Chiefs Why do you watch the Chiefs during a bad year?

**Rain Man** · 10-12-2008, 08:39 PM

I am in no way saying that this is a bad year, and if we caught a few breaks to things other than Brodie's bones, we could easily be undefeated.

But that aside, assume that for some reason this was a bad year for the Chiefs. Why would you watch the games?

Poll to follow faster than a Brodie Croyle dislocation upon contact.

TrickyNicky · 10-12-2008, 08:41 PM

Because I'm a true fan. duh.

blueballs · 10-12-2008, 08:43 PM

it keeps the head of my dick
from getting chapped

2bikemike · 10-12-2008, 08:43 PM

Same reason I stare at Car Wrecks and Train Wrecks.

kcxiv · 10-12-2008, 08:46 PM

This is a pretty good trainwreck as stated above. This shit is comedy though how bad we suck on both side of the field.

GoTrav · 10-12-2008, 08:46 PM

because Herm is going to turn it around, duh

Ultra Peanut · 10-12-2008, 08:47 PM

Like Nick Cannon, it's hilaaaaaaaaarious.

JuicesFlowing · 10-12-2008, 08:47 PM

Because I'm a true fan, and I hate the other 30 teams. I do like Washington, but they are rarely on tv.

blueballs · 10-12-2008, 08:51 PM

even herm edwards chiefs
is better than no chiefs at all

Hammock Parties · 10-12-2008, 08:52 PM

They're my team. I watch them, even when I root for them to get their asses blown to smithereens.

Its Tradition

I started watching the Chiefs in 1993 when I first moved to Kansas. Before moving to Kansas I had no idea the sport of football even existed. We play baseball in Puerto Rico.

I've only missed a handful of games since I started watching back then... I can't imagine NOT watching them on Sunday.

kcfanintitanhell · 10-12-2008, 08:58 PM

It's on a game-to-game-thing nowadays. Been a fan for so long I can't imagine abandoning them for another team, even though it was tempting when the Titans/Oilers came to Nashville. Just looking for signs of progress...but I am getting soooooo tired.

cause i want to see how the young guys do as the season goes on

I love the game of football and, win or lose, the Chiefs are the team I root for. Most years we only get 16 opportunities to see them play- how could I pass on such a limited opportunity? Besides, even when the Chiefs suck I still get to drink beer, eat bad food and watch the real teams play on the other tvs.
