Probably the biggest Chiefs-related news of the day was Todd Haley getting hired as the Steelers' offensive coordinator. As a general Todd Haley fan, I wish him the best. I think Pittsburgh is obviously a great fit for him.
This is your open thread to talk about Todd Haley or whatever else you want.

Is it Friday yet?
JComp11 - February 7, 2012 via Android app
it's always Friday somewhere in the world in somebody's mind
upamtn - February 7, 2012
Some of us are so far ahead, we're behind.
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
so, that elephant ...
really?
upamtn - February 7, 2012
not a fan eh?
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
oh, it was AWESOME
I mean … was it really real? seriously for real?
upamtn - February 7, 2012
let's let everyone judge for themselves
also fellas, the site I found it on is not bad as well.
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
Oh nose!
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
pure joy that is
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
well, it does look like a "loop" but yeah ... happy elephant there
upamtn - February 7, 2012
Romney?
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
ha
so that’s what waffling looks like
upamtn - February 7, 2012
speaking of which ... seems Romney was here in Colorado yesterday, caucus coming up here
said in his speech he thinks minimum wage should be indexed to inflation
every other Rep rags on him for it as they all want to totally end minimum wage completely … even though as it is it’s poverty level income, they want to get rid of it completely
the idea of $5/hour take it or leave it jobs is frightening
upamtn - February 7, 2012
I'm surprised he's getting away with that.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
Tooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cute!!!!!
LadyChief - February 7, 2012
:)
BTW, was wondering what you thought of the site: http://chicksinthehuddle.com/
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
I need to get back over there and help out......................
I signed up earlier
LadyChief - February 7, 2012
do it!
i keep checking in to see if there’s any Chiefs stuff. I’m following that HuffPo chick now in case she drops anything.
the point is, I’m using any and all resources to get my gal ready to go to a game (and be excited about it) next year
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
well done! that's a fun site :-)
upamtn - February 7, 2012
Is Mitt losing in CO?
LadyChief - February 7, 2012
I have no earthly clue
nor will I care until November
upamtn - February 7, 2012
He is
LadyChief - February 7, 2012
This primary is rediculous.
Why are we wasting $7 million on something that literally doesn’t matter since Missouri isn’t giving delegates until the caucus? I know there’s a law and stuff, but I don’t think anybody would have minded if we would have just canceled it.
wustl_chiefs_fan - February 7, 2012
Or ridiculous if you're into spelling.
wustl_chiefs_fan - February 7, 2012
It is beyond stupid
LadyChief - February 7, 2012
That was some Bowl on Sunday.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
better than the puppy bowl
but not by much
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
Woof
woof
ExRoyalsFan - February 7, 2012
Oh snap!
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
hope it;s a long count ...
upamtn - February 7, 2012
Tasteless tight end joke here ;)
ArrowheadHunter - February 7, 2012
She's probably calling an edible.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
Manning or move up
Jeff Fisher wasn’t here interviewing for the HC job. He was here working out the details of our draft day trade. RGIII!!!!!!!
Then I woke up to average ness :(
ArrowheadHunter - February 7, 2012
defense wins championships
but Mike Vrabel retired
upamtn - February 7, 2012
RgIII is the man tho
He will play QB, NT, and RT
ArrowheadHunter - February 7, 2012
Mims won't have anything to do!
upamtn - February 7, 2012
We still need an OL coach.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
He can return 100% focus to his main job
Spinning the Earth on the tip of his finger
ExRoyalsFan - February 7, 2012
Or by just running in place.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
I cannot wait til Friday!
Of course next Friday is the next day I have a day off…
C’MON BABY!
Cowboynchrist - February 7, 2012
I thought #7 looked a little different?
This may may explain a few things………
Wichita Chief - February 7, 2012
LOL
upamtn - February 7, 2012
Haley will have a good opportunity to succeed in Pittsburgh without upper management sabotaging him. I wish him a lot of luck.
Topchief1 - February 7, 2012
Haley boarded a train already moving
Like when what’s his name took over the colts when Peyton was playing and they went to the Super Bowl.
ArrowheadHunter - February 7, 2012
a train his father boarded long before many on here were born.
that todd haley, everything he does is because of what was handed to him the second he took the job…thats basically what you’re insinuating.
watch those wr’s take it to the next level under haley. and yes, with big ben, a proven qb in place, he has some pieces to make things work, and no one will be forgetting his name considering at the end of the day you are still part of the steelers family when they accept you in, arians always will be, and now todd will be.
so if he succeeds, its due to what he has on roster, if he fails, its because hes a terrible coach and a hobo.
whatever
SDChief - February 8, 2012
Steelers sealed their fate this year
I see alot of 10-7 scores in their future. Can’t wait till we beat the shit outta em this year!
