Oh, I get the point of view... just glad I'm not forced into it.

I'm curious though... how did KC fans become so passionate about your team? I get the Packers, Steelers and teams like that - I understand the fan devotion.

But, considering that most of the people on this forum were fans after 1980... pure guess on my part, but I think a small percentage were 70's or 60's fans of the Chiefs... what sparked the intense devotion?

1970s (70-79): 4 seasons over .500 / 6 seasons under .500
1980s (80-89): 3 seasons over .500 / 5 under .500 / 2 at .500
1990s (90-99): 9 seasons over .500 / 1 under .500
2000s (00-09): 3 seasons over .500 / 6 seasons under .500 / 1 season at .500

In 40 seasons... the 90s were obviously the greatest decade for the franchise and very likely where a core of the current fan base points to and says "that's why I love KC".

The decade of the 90s skews things a bit since they doubled the wins of any of the other three decades.

40 years - 19 over .500 / 18 under .500 / 3 at .500

The Chiefs organization should really have a statue of Marty put up at the stadium or rename it in his honor.

Oh... good luck today.

(Denver has 25* seasons over .500 and 9 under .500 with 6 at .500 ... *the game today decides the other one)

For me its just plain old loyalty.I started watching them when I was a kid and have just always liked the team.I don't need the SB wins to be a fan but yes,it would be nice to actually compete more often.

Thank for the good luck,you will surely need it.
