Heh, we had one of those. I liked that car.

Gas prices were .60 a gallon.

NBA Jam was the coolest game going. I played that shit on Gameboy all day!

Eric Hosmer was 4 years old.

The Royals had not played a season without George Brett on the roster since 1972.

Vince Evans was still a backup QB in the league.

Donahue was still on the air.

Jesus tits. I was 10. Pretty much every major event in my life has occurred since the last Chiefs playoff win. Profound. Profoundly depressing, but profound nonetheless.

That was my first car. It was blue and had less gay wheels, but it sure as shit was.

23 and living in Belton.

Learned how to talk, walk, etc. Went to elementary school, graduated high school, graduated college, lost my V-card, actually, pretty much everything that is significant in life.

The only important events that happened to me prior to that, since I was 9, was playing baseball and learning how cool matchbox cars, the Ninja Turtles, and legos were.

Damn you're almost collecting retirement :)

It started off shitty, the weekend the chiefs won their play off game i was at a car wash fun raiser for my uncles funeral. I had to watch the game on a damned portable 4 inch black n white tv.

Didnt really get to watch it all, because of washing cars, but i snuck away a bit to watch as much as i could.

Hmm, well, I've been married for an additional 18 years, added 4 children to our family, have resided in 3 different houses and two apartments. None of my kids have ever witnessed a chiefs playoff win and one of them will be graduating in 2 years. WE have owned 8 different vehicles between the two of us in that time as well. I also, became an uncle 5 times.

4321

I remember the Northridge earthquake was the very next day after the Oilers game. We had a snow day from school and I was pretty jacked up from the game the day before and no school, and spent most of the day watching earthquake coverage. Also the Raiders played their last game as the Los Angeles Raiders that weekend as well.

This aired in Jan 1994, around the time of our last playoff win. Whats the Internet?

I think this thread and the content in it should help explain to those who question the fandom of those of us who are frustrated and less tolerant of the dismal bullshit product being used to sodomize this fanbase for decades.

it's unacceptable.

What a depressing thread. I've never seen a Chiefs playoff win. Can't say I know what it feels like.

I was in the 2nd grade the last time the Chiefs won, And I was just starting to get into football at the time.

The last playoff win that mattered, I was riding a gunboat in Vietnam. That other playoff win just shows that an even blind squirrel finds an acorn once an a while. It'll be that way until a hunt is done for a new owner who lives and breaths football.

The Euro has already risen and fallen since our last playoff game. This organization is a laughing stock.

Saints won a Super Bowl
Rams won a Super Bowl
Tampa Bay won a Super Bowl
Seattle appeared in a Super Bowl.

Wow.

when we last won a playoff game nobody knew what a euro was yet

I have probably jacked off a thousand times or more since then.

Thinking about that, especially given where things were back in 93, looking at that list really hurts. We have been a completely inept dogshit organization, that was content with doing "just enough" to keep the fans interested, but never enough to build a REAL winner.

Damnit, Carl!:cuss:

Cardinals appeared in a Super Bowl
Falcons appeared in a Super Bowl
Patriots who had never been in a Super Bowl have bee in 5 now.

Pat's lost to the 85/86 Bears in SB 20

Only a thousand huh? You must be pulling some major pussy on the side.

Damn, I always heard none of you guys survived. Those gun boaters were as famous throughout the military as the helicopter door gunners at the time. Lots of scuttlebutt about you guys. :eek:

Damn, wait. Three times a week, 52 weeks in a year, and what 17 years. Thats 2652. Damn I need a ****ing hobby, or maybe I've found one.

In no particular order:

Graduated college
Got married
Had 2 kids
Had 3 dogs and 2 cats - 1 dog is alive
Lost 2 grandparents, my brother, one of my best friends
Lived in 8 different apartments or houses in 4 different states
Had 8 cars between my wife and me
Had 7 different jobs, the longest for 8 years the shortest for 6 months
Had season tickets/gave them up
Got fat
Drank a lot

kind of like this one?

Not sure what stories of which you refer. A 31' PBR armed to the teeth was more that charlie could handle. Feared on every river in the Mekong.

Tim F'ing T-bow has throw an 80 yard TD pass to win a playoff game, since the Chiefs have won a playoff game.


This same QB beat the Chiefs with 2 complete passes earlier in the season.


fml

****ing Christ. I was thinking we could've handled Pittsburgh easily with how they played tonight, but who am I kidding? We would have lost in the most heartbreaking, awful way. I just know it.

Oh, and I still had my race car bed in 1994.

New thread should be....

"Events in your life since the last Tim Tebow playoff win"

**** our lives as Chiefs fans. Just even more depressing.

mommy took my sucker away.

Graduated HS, joined the Navy, served four years and got out of the Navy. Lived in MO, SD, MO again, VA, NC, NY, PA. Joined the Army. Lived in TX, CO, WY and CO again. Deployed to Iraq three times, got married, had one child and my second will be born before a playoff win. Bought my first house in TX and then sold it and now bought my second house. This is all since 1991 when the Chiefs last won a playoff game. I have also had to deal with 15+ years of ridicule from military buddies for my love of the Chiefs and their ineptitude.

Houston lost a team, got one back and has a playoff win since then.

:banghead: that is depressing as hell

I don't even want to chronicle all the things I've done since that day in Houston.

LOL. Those are two of my favorite games of all time. FFIII, (or VI for the Japanese) is possibly the greatest RPG ever. Super Metroid is just so much fun. I actually bought an old 16 bit Super Nintendo and copy just so I can play it all the way through again.

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is very much like Super Metroid IMO and real gamers know its place in the greatest game list.

My son is 6'5", weighs 250 lbs, and could probably kick the ass of just about anybody here.

He didn't exist the last time the Chiefs won a playoff game.

