Well.... change is here, and now people are bitching about what they were begging for last year.

No, we're NOT getting what we've been beggin for. Where have we gotten younger? QB - no, see Huard instead of Croyle. Kicker - no, he got two FG chances and then was cut. LB - no, see Donnie Edwards. CB - no, see Pat Surtain and Ty Law. We got younger on the OL because guys like Shields and Roaf retired because they got tired of waitng for Carl to put a defense on the field to support them.
Carl Peterson has had 19 years to build something in KC. 5+ of those years had 8 fuggin PRO BOWLERS on offense, and he still couldn't win an AFC Championship game. Now, the chickens have come home to roost, and all of his pathetic drafts and FA acquisitions have put this team in a terrible position, stocked with very little young talent - and dismal prospects for the future, period.
He's created a situation that won't be fixed in one or two seasons, yet he continues to try and win 7-9 games, at the expense of possibly building a winner for the future, which is what most of us want. He does it to persuade the "real fans"/lemmings, foolish enough and unable to see through his ruse, to continue to buy his shitty product so he can keep his job for another year or two.
That's not what I want, and Clark needs to wake up before he runs his dad's franchise right over the cliff.
