ZOMG TEH CHEEFS WILL NEVAR WIN ANOTHER GAME EVER IN HISTORY. /certain posters Actually, the game sucked, but its just a stupid football game. It sucks while it is happening, but once the game is over I stop thinking about it. Quote:

Yeah, after 43 years of this kind of crap, I don't let the Chiefs dictate my life anymore. It took about 40 years, but thanks to Herm, I will enjoy the good times, but not going to let the bad times get me down.
Hopefully they make watching the game next week an enjoyable experience. |

I'm still gonna have trouble sleeping on Saturday night.
I'll be up early on Sunday morning trying to find something to do to pass the time. By Noon I'll be right there in front of the telly excited to see this team line it up again. It's a sickness. I LOVE this team though. No matter what. But shit needs to change or heads will roll. I don't wanna see another game like that this season. Losing is one thing. Being humiliated in your own stadium though? Yeah...no.

Don't take this as me being a smartass because that's not what I'm trying to do... at all.
I believe a lot of people would be much better served if they could find a way to stop letting a game have such a negative affect on them. You can't control it. It doesn't make you a loser if your team loses. It's not worth letting it get to you. Of course it's disappointing when your favorite team loses... I've been a KC sports fan for 42 years... I get it... and I used to get mad and break things when the Chiefs would blow a game or look bad on national tv. It embarassed me and I took it out on inanimate objects and the people around me. I finally realized my own behavior was the embarassing thing and the outcome of a game doesn't make my family of friends think less of me, or cause me any kind of hardship. Whether you go to the extremes I did or not, it's just not worth letting it ruin your day. The sun still shines, beer still tastes good and there's always another game. The day I let go of it was one of the most liberating days of my life. Now I can watch a game and cheer the good things and often literally laugh at the bad. It's entertainment again for me and I enjoy that. Just my suggestion. Go Chiefs/Royals/Jayhawks.

A few years ago, I would have been like you and wouldn't have been able to watch any football the rest of the day.
Today, I couldn't wait to get home to hopefully watch some good games. EDIT: Good post Beer Me. That was me a few years ago. If the Chiefs lost on Sunday, I was ruined for days. Posted via Mobile Device |

Hey, I'm sure the conversation in the Chiefs business office this morning went something like this:
Worker 1: "Shit, we got our ass handed to us 41-7 on opening day!" Worker 2: "Yeah, but we just parked 10,000 cars at $27 a pop, that's $270,000 just for freaking PARKING A CAR." Worker 1 and 2: "HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!" |

I had a good time at my tailgate with family and friends and I did my share of getting loud when it was called for. Inasmuch as I don't get to play in the games, I feel that I've done about all I can do.
It used to really chap my ass when they would play like they did yesterday and it would pretty much ruin my day (and sometimes week). I don't know if it's becuase I've gotten older or what but I've finally come to realize that it really isn't that big of a deal. |

Perhaps the day will come when I shrug off losses like the one I witnessed yesterday.
Seems a LONG way off though. I can't recall the last time I was so disgusted with this team. But...I'm ready to see how this group responds.

Thats how I am now. I got to check my fantasy stuff, do some work in the garden, watch the Chargers game (I have Phyllis as my fantasy QB), and make a killer bbq dinner. AND, got to have a few inexpensive beers at home all the while. I think they will be better as the season progresses, but I'm not gonna hold my breath. Too many other great things to do this time of year if the Chiefs game is a dog

I didn't get too worked up during the game. More like watched it in amazement. And I am looking forward to seeing the game next Sunday.
One thing that did go through my mind during the game yesterday was that we are going to have more home game blackouts this season. And that makes me sad. |

Here's what happened chiefs planet. You got your ass handed to you by a better team. You got out played, out nastied, out coached and out hustled by the team y'all wrote off a week ago today when I first came here to talk some football with your fans and in return got trash talked, cussed at and downright abused by a bunch of foul mouth ignorant fools who couldn't find it in their hearts to have a sensible conversation with a Bills fan. Should be wishing you the best of luck for the rest of the season, but after two tries at being friendly the only thing I wish for you is no serious injuries the rest of the way. Have fun in the basement.

I think i feel the worst for you longtime season ticket holders and guys who actually pay good money to go out there all the time. KC Fans deserve better than what they have gotten the past 40 years.
