I wanna see new teams win it. So do I. But "f*** them" because they are better than everyone else, in the league with a salary cap, is about the biggest meatball take I can think up. f*** the Bears. I wish my team had anywhere NEAR the success the Chiefs have had 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 34 minutes ago, Tony said: Not sure I get the hate for the Chiefs. Not caught up in any scandals, and their run is reaching Patriot-type levels in terms of playoff success. I saw Kelce's playoff stats today: 21 games, 156 receptions for 1,810 yards and 19 TD's. Incredible. Unless it's a situation like the Astro's, I have a hard time rooting against historic greatness. I think Taylor Swift has exploded some people's brains. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven’t heard it in the playoffs because they’ve been on the road but I will give the Tomahawk Chop still being a thing in the 21st century as a major ugh.

I don't hate the Chiefs, but the whining from earlier in the year really rubbed me the wrong way. They already get a lot of favorable calls, but they had the nerve to throw a fit over a correct offsides call. Plus they're in the Superbowl all the time, so I get why people would have Chiefs fatigue. Throw in Taylor Swift being a polarizing figure to football fans and I can definitely see why people would root against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would def. be rooting for Buffalo if they were in it, I really like Allen. I was also rooting for Detroit, but wasn't "sad" to see them bounced as obviously my interest is in the Bears and having the Packers and Lions on the rise is more than annoying, but I digress. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be honest, watching them overcome some of the absolute worst work by a wide receiver room I have seen earlier this season was something to behold. It just tells me that watch Mahomes, you are watching a generational QB that we should all take some time appreciate. The last time I saw a guy on this level, he took his head coach from a bust with Cleveland to an Hall of Famer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Chiefs still produce good games, for the most part (side eye to the ravens game), so I'm still good. Still like Mahomes and Reid. TBH I find 49ers much more boring than the chiefs. I still get annoyed when the nation gets behind an oft-suffering fan base just because when the sox were in the world series suddenly the fact that a team was about to end a 90 year old drought it was not really interesting to people. So I'm not rooting for detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Really, really really big win for the steelers getting Arthur Smith as OC. That should mesh extremely well with Tomlin and that roster. But boy, that guy has not had a QB has he. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) Came across this interesting factoid looking up what LaTroy Hawkins was doing now in terms of broadcasting/guest appearances... "Hawkins is the godfather of his Minnesota Twins teammate Pat Mahomes' son, Patrick II who is a quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs.[103] Another godson of Hawkins's, Elijah Johnson, played college basketball for the University of Kansas Jayhawks.[64] Edited January 30 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The perfect example of the difference is that Taylor swift sings whiny songs about exs while Stevie nicks wrote songs about her ex and sang them to him while she made him sing backup and play the guitar on stage.
