The NFL has some creepy crap that makes no sense. How can the NFL be a not-for-profit institution when that is all they care about? How come it gets an antitrust exemption?

Management cannot control shitty QB play and turnovers. That is how a team loses 14 games.

Yes but who drafted or brought in that shitty QB? Who built that team?

Big surprise.
People in modern society would rather stay at home and watch (insert anything that used to be done IRL) on TV than to get out and experience life. I can't believe people actually prefer sitting on their ass and watching the game on TV than experiencing the game first hand. I think games are overpriced... but the market is what the market is. I don't think watching games on TV is anything remotely close to being there in person, but it doesn't surprise me that the generation raised by TV sets would overwhelmingly feel this way. |

If the Chiefs were a perennial winner and post season threat, this wouldn't even be an issue here. I rarely hear Patriots fans bitching about the price of their tickets to the point of not wanting to go to games. I'm sure they DO bitch about it, but to those fans it's worth spending 150 bucks a ticket for nosebleed seats when they know their team is always in the race to win it all.
I would not shame ANY fan of the Chiefs for not wanting to buy fool's gold year after year just to watch them go belly up, yet again. Plus, NFL games aren't just expensive, they're time consuming. Your entire Sunday when you go to a game a accounted for, and even a good chunk of your Saturday if the plan is to get a proper tailgate going. If you hang at home, you don't get the experience, but you get a chunk of your weekend back. But it's cool if the NFL wants to punish the average fan for not wanting to support a sub par team? Yeah, sure. |

I don't want to sit at home and watch every weekend. I'd buy season tickets in a heartbeat if it was worth the time and money.... but, watching at home clearly makes the most sense, especially when the best part of going to Arrowhead is usually tailgating.

What I won't do is drive 3 hours (in good weather) plus pay for parking and tickets, take two days off of work (I don't get off until 7:30 AM), all after watching my team completely $#it their pants in both the draft and the offseason and HOPE one of the 6 games they win all year will be the one I go to. **** that. That time is over...

I'm still hoping that DirecTV will someday offer team passes to Sunday Ticket. All I want is just the Chiefs games....let me buy just those.