KCinIL - February 7, 2012
With the Day-Bull 'attacking' Troy and the boys
ExRoyalsFan - February 7, 2012
Book it!
KCinIL - February 7, 2012
Troy?
Aikman is coming out of retirement?
upamtn - February 7, 2012
Hey, might be the only way for Haley to look good again
KCinIL - February 7, 2012
Don't we trade wins with them?
If I’m correct, it’s our turn.
CMatthews - February 7, 2012
Yea its our turn
But it is in Pittsburgh and idk if we can win in a hostile Pittsburgh, especially with Cassel at QB
NJChieffan16 - February 7, 2012
I’m glad you feel that way. But consider this… to Steelers fans (like me) this was one of the worst seasons in recent memory. We still won 12 games….it’s all good here.
If Haley can utilize our weapons on O, our old defense won’t matter.
FrankWyt - February 7, 2012
Thats the thing
He wont utilize your offense. And Bruce was still miles better than Haley. And I never said done forever, but your offense is going to suffer once he starts calling the plays.
KCinIL - February 8, 2012
But I am curious as to how we “sealed our fate” Not to start an argument..just curious
FrankWyt - February 7, 2012
hope it all works out for you guys, and thanks for stopping by :-)
upamtn - February 7, 2012
I’m sorry if you felt like i was trying to start crap. I was just asking a question and responding to that guy who basically said we were done forever
FrankWyt - February 7, 2012
no no no
looked on your second comment as if you were apologizing or something … it’s all good, man
some here will say that (ie, that Haley is horrible yadda yadda) others will say you’ll do well, he’ll do well
some will be in the middle
we’ll see what happens, but you guys have one helluva team, and one helluva classy operation there … major props, Sir!
upamtn - February 7, 2012
I can say one thing about Haley… He is a polarizing figure lol..
There is no middle ground. People either love him or hate him…
I wasn’t a fan of the hire. But I came to my senses, and I’m going to at least give him till mid season next year before I judge.
That said, thank you for the kind words, they are greatly appreciated.
FrankWyt - February 7, 2012
Unrelated…my best friend is a Chiefs fan…so…I’m always rooting for them too (unless they are playing my Steelers of course)
FrankWyt - February 7, 2012
ha! aesome ... we need all the fans we can get
btw, can we borrow The Hair for a few years?
upamtn - February 7, 2012
I’m not sure how much he has left to be honest with you…
FrankWyt - February 7, 2012
#44 is reading the SB KC article about keeping him.
yes please!
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
Sweet.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
i'm a big fan
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
as are you i see
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
Yep.
He was #1 on my FA wishlist last year, and he didn’t disappoint (though how he was used was often disappointing). I like him even more now, after seeing what a leader he is. That article is pretty spot on, about how he’s Pioli’s type of player, versatile on the field, as well as a great clubhouse guy.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
yes and yes and yes
He came on a bit there at the end and it was gooooood.
Really can’t wait to see what a full off-season does for the whole team.
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
that right there is purty dayum kewl beans
Pioli may not read AP, but trainers do!
upamtn - February 7, 2012
SBN-KC, actually.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
stickler
let the man dream
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
He'll be running all of SBN soon anyway.
Speaking of dreaming.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
Niiiiiice [Mike Tyson voice]
Sign him up
ExRoyalsFan - February 7, 2012
Awesome.
McClain is a great piece of the offense. I hope we can get something longer term worked out with him.
bamachief5558 - February 7, 2012
I'm sure our shiny new OC would agree.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
is that a bald guy joke?
ExRoyalsFan - February 7, 2012
Heh.
No, but it should have been.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
Pay the man, play the man.
nateforchiefs - February 7, 2012
F*ck the chiefs if they do not go out and get a real qb
I am tired of watching a very talented team that lacks the most important position player. Open the check book clark, Lord knows you have the cap space. Being a chiefs fan is so frustrating.
PS
Congrats Todd, I hope you get a ring(assuming we dont make the playoffs)
Chef's Kitchen - February 7, 2012
F Hunt, F Pioli
Don’t F the Chiefs
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
HAHAHA
Very true sir, I apologize.
Chef's Kitchen - February 7, 2012
Cassel will most likely be the QB next year.
But, I’m sure they won’t miss you.
And, it ain’t Clark.
ArrowSpread - February 7, 2012
I bleed Red and Yellow, I am not going anywhere.
Just voicing my frustrations. I thought we were allowed to do that here.
