Madden was a slovenly, uncouth s.o.b. back in the day and his team was a bunch of cheating, dirty slobs. He thought it was funny that the visitors locker room was infested with rats when K.C. came to town and personally ordered the exterminators to leave. It must have been humiliating when his Raiders literally had their bags packed to go to the Super Bowl in 1969 and the Chiefs beat them at their own stadium for the last AFL championship. San Diego was good the first couple years with Lance Alworth, but the Chiefs mostly got the best of them. Denver never won a damn thing in the AFL - later in the AFC, yes, but never in the true AFL. KC was the winningest team in the AFL and those teams have never forgotten it.
