The Fine Line Between Sports and Life
Forgive me for another post-mortem thread, and ignore/neg rep me if it pisses you off.

I was so disturbed thinking about this today...how connected my fandom of the Chiefs is to my life. I realized this afternoon that I need to find a way...to try to find a way...to not care so much.

Honest to God I have felt physically sick from the moment we lost until this point, and probably for awhile longer. All from a football game? A game where I know nobody and don't even play?

I guess I feel like the battered spouse who keeps getting kicked in the stomach and yet comes back, dressed in red, waiting for my team to finally love me back.

Perspective, man. I could use some.

Just rewatch Cassel games from last season a few more times, it should help numb you a bit...

Perspective?

This is year one of a brand new regime, and despite a very clear lack of talent in the secondary, they went to the playoffs.

It always sucks. I hate it as much as you... but the direction of the team from 12 months ago is on a very different trajectory than the one now.

No excuses, but there really IS next year to look forward to.

I hear ya. I've only been a Chiefs fan for goin on 4 years and I've already invested so much time and money into this team. That loss in person yesterday was the most gut wrenching, heart breaking loss I've experienced. I've been in such a funk since the game. It's weird I can't shake this feeling.

I think sports teaches you a lot about life, honestly.

I think that's why I appreciate it so much. But it's always, always going to be something fun for me.

The day rooting for the Chiefs causes more pain than it creates pleasure, is the day I quit them.

It helped that I didn't watch the other NFL games this weekend. Needed the break after that heartbreaker. All good next weekend though. Maybe I'm used to the effed up finishes after 43 years.

You guys went from the first pick in the Draft to 11-5, yes the playoff game was an absolute disaster but the fact that there was a playoff game at all is a minor miracle.

Perspective, my friend?

Imagine this - you've been a fan of this team since you were a little boy, 40+ years and counting...Imagine that every loss like this hurts just as much as it ever has, that a curse that started on Christmas day 1971 will never be lifted...

Imagine how much that you would like to be able to walk away from this damn team sometimes, but find yourself completely unable to.

Yeah, I got a lifetime full of perspective for you...

some ain't made it back yet.

(and I just talking about this board...)

Yeah I should add that I'm now over 40 and while I'm not as long in tooth as some of you guys, I've experienced most of the heartbreak in the modern era of being a Chiefs fan.

Intellectually I get it. It just hurts and I'm mad that a football game can do that to me.

Perspective? I sat next to an old timer at the Cincy game that has been a Season Seat Holder since day 1. Season Seat holder #102. That man has seen a lot of losing in his years. He walked out of that game today just as pissed off/frustrated and saddened as I did Saturday from the Indy game. He will be back and so will I. But man this hurts right now.

I was sick, but I always remind myself that it's a game.

I know it's cliche, but it works.
