Sorry to hear about this, OTWP.
I'm still a relatively new poster here, so I haven't been here and connected with the guys who've been here for 10+ years. But it sucks to see the good ones go. I stay clear of any Chiefs bs threads here anymore. Just not worth the energy to argue. I hope that you can take some time off of CP and be back for the season's start. You will be missed by many.

I'd just like to see a list of these dozens of geniuses who've left, who are these masterminds?... Parker? didnt always agree with him but sure, a top football poster IMO, but who else?

Who are these incredible minds, inquiring minds want to know?

Frankly, this whole idea of "who are the best football guys" is a bunch of popularity contest dogshit mixed with "who do I usually agree with"... as far as straight up X's and O's, theres basically Sorter and Sully... everything else is just informed (or not so informed in many cases) OPINIONS.

I've flipped you some shit over the years OTWP, for good reason IMO... but its still too bad you're gonna bail out right before the Chiefs best season in God knows how long.

You're as passionate about football and pay as much attention to it as anyone here... but the "football IQ around here lately" argument is just plain junk.

See you in three months.

And I do mean "for a bit", because you and I know that this place is internet crack and nobody not named Mr. Blonde stays away permanently. Step back, take a breath, and hop back in when we celebrate Alex Smith being league MVP with his 4,781 yd, 39 TD, 9INT season. :D

You're mah boy Blue, and five times the fan I am. You and I aren't done drinking at tailgates, even if I haven't shown my face out there lately. :D

He's just being pissy because people are actually excited to see this team in action for the 2015 season versus busting on Alex Smith 24/7, of which he's always been a major proponent of since the trade. (You can see this in the OP - defense carrying the team, etc.)

Back to back winning seasons and a real shot this year and he's bailing because he's left holding the tar bucket and bag of feathers with only two or three complete dingleberries standing behind him.

It's the constant battle of words.

Constantly clarifying what you said, when it shouldn't be absolutely necessary.

I get exactly what path mean't in his most recent argument, even if he didn't say it is such exact words that there could be no misinterpretation.

This team had talent before Reid and Dorsey arrived.

It's time for me to bow out. It's been almost 10 years, and I'm tired.

Tired of the false narratives. Tired of people arguing the poster instead of the post. Tired of discussing football with people who favor excuses over evidence. Tired of wasting time talking about an organization that hasn't won a playoff game in the lifetime of a college senior. Tired of watching other great posters leaving entirely or posting less, weakening the Football IQ this place was known for 5-10 years ago.

I know posting a thread instead of just walking away will open the door for many to take their cheap shots - we all know who they are - and if you don't, just wait. They'll show themselves. Those of you that know me privately know this has been building for a long time.

With all that said, I'll say what I've always said: This team has talent, but will continually fall short as long as they keep thinking you can win in the postseason consistently with average QB play. You don't put enough pressure on the opposing defense, and it puts too much pressure on your defense - if they don't have a near-perfect day, you lose.

Peters and Conley were great picks and should make an impact in the years to come. Should be fun to watch. (What? According to some, I NEVER say anything positive - just another false narrative) While I doubt he'll get his shot, I'd like to see if Murray can be that franchise guy, or if he fell for reasons other than what people here assume - namely, his height and injury history. Hopefully they get Houston signed long-term, because if they don't they are in deep, deep shit. The defense tends to carry this team, and Houston is the most important cog in said defense.

I've made a lot of great friends here that are still friends to this day, and will continue to be. This place was awesome when it was more community based - when there would be gatherings, tailgates, etc. Now, it's littered with trolls that take advantage of the anonymity of the internet and would never show their face in public. That attitude has weakened this place considerably, IMHO.

For those of you I call a friend, we'll be in touch. If anyone that isn't already a friend privately or on Facebook/Twitter wants to continue to keep in touch, I'll keep my PM's open for a week or so.

Thanks, Kyle. It was fun for a while. Queue the "well, bye/sour grapes" posts in 3...2...1.

I remember when you came on board. You do have some nice opinions. And it is nice to see differing ones as well.

Do what I do. Read what interests you on the first page. Then only read the first page of the thread unless it still interests you. Assume what ever you were gonna say has or will be said. Thus have very little emotional connection. Move on to your next site of choice.

Its funny. It used to be the old guard hounding noobs till they made pussy threads like this, now its the other way around.
God forbid they still have the blind hope we lost years ago or else you'll have to act like a bitch and leave.
FTR I always thought you knew you're shit.

I thought they were being rather objective.

OTW thought it was going to be like this:
