That being said, you still gotta enjoy life here and a wise man once said, “you don’t experience life, you experience the life you focus on”.

These days, there’s more distractions than ever. Social media will consume several hours of people’s time today scrolling, and half or more of what they see is going to try to piss them off or cause worry.

I gotta tell you, getting off the socials that have these algorithms designed to draw emotion out of you.. for many that would be a great decision. A lot of what’s posted is about gaining attention or even money in some instances. There’s plenty of good football discussion and coverage out there — here on CP, and a laundry list of good NFL-wide and Chiefs podcasts/shows. Real people who will be genuine and honest in how they talk about this overly entertaining sport. Cut out the bullshit trolls. Dare I say feel bad for those people if they have nothing better to do than try to tear others’ achievements down.

I’ve grown to appreciate the LVIII team a lot more this week which has been cool. Felt like when we won that one, everything instantly shifted to threepeat pursuit and that didn’t really allow us to properly process the achievement that is a repeat.

Honestly I love this time of year. The offseason allows me to be more productive as a person but also roster building is one of the best parts of fandom. We’ve gotta enjoy every last bit of this next decade or so because we are going to be one of the six to eight teams every year that has a real genuine shot to win it. And I think we are too good from the top down not to keep stacking. These are the good ol’ days.

Fantastic post.
