Chiefs Fix: Spidey Day

by Draft

(Photo credit: sportsposterware.com)Spider-man is back, and to mixed reviews…

No, not Andre Rison… Tobey McGuire stars as Peter Parker/Spidey in Spider-man 3. According to RottenTomatoes.com, the sequel currently only has a 65% approval rating. While some reviews are yet to be counted, there is no way the latest installment will catch the previous two (both were in the top 10 of the site’s all-time “Comix Worst to Best” list; Spider-man 2 was ranked first overall, the original Spider-man was fourth.) Like Rison, it seems the real Spider-man may have finally written a check his ass can’t cash. Who am I kidding? It will make half its money back opening weekend.

While many of us are excited about Spider-man 3, Christian Okoye is more excited about Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End. In fact, he’s so psyched that he’ll be doing his best Jack Sparrow impersonation on an upcoming CBS reality show – Pirate Master. I wish I was joking. Looks like ____ ____ (I won’t dare utter that name any longer) isn’t the only Chief who recently became a Buc.

Watch Okoye’s Tecmo Super Bowl counterpart break 60 tackles during a 75-yard run.

Arrowhead Pride lists all our AFC West rivals’ draft picks in tables. Truthfully, after glancing at all the picks at once, the Oakland Raiders draft class is the only one that scares me. I really think that both the Denver Broncos and San Diego Chargers, specifically San Diego, blew it this time around. Chargers GM A.J. Smith is usually a draft ace, but not so much this year.

Scout Inc.’s Todd McShay gave his best and worst draft picks for each team recently. Here is what he said about the Chiefs:

Best pick: Dwayne Bowe, WR, LSU. The Chiefs finally spent a high pick on a receiver and they chose the right one. Bowe should start immediately opposite Eddie Kennison.

Worst pick: Tank Tyler, DT, NC State. Tyler is a second-round talent but the Chiefs took a big risk on a player with sizable character baggage.

When the guy who knows the draft arguably as well as anyone says that the worst thing about our draft was a character concern, we obviously brought in a pretty talented crop.

Great stuff from Saint Bernard, which when you hear the definition of that bread of dog, might be a good nickname for my man…

The St. Bernard Dog is a large breed of dog originally bred for rescue and as a working dog. A full-grown male can weigh between 150 and 220 lb

They also make good watchdogs, as their size can be intimidating to strangers

This season Watchdog Bernard will be let loose! Remember, Cujo was a St. Bernard. I know Pollard has some inner Cujo that he’s just salivating to unleash on his AFC West prey next season.

Congrats to the Golden State Warriors. I haven’t seen a choke job as bad as the one the Mavs pulled since Broncos let the Niners end their season!

lol, i just watched the tecmo bowl video. Okoye's a tank.

I remember a couple catches where he caught deep balls over his shoulder and right before he caught it he pretended to shoot web at it. His TD celebrations where he pretended he was spiderman climing the feild goal post were classic too. Say, didn't that crazy broad from TLC burn his house down? Last I heard he ran away to Toronto of the CFL to avoid jail time for not paying child support. And that's my childhood hero. What a guy.

Ah-ha... I remember that now. Quite well, actually. Just didn't know that was him.

Big chief your making me feel old again...lol

And as for RISON, it was he who started X-factor to get dressed up for games...before he was X-Factor he dressed as Spiderman for the games.

Man, way to bring back Andre. I love that guy. Rison was my first favorite chief ever. Then again, at that time I was 12 years old and easily seduced. But still, he's the guy who started it all for me. Thanks for the memories.

That's why I went with a little Okoye/Rison 101. Never fails in a tough spot.

I may have to start making up news like Scout.com does if its going to be this slow.
