Chiefs Events in your life since last Chiefs playoff win - Page 12

**Iowanian** · 09-29-2011, 02:15 PM

Some in the organization, media and fans question the loyalty of a fan who has become jaded or mocks the team after a dismal 0-3 start to the season.

To put into perspective the reasons, even the most ardent, die hard fans have become jaded and can even find jokes in the start to this season....List a timeline of events in your life since the last Chiefs playoff win.

Feel free to include life events, inventions, whatever item you feel represents the reasons we as fans should expect more out of ownership of this team, and why they owe us more....

I know this is not the exact subject of the OP, but my Grandson is now the same age I was when the Chiefs went to SBI, and he is but two years younger than I was when they won it.

Update, my grandson has now graduated HS, and is the same age I was when the Chiefs were last in the SB.

Arrested. Convicted. Released. Probation completed. Tumor removed from head. Need a playoff win in a bad way.

Fun times.

R8ers · 10-03-2012, 08:46 AM

Since the last playoff win for the chiefs January 14, 1994

I got married in 1995 for the second time I was 29 years old (I am now 46)
and 07/15/96 We had a beautiful daughter together (she is now 16 years old)

htismaqe · 10-03-2012, 09:50 AM

Graduated from college. Married. Divorced. Married again. 2 kids.

The only thing I haven't done yet is died.

memyselfI · 10-03-2012, 11:06 AM

Well my then two year old is now in his third year of college. The baby I had in 1996 is now almost 17 and a jr. in high school. I've been through 4 cars. Moved twice. Had four or five different jobs. Turned forty now nearing 50.

Wow, that is depressing. What is even worse is if you apply the same question to the KC Royals.

It's been so long since the Chiefs won a playoff game, the Mayan's ended the world and rebooted the odometer on their calendar.

That's right....the Mayan Calendar ran out of time before the Chiefs won another playoff game.

Mosbonian · 12-27-2012, 03:27 PM

I'm guessing most of the guys on here who are now considered "chrome domes" actually still had their original hair the last time the Chiefs won a playoff game.

And for some, what was there was cut in a mullet.

**The Bad Guy** · 12-27-2012, 03:31 PM

Graduated Middle School, High School, College, Got my Masters, switched professions twice, met my wife, got engaged, married moved to Philly, moved back to my hometown, moved to Virginia, moved back to my hometown, had a kid, built a house.

Mosbonian · 12-27-2012, 04:10 PM

To get specific....

My son was born just before the last playoff win....since then I:

had a daughter
moved from KC to Greenwood, SC to Lexington SC, to Mooresville, NC to Columbia MO, to Georgetown KY to Indianapolis IN.
Left one of the best jobs I ever had to take a job that lasted 2 1/2 years before the company folded (got out before it folded), got another job that lasted 1 year before the company was sold and then folded into the parent, then got another job that lasted for 18 months before the company was sold to it's competitor, then got another job to help with a turnaround on a textile company that lasted 2 1/2 years before it folded (got out before it folded) then got a job with a small appliance manufacturer that lasted 3 1/2 years before it was sold to an investment firm that merged it with another of the competitors (got out before that happened), got a job with a uniform company that lasted 4 1/2 years before being "down-sized" , and then got my present job....which I hope lasts till I can retire (or the Chiefs win a Super Bowl, whichever comes first)

My son graduated from HS 2 years ago....and my daughter is a junior.

I actually needed the following the last time the Chiefs won a playoff game:

A comb
A land line
A 2400 baud modem

Edit: since my the last playoff win I have lost my Father-in-Law, my Mother, my Father, and 2 of my best friends in my Industry
