I have young children that don't care right now, so that it swaying my opinion. When they get older and start watching my opinion will change.

Nope. No kids. I can definitely see that making an impact when that time comes. Especially early on.

I got into football heavily when I was about 5 or 6. At that age and from there on I was pretty much locked into anything and everything football. I remember my dad watching the game, and I'd run to my Sega Genesis and try to recreate the Elvis Grbac 504 yard passing game vs the Raiders.


Maybe once I do have a kid it'll be different, but it'll be different because I have a new real life responsibility which makes all the sense in the world.

But I've never once thought about holding any ill will towards my dad for wanting to watch every Chiefs game. That's the stuff that only helped me love it more.
