I don't hate Smith, but I hated the thought of another retread QB, and I'm certainly not going to get excited over a few good games last year with a SB caliber team (see Cassel) or an efficient game versus a terrible Jaguars team. |
There are certain types of people who always see the glass half empty, people who will never be willing to live with hope or optimism. I understand, I just feel sorry for people like that. It sucks that the Chiefs are about to have a good year with a solid, young, up-and-coming QB and people like you are going to miss the ride because you'd rather be a negative nancy. Have fun with that.
