THE MORNING BREW Winston calls fans'reaction 'sickening and disgusting'
Welcome back, students. I hope you all had a great fall break and got a few things done -
which probably didn't happen. As we inch closer to our next break, Thanksgiving — and the subsequent beginning of Kenny G Christmas music — we have a lot to recap from the past weekend.
ERIC WINSTON CALLS OUT CHIEFS FANS
Mounting pressure on the performance of Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel came to a climax this past Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium. Cassel went down with a reported concussion, and Brady Quinn stepped in to play quarterback for the remainder of the game.
The controversy rises as Chiefs right tackle Eric Winston very publicly disapproved of the Chiffs fans' reactions as Cassel laid on the field Sunday.
National media latched onto the story, and Winston's interview went viral, calling the fan's actions "sickening and disgusting."
I agree with the general theme: Don't cheer for an injury, EVER. The people who did so have something wrong with them.
But Eric Winston, having played just five
games in a Chiefs uniform, generalized the Kansas City fans as a whole and embarrassed them nationally. People around the country need understand that what happened Sunday was not what Kansas City is about.
Author Michael Buckley describes this best: "You can't judge the many by the actions of the few."
Fans pay a lot to be a part of the Sunday experience and deserve to make the most of their entertainment. Just because you have the right to do something doesn't make it right.
Some of the Chiefs fans need to clean it
up. They don't just represent themselves; they represent Kansas City, too.
IS THE NEW MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WILD CARD A GOOD IDEA?
The MLB's new wild card rule adds an intriguing element to the postseason. Instead of one, now two wild card teams are selected to play a one-game playoff before the traditional playoff series.
This year in the American League, the Texas Rangers and Baltimore Orioles matched up in this game, as they would have under the old format. Both teams finished the season with a 93-69 record, which would have pitched them in a one-game playoff in seasons past. I have no problem here. Good excitement, good television, and the Orioles prevailed, a good story in itself.
The trouble comes from the National League, where the Atlanta Braves matched up in what turned out to be controversial game with the St. Louis Cardinals. The Braves entered the game with a 94-68 record, six games ahead of the Cardinals at 88-74. The Cardinals won the one-game playoff with a botched infield-fly rule, squandering a promising Atlanta rally. The
Braves feel like they were shorted the victory and a chance at the divisional round.
But is there any reason they should have played the game in the first place?
The Braves were six games ahead of the Cardinals during the regular season. This nullified the importance of their total body of work. Because of the new wild card rules and a little bad luck from poor umpiring, the Braves are no longer a part of the baseball postseason.

TCU quarterback to seek drug treatment
FORT WORTH, Texas — Texas Cristian University quarterback Casey Pachall has left the school and will seek care at a drug and alcohol treatment facility, coach Gary Patterson
said. Patterson said Pachall has an opportunity to enroll in the spring semester and rejoin the team.
"We want to make sure we can make this turn into a positive," Patterson said Tuesday. "Casey's parents, Casey and I, we all
agreed that there was only one way to change the path he was on — to step away from it"
Last week, Patterson suspended Pachall from competition after the junior's arrest early Thursday morning on suspicion of driving while intoxicated.
Pachall did not play in the Frogs' 37-23 loss to Iowa State last week.
Pachall started every game in 2011, setting TCU records for yards and completions. He was off to a good start in 2012 as the Frogs won their first
four games.
In July, a police report revealed that Pachall admitted to police that he had failed a Feb. 1 team-issued drug test. Later in February, four players, including Pachall's roommate Tanner Brock, were kicked off the team
after being arrested for selling drugs in a campus-wide drug bust. Pachall told police that he had tried cocaine and ecstasy in the past.
