That was just my sarcastic way of agreeing with your post.

Bro, thanks for the kind words. Right back at you, BTW. But what comes across as negative to you is realism for me.
I've been a Chiefs fan since I was born in 1965. My dad played in the Chiefs band during the Super Bowl run. I've know Tony DiPardo since day one. My parents dressed me in Chiefs gear since I was born (and my mom routinely sends us Chiefs blankets, mugs, shot glasses, jerseys - you name it).
I sat in an empty stadium in the 70's and 80's. I sat in a full stadium in the 90's and watched Barry run for 200 yards and Christian run for more than 100 yards in a single game. I've partied with the Chiefs, from Word to Ross to Lewis to Smith to Mass to Hackett to Thomas.
I went to sports bars each and every weekend in Hollywood for nearly a decade, often relegated to a single 20" television while the Jets, Giants, Philly and Raiders fans watched their games on the big screen. I've taken time out of vacations in Cancun and Cabo San Lucas to watch the Chiefs (lose, unfortunately, each and every time) instead of spending time with my wife in the pool or on the beach.
I've had the Direct TV package since 2003. I've never missed a game. I will never miss a game.
But the bottom line is that the team has been run into the ground. I won't extrapolate in this post but you know the deal.
But, I'll still never miss a game. I'll still hold out hope. But my heart tells me one thing and my head tells me another.
