Fans Stop Booing. Become Supportive. Team Wins. Coincidence?

[memyselfI]

Anyone else wondering if it was more than a coincidence that when the Chiefs needed support and got it they found a way to win?

You DO know that they played the Panthers, right?

You do know that they are a 3 and 9 team, right?

Right but that long vaunted Arrowhead advantage did not include booing your team into the ground.

Go back to the soccer thread.

That is utter bullshit. The stadium yesterday was half full and extremely mild by Arrowhead standards. There have been several games this year that were louder.

Yes. But it was also a day that if the players were to phone in a game or play with no heart that would be the day. Instead they showed up on the field that has become quite hostile. Played better, not well, and when they started to screw up people just keep cheering and being supportive. They didn't sink into the abyss like they normally do. THEY FOUND A WAY TO WIN.

I don't think it was all about Belcher. I think it had as much to do with the crowd not turning on the team.

Right but there was no booing yesterday was there? There was a sense that the people showing up for that game were there to be supportive.

I don't think it had to do with the crowd.

The crowd will cheer when they stop sucking. They did this to themselves.

They aren't a bunch of 5 year old whiny ass suburban white kids. They are grown men that are paid to do a job whether they are booed or not.

Team is from KC.

Fans are excited about team from KC.

KC team sucks for a long time.

Fans still cheer and are excited.

Team takes suckage to new heights.

Team does nothing to address glaring and obvious problems.

Team craps on fanbase.

Fanbase gets pissed.

A great example of this is in action would be to look at how the ineffectiveness of NY teams over the past few years correlates with the continued hostility from their fans.