Chef's Kitchen - February 7, 2012
Saying fuck the Chiefs on a Chiefs blog is probably not the best way to show support.
nateforchiefs - February 7, 2012
he qualified it (if they don't ...)
upamtn - February 7, 2012
Does that mean if they dont get a QB to his liking he'll quit being a fan?
nateforchiefs - February 7, 2012 via mobile
nah
just pissed that they didn’t listen to him again this year :-)
upamtn - February 7, 2012
Looking back on it, I do eish we had gotten
Sherrod instead last year…
nateforchiefs - February 7, 2012 via mobile
good man, nate
I don’t care what everybody else says about you :-)
upamtn - February 7, 2012
he went to the pack didn't he?
LadyChief - February 7, 2012
I think so
upamtn - February 7, 2012
or Da Bears
upamtn - February 7, 2012
Bears ... Pack got Bulaga
upamtn - February 7, 2012
didnt he get carted off in the game against us
Rupert Daniels - February 8, 2012 via mobile
Your right. The chiefs are the best team ever. They win in the playoffs all the time.
Pardon me for expressing how I feel. I wouldn’t be on this “blog” after another season of finishing last in the AFC WEST, If I was not a true chiefs fan. Don’t everrrr question my loyalty.
Chef's Kitchen - February 7, 2012
Calm down son
nateforchiefs - February 7, 2012 via mobile
Chef, is that you?
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
naw those aholes matt and trey killed me off.
Chef's Kitchen - February 7, 2012
Eh.
Isaac Hayes killed you off.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
tear
Shanghai_Chiefs - February 7, 2012
I couldn't agree more ... we need David DeCastro!!!
upamtn - February 7, 2012
DeCastro's middle name happen to be Spoon?
Buck'O - February 7, 2012
first name is really Derek
upamtn - February 7, 2012
similar man-crush though :)
You know something? I know nothing (really)
about him. You have a link?
Buck'O - February 7, 2012

upamtn - February 7, 2012
Interesting read
Buck'O - February 7, 2012
yup ... I be droolin' for that guy
upamtn - February 7, 2012
I found a cool gif
motrepip - February 7, 2012
I remember that
amazing!
Buck'O - February 7, 2012
BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK-O!
upamtn - February 7, 2012
Que Pasa there Ups?
Buck'O - February 7, 2012
nada latta ... you get dat mail I promised and sent?
upamtn - February 7, 2012
No actually?!?!
big attachment?
Buck'O - February 7, 2012
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm no ...
upamtn - February 7, 2012
TWSS
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
"Look at the attachments section, should be links that say 'view' and 'download'.
"I don’t see it… "
“Check the bottom.. should be at the bottom of the email… "
“I’m telling you, there’s nothing there.”
“Isn’t there a preview, or a thumbnail, or something???
“hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm no …”
“Oh wait, I see something…. Nope, nevermind. Just a dead pixel.”
ArrowSpread - February 7, 2012
In my own high mind, that made sense.
ArrowSpread - February 7, 2012
looking through the mail filter logs to see what's up.
dammit!
Buck'O - February 7, 2012
guess it helps if I actually, you know, do the email and hit send, huh
on da way :-)
upamtn - February 7, 2012
i feel...
strangely like a hamster in a wheel
Buck'O - February 7, 2012
keep moving or Joel will be VERY disappointed
upamtn - February 7, 2012
Despite all ups' rage, he is stil just a rat in a cage...
OT: Our new offensive coordinator looks like Billy Corgan’s ex-jock older brother. Discuss.
go_saleaumua - February 8, 2012
holy crap. To quote an old Maddenism in one of the Madden games. “he’s got moves on top of moves”
FrankWyt - February 8, 2012
I hope we still get plenty of motivational poster/shirt stories now that haley's gone
he was always goof for one or two a year…
LHO - February 7, 2012
No more cornholing I guess.
NTTAWWT.
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
every time I see that word it makes me thing Beavis & Butthead
and the only thing dumber than that is Napoleon Dynamite
upamtn - February 7, 2012
Boom!
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
Haley's a very good coach. He will make Pittsburgh a better team
The Chiefs were a much better team at the end of his time here than when he arrived. It wasn’t just Haley, of course, but he had guys playing MUCH better than Herm did. He’ll do the same with Pittsburgh.
cvane - February 7, 2012
just think what he'll do with mike Wallace and real qb.
Rupert Daniels - February 8, 2012 via mobile
Mike Wallace is so over rated. He is fast….that’s it. If a ball isn’t laid perfectly in his hands, he doesn’t even try
FrankWyt - February 8, 2012
He made it!
Tarkus - February 7, 2012
