Yes and no.

I think a lot of fans were (relatively) patient with the post Vermeil era. It was a very old team that had to be torn down and rebuilt. And while fans weren't happy with the losses or Herm's coaching, I think a lot of them recognized that it was a team that was devoid of talent due to that demolition job.

The problem now is they tore it down and built the foundation, and now all the bricks and lumber are lying around rotting while the general contractor trips over his own dick.

I agree. Had Herm and Carl gotten another year, then I would be more inclined to agree with him. As it was, they were ran out of town with pitchforks. I won't even bump the Carl is fired thread for proof. Everyone should remember.

Seriously, and be honest with yourself, if not out loud, looking back right now, do you wish they'd had just 1 more year to see what they could do with the team? Would we have drafted that 1st round QB? If they had 1 more year, do you think they would've been successful? What would be different about this team, and who would be running it if Clark had given them just one more year?

Those questions are for everyone, not just Dave. I'm just curious. I'm trying to get my finger on the pulse of Chiefs fans. ;)

The Blackout event will be when the SOC movement shows its cards. If the turnout is a paltry one, then Hunt and company will effectively win the war; the churlish banner-fliers will be "proven" to be nothing more than a "few" angry fans...

However, if the stadium is truly blacked out...change be a coming because the SOC movement will be in full throat.

P.S.: **** Pioli.

Deez- what is your guess that will happen? I am not close enough to the noise to have an opinion.

For the Blackout to be a success, the media is going to have to champion it, too. 810, for example, is going to need to come into the fold. Perhaps The Star.

Just a guess: I don't believe the SOC sites are pervasive enough to carry the day. I might be very wrong about this, though.
