Now that the Cardinals have made the SB, the Chiefs are in Bengals/Lions territory, and frankly, I expect more. No, I don't expect them to win it all right now, or even in the near future. But they need to win a SINGLE playoff game once every 2 decades for chrissakes.

I'm glad you enjoyed the Hawkeyes season. It makes my point, although I do understand the frustration that people get when their franchise is struggling long-term.

It's not a cop-out. Your logic there IS terrible and it makes your attempt to bring the Sims example into it a waste of time. What more do you want said about it?

See, you've made an assumption about me, one that is wholly incorrect.

I never made that assumption, which means that you've made an assumption. And around, and around it goes. I think it clearly has bearing, irregardless of your position on drafting a QB. You insist it doesn't. There's really no reason to discuss it further.
