Chiefs Exhibition Game Today

I felt I should put a blog post in today as the Chiefs exhibition season begins, but I generally say nothing about preseason football here. None of the games count except to see which of our finest players will be injured for when it does count.

I know most NFL'ers feel they must have four whole grueling preseason games for the expressed purpose of seeing which players can handle the pro game so rosters may be filled out. Thing is, if there were only, say, two exhibition games for all the teams, then wouldn't the amount of game time for seeing-how-good-your-guys-are be the same? So what difference does it make?

Anyway, just putting this post here too to let you know that I will soon be putting up my regular Chiefs season preview post. There are indeed a number of things on my mind about this upcoming Chiefs season, as always. I try to be the voice of one who has not been paying much attention to things because of my avowed sports celibacy, but I do confess that I have been peeking at a number of Chiefs things this offseason. Not a lot, but enough to color my impressions about our prospects.

I'd love to write more here, but today's exhibition game is on the NFL Network, so I'm off to enjoy it, well, enjoy it as much as I can while cringing every time one of our most valuable players gets clocked.

Until the Preview Post...

Go Chiefs!
