On a different note I would highly encourage people to go read the article on ESPN about Sean Payton. Long article so plan accordingly but maybe the best inside scoop into Payton himself. Get to see how he functions.

Jones smokes A LOT of weed. I am just going to leave it at that. lol

The leaked text messages are hard to make heads and tails over, just seems like some obvious mental issues are apparent in how he goes about saying what he says, etc.
I know some folks that smoke a ton of weed and have for decades that I would consider high functioning people, but on the other hand I know far more people who smoke a ton of weed and hardly function at all. The difference I note is in the underlying personality where the high functioning folks seem to smoke to do shit where the others smoke to do nothing (except maybe play video games or watch movies).

Yeah. I think everyone knows people as you're describing above.

For the record. I was just saying Jones smokes A LOT of weed. I am not saying people who smoke weed are mentally crazy. I know very intelligent people who smoke weed and very unintelligent people who smoke weed.


Here is the story I was referring to one Jones from when he was with the Cardinals.



Jones has had several head scratching behavioral issues or comments he has made that have been a little bizarre throughout his career. I don't want to judge him without knowing him but he seems to have a history of some mental stuff going on.

Jeudy practiced again. So far no setbacks. Limited still. Denver will probably have a decision to make.

1. Play him vs Don't play him (obviously)
2. I would assume if he plays they are going to put him on a pitch count

With it being so early in the week if it were my decision he would have to be near 100% for me to play him. I'd still give him the week to rest knowing he would be good to go after this week. We will see. Either way the injury news from two weeks ago is SOOOO much better then it looked at first.

Honestly it’s a long season, so I would rather see JJ sit this one and be ready to go next week.

We aren’t in a “win and in” situation this week.

Not related to the game but thought this might amuse anybody who watched the game. Mahomes wants Kelce back ASAP.

I have a soft spot in my heart for Toney because he was a Florida Gator. Should have stayed on the Giants though if he didn't want me to laugh at this. ;) Wish it had been someone else but a Chiefs loss is a Chiefs loss. :)

I hate the Chiefs and Chargers....much more than the Broncos.

Chargers have been so insignificant for so many years you almost start to feel bad for them...Almost.

Chiefs have maybe passed the Raiders on my hate list, but I do live in the middle of Chiefs Kingdom and have found some decent Chiefs fans. I've only met 2 Raiders fans that I ever liked. One was at a Broncos/Chiefs game in Arrowhead where some Chiefs fans were following me and threatening to beat me up in the parking lot. Thankfully someone in a Raiders jersey walked by and they all turned around to chase him instead of me so that Raider fan might have saved my life. Then have a friend that has helped my family out that is a Raiders fan that I'm willing to overlook that flaw because he is a good guy.
