OTWP
Mecca

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.

Gaz has been gone so long, I don't even remember his style. Other than his font.

Also, Mecca doesn't debate. He condescends.

I just don't have enough energy to really care all that much about the Chiefs anymore. Someone posted about this last week in a thread (I think it was 'maqe): I care more about ChiefsPlanet and the posters than I do the Chiefs at this point. If it wasn't for this website, I'm not sure if I talk about the Chiefs to anyone or even really think about them that much.

Can't blame ya bud. I feel as if I've devoted a big part of my life to a team that will never love me back. Just once, I'd like to see them draft their starting quarterback and make a real run at things.

Even I've lost the passion I used to have for this team because they always repeat the same failed plan/results.

That reminds me, got a call from Bill Gates the other day. Said he wanted to do something good for a stranger, so he dialed a random number, got me, and asked if he could wire $50 million to my bank account.

I mean the money would be nice, but I'm no charity case. Would feel so guilty if I took he because he worked so hard for it and should keep it himself. Plus the thought of not ever having to work ever again is a little scary. I'm afraid I'd be bored, and would be jealous of those who have a very fulfilling job that they get to spend 50-60 hours doing every week until they're old.

Told him I'd have to think about it, but he got all butthurt and threatened to call someone else. He did give me his # though and told me to call him to arrange the transfer. I know this is every person's dream and all but I'm really conflicted and confused about what to do.

Yeah, it was me.

I have WAY more invested in Chiefsplanet than I ever did in the actual Chiefs.

I think many of us are getting to this point. In Missouri, for the most part, you just have to settle for having somebody play that sport at that level. We seem to be a state that's the subject of a cruel experiment that's testing how far "sports franchises/team/groups/organizations" can ride the "you're lucky to have a team" concept. If it weren't for the assholes in St. Louis and their stupid baseball team, we'd be left with two Missouri-based contenders in all of sports, and THAT'S in minor league hockey and D2 college basketball. And who even knew they existed as a powerhouse before we heard they were in the championship.

Anyway, we have little reason to get excited about the Chiefs anymore. I'm still holding-out hope for th Royals (again this year).

It'd be harder if the Chiefs didn't treat their fans with such open contempt.

Exactly how I feel. I haven't been posting here long, but I really like this board. I've said it already in another thread, but I'm just numb to the chiefs at this point. They're losing me(and others I know) as a fan. I decided, after going to watch that debacle in Indy, that this team is not getting another penny from me until they show me they wanna win and win at least a playoff game. No more merchandise, no more games at Arrowhead. Yes, I've made friends in the Arrowhead parking lot and loved the tailgating and the friendships made. But, I just can't justify spending money on a franchise anymore that just doesn't seem to give a shit. Like I said though, I do like this board and most of the posters here, so I won't be going anywhere anytime soon.

Chiefsplanet has been something for me that has given back one hundred fold. From advice, to prayer requests, tech help, being a mod, meeting people for tailgates, etc.

The Chiefs haven't given me anything other than a lot of heartbreak.

That's the way it is when you root for one of the bottom 5 franchises in the NFL.

'Hamas' Jenkins 04-09-2014 09:42 AM

If you root for a competent organization and the Chiefs, it becomes a lot easier to distance yourself from the Chiefs, not because they lose, but because of the incompetence with which they do so and their thinly veiled contempt for their customers.
