Easy to claim in retrospect, I know, but I was all in on Mahomes since watching him against OU. I was so very happy when we drafted him.
I'm 52. Never in my lifetime had the Chiefs hosted the AFC Championship Game. So I made a deal with my wife when we drafted football jesus that if the Chiefs ever host the AFC Championship, we would find a way for me to bring our boys.
We have now gone to all four AFC Championship games. We were there for Dee Ford's offside, the comeback against the titans, the meltdown in the second half against Cincy. As you can guess, it's been a financial burden, necessitating deep cuts to our budget elsewhere. But we've made it work.
I don't know how my boys will view me when they reach adulthood. I've done the best I can. But I know they will always remember going to those four games to watch magic happen. Now we need one for the thumb. Screw atlanta. Go bungles!
