Speaking of TV

Looking forward to HBO's Hard Knocks, which will feature YOUR Kansas City Chiefs at training camp. This camp has no shortage of dramatic stories, from a quarterback competition, to LJ's holdout, to Jared Allen's suspension, to all the new rookies. Plus Herman Edwards is the human sound bite! But nothing should be more riveting to watch unfold than the story of the ghost known as Priest Holmes. Priest shocked the football world when he announced that he is reporting to camp almost two years after sustaining what we all assumed would be a career-ending hit from roid-crazed San Diego linebacker Shawn Merriman.

All Chiefs fans will surely be hoping that Priest has some of that magic left. The guy was once a touchdown-o-matic. He ran around those pulling linemen, caught balls out of the backfield, and generally found ways to dance into the end zone. Whether or not Priest showing up is a contract negotiating gimmick for Carl Peterson to get LJ under contract, this should be entertaining.....
