I like this board because it's not full of rose colored glass kool aid drinkers. There's lots of realists. You get the non-sugar coated version of stuff here.

Plus there's enough gallows humor when times are bad that we can all enjoy each others misery.

The only nastiness I've ever had to put up with is in the DC section. It's gotten worse exponentially, soiled mostly by serial posters who troll there and never have anything at all to say about football. I can see them hunkered down in their mom's basement, sitting on a crate of MRE's with a AR-15 in one hand, and tapping on a keyboard with the other hand. But hey, as they say in the Sonic commercial "If you can't stand the heat, avoid Aruba." I think there's a lot of wisdom in that.

Also, It's seldom that a story that affects the Chiefs doesn't appear here either first, or very quickly. So for me, the CP is an invaluable source of Chiefs info, unfiltered and usually spot on.

Plus a lot of the crazy bastards on here make me laugh just about every day.

So I like it.

I agree you old fart.
