One dead as 22 shot near end of Chiefs' parade

One person is dead, and 21 others were wounded by gunfire in a mass shooting at the end of the Chiefs' Super Bowl parade Wednesday.

That's not good.

Taylor got people shooting up parades now

She has complete control over an army of irrational teenagers. She's the leader of a very bad group.

 

[Black Adam]

That's not good.

First I'm hearing about it. Not good for real...

SF DC Steve Wilks was the fall guy for the SB loss. Fired today.

SMH.

You don't think most of the Swifties are all buying those albums all over again? The 1989 redo is already over 2 million sold and Red is nearly at 1 million. None of her new albums have sold 3 million since the original 1989 in 2014 (at least according to last reported totals).

Of course they are buying them.

Because they want to.

Not because Taylor Swift is “making them” do it.

 

[tlance]

Are you a swiftie?

Haha.

No.

But I respect anybody that makes it to the top of their field.

 

[tlance]

Complicated? I mean, they all know how a regular game goes, right?

Look you don't like it and that's cool....but your reasoning seems strange. "Complicated?"

Yes.

First off…

It would be a 1/100 kind of OT that goes scoreless 30 minutes after a the first 2 possessions where the game is also tied, so not worth an at length conversation.

You obviously need time constraints in a normal game.

Sudden death OT though?

Why?

You end up arbitrarily punishing 1 team whose drive gets cut short at the end of the clock.

AND, we just decided it is favorable to get the ball second in the current format. Now you want that team to also get the ball first in the 2nd half of a sudden death OT?

Just let the game flow until someone scores. Keep it simple.

Yeah that's kinda BS...he wasn't as good as the 2 prior but defense is not why they lost the game. Like I keep saying, it was a super close game decided by random things like a missed PAT and a muffed punt. Also the GOAT QB doing GOAT things

Yeah they didn't do anything wrong on defense that game in terms of their gameplan/approach to the game

I had a lot more issues with the offense

The whole wold is of course ragging Shanahan for going away from the run in the 3rd quarter, and many of us here said so in real time. But again, either team could have won that game even with that offensive approach. More random shit went KC's way

Muffed punt completely changed the game more than anything else IMO

10-6 and SF about to get the ball back

If SF somehow find a way to score 7 on that drive instead of muffing the punt then the chiefs are in big trouble

 

[tlance]

Ok, except him.

Gotta love SF fans sucking Shanny's dick in that Wilks thread in the NFL forum.

LOL.

LOL. It's a mindless horde of fans, what else would be expected?

Not only is she re-releasing these albums, she's releasing multiple versions of them. The classic "soak your fans" move, putting a different bonus track on each version. She's not the only one that does this of course. There are 4 different versions of the new release of 1989.

You bought all 4?

I can't even name a song. Well, maybe one (and only because the Rock did a version on a TV show, lol).

Fans gonna fan. lol

It's smart business.

How many people have both #8 and #24 Kobe jerseys? Or #6 and #23 Lebron jerseys? Or #23 and #45 MJ jerseys?

And from what I saw this morning still no motive.
