My ideal Chiefs team has changed from being a "Super Bowl or Bust" season to a "Just put a ****ing competent team on the field on Sunday" season.
Now that I have a family with young children, they're my focus. I just don't want to feel like I've wasted three hours a week watching a shit hole team when I could have been out to breakfast or lunch with my family.

Thats what the last decade will do to you. Knowing that we literally had no chance to ever do any damage in the playoffs or hell, even beat good teams, just sucked.
I think I'll eventually get back to SB or bust, especially if they do start winning, but yeah, right now, just watching a game on Sunday thats competent would be enjoyable.
And to be honest, being such a SB or bust kid in the 90's and growing up with that type of Chiefs football being all I knew, just sucked the life out of me for a while.
It's weird how my sports "life" has become. Being a STL Cardinals fan, I'm pretty much where I was with the Chiefs in the 90's every year, plus they actually for the most part come through and actually WIN the big games and do things the right way. I'm pissed when they lose. Hell, they won a WS in 2011 and I was furious as hell and consider last year to be "unsuccessful" and they were a game away from BACK to BACK WS appearances.
But with the Chiefs? Yeah, just don't suck shit and I'll probably watch.
