X-Factor's Inside the Huddle-Suicide Mission?

Entering where no KC
Superfan has gone before


In scientific terms, a black hole is a region of spacetime from which nothing, not even light, can escape. A similar phenomenon exists within the Oakland Coliseum, which is home of the Raiders.It’s a place where sanity enters and is never seen again, where fans from opposing teams never venture, a place where the entire spectrum of colors is reduced to silver and black. All that will change on Sunday.

The X-Factor - complete with my cheesehead, form-fitting spandex and bright red and gold Chiefs’ colors will be on the front row. Yes, you read that right. Like Captain Kirk and the Starship Enterprise, I’ll be going where no Chiefs Superfan has ever gone before . . . into the belly of the beast.
This isn’t something I do casually. As a Superfan, I’ve made it my goal to attend a Chiefs road game in every NFL stadium. As of this moment - after 73 road trips - there are only three stadiums missing from the list. I’ve yet to see KC play at Atlanta, against the Jets in the Meadowlands (I have seen them play the Giants) and at Oakland.

As of Sunday, I’ll be able to mark the Raiders game off my bucket list.
Insane? Yes. Stupid? Open to debate.But I’m not venturing into the Black Hole on my own. I’ll be accompanied by none other than my good friend and fellow Superfan Raider Ron who, by the way, hasn’t missed a Raiders game in more than 20 years. That’s a real Superfan. Raider Ron has been to Kansas City on many occasions, has been begging me for years to be his guest at a game in Oakland.

At the time I agreed to make this trip, the Chiefs were 0-3 and I felt the team needed a spark. Coach Todd Haley and my other friends on the team are super-excited that I’m willing to do this for them.They also agree that I’m super-crazy which has never been open to debate.I’ll be a guest of honor (or dishonor) during the pregame tailgate party where there will be thousands and thousands of Raiders fans.

Raider Ron has promised that I’ll be well-protected which is a good thing because I’ve been told that, among Superfans, I’m among the most hated in the Raider Nation. Denver and San Diego don’t have Superfans, so Kansas City is the only division rival with true Superfans and, apparently, Raiders fans know the X-Factor.

The trip is already generating a lot of traffic on Facebook and message boards. This is turning out to be a big deal - even bigger than I expected. I’ve been getting e-mails from people asking me to reconsider for my personal safety. I’ve even been told by friends that I could become the first official Chiefs martyr, which would be one more thing to mark off my bucket list.
Am I worried? Yes and no.

Any Chiefs fan who would enter the Black Hole without some apprehension is beyond crazy. But I’m putting my trust into Raider Ron and my own experience as a Superfan. I fully expect to be the butt of a lot of ridicule, jokes and profanity. This is Oakland Coliseum and it is the NFL. I’d be disappointed in anything less.

The key is to fight back - not with fists or words, but with humor. I can make more fun of myself than any Raiders fan. I’ll shake hands, pose for photos . . . whatever it takes to diffuse a situation before it gets out of hand.
And, once the game starts, everyone - including myself - will be much more concerned with what happens on the field.

Make no mistake about it. I hate the Raiders and the Raiders feel the same way towards the Chiefs. I expect to be a lightning rod for that resentment on Sunday. But I also believe that, as a Superfan, I’m held to a higher standard.
At the end of the day, it’s not about me, or Raider Ron, or whether the Raiders want to lynch me. This is about the NFL and the teams that we are truly passionate about. Hopefully, at the end of the day we’re talking about a great football game which (of course) the Chiefs have won.

I’m anticipating a memorable game and a weekend that will go into the Superfan history book. And I’m also planning to break new scientific ground as the first Chiefs Superfan to enter - and leave - the Black Hole.
Arrowman and Stephen Hawking, eat your heart out.

The dude needs someone that he personally trusts to walk through everything with him, so that he clearly understands he's still not well and needs frequent professional guidance.

The sickness they deal with day in and out is what appears as normal to them. You can't just take a temp and go welp I got some mental issues.

Taking a hard line is absolutely not the way to go. I have a family member that deals with schizophrenia and it's a long, delicate process. If it's not handled with care, they will shut everything out and think you're the problem, along with everyone else.

When you posted his Facebook post, I don't believe your intentions were pure.

Strictly pure, no. X-Factor has been discussed several times around here, and the comments are always interesting when his name comes up.

But it's hard to watch someone struggling with mental illness. I have a big heart for individuals that do. The more videos I watched and posts on his page I read the more I actually felt myself caring for his well-being.

I don't know the guy personally, and by many accounts on here, he's a clown.

Clown or not, hopefully he can find a way to turn himself around.

What the ****? And Louie Aguiar gave him $200 for an autographed Bo Jackson baseball but let him keep the ball. I'm assuming that $200 bought a decent sized rock.

That was then ... this is now.

Admittedly, I knew people who went nuts from too much ... whatever ... cocaine, quaaludes and alcohol, acid, junk, etc. However, I never knew a single person who went nuts from amphetamines, so I'm a little confused. What is the deal with "meth"? Why are people so enamored with it? And why are they losing their minds?

Is the home-cooked version simply laced with poison? Is it so inexpensive that anybody can overindulge? What is the appeal? I'm not syncing up with the fad, here.

FAX
Having been there, done that many, many years ago (yes, back in the snorting crystal times) I kind of get it. I was up for 4 days straight one time and really had no brain function. I worked fast food, delivered the completely wrong order to some people and when the manager asked me about it I had no idea. No memory of what I had done just a couple minutes earlier.

So yes, even just snorting it ****ed me up a few times. Shooting up or smoking that shit has to take that to a different level. Thank God I was able to leave that behind me. I really think if I had kept it up it probably would have literally been the death of me (and was at least a contributing factor to a friends death).
