Events in your life since last Chiefs playoff win
 

Some in the organization, media and fans question the loyalty of a fan who has become jaded or mocks the team after a dismal 0-3 start to the season.


To put into perspective the reasons, even the most ardent, die hard fans have become jaded and can even find jokes in the start to this season....List a timeline of events in your life since the last Chiefs playoff win.

Feel free to include life events, inventions, whatever item you feel represents the reasons we as fans should expect more out of ownership of this team, and why they owe us more....

We landed on the moon?

I was in 2nd grade the last time the Chiefs won a playoff game.

Moved to SF, moved to LA, got a career, got some hobbies, got fatter, got skinnier, got fatter... (repeats for a long time).

Now I'm depressed, thanks OP.

just a thought.........but we're at about that point where Zubaz pants became popular, then became out of style.......and now on the cusp of being popular again??

Crap:banghead:

I live in the same house and work for the same company. How sad is that?

Pretty much every event in my life other than my birth, learning to walk, potty training, and my first day of school.

Everything I did in my life after sixth grade. I guess the first major milestone was beating off.

In 1993 I was in college.
Since the last Chiefs playoff win my timeline includes the following
1. 3 years of college to completion
2. A puppy became a dog, lived and died of old age and sickness
3. 3 relationships over 1 year came and went
4. entered the workforce in my job market, and have developed a relatively succesful 15 year career.
5. Have purchased and remodeled 3 homes
6. Have buried at least 10 friends and family
7. Got another puppy, who became a dog, and is now dead
8.Cell phones were in a bag, in the car, and now......
9. Met a girl, courted, and dated for 3 years
10. Married the princess
11. witnessed the birth of 3 children, have been through their sicknesses, teething, and now 1 is even losing teeth and riding a bike
12. Started a business, built it up to a successful level
13. purchased a lot, built a cabin
14. learned about bow hunting and since the last win, became a seasoned hunter with a thousand hours in a tree waiting on a playoff win.
15. Terrorists attacked our country, knocked down buildings, we've fought a decade of war, my brother has joined the army, airborne and done multiple tours of service.....and he wasn't in Jr High yet for the last Chiefs playoff win.



I'm starting to wonder if I'm a football cubs fan, who may live my entire life, become a grandfather and die without a whiff at a championship. It's bad enough, I've just created a thread which would normally be smack by an opposing fan.


These are some of the reasons this fan doesn't care if the current players have Tshirts that "can't hear the hate". I sure as hell wish the owner would hear it while sitting on $30mil in cap space.

This was likely your cell phone, if you were even a cell owner in 1993, to call your friend to tell them about the most recent Chiefs playoff win.

My youngest son was born 2 years after that.

He's now a Junior in high school.

Most of the cars purchased in 1993, are no longer on the road.

This. I am a sucker, I've shelled out for tickets to a team who hasn't won a playoff game since I was in Kindergarten.

I was 12.

I'm now 30.

I really don't know where to start with that one....

Biggest things:

Got Married
Had my first child (daughter)
Moved to Michigan to be closer to the wifes family
Changed careers
My son was born
Bunch of stuff with the family
Daughter graduated high school and is now enrolled in college.
Son is a sophomore in high school.
Started my own business.

You forgot to mention you could still cum back in 1994 (no homo)

If you were to post on the internet about the big playoff win, you'd be one of the few people actually doing it.....and it would probably have been on a pc, running the latest greatest technology....WIN NT

I was 13. That's sad.

I don't know how many postseason victories that would add up to for all other teams I follow, but it's a decent number of championships.

I went to kindergarten and some other things.

Cell phones were only for rich people and stock brokers in the movies when the Chiefs last won a playoff game. They were large and came with a battery pack you could carry on your back. :D

Home computers were for playing solitaire and other games when the Chiefs last won a playoff game.

I could still buy music on a cassette tape when the Chiefs last won a playoff game.

AutoCAD was new and scary when the Chiefs last won a playoff game.

Gas was 99 cents when the Chiefs last won a playoff game. :eek:

sec

My grandkids are the same age now as my kids were then. Nuff said

That's a very odd suggestion, and a little creepy that you're thinking about my wedding tackle long jimp.


That said, a few tugs in the right places from your mother, and I could probably throw 2oz over the top of a 1993 Ford, the top selling truck the year of the last playoff win without getting more than a drop or two on the top. But then again, I'm shooting a potato gun and you're dumping a thimble onto a photo of someone in osh kosh bigosh.

Michael Jackson turned White, then died.

1. I turned two
2. Kicked Diapers to the curb
3. Started Preschool
4. Kicked Preschool to the curb
5. Started Kindergarten
6. Became a Chiefs Fan (1998) to escape from the constant pressure of my daily life.
7. Started first grade, and have since turned to my daily life to escape the reality of being a Chiefs fan.
8. The rest is history.

My alma mater went from being 0-11 during my tenure, to multiple games in the DII national championship.


Andrew Luck likely was in a diaper and couldn't ride a tricycle yet, during the last Chiefs playoff win.

I lived in Wichita then, and my youngest daughter was a HS gymnast at North, and doing very well. Balance Beam was her best event.

