No Priest?

What did I tell you about Priest Holmes?

It appears that, just two games into his improbable comeback, the Chiefs running back injured his neck, and doctors have advised him to hang it up. A news conference is scheduled for later today to make this announcement.

Larry Johnson is still out, and rumors are that he won't return this year. So, who does that leave for the Chiefs?

Do yourself a favor and go to your leagues website and type in "Kolby Smith" on your free agent search. Chance are he's still available. If he is, claim him immediately. Smith will be the de facto starter until LJ makes his return, whenever that will be. The Chiefs have a very favorable matchup against the Raiders and their weak run defense this Sunday. If you are hard up for a running back, Smith may be a good sleeper play. If he does well, you could even parlay that into a possible trade.

Claim Smith as soon as you read this.

What happened to the comments and questions? None whatsoever for the last two weeks. Ask me a question, tell me to bring back Off The Turnbuckle, something, anytning. I need some feedback, people.

Here's wishing you a very Happy Thanksgiving to you and your families. If you know me, you know I have a lot to be thankful for this holiday. Enjoy the turkey and the football.
