The Chiefs are a great franchise. I wish the Colts hadn't left Baltimore and there was more history between the KC/Baltimore franchises, but alas, the Ravens have turned out well for us. |
it was legal and a reaction to the gov't increasing debt and printing money. The government started regulating silver and that caused the price to drop, which caused them to lose considerable amount of money. They also fined them to save face, but it wasn't criminal, and left without governemnt interference would have been brilliant as inflation did go through the roof.
