NFLPA Survey: Clark rated with an F-
I don't get this.

LMAO

LOL wow
Guess it's time for the Hunts to update the facilities. No wonder they're making a stink about the coming upgrades. I wonder what's behind the locker room getting an F. They just upgraded the locker room. Anyway, you can file this under "as a fan, I don't care." This is millionaires complaining about a billionaire. It is a pretty fascinating look behind the curtain however. If all you did was consume Chiefs-produced content you'd get the impression that the entire experience of being a Chiefs player was heaven on earth. |
They had a bad report card last year with some of the same complaints.
|
Also there's more than a little weirdness in here too.
Like, Stephen Ross was an A for Dolphins players!? Stephen Ross? |
Interesting timing
|
That seems really strange the training staff getting a F. They were lauded across the board after the handling of Pat's high ankle sprain last season.

I guess we know why that renovation plan was getting released today. Now Clark will have to beg the taxpayers for the money.
|
I'd like to see the questions that get ownership to an F-.

I would think this report would belong to the Chargers. Training room 31st, training staff 32nd.
|
I thought they redid the locker rooms when they renovated Arrowhead years ago?
|
The 49ers won two Super Bowls in a facility with a 40-yard practice field.
Live in a dungeon and become king. |
Clark just massively upgraded the locker room 3 years ago. This can't possibly be an F man come on.

Oof. NGL, that's a real bad look for Hunt. At first glance I thought they meant the Championship they'd just won, but they're referring to the 23 off season.
|
Reading the ratings for the locker room I am wondering because of the age of the stadium it is not easy to expand it. That seems to be the main issue.

If anyone has taken the arrowhead tour, like me, the locker room is state of the art!! It’s fantastic!! I can’t possibly understand what’s missing? Stripper poles? Open bar? Ice cream machines?
Sounds like sour grapes to me. |
It's all about the facilities... especially their locker room which is outdated.
Clark probably should have invested in upgrades previously, but now the timing doesn't make sense to do anything substantial as they are about to do the massive Arrowhead renovations. |
What the ****? Do they expect a new locker room every season or something?
Buncha goddam genZ pussies... |
Having lived through 20 years of that shit-stain Dan Snyder in DC, I don’ get this at all. Win Super Bowls, seemingly treats people fairly, no off-the-field drama from the owner, hot daughter, what’s not to like? To me, the Hunts seem like the best owners in the NFL by FAR.

Perhaps the players are unhappy that there are no decent cheerleaders to fornicate with. The buck stops with Clark Hunt on that one.

So it's the practice facility and locker room they're upset wiht?
|
Didn't we go through this already?
And then win a Super Bowl? Again? Well at least this should give Buffalo fans something to be excited about. |

But anyways, the locker rooms in the chiefs practice facility are pretty damn outdated. |
Some of these things are very easy to fix. It isn't hard to upgrade the weight room and weights, get more training staff, and fix the food.
Some of these other complaints like size\space are due to Arrowhead being old. |
All the players said they loved the Raiders facilities during the Super Bowl week.
Better upgrade the practice facility, Clark. |

Whatever man. Millionaires bitching about billionaires. ****ing practice locker room vs. gameday locker room. Shut the **** up already...sheeesh... |

The Chiefs practice facilities and locker room are light years ahead of even Redwood city and yet they still complain. How much luxury do you need to play sports? |

So the takeaway should be that surveys have no impact on winning.

I would bet money the teams who have the best rated facilities don't have a lot of playoff wins in the last five years. |

I mean in all reality the practice field locker rooms could be redone for what Clark likely made for 1 playoff game.

It's not. I understand why the players don't like it - it's not at all impressive in person, regardless of the photographs. That said, there's just not a shitload that can be done quickly. You'll have to excavate further area under the stadium to expand it. I can't speak to the training facilities or anything - they didn't let us go back there. But the locker room is nothing to write home about. I suspect the overwhelming majority of guys came from better lockerrooms in college if they played at Power 5 schools. I know Mizzou's is better. |

The players want the shiny new training/practice facilities that have recently been built in Dallas, Minnesota, Miami, Las Vegas, etc.
This is where the players spend most of their time during the season and these facilities include a locker room that is used way more frequently than the home stadium locker room (that the Chiefs renovated at Arrowhead in 2021 but it's only used on gamedays). Is it a bad look for well paid players to be crying about facilities? Maybe, but that is what they are expressing with these survey results. |
Knowmo and daquix just sent loads to the moon
|
Gents…
The Kansas Jayhawks are about to have better football locker rooms for their practices than the Chiefs. I’m a proud Jayhawk fan, but that absolutely should be looked at as a priority for ownership. If Clark really did make a promise and not follow through with it, then this feels pretty understandable. |
Quote:
I do think the players are moreso talking about the locker room at the practice facility than at Arrowhead. The one at Arrowhead is comparable to others around the league and plus, they only have to be there a few hours 10-12 weeks a year. The practice facility one where they are there for multiple hours a day for 6 months a year is just bad. Them getting new chairs instead of the stools they had as their upgrade is kind of hilarious LMAO |
Quote:
Where you shower and change clothes. Remember the franchise episode that had the opening going through that locker room? The only thing that caught my eye was how messy it was. I imagine Clark will come through and solve this first world problem. |
More meaningless ****ing offseason bull shit. Pathetic...
|
How do the Packers get rated higher? Their stadium is older than dirt.

Also the indoor practice facility has very little sideline in areas. This is what led to Nazee Johnson's injury last year, and IIRC someone smashed into a door and cut themselves on the glass a year or two earlier.

I think it’s BS too but we do have one of the best locker room environments in the league and players getting along is a big part of that…. And.. Winning.. |

They get off the plane and visit the homes of the dudes they are about to play against.

And when you compare this to the Chiefs current practice facility... yeah there is no comparison. https://static.clubs.nfl.com/image/p...wmad5sz9vg.jpg https://static.clubs.nfl.com/image/p...hxsag50ikb.jpg https://static.clubs.nfl.com/image/p...jpjt70djhw.jpg https://static.clubs.nfl.com/image/p...usocivkx4t.jpg |
