I assure you there's even more to be done.

Something EPIC is coming.

Call me nostalgic, but I've softened on Carl today. He did give us a helluva ride for most of the '90s. That said, I'm extremely pleased with the new regime and glad the franchise is moving forward in a new direction.

Aw hell, we're fine. And it WAS one magnificent day and a job well done by CP.

Wow, I can't believe I'm seeing all the loving comments for CP, Marty, Neil Smith, etc on this board! Could the ravages of time also bring similar love to Herm??

I'll praise Herm when he becomes Arrowhead's first male cheerleader. Not before.

I wish the Bills had gone to 3 out of 4 superbowls instead.

Yes, Carl Peterson, Marty Schottenheimer, and several key guys were involved in making the Chiefs a solid football team in the 90's, but Derrick represented the resurrection of Chiefs football, his contribution to the Kansas City community, and his love to the game and people in general.

This includes us. We, Chief fans, need to return the favor. When that day occurs this year to show respect for a legend, I will be very disappointed if the stadium isn't full, regardless of how good or awful the team is doing. Derrick Thomas has done alot for the city of Kansas City, on and off of the field. IMHO, Derrick would love nothing more than to have a sold-out Arrowhead Stadium, like it used to be in the 90's, loud, rocking, deafening. It's not because the fans should do it because it's a "honorable" thing to do, but it's the "right" thing to do.

When that day occurs, the journey is finally complete, and an era will finally end.

You mean we get an extension?! SWEET!!!!

There's a HUGE chasm of suck between Marty and Herman ****ing Edwards.

Imagine if you had been in a car accident and in a coma right after the 83 draft. Fast forward to today when you finally wake up and read that.

It would probably be massive horror for what you thought you missed, followed by hysterical laughter once somebody told you how his career and the Chiefs performed while you were out.

**mlyonsd** · 08-09-2009, 08:49 AM

I'm going to have to give kudos to Carl. I thought he did a good job. Say what you want (I sure have) about him as GM but it was evident to me he and Marty loved DT.

I only watched a little bit of it and it showed stevieray and the X guy standing together

InChiefsHeaven · 08-09-2009, 09:10 AM

I couldn't watch it in real time, I notice it's on again today at 12:30 on NFL network. Was Derrick the first one to be honored?
