Great listen - long suffering Chiefs fan lets it all go (https://chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=328955)

"...what the heck just happened? Go ask the 24-0 Texans, or the 17-7 Titans, or the 20-10 49ers... we just handed each one of then am old-style Chiefs "torture chamber" loss. We are the team that hands that garbage out now, after 50 years of being the team that eats the garbage..."

Dude must write these rants out and read them on air because the whole thing was too perfect!

I guess I feel the same. Which is never something I thought I'd say.

I wonder if this is similar to why people who do hard time for a crime they didn't commit usually seem not that mad about it when they get out. It's part of you now - to regret the last X years is to regret yourself.

I also like how he referenced the 3 heartbreaking beatdowns we just put on 3 teams to win this thing. We're doing to other teams what Elway used to do to us. You're left bewildered wondering how in the hell did that just happen?

So, as fans we were wrongly imprisoned for five decades, became judicial experts while incarcerated, finally were released, sought out our wrongful accusers and the crooked DA who put us behind bars, framed them all, and then led the plaintiff's judicial team that put them behind bars for the rest of their lives?

That does seem oddly familiar.

I want to say I remember his calls from as far back as the late 90s and early 2000s. I could be wrong, though.

Kerwin in Riverside
Doc Mike Ditolla
Silk

I spent the better part of 2 decades listening to Rome. Tapped out in 2014 due to the interviews becoming so corporate because the athletes were all afraid to say anything that might be construed as edgy. This Iafrate call is a real blast from the past! So spot on it's ridiculous. He absolutely nailed our existence as Chiefs fans.

Who was the Spicoli dude? Drawing a blank.

Is that dude still living? He sounded like he had one foot in the grave 15 years ago.

Silk brah was kind of a Spicoli dude, but not the one I'm thinking about. Shit...what was his name? :hmmm:

Anyone over 40-45 will feel this exactly. To be brutally teased for 50 years and to have 3 horrible tragedies on top of it; Derrick Thomas, Joe Delaney and Jovan Belcher it was a like a giant dam burst.......

He missed a few of the horrible moments like the 1971 Christmas Day but overall he nailed it 100%.

Great summation.

Not complaining by any means......:shake:

Stopped listening about 10 years ago but I remember Iafrate and Silk. Still doing smack down lol. Wonder if Jay Mohr still comes on. What resonated with is how we made ourselves believe good teams were great, especially with those Marty defenses, which were great.
