think about it this way

if you didn't watch the football games
if you didn't watch ESPN
If you didn't live in Kansas City

if you only looked at the scores
if you only looked that bottom line profit business statement.

you wouldn't be in near the rush to make any changes


the Chiefs are still showing 20-30 million dollars in profit each year.



if you received a check for 30 million each year would you be ready to make any changes?
If the Hunts were truely savvy businessmen, they would obviously be aware of opportunity cost. We have a great and loyal fanbase, but as with every business venture, there is opportunity for improvement. I don't think the Hunts are niaive enough to think that putting a winning program out there wouldn't dramatically improve profitability. You put San Deigo's team in this market, and it would yeild much higher profits than would our 12 game skid would.

Moreover, if the Hunts were indeed savvy businessmen, they would appreciate the $30M check yearly, but any good businessman would need at least reasonable assurance that the profit stream was sustainable. In conjunction with that, I don't think any decent businessman buries his head in the sand about the factors affecting his precious profitability.

The arguement that the Hunts are bad owners because they value business more than winning is valid, but IMO it does not apply to keeping Herman ****ing Edwards on staff.
