It was directed at the entirety of Chiefs Kingdom. I'm not as new as you think and I've seen your posts and understand that you're out for laughter, which God knows helps out in times like these. And I understand you're one of the longtime Anti-Herm, Anti-Brodie guys. If anything, that makes you sound prescient so far. My whole point is that all those that were on board for Herm as captain of the rebuild that are now saying fire everyone short of Clark himself need to read what they wrote in April after the draft or in July as camp began and calm down about 0-2 start. Fact: Herm starts 0-2. That is why he will not be the guy to lead us to the promised land. But that doesn't mean this team won't improve dramatically by seasons end.

You're kinda new around here...I've always <b>ALWAYS</b> been anti-Harm and anti-Brodie. I just choose to poke fun at the situation instead of jumping ship to another team. I write 75% of my content as a goof, with the rest supposedly resembling some good NFL content. This isn't supposed to be melodramatic serious writing that I'm putting out there at least. This bleeding will not stop this season and apathy is the next step. The die hard football fans in our quad state area deserve better than a coach that has a strategy of chewing the clock. We deserve better entertainment that that at a base level. Who wants their favorite team to run the clock?..no one. We have to fork out too much financially and emotionally for our Chiefs to deserve to be subjected to our current level of Chief torture. -But we are, (& this goes out to everyone) so have a coke and a smile and STFU. :-) I will write that down Sudden, right under “Things that won’t happen Sunday”

Chan was supposed to bring in some sort of creativity to our running game. In fact, I don't have a problem with running on 75% of first downs as long as we run different formations, different holes, different types of runs (pitches, counters, anything getting some pulling, etc.). This dive off of Waters ass is getting predictable and old. Chan needs to step his playcalling up bigtime in the next few weeks. Whir, I hear that.

And I will be honest and tell you that I get caught up in my own emotion and I haven't been watching these games with ice in my veins. It's hard to sit back and enjoy losing, no matter what everyone said back in April. However, let me make one thing clear that I believe: these 2008 Chiefs can play. They have talent. It's the coaching staff I'm starting to not trust and not believe in. Limiting LJ, one of the best players on the field (IMO) to 12 carries and using the excuse "We were behind so we had to pass" is pretty weak. Sudden, you make a good point.

I also think we're laughing about it all so it isn't so painful. Everyone else is laughing at us, we might as well get a chuckle at our own expense, too. Thigpen is not going to win on Sunday. No how, no way. Crane, hilarious post, brother. If we take this too seriously all of our heads are going to explode. It's almost like a prison stint, so any time one of us can fly the inmates a funny kite it's a good thing. Melodrama is a great way to cope with this, Sudden.

Harm starts 0-2. Its a fact of life. The level of overreaction to this simple, unfortunate, universal truth is ridiculous, but expected. We just hit rock bottom. But the forecasts of 0-16 are patently insane. I love how everyone could be so cool and patient about the rebuild in the offseason coming off a solid draft class and no one seemed to mind that our team would suck early on. But once those actual games are played everyone starts jumping ship and saying the entire roster is a failure and those that aren't should be traded to contenders since they deserve the right to compete for glory. Some of you guys are being so melodramatic about this crap that I'm wondering if I should take back what I said to an old ex about her being the most melodramatic person in the world. Stop the histrionics, folks. This team isn't as bad as you all think it is. Oh, and I'm gonna go ahead and say one thing: Thigpen wins on Sunday. Write that down.
