BB is prob one of the biggest geniuses in history of NFL and you have to respect that. From draft picks to trades, his acquisitions are something fan dreams are made of.
I can't wait for the Chiefs to turn this team in to a contender year after year.
Congrats to you my friend, I salute you and raise my glass to you. |
I'm a few years younger than Amnorix, I think, but his post is pretty spot-on. First game I attended was early 80s. The Browns broke Grogan's leg, and there were few fans in the metal bowl that was Schaefer/Sullivan Stadium. Sportcasters dubbed Patriot/Colt meetings "toilet bowls". Dolphins dominated. First SB appearance was a magical run of three road wins (never done before '85), culminating in a historic beatdown by the Bears. Then the Bills dominated. Second SB appearance with the vaunted Tuna and golden boy Bledsoe a decade later, culminating in another painful loss and watching Brett ****ing Favre get a ring. From 1978 to 1985 they sucked. From 1986-1995 they sucked. From 1996-2000 they muddled along. Like Amnorix I'm enjoying the ride, because Belichick won't coach forever and Brady won't play forever.
