Zach and I suspected that this could possibly be an April Fool's joke, and with no other sites reporting Warpaint Illustrated's Jeff George-Chiefs story at this hour, it looks like that's exactly what the report was. Too bad. I actually got somewhat pumped about George donning the red, white and gold, even if half of my reasoning was based solely on the entertainment value of the situation.

Honestly, it was a pretty good little joke, considering that the site is typically reliable and that the Chiefs adding George is somewhat of a possibility. Hey, it was a much better prank than people on MySpace.com posting bulletins stating that Johnny Depp had died of a heart attack. Couldn't they muster anything better? Anyway, Warpaint halfway got us, but hopefully by us posting this we took some people along for the ride as well. Remember, Truman Sports Complex is located in Missouri, and Missouri loves company. Now I am even more determined to help get Whitlock's boy on a roster!

What started out with me jokingly speculating that aging and unemployed QB Jeff George may wind up with the Kansas City Chiefs is no longer just a joke or even merely speculation. WarpaintIllustrated.com is reporting that George and the Chiefs agreed to a one-year deal Saturday night, making the Chiefs George's eighth NFL team. I thought that George would be back in the league, albeit most likely only briefly. I absolutely did not expect for him to really end up a Chief. I only expected his boy and KC Star columnist Jason Whitlock to suggest it to Chiefs GM "King" Carl Peterson. But King Carl actually signed George! As far as how shocked I am, on a scale of 10 I'm a 17.

If this is true, the next logical question is what incriminating pictures of King Carl does Whitlock possess? Last year, after two years of heavy campaigning from Whitlock, Herm Edwards barely convinced King Carl to make a no-brainer move and finally ink veteran star CB Ty Law. Now Carl signs George without even a peep from Whitlock? Unbelievable. Whitlock has to have something on Carl Peterson. I'm just convinced of it. Either that or George really did a helluva JaMarcus Russell impersonation and rocket-armed the ball all over the field in a workout.

If this is really true, what does it mean? Is a Trent Green move on the horizon (I've heard Miami really wants to get a deal done soon)? Is George actually going to see any burn? Or is he simply here to hold a clipboard and mentor Green's likely heir apparent -- Brodie Croyle? And what does this mean for Damon Huard, the Chiefs interim QB? Will George even still be on the roster come opening day? I guess only time will tell. Until then, we'll keep you posted with "George Watch".
