How could I not? Andy Reid and some of the best offensive weapons in the league. Also take a look at the rest of the AFC West and tell me they don't win again. Playoff wins, now that's another discussion. Guaranteed we have fun during the regular season.

Same here, except not quite as long as you. I used to religiously follow the NFL, especially the Chiefs and the Rams when they had the "Greatest Show on Turf." But I have slowly lost interest over the past 10-12 years.
I'm always happy to hear when a former K-Stater does something good in the NFL, but as far as the games themselves, not so much.

not that bad. feel they tossed Alex under the bus. might have a talented group, but my guess is that Mahomes, good as he may be, will struggle and the season will suffer at some time.
don't get me wrong: LOVE my Chiefs. Hope they do well. Would be exciting to see them in the superbowl and win it. but what happens will happen.
and frankly, the whole kneeling bit and the extraneous political stuff just sucks from the game. then, too, never having been a fan of show-boating and celebration it just gets a little old and unnecessary.
tough to supplant my Cats.
If you have to be persuaded, reminded, pressured, lied to, incentivized, coerced, bullied, socially shamed, guilt-tripped, threatened, punished and criminalized...you can be absolutely certain that what is being promoted is not in your best interest

I have not watched an NFL game in many a year. So, I am not excited about the Chiefs or any other NFL team. Dittos for the NBA and Major League baseball. The leagues, players, and owners have all taken the fun out of the game by taking themselves way to seriously. It is now about the money and nothing else which totally turns my stomach. College sports are unfortunately going down the same path. I enjoy Division III sports more and more every day.

This is funny stuff. I hear these kind of people all the time. Stopped watching years ago, haven't seen a game in decades, etc. But somehow know everything and everyone in the league. It's ok, you can say you like the NFL.

Seriously, Mahomes and Pringle are the only two members of the Chiefs I can name and that is because of this website. I also know that Lockett plays for Seattle because of Twitter.
