get up and drop 4 raw eggs in a glass and drink while shadow boxing. Cuz Chiefs!

I don't watch much TV and ESPN is normally garbage.. but I'll turn it on for background noise.

Hell yes I will. Already hearing the narrative today that Mahomes is only as good as he is because of his weapons. I guess other franchise QB's all played with scrubs.

Been waiting to partake in it since 1981

Already doing it.

Kansas City is a lot less like that than you think but I know what youbare trying to say. Luckily I haven't noticed even the media rip on sports teams because possible more than 50% of their fanbase are Rs.

:rolleyes:

Shut up.

Mahomes = Ratings.

Mainly that's just Skip and lil' Stevie, both of whom are contrarian idiots.

People that have never seen him play say the dumbest things, its like they have no actual knowledge.

The NFL and the media would have been terrified of a Titans - 49ers matchup. It might have gone down as one of the worst rated Super Bowls in history.

I'm going to try and enjoy this moment and the spectacle of it as much as I can. Hell, never had a reason to pay that much attention to it before. And now my Chiefs are the center of attention? Hell yeah I'm going to enjoy it.

I haven't watched a single superbowl my entire life.

Turn on ESPN
Bomani Jones is bitching about white privilege
Turn off ESPN

It'sAllSoTiresome.jpg

It's 3:30 pm and I've barely gotten out of bed. I made it to the couch where I'm watching every stupid sports pundit TV and reading the entire internet. I'm starting to get a crick in my neck...

Get out, really?

I wish there was a site that would grab any news about the chiefs and roster and team history so i don't have to go to espn.

Yeah I dont do ESPN, other than this site and a few others like SI most of my sports talk come from listening to Dan Patrick’s and Rich Eisens respective shows at work

Chiefs Wire is pretty good

Petro is a tool.

I've been watching everything for weeks about the Chiefs and it's glorious. And while it's kinda true that today's narrative is that he's only as good as he is because of the weapons, the true question that's being debated on every show:

A. Is Mahomes the greatest QB that we've ever seen and/or the greatest athlete in any sport at the moment?

or

B. Is Mahomes as good as he is because of his weapons?

Every show seems to have some guys in both camps.

https://bleacherreport.com/kansas-city-chiefs

This is as good of an aggregate for all things Chiefs I've seen.

watched a little today. Then off.

Should have listened to KFAN some today. They would have actually mentioned the Chiefs. Oh well.

Yep but IMVHO both are very lazy stupid narratives. I love Pat more than anything but everyone needs to slow the roll in regards to the greatest QB talk. We should all wait until after the SB to have that type of question. I have no doubt he will ball out much better than Goff did last year.

The other narrative about him only being as good as he is because of his weapons is mind numbing stupid. Every great QB had great weapons and heck we don't even have a running game. Just lazy...

I hope it's all about the 49ers

WIN

Espn and barstool are Bristol homers sour that they can't talk patriots. But ESPN's got some decent ones. Orlovsky and Riddick love themselves the Chiefs. The NFL network tends to have a much better crew. But best place to look is Twitter as long as you intentionally avoid the troll armies.

Yes, one b of the best parts is everyone wanting to talk about your team for 2 weeks

This will definitely be a story.


https://twitter.com/vinceschilling/s...736415232?s=21

I’ll do all of it

This will be another story:


https://twitter.com/mjacostatv/statu...519074817?s=21

Didnt want to post this in its own thread since its dumb and doesnt need a whole lot more attention but I thought CP might like to know what's happening.

https://www.foxnews.com/sports/patri...mmerman-tweets

I hadn't seen anything about this until today, but apparently someone went dumpster diving through old tweets before the afc championship game and posted mahomes tweets on George Zimmerman in a negative fashion (to gain traction, naturally) suggesting that mahomes was supporting Zimmerman and that the black community should 'cancel pat mahomes'. Instead of seeing it for what it was, which was pat talking out the situation with a friend and not taking sides at all, just discussion.

I hate twitter.

Found this gen on the youtubes:
