I still watch. I think I'm smart enough to separate the wheat from the chaff.

Keep the incident fresh in everyone's mind and stoke the fires of racial hatred.
Remember, there's a ton of money, political points, and publicity to be made from this young man's unfortunate death .

Pretty much the only reason I will watch. I like the guy and think he might be the one bright spot in a league that is going dark.

The folks in the "in crowd" are working overtime to keep us divided. The world is a stage.....

This^^^

Watching big 12 basketball tonight. I watch to keep awake.

Don’t give 2 chits about the NFL or any of the overpaid social justice warriors participating in it. They lost me with the American hate a couple years ago. F them.

Yep I like Mahomes, the mainstream media is already trying to tear him apart too. Digging up twitter posts from 2013 when he and his friend were going back and forth about the travon Martin case. They’re trying to tear him down because he did pick sides. I’m guessing just because he is half black he was supposed to be on the BLM side.

Mahomes must be a decent kid if the media hates him.

Yep normally if if MSM hates em, I like em.

I will watch it just to see if I made it in the Sonic commercial. Drove by the Kyle Sonic while they were filming it.

Yep great young man

The Chiefs' star quarterback spends his free time building houses for veterans.





The biggest new star quarterback of NFL doesn't get a lot of free time. Practicing is as important as game time, so when the time comes to relax, it's understandable that a young football star might actually rest. But it turns out Patrick Mahomes, the Kansas City Chiefs' young QB, is a star both on and off the field.

The second-year QB spent his day off helping build transitional housing for veterans in the Kansas City area with The Veterans Community Project, a non-profit that's building a specialized community network of tiny homes and services dedicated to supporting every man and woman who served — also known as Tiny Houses for Homeless Vets.

The founder of the Veterans Community Project, Chris Stout, is a former U.S. Army corporal who was wounded in Afghanistan. His own transition into civilian life was marked by trouble with PTSD and employment issues. Though not homeless himself, he told CNN he was shocked at the inefficiencies he witnessed in the programs designed to help vets escape homelessness.

When Stout discovered homeless vets shunned shelters because they were unsafe and lacked privacy, he paid for hotel rooms out of his own pocket to keep these heroes off the street — but that too was inefficient. Eventually, he and his friends left their jobs to start the VCP, helping veterans first and asking questions later.

Clusters of tiny houses made perfect sense. That's what VCP builds for veterans. They offer privacy, dignity, and a chance at recovery for those who need a hand up.

"We are the place that says 'yes' first and figures everything else out later," Stout said. "We serve anybody who's ever raised their hand to defend our Constitution."
Chris Stout is currently one of CNN's Heroes, an annual event where the cable news network honors ordinary people who make big changes in the world at large. Stout is up for CNN's 2018 Hero of the Year Award. You can vote for him here.

The Veterans Community Project has built 13 homes in the Kansas City area and plans to double that number by Nov. 8, 2018. Some veterans housed there have been there since January 2018 while some have already made their way into more permanent housing. The goal for the VCP is to have 49 homes and a 4800-square foot community center built by the end of 2019.

For Mahomes, it was an important part of being welcomed into the Kansas City community. The Chiefs star QB wasn't able to risk a lot in terms of heavy lifting, but someone has to paint the houses.

Yep, he’s alright. Painting sucks.
