Some Of You May Have Your Wish Come True... - Page 2

I'm taking a minute out from visiting with the family here in KC to tell you Planeteers, your wish may come true:

For all of you who wanted some of us to stop going to the games, stop buying tickets, and simply put- to stop supporting the Chiefs, so we could send a message to Lamar in the hopes to mitigate a Peterson firing- Well, I sat around chatting with my dad on the eve of Thanksgiving. Of course, it was only natural we would talk about the Chiefs as we have been all our lives.

As some of you already know, my father has been a season ticket holder ever since the Texans moved to KC in the sixties. It is because of his undying devotion and love for the team that I too became a resounding Chiefs fan as a child.

We talked and talked, and then he dropped the bomb- He indicated he was seriously thinking of dropping his season tickets. He's had it. He simply cannot put up with the antics anymore and is through spending the money on them, only to be disappointed year after year. My heart dropped. I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

He said he'd been furious with the way CP has handled things in the past few years and is profoundly irked by the sudden display of underachievement by the players. My father, a lifelong Chiefs fan, is now considering giving up the tickets. This may not be shocking to you, but it is to us.

So, CP, I hope you're reading this sometime in the future. I hope you're reading this now. This is what has become of the fans in KC. Take a walk. Please. Just pack up your things and get out of Arrowhead. Trust me, we're better off without you. I'm serious, CP- get out! I thought I would never see the day where my father would decide to give up his Chiefs tickets. They were like a child to him, and he would never give up on his children. But, he is now...

I can't blame the coaches or the players. I honestly believe they try their best. I believe they work very hard, day in, and day out to be the best football team in the nation. I can't blame you guys, therefore, I have to put blame somewhere else- and it's going to CP. So, CP, just so you know- I'm not asking you to leave, I'm telling you to. There are no more chances. We have too many good players. And quite a few of them are getting up there in age. They don't have but maybe a year or two remaining before they have to leave the field for good. Get out of here now....let us worry about this team. My father is seriously thinking of NOT renewing his season tickets for the first time in his Chief life- it's not because of the players, or the coaches, or the stadium- it's because of the damage you have done.

So, I'm telling you now- you're free to go ***** up some other team, but you ain't touching ours- any more....

Is this the part where you shoot him in the head?

That is most likely true, and less a return to the 70s and 80s where they only sold like 20.000 tickets a year there will not be much change. IMO Hunt is happy with a competive team and will not pay for anything more, it is too bad as I have several friends who have been loyal to the Chiefs for years (I am in my 40s) so we are talking a long time, they deserve a ring (although I will always root my ass off for it not to happen!)
