The Kansas City Chiefs pretty much begged to be put into the Outhouse this morning. Anytime a professional football team drags a modern outhouse, a Port-a-potty, out on to its practice field, well, we're just useless to resist temptation.

According to the Associated Press, which someone ran with the headline "Stop the Drops", assistant coach Maurice Carthon came up with the practice maneuver. Pull a Port-a-potty out on to the field, stick a wide receiver in it and slam the door. When Carthon says go, another player pulls open the door and a football is fired into the john. "It teaches you hand-eye coordination," says receiver Dexter McCluster.

Carthon, a former standout at Osceola and Arkansas State, says he learned the trick not back home in the Natural State (thank God), but from coaches he served with at New York. It's a novel idea, one that can only help, since the Cheifs' passing game was in the ... toilet... last year.

So KC's in the Outhouse on purpose today, not because they did anything wrong. We've tried to stay away from our own "Stop the Drops" humor, but let's just say if the Cleveland Browns ever get to the Super Bowl, we can't say we can promise anything.
