He has hired Brett Veach who is ultimately responsible for finding the greatest treasure in Chiefs history and that is Patty Mahomes. Clark has not been afraid to spend money either.

Wait - I thought we were supposed to hate rich people these days?

He puts the right people in place to do their job and if it’s clearly not working out, he’s not afraid to bring the nuthooks. Has he been perfect? No, but over the last ten years or so he’s grown into it and we’ve seen the team become a well run organization. It’s easy to forget what an AIDS tire fire the organization was in the Peterson to Pioli era. On some level, Veach has to know if he doesn’t get it done, he’s outta there.

Never admitted it in my thread but meeting Clark before the Seahog game really just put me in a daze.
Owner of my favorite sports team since ‘82.

If it's windy and cold we will need a stand in but CHunt has "earned" the right to beat the drum.

I've talked to him several times. That's simply not true, at least in my experience.

He's very approachable.

The "cheap" narrative has been debunked many, many times.

The new thing, and the one that is harder to argue against, is that he lives in Dallas and is an absentee owner that cares more about soccer.

For me, I'm fine with it. I would rather have Clark Hunt than Jerry Jones any day. But when the team isn't winning, especially over such a long period of time, people look for places to point fingers.

Your choice to be a fan. LOL

I've never cared one way or another about the Clarks, but I'm glad he used to buy tickets back when the chiefs were bad so that we could still see the games on TV

I hate to disagree with you but Clark Hunt deserves a kick in his balls for never putting a complete team on the field. I have had tickets for 27 seasons and I can't tell you how frustrated I have been because of all of the losing. The 90's were great, Carl Peterson did all he could with what he had. Worn out locker rooms, crappy equipment didn't deter him from putting together some great teams. The shot they had with Trent Green lasted 2 seasons.

We were always 'one player away' and 'we will get them next year' was heard over and over. How about "we play for CHAMPIONSHIPS" every year from Clark Hunt. You might be younger and haven't invested $30K to watch games a Arrowhead so you might not feel this way, but I am fed up. I am sick of watching the playoffs end with a thump.

That being said ...

Go Chiefs!

Our white supremacist owner is the biggest hindrance to a Mahomes dynasty. He hates players with an edge like Burfict, Suh, Talib. Its why he got rid of Peters and Kareem Hunt.

I hope he gets Jerry Richardson'ed so team can get a non-racist owner.

He can bang the drum. He owns it...

Now just go get me a SB win...
