		<description>I&#039;m a huge Chiefs fan for life, and always optimistic about the future of the team.  However, I wish Herm would take a look around the league (at teams like the Patriots and the Cowboys) and realize that signing proven big names in free agency is just as important for success as drafting well.</description>

		<description>Chief Bartle:

We have had 4 upper level corner end zone angle seats, which we like for dual depth perception, for 13 or so  years.  We were able to move down in the same section about 4 or 5 years ago from about Row 16 to Row 8.  We, too, like to be able to see the whole field, but don&#039;t like being that far from the action.

But this year, we were able to move all the way down to lower level row 15, same basic corner end zone angle only slightly more toward visiting team sideline side of corner whereas before we were slightly more to the end zone side of corner.  Also we got the first 4 seats from aisle, whereas before we were in the middle of the section.  There were many other seats available in the same general area back in late March.  Remains to be seen if these corner angle seats will be too 1-dimensional, as All Weather Fan says.

This year clearly presented us with many more opportunities than in the past.  Get them while you can!</description>

		<description>Chief Bartle,
Good question, I&#039;ve tried each year and was able to move only 3 rows down and out of end zone in upper deck.  I actually prefer upper deck, but closer to the bottom where I see entire plays develop.  Lower level can tend to be one dimensional.

If money is no object there&#039;s plenty of Club level seating available.  They&#039;ve doubled in price due to the remodel and enhanced amenities.

Good luck.</description>

		<description>This part caught my eye:

&quot;illustrated by my first successful move-down in 19 years as season ticket holder.&quot;

As a brand-new season ticket holder this season, I have a question... will it take a very long time for me to get down into the lower level?</description>

		<description>I&#039;m in complete agreement with everyone here.

Building a contender takes time and I actually appreciate the fact that the Chiefs are completely starting over.  Does the whole process test our patience?  Absolutely.  But &#039;Fair Weather Fan Guy&#039; drives me nuts.  For example, I remember after Bill Self and the Jayhawks lost for the second consecutive time in the first round of the tournament.  Every fair weather fan was calling for Bill Self to be fired.  Why?  He had only been at KU for 3 years.  He had a proven track record at other schools, did well with Roy&#039;s players given the situation, won a few Big 12 titles, but lost a couple of heartbreakers in the first round.  Fast forward a couple of years and he&#039;s had the time to recruit &#039;his&#039; kind of players and develop &#039;his&#039; kind of team and now we have a national championship.

I look at Herm&#039;s situation the same way.  He won a Super Bowl as an assistant head coach in Tampa and he showed some signs of development as a head coach in New York.  We have actually drafted some good players on Herm&#039;s watch.  He&#039;s building a team brick by brick and I like what I see so far and I&#039;m willing to give him another 3 years to make it happen.  Hell, even Bill Belichick wasn&#039;t any good until he started stealing signals in New England.  So I&#039;m willing to give Herm a chance because contenders aren&#039;t built overnight.</description>

		<description>Living in L.A., I am constantly surrounded by fairweather fans to match the climate in which I live.  However, every now and then I run into a genuine Chiefs fan and each and everyone knows their Chiefs trivia dating back to their childhood and how they became a Chiefs fan.  This team has dedicated fans and always will.  I&#039;ll admit, I am not renewing my Sunday Ticket (for reasons other than just the Cheifs dismal performance last year), but I guarantee that any game not televised down here will cause me to appear at a sports bar on Sunday mornings with my jersey on and my appetite for a Chiefs victory.</description>

		<description>Great post.  I believe all the fair-weather fans have hit the road.  All that&#039;s left are the true Chiefs fans.

Don&#039;t worry - in a year or two all the strays will be back.  With company.</description>
