Chiefs Blowfish's Pre-Game Speech

**gblowfish** · 01-12-2019, 08:54 AM

It's that morning again.

That Playoff Morning.

I didn't sleep well. I was invited to the pre-game dinner last night on the Plaza, but with the snow I wanted to make sure I'd have everything ready to go for today. I'm glad the rest of the CP crew was able to have a "Knights of the Round Table" meeting. OK, "Knights of the Rectangular Table!"

I'm ready, but I'm familiarly anxious about today. It's going to be one of those monumental struggle days with the weather and the situation at hand.

But as one great Chief once said (Chief Lone Waddy): "I will endeavor to persevere."

I have all my stadium gear ready to go. I'm having my morning coffee from the same cup I've had game day coffee since 1980. I'll be wearing one of my dad's Chiefs stocking caps and one of my mom's Chiefs pins. I'm about to burn a picture of the Kicker Who Will Remain Nameless in the fireplace. I will put a cup of Gates BBQ sauce on the mantle like I did in 1985 before Game Six of the World Series. I would do ANYTHING to break this home playoff curse.

I put a MAHOMIE sticker on my car. I am not especially optimistic, but I will go in with a clean slate. Nobody expected this, so win or lose, this year has already exceeded all expectation.

But it would be so much greater if we can just get a win today. Today could be our finest hour.

I don't believe in petitioning the Lord in Prayer over sporting events, but if YOU do, PLEASE ASK THE MAN UPSTAIRS to let us have victory. The city deserves it. Now...where did I put my bic lighter??
