There's so much negatively when they get behind. Or they have a bad few games. It's more than just 1-2 posters as well.

It's weird to me after all they've accomplished to take some meaningless game in the middle of June or July and talk about how much they suck or how the season is over. I'd say some of it's joking but I can tell many of them are serious.

It was just an observation and a little funny. We're all fans so it's cool.

There's frustration and there are emotional posts... no one cares. Then there's the constant stream of negativity every time the smallest amount of adversity is introduced. And keep in mind, this isn't the Chiefs and each game is literally 10 times less important than an NFL game in a highly random sport where the best teams barely win 60% of their games.

I dunno, they've provided better entertainment in the past 3 years than the Chiefs have in 30... I sit back and enjoy almost every game with zero stress, it's just weird that some come off as exactly the opposite.

I don't know what to tell you. People use the lashing out negativity as a defense against the potential anger of a loss. Sometimes getting what you "expect," even if an undesirable outcome, is better than being hurt by unexpected outcomes because you are mentally prepared for it.

I was about to say I can't believe Bartolo Colon is shutting down the Dodgers, but they just scored a 3 spot to take the lead against the Twins.

Wrong.

More entertainment than the Chiefs have in 50 years.

Is there one person on this board that remembers the 1969 Kansas City Chiefs?
