Chiefs *** The Official Chiefs Appreciation Thread ***

Guys, good vibes here only. When I come to KC for a game and they win, my post-game celebration involves fondue and drinking a fair bit at the Melting Pot. We all have our things that help us to appreciate where we were in our youth when this team brought us endless heartache and disappointment.

I remember flying up for the Chiefs/Broncos playoff game in ‘98 from Florida, and walking out of that stadium and seeing grown men frozen in their seats in utter emotional evisceration was something I’ve never forgotten. I remember when Knile Davis returned that opening kickoff for a TD and how my wife of 5 days and I celebrated the first Chiefs playoff win. I remember everything after that.

And now I remember 5 straight AFCCGs “hosted.” Quotes obviously because we’re not quite official but it’s legitimate.

I just wanted to say that those of you who judge a season’s success solely on “did they win a SB?” are kinda like missing the point. It’s truly the journey - not the destination. Don’t get me wrong - that SB was amazing. But the ability to appreciate this team’s success every season in grazing the apex is still really ****ing cool.

Next week? Let’s ****ing do this. We re-tooled our offense and had the best offense in football and made it just as far as we did in prior seasons. Time to just appreciate how fortunate we are. We are THAT team.

So this is this thread. Be grateful and thankful. How much closure has this given your 12yr old self? Can you step back from bitching about Karlaftis in coverage to appreciate that we’re here? Can we give a group hug to Toub, Spags, and Reid?

Love you all.
