I think the Chiefs are affecting my attitude

[RunKC]

Someone told me this today and I really thought about it for awhile. It genuinely pisses me off when we lose. It makes me even more pissed off when we get embarrassed at home.

Well, I guess my attitude in life is becoming the same as the attitude I have for the Chiefs. The "what's the point of trying (to cheer for the team)" attitude. Has this happened to any of you?

Well, for the rest of us (meaning anyone over 15k posts), it'd be great if our one escape from the toil and insufferable reality of our lives allowed us just 3.25 hours of escape and happiness...

I realized last week that I am more surprised when they win, than when they lose.

That is pathetic and sad. I expect my favorite team to lose...

Ditto. The Herm teams did me in. Used to hang on every play. Then I realized that 3+ hours have gone by and I am 3+ hours older and I have nothing done. Then I look outside and it is almost dark-(Live in minnesota-It gets dark early at 45 degrees N latitude)

Now I enjoy the game and let it go. Keep my expectations lower. I do school work and correct papers during the game because there is so much time between plays.

Relax-have beer/or whatever. Enjoy the game-even if the outcome is not good.

Monday mornings are awful for Chiefs fans....
