MVC Theme - 2009

I usually wait to reveal this later in the year; however, with the new website, Clint Baer moving, and a new coach, I couldn't wait any longer. So, I with great excitement and anticipation, the 2009 MVC Theme is:

March can't come soon enough. Hard to believe it will be our 11th year.

Chiefs Thoughts...A Week Late

I listened to the game last week on the radio, and I came away with some different conclusions than Matt. I am done with Croyle. I am tired of waiting for him to show just a little bit of progress. Now, I enjoyed the game through the filter of the smooth stylings of Mitch Holthus, Len Dawson and Art Haines, and I understand that Len Dawson does not respect any KC QB except Joe Montana (I think he grew to like Trent Green though) and takes any chance he can to criticize one. Croyle just sounded inept. I don't think it is too much to ask him in his second season to put together two to three TD drives in a game. I am not expecting Al Saunders - Trent Green - Priest Holmes numbers, but this team should be able to put 21 points on the board week in and week out.

Jamal Charles has got the stuff to make it big. He showed flashes of greatness. I think you will see his playing time increase and Larry Johnson's decrease as the year progresses.

As for the pass defense, the front four sounded like they can finally put some pressure on the QB. However, the run defense is weak. There were some large holes for Sammy Morris, which concerns me. The bright spot was Tamba Hali. He was all over the place make tackles. He is my player of the week.

The secondary and linebacker core I do not really have an opinion on yet. Stay tuned.

NFL TV Maps

I found a good site to determine what NFL games will be airing each week in your area. The name of the site is NFL TV Distribution Maps. I will preempt Martin by saying, yes I know that you have Sunday Ticket and have no need for this site...jerk.

Embarrassing

Missouri State lost to the D-II Washburn Ichabods last night 35-27...the ICHABODS! Coach Allen said it was the worst team that he ever fielded for a game. I had to eat crow this morning to people I work with who are SIU Saluki fans. If you want to read all about the disasterous game, read the article at the News-Leader. I have heard that Coach Allen is the last chance to save the football Bears. Given his tract record, if he can't do it, I don't think anyone can. This is just sad. I can't discuss this any longer.
