Chiefs Events in your life since last Chiefs playoff win - Page 10

**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 was going to list events from my personal life, since I've graduated from college, gotten married, divorced, and married again, and seen the birth of not 1 but 2 children.

However, I thought using an event from my work life was more appropriate.

The last time the Chiefs won a playoff game, the Interweb looked like THIS:

Please GFY

Yup. I have no idea what you're talking about. I wasn't using computers when the internet looked like this. Too young.

A LOT of shit's happened since we last won a playoff game.
Question is...what ELSE will happen before we win another one?

Garcia Bronco · 01-23-2012, 10:18 AM

If you are tired of a franchise with little or no results; you can join the Broncos.

This probably isn't the thread to discuss the long, agonizing seven months since a Boston sports team last brought home a championship, is it?

(sorry, couldn't resist)

R8ers · 01-24-2012, 01:25 AM

Damn what a great thread

KCtotheSB · 01-24-2012, 02:03 AM

I remember sitting on my mom's couch crying (I was 8) when the Oilers went up 10-0 in the first half. She sat next to me and reassured me that the Chiefs would come back and win. Sure enough, they did. Since then I've:

- been through two cars
- joined the military
- been overseas six times
- got married
- am in the midst of having my first kid

Hard to ****ing imagine that a team has left Houston, came BACK and won a playoff game before these shitheads. If my first kid turns 8 and the Chiefs finally squirm to winning a playoff game, I'm going to spoil the next 20 years for him.

...I hate this goddamn team sometimes. Thankfully I've been able to experience at least one championship experience with the Penguins in 2009.

That's seriously how people back there like JD think. Oh god we wont beat the Giants. Brady sucks. Brady chokes. Theo and Tito sucked. No appreciation of anything. You would think the Patriots lost on Sunday.

Ahem:

My son was born a year later.
My band broke up for the first time
My band reunited many times and finally we've stuck together since 2005.
I started hunting deer in the Fall of 1997.
Both my kids have now graduated High School.
I have gained and lost so much weight it probably equals a whole other person
I changed careers twice and jobs 4 times.
I'm still married to my wife...who became a Donkey fan out of spite and it stuck.

Hence my username.

**Gonzo** · 01-24-2012, 06:52 AM

Why do we do it?
It's that glimmer of hope that hits us all each fall. Hope that a pitiful franchise that is in such turmoil may actually piece something together.
We see teams like the Texans, Bengals, Saints and Colts put it together and win a playoff game or even a championship and we say, "why not us?" Those teams were all once so pitiful yet they eventually got it pieced together. The NFL is a league that at any given time, will produce that cinderella story. The most awful teams in the league eventually make a run. Why can't we?
Well, that's why we do it. We're idiots.

Coach Self would be like, “Did everyone make curfew last night? If you didn’t make curfew, raise your hand.” All of us that broke curfew kept our hands down — except B-Rush. He’d raise his hand and tell on himself. Coach Self would ask him why he didn’t make curfew and he’d say, “Because the club was crackin’!” Everyone would laugh and he’d make B-Rush run a little bit.
