In his first 4 years with KC he had 808 carries for 3193 yards, for an average of 4 yards a carry. He had 33 rushing TD's,. He also had 130 receptions for 1067 yards and an additional 3 TD's.

And honestly KC didnt have as good a line as we do in my opinion.

Whoa, whoa, whoa - KC line during that period produced great rushing stats for whoever was in the backfield at that time - be it Okoye (how many great season did he have), Barry Word (!) and then Allen and whatever other trash was in that backfield. Their line was very good at that time - and so far our line - for everything they COULD be, haven't lived up to their expectations yet.

Personally, I think that the Smith signing had both positives and negatives and only time will tell how it turns out. NOW LET'S SIGN SOME ******* D-LINEMAN AND WRS!

Emmitt Smith was named the starter to sell tickets period, people are paying money to watch E Smith play Football, not sit on a bench. Even if Shipp outperforms Smith by 350% Smith will stay in the line up.:( , I' just hope they both feed off each other and become a nice Tandem

Why are you so bitter and also your last statement at the bottom of your posys sound quite racially notivative. Howard Cosell got in trouble for similar statements.

Wow, you are a complete ******, not only are you a ****** you are a moron as well. How the F*ck can you call my post racist??? Do you have phsychological problems. Read my damn post again and this sums up the situation perfectly. Your a pretty weird dude I would in all honestly fight someone who called me a racist in my face over nothing and by the way have you seen a pic of me to make a judgement about what race Iam as well???

Sorrt Devo you last post just proved my point. Your vocabular is quite good. you must be a very well edgamucated person. Don't like the "MONKEY" reference.

I do have 2 degree's and have taught GIS cpu mapping on the college level, so yes Iam a edgamucated person. Iam also a straight forward person and like to get to the point, My vocab gets the point across a little better, no ones too above calling another person a moron;) I think monkeys could do a better job at arguing with me.

Devon, can't you understand how the term "monkey" could be misconstrued? If yes - consider dropping the reference. If not - so be it.

While you're considering this you might also, and I write this respectfully, check the difference between the reference "there" and "their". Educated people know the difference.

P.S. . don't waste a "slam" on me.

I'm one of the last people to jump to Devons defense, but how can anyone take such a leap of logic at his Monkey's comment. Those who did are either very thin skinned or have racist tendacies themselves. I have often used the comment "Monkey's with crowbars" to describe my displeasure with some vendors lack of quality control. Having never visited their facility or meeting their personel I have no idea of their skin color and could care less. The comment has the same racial context to me as calling someone an Ostrich, ie.. hiding their head in the sand. Now since the word sand is in this statement does that mean I'm refering to anyone who lives in the desert.

If anything Devon and I are degrading animal species not human beings. Lighten up and discuss the true issues being discussed instead of trying to find an obscure way to win an argument.

Devon, you are free to use the Monkey's with crowbars comment if you so desire. I find the imagine a bit more impactful and funnier.;)

Let's give you the benefit of the doubt and assume, for the time being that you are sincere your outrage over someone calling your post racist.

But, since your comments seem to "look, sound and walk like a duck", could you please clarify your following comments in order to clear the air:

1. So what's with the monkey reference?

2. I also seem to recall that a few weeks ago in an earlier post, you referred to Rod Graves as "Bill Bidwill's monkey?"

- If Fergy or George Boone (echh!) was still GM and was acting the same as Rod Graves, would you have used the term "monkey" to refer to either of them also?

My God - some of you people are sensitive! Maybe he just means that our organziation could be run better by an animal that can't talk and has no opposable thumbs which would basically make him helpless in the NFL, but still better than our front office. I mean if he said the Cardinals will be good when Pigs fly, would you jump on him and say he had something against Cops? Ease up gentlemen - as far as Bidwill's monkey, well that one teeters on the edge a little more, but his signature doesn't offend at all.

you are a dumb moron as well, considering I'm half white and my brothers are black and many of my family is black, I also live with African Americans as well, you are the racist one, Ive never seen some many people who get offended so quick, you are probably the same A-hole that have confederate flags hanging in your bedroom

I love that you said that, I for one think it is completely ******** to have 2 theres and too's etc. o I refuse to buy into it, I use one there and 2 twos unless its something I would be graded on, I hete the diffrences of to, too, were where, there, their, there is no need too complicate our vocabulary too that extreme, I hate Emglish. It has no practical reason for many reasons, why is English the hardest language to learn, many rules are absurd