That is a classic, but I still preferred FF VII and FF X over it.

Events in my life since the last Broncos playoff win?

I picked up burritos for dinner.

You like X? I actually like IX better. Too much voice acting and so much of a linear story in X. VII, though I agree is perhaps the one that you argue is better than or as good as III. That is also an awesome RPG.

I do. To me it is a great story line, I love the side games and the the battle system. It is linear, but once you can get past that and can explore the world it gets really good.

Lawrence F'ing Tynes is the hero game kick maker putting the Giants into the Superbowl...Again...since the Chiefs have won a playoff game.

I was a sophomore in high school when Joe retired Buddy Ryan in the Astrodome, wearing those shitty all-white road uniforms.

In the time since then, Ive graduated, worked here and there, gotten married and now have three kids, ages twelve, two, and one.

I honestly dont know why I root for a team more concerned with its bottom line than the pursuit of a championship. That 93-94 season was actually the first year I ever watched football. My uncle got me into it, and was telling me that we now had one of the greatest QB's to ever play the game and that he was going to get us to the superbowl.

It was all going so well until that shitload of feck that was the AFC title game. Marty benching Derrick Thomas for the first quarter or first half for being late to a team meeting, the slow start, the would be TD pass to Kimble Anders at the end of the first half that turned into a deflection and INT in the endzone, and then culminating with Bryce Paup and Bruce Smith utterly destroying Joe Montana.

I still see his head bouncing off the turf and his hands coming up to cover his face.

Enter Dave Kreig. Pitiful performance, with shots of Joe on the sideline wondering what planet he's even on. 30-13 we lose.

I remember the demeanor around the house after that game. It was like the life was utterly sucked out of everyone and it lasted a long time.

That happened again right around the time he who shall not be named missed three gimme fgs against the Colts.

Its a sad thing when you develop a mental defense mechanism that causes you to expect your team to lose in the playoffs. If they win, awesome.

But it aint gonna happen.

Almost all of them.

Watched the Patriots win 19 playoff games and go to 6 Super Bowls, the Red Sox win 2 World Series, and the Celtics and Bruins each win one Championship. How are the Chiefs and Royals doing?

I got a rock

http://assets.flavorwire.com/wp-cont...harlie-600.jpg

Which happens first?

Chiefs' playoff victory or Half Life 3 comes out?

I was going to list events from my personal life, since I've graduated from college, gotten married, divorced, and married again, and seen the birth of not 1 but 2 children.

However, I thought using an event from my work life was more appropriate.

The last time the Chiefs won a playoff game, the Interweb looked like THIS:

http://www.nsf.gov/od/lpa/news/03/im...saic.6beta.jpg

Please GFY

The last time the Chiefs won a playoff game, Windows for Workgroups 3.11 was all the rage!

Yup. I have no idea what you're talking about. I wasn't using computers when the internet looked like this. Too young.

A LOT of shit's happened since we last won a playoff game.
Question is...what ELSE will happen before we win another one?

If you are tired of a franchise with little or no results; you can join the Broncos.

This probably isn't the thread to discuss the long, agonizing seven months since a Boston sports team last brought home a championship, is it?



(sorry, couldn't resist)

Damn what a great thread

I remember sitting on my mom's couch crying (I was 8) when the Oilers went up 10-0 in the first half. She sat next to me and reassured me that the Chiefs would come back and win. Sure enough, they did. Since then I've:

- been through two cars
- joined the military
- been overseas six times
- got married
- am in the midst of having my first kid


Hard to ****ing imagine that a team has left Houston, came BACK and won a playoff game before these shitheads. If my first kid turns 8 and the Chiefs finally squirm to winning a playoff game, I'm going to spoil the next 20 years for him.




...I hate this goddamn team sometimes. Thankfully I've been able to experience at least one championship experience with the Penguins in 2009.

That's seriously how people back there like JD think. Oh god we wont beat the Giants. Brady sucks. Brady chokes. Theo and Tito sucked. No appreciation of anything. You would think the Patriots lost on Sunday.

Ahem:

My son was born a year later.
My band broke up for the first time
My band reunited many times and finally we've stuck together since 2005.
I started hunting deer in the Fall of 1997.
Both my kids have now graduated High School.
I have gained and lost so much weight it probably equals a whole other person
I changed careers twice and jobs 4 times.
I'm still married to my wife...who became a Donkey fan out of spite and it stuck.

Hence my username.

Why do we do it?
It's that glimmer of hope that hits us all each fall. Hope that a pitiful franchise that is in such turmoil may actually piece something together.
We see teams like the Texans, Bengals, Saints and Colts put it together and win a playoff game or even a championship and we say, "why not us?" Those teams were all once so pitiful yet they eventually got it pieced together. The NFL is a league that at any given time, will produce that cinderella story. The most awful teams in the league eventually make a run. Why can't we?
Well, that's why we do it. We're idiots.

A friend of mine worked on the development of Mosaic back in the day.

I was born, '96.

It was 1994 right? I'm not even sure who that guy was 10 years ago let alone that long. We hitched our wagon to a shit team.

ROFL

Wow.

1. Was a Kansan, became a Californian
2. Was single, became married
3. Was childless, now with two, one in college
4. Was a Republican, now a Democrat

When put in that perspective, they better draft a QB to develop next year or I may have to draft a new team to avoid football depression.

On January 15, 1995, I was looking forward to the AFC Title Game. Since then:

-I graduated from college.
-I've lived in Iowa, Michigan, Virginia, Washington DC, California, Texas, and California again.
-I met my wife, fathered 3 kids, and am one year from sending my oldest off to high school.
-I obtained a Master's Degree.

-I've changed careers, and then changed back.

Wife gave birth to my son 8 months after that playoff win. He graduated from high school last May.
