Sporting Kansas City are chokers

heh, gotta love it when the "I told ya So's" come out to rub it in.


Yea, they didnt win the title, but the important thing is they are winners and have built a clear trust and solid relationship with their fanbase.

Something Royals and Chiefs fans like me can only dream about........

I'm not a "soccer hater" but that's a BS statement.

Winning titles IS the important thing. Unless you're saying it's OK to just get to the playoffs.

Well, SKC DID win a title this year and it was one they'd set as a top priority in order to get into CONCACAF next year. So while they did not win the MLS title or both titles they were champions of an important tournament this year.

More importantly, they sold out all but one game (early March really cold) and they won the conference during regular season play again for the second year in a row.

While they fell short again of the MLS title, their trajectory is upward and they can no way hang their heads for a bad season. They picked a terrible time to have a horrible game on Sunday but that can't erase all the goals they set and achieved. They aren't taking baby steps towards meeting their goals, they are taking giant leaps.

Of course winning a title is the most important thing. Your right.

But would you rather have a loser every year, (like the Royals for 20 years and the Chiefs since 2007) or a team that competes in the playoffs every year?

That wasn't the basis of your statement with which I disagreed. I'm not trying to argue or insult you (not saying you are either). Of course one would rather be one of the top teams in the league year in and year out, but without championships it really doesn't matter much IMO, much like the Chiefs in 2010 when they won the AFC West.
