This makes me sad.<\/p>\n

It makes me sad because Gonzalez will still be a productive player in the NFL and is a known quantity compared to a draft pick.<\/p>\n

It makes me more sad because he’s the last guy left who I really connect to as a fan of the Chiefs. Matt Cassel and Dwayne Bowe may be Montana and Rice for the next five years, but Tony, Trent and Priest were the guys I spent most of my time rooting for over the last ten years.<\/p>\n

It has been hard to follow the Chiefs since Vermeil left, and I suppose a complete shake-up is called for, but it will be hard to let this one go. I will be a fan of the Atlana Falcons this year. Until they play the Chiefs.<\/p>\n

As Seinfeld said, in the end, we just root for laundry. <\/p><\/div>\n\n\n

Chiefs tight end Tony Gonzalez has never won a playoff game, and he has made his wishes clear that he wanted to play for a team that could contend for a championship.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Gonzalez got what he wanted on Thursday as the Chiefs worked out a deal with the Falcons. But general manager Scott Pioli said the Chiefs weren\u2019t shopping their 10-time Pro Bowler.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n
