It's an easy mix-up if you're not paying attention, but a Boston meteorologist is getting tired of the hate.

The wrong chief got all the grief.

Eric Fisher is a chief, but not a Kansas City teammate. He's a chief meteorologist at a local Boston television station.

Fisher said he'd been getting the mean tweets for the wrong guy for awhile.  

"I've been getting Eric Fisher tweets since he was drafted," Fisher said.

For nearly five years, Fisher has been dealing with all of the other Fisher's hate. Despite the criticism, Fisher said he's got a deal for the Kansas City Chief who shares his name.

"If he's watching or gets whiff of this, my Twitter handle is for sale," Fisher said. "If he's interested in being the Eric Fisher, we'll see what we can do."
