How can you blame them for the franchise being run into the ground? And sure, you may disagree with some personel decisions, but what's not to like about the "get in shape or GTFO" mantra?
I guess what I'm asking is, If you've been a chiefs fan your whole life... and hated seeing those "other guys" run the team into the ground....
How could you possibly not be hopeful now? This aint the same old Chiefs. (And I don't mean this season... long term)

It's not that simple.
Yes, I'm extremely happy that Carl's reign of terror is over.
But, like any rebuilding nation, it takes time to become a world power again. It's not going to happen overnight. It's not going to happen in a year. It's going to take a few years, if every move that is made is the right move.
I'm done criticizing personnel. I'll admit, I'm not happy with the 2009 draft overall and I'm not happy with the lack of free agent signings. But that doesn't matter now, as the team is gearing up for the upcoming season. My opinion doesn't matter (if it ever did). It's all about the guys on the field and to a much lessor extent, the man in the front office.
Only time will tell if their moves (or lack thereof) payoff.
But I can't unilaterally get excited about the death of one regime when the new regime, IMO, has missed more than a few opportunities to impress and improve upon its predecessors.