Now, her oldest son, my eldest grandson, is a senior in ****ING HS!
Dammit Carl!

My eldest daughter, was a freshman at WSU. Now she has had her PHD for several years, and is a senior scientist at a major pharmaceutical company.
Dammit Carl!

I know this is not the exact subject of the OP, but my Grandson is now the same age I was when the Chiefs went to SBI, and he is but two years younger than I was when they won it.

First Job
got drivers license
Bought first car
graduated HS
Joined Military

Do you know how much the map of Africa has changed since 1993?

Holy crap.....


Billay lovelayce, stop thinking about my poke pipe. It's even stranger knowing you're sitting at in your chair trying to dislocate your jaw like a python...wondering if you could.

The branch dividians were still alive and well in Waco Texas.....You'd never have heard of Rodney King, OJ Simpson was still a great RB and a movie star.

Sent from my phone

You can now sent this message to a message board which doesn't exist for 9 years following last playoff win....wireless from the phone that now fits in your pocket and lets you download apps while video capturing your lady friend flipping the bean while watching a video on that phone.



Do you know how long it would have taken to download and view a 2.5mb digital photo of a naked woman in 1993?


I didn't see my first digital naked lady on a computer until 1996....3 years after the last Chiefs playoff win.

Virginity

High School

Purchased a Bowling Alley

At the rate we are going, I might add a few more kids and retirement to the list in a few decades.

This Carl Peterson guy is doing a pretty good job.....He could still make this 5 year plan work!

Fifty World Wide Web servers are known to exist as of January 1993.

:doh!:

OMG Y2K IS GOING TO TAKE DOWN THE WORLD!!!!


Almost 12 years ago.

A junior in HS has never seen a Chiefs' playoff win.



99% of all pets would have lived and died since the last playoff win.

The jury was still out on Rick Mirer.

But he looks just like Joe Montana!

Natrone Means needs more carries.

Yikes.

Final Fantasy III (US)

Donkey Kong Country

Super Metroid


They were all release in 1994........

Greg Hill running the ball behind Trezelle Jenkins should put this team OVER THE TOP!

Got married. Had two kids. Moved to MN. Moved back to KC. Now I have a daughter in junior high. It has been a long, long time.

Got out of the military. Got back in after getting married and getting her pregnant. Gained 40 pounds and have spent 14 years after the military in customer service. Have had 3 long term jobs in that time. Arthritis, glasses, carpal tunnel, grey hair. The years have not been kind.

Off topic rant but why do people say you aren't a true fan if you criticize a professional sports organization and team?

Last time I check these guys get paid...and paid to compete and try to win. If shit isn't going well, things should be changed. I know if I didn't perform at my job, I would be fired or at the very least, get criticized from a superior.

Anyway, I was born into being a Chiefs fan as my dad was born in KC and grew up there. I was 8 the last time the Chiefs won a playoff game and I had just received a Joe Montana poster that said, "Hail to the Chief." I have since come to realize that my father was born in town with a sports curse that goes unnoticed.

95% of my career has taken place
got married
had a daughter who is now 15
got divorced after nearly 12 years of marriage
killed a guy

The Carolina Panthers didnt even exist until 2 years after our last playoff win. They are on their 3rd Franchise QB, Made it to an NFC championship game and a Super Bowl all before we won a another playoff game.

I wish I'd thought of it.:)

:facepalm:

The last time the Chiefs won a playoff game "Whoomp There It Is" was the #1 song on the radio, and Chevy Chase had a talk show.

The Houston Oilers traded Warren Moon, sucked the next season, drafted Steve McNair, moved to Tennessee, went to the Super Bowl, and then McNair died.

I just graduated from K-State a few months ago & sure as hell don't remember the last playoff win, seeing as how I was like 3 or 4 years old when it happened. Needless to say, plenty has happened in my life since then.

...


**** this team.

All 3 division rivals have been to the Super Bowl.
It's 4 if you include the Seahawks, (BTW - for some of you tykes who were still in diapers - the AFCW used to include the Seahawks).

5 if you include the Buccaneers, who for some bizarre reason switched conferences with the Seahawks after their first year and were in our division back in 1976.

I've banged a ton of chicks.

I remember riding home in the car from Bannister Mall when Joe Montana got hurt in the Bills playoff game and was listening to it on the radio. I was like 8-9 yrs old.

Say what?

I did create a thread on the Orangemane (back when I still posted there) called something like "Can You Find Pics From Around The Last Time The Chiefs Won A Superbowl?" It was pretty successful.

My god. It really has been a long time.

That actually makes me laugh, though I feel guilty about it.

Magic Johnson had HIV and then got cured

LMAO

Wow. It's even more depressing when you put it like that.

Let's see...in no particular order...

graduated high school
graduated college
got a good job out of college
bought a new car
met my future wife
asked her to marry me
she said yes lol
got married
moved from KC to AZ

Ugh. Why must you hurt me Chiefs?! Thanks a lot Iowanian!!!

now this is just a low blow.

The Chiefs haven't won a playoff game the entire time my son has been alive. He graduates from high school next May.

I'm close. My oldest was born 04/93.
