Just playing Devil's Advocate here but we're being asked to trust these guys implicitly when one of the biggest "suck" players lost was a guy they brought in?

No not at all. Your opinion like mine doesn't mean anything to those people. There is no trust necessary there.

You might be one of the few that couches the argument this way. Just saying.

EDIT: And to be clear, I wasn't suggesting that Reid and Dorsey are asking us to trust them. That's a given when they ask you to buy season tickets. My statement was directed at the people here who continuously shoot down any criticism of the regime. They keep saying "you have to trust what these guys are doing".

But they recognized it was a mistake.

Unlike previous regimes.

True. Admitting a mistake is a good first step. A good second step is to not make those kinds of mistakes in the first place.

I just look at that differently. To me it just isn't trust. It is belief. Yeah those words go together in some ways and can be built off of one another in some settings. But not in a situation of franchise to a fan IMO.
I believe they will play games on Sunday. I believe they will lose some they shouldn't and win some they shouldn't. I believe I will be happy and pissy about "Chiefs football". I believe that we will draft a 1st Rd stud QB someday. I believe we will another Super Bowl some day.
Most of all I believe I can actually enjoy my Chiefs football if I am not trying to trust someone or something that I have absolutely no control or input over and into. Purchasing a ticket or a seasons worth of tickets is merely the price to be entertained, nothing more nothing less.
But I can't trust someone or something that I do not know and have a repore with.

That was refreshing after Pioli. Yeah don't do that again.

Wow. You and I have an almost identical view on the big picture. And yet, somehow our perspectives are completely different when it comes to the Chiefs.

Interesting.

You said Chiefs, Draft a 1st rd QB, and win superbowl in the same post. LMAO

Quality minds often have debates and differences.

I think this thread might well be the home of the biggest circle jerk argument ever.

It's weird, huh?

Usually there is a "line drawn in the sand" over issues like this...strange for a thread to last this long without there being much heated debate.

Oh it happened. Cooler heads have just prevailed.

Bewbies 04-08-2014 09:21 PM

As long as I don't have to watch our players tell us to #getcovered with commercials during the games this can continue. I think pimping that shit during a football game would unite us all.

IMO it's because this place doesn't have a large portion of its core group of A list debaters anymore.

OTWP
Mecca
Dane
Hamas (even though he does post, just not as much)
FAX
Gaz

Just to name a few...

The debates don't get taken up a few notches like they used to.

IMO at least.
