I have Mark Donovan's email address around here somewhere. Want me to forward it to him?

Have him make an account. Or ask Alex's wide to borrow her password. That way he can lurk and report back. I'm sure Clark will think the Sat-phone is flaky when Mark tells him the natives are restless.

Or they can ask the players what's going on at the 'ol CP, I've heard some of them have accounts here and at AhP.

But yes, there's a lot to digest, and Clark needs to come out from under his desk, take the diaper off, and be ready to tell Goodell to go **** himself, he wants the head of officiating to explain all the calls (made and not made) or be fired.

"Watching the Kansas City Chiefs has affected me negatively in the following ways......."


I no longer believe that the KC Chiefs nor the NFL are a legit sporting competition and it breaks my heart because I once loved this game with all my heart.In my 30+ years as a fan and a gambler I have seen way too many coincidences and will never be that full of faith trusting fan again.

I no longer ask for KC Chiefs clothes or collectibles for my themed game room,in fact I'm embarrassed now to have invested so much time and money in something I've lost faith in.

Mostly though I have regrets that I have missed out on family events and time because the game(s) were top priority in my life.

Well said. And what sucks is that is we didn't have the Hunts as our owners, maybe we'd have a Kraft'esque style owner and we'd have a QB playing in his 11th AFCCG.

I know I vent a lot at the Hunts, but they've earned the scorn. While most don't want a Jerry Jones, the Hunt's "too cool to complain and make a scene" has, I think, been central to the NFL focusing on the squeaky wheel/more aggressive owner's teams.

Now he and Lamar might be making the splash I so want in private meetings with the NFL's other leaders, but it's not orking well enough to have officials respect us enough to call holds equally.

I suppose they're nice people, they really are, but that might be the problem. We provide 80,000 screaming farmers on gameday, perhaps he can reciprocate as one screaming owner in the boardroom.

Not to turn this into a conspiracy theory thread but one theory I've seen has to do with the teamsters going on strike during the building of Arrowhead and Lamar sending Steadman to smooth things over to assure the completion of Arrowhead on time.I'll stop there as I'm sure you can figure out the rest.

Who the hell really knows,thankfully I don't expect anything from them anymore and so losses aren't much of a big deal.

I think we all "care", but many die-hards have just come to grips with the fact that even support-CPR isn't working and it's prolly time to, at a personal level, just call the ToD and let the coroner do his thing. They can go back and figure-out what went wrong (lying the while way), but the head has given up and the body might as well just come to grips with the head giving up.

But alas, there will be 80,000 screaming farmers out there next year. Hy-Vee may have to buy and sell the seats cheaper to keep them on TV, but I don't think there's any way the Chiefs PR machine (the only Tom Brady-like part of this team) will settle for "unsold seats" (even is 20,000 seats are empty on gameday).

I say all that to say this, Clark could do a lot to fix this, but the history is he won't. Obviously his laid-back ways didn't command the respect the team would need to have THAT hold go uncalled like so many others we've posted, and there's nothing that yelling can do to save that. What yelling and making some rather public statements might do is put the league on notice, and invigorate much of the fan base that's packing it in.

It's very hard to get a non-fighter, a PC person, to step into a bar fight, and that's essentially what we're doing here (have him verbally punch the Goodells and Krafts of the league in the jaw), and I just don't think he has it in him to defend the team's or city's honor. He's making $88M clean, and just doesn't like to fight. It's a terrible situation for KC fans and residents.

Cost over-runs from construction and labor strikes is what cost us the rolling roof system. The voters approved the sports complex with the understanding that a rolling roof would be part of the deal. It was sacrificed by the Jackson County Sports Authority because of cost over runs and because (allegedly) they didn't budget in enough for access roads and parking lots.

Family holidays suck because I have to hear about how the Chiefs suck & it puts me in such a bad mood that I'm not very social when Donk, Cowgirl, Seahag & Squeelers bandwagon fans give me a hard time.

I chose this team as a 7 year old & I haven't looked back since...how unfortunate for me.

I could have been a giants fan. Nope. I have to pick the freaking chiefs out in a state I couldn't find on the damn map as a 9 year old.

So I spent Sunday at one of the best tailgates I've been too. Hung out with a large group of my friends, drinking hot chocolate and peppermint schnapps and bloody marys. Had a great time all day, and even enjoyed the game even though we lost. All of that prevented me from getting angry Sunday night.
I spent all day yesterday pissed at the world. Ripping Alice Smith, and his apologists all over twitter and facebook. I'm still angry. I thought it would be different this year. Thought we could win Sunday. Even if we didn't, I came to the "its just a game" conclusion after blowing the 28 point lead the same day my best friend's father in law died. I thought the losses would be easier to swallow from that point forward.
NOPE.
I'm not even sure I want to watch football next Sunday. Which is weird, because I love championship Sunday. I think I'll get the bike out and ride if its as nice as they say it will be.
I'm just tired of never being able to get over the hump. Clark owes it to the fans, coaches, and other players on this team to get rid of Alice, and try to improve so we can get to the Super Bowl. I'm sure Clark needs to make some waves with the other owners, and the competition committee so we can start getting fairly called games.

I accept it for what it is: A helluva entertaining season in which they were a top 3 AFC team, just not a top 2.

It was a great season, i enjoyed it and those boys played their ass's off last night. Nothing but respect for all of them, and cheers to an entertaining 2016, and hopefully a better 2017.

This.

I'm happy we beat the Donkeys twice
I'm happy we beat the Raiders twice
I'm happy we beat the Chargers twice
I'm happy we drafted a REAL playmaker in Hill.
I'm happy we have Reid and dorsey.
I'm happy Berry had a monster year.
I'm happy about drafting Chris Jones
I'm happy we came a play away from getting to the Championship.
I'm also happy boar 499 died yesterday. He was an Asshole !

This. I mostly just watch and wait for a reaction from CP, with the hopes of emulating that emotion.
