Today Is An Exciting Day To Be A Kansas City Chiefs Fan!

Love all the posts by all real and true Chief's fans. I was there for the Christmas Day game over 40 years ago and long for another game as exciting, only with the score reversed. I just want to remind Clark Hunt of one important fact. As fans we are the true owners of this wonderful and storied franchise. As the owner of record, you are the caretaker. Years from now, someone else will own the franchise, but the great fans in K.C. and everywhere will continue to be the "owners". It is your task to see that the day we have all waited for comes as soon, and as often, as possible. As always, we fans look forward to the upcoming season with unlimited hope. We also hope that both you and Scott Pioli have learned from the mistakes of the past as regards the non-signings and short sightedness of the holes left in the roster. If you can look the fans squarely in their collective eyes and say that you have done your absolute best, and make us believe it, then that is all we can ask.

Great posts by everybody. Here is one for you. Being a Chiefs fan is like being the village idiot. We are just too stupid to know any better, but happy enough to not to want to change! I too turned 63 in December and have been that idiot since their inception in Dallas when Abner Haynes was running wild. Go Chiefs, but please go with a franchise QB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the pick me up written like a die hard fan. I always hope things get better rather than worse but when the chips are down Win or lose I love my Chiefs. I can't get behind anybody else.

Put the Chiefs in my viens with a needle baby. Love the enthusiasm brother. Keep the spirit alive man. We will get there one day.

If you every have any trouble with an unused ticket again let me know I will even drive.

I am now in my 60's and have been a diehard Chiefs fan since I was 12. That is more than a lifetime (or 2) for most of you but serves to show that "addict" truly describes my allegiance to the Red and Gold! I moved away from KC when I was 18 and for most of my life I have been starved for Chief's news both in season and out. The internet helped a lot, but the last few years of AA (and (AP) have finally given me the fix I need on a regular basis. I can't help but pull up AA every morning to see what be there to feed my addiction. Living now in Southern California I at least have a few stories hit the page as soon as I wake. That being said, I live and die waiting for the key decisions to be made, watching mediocre play and hoping for more. I spend my Sundays at 10am drinking beer (the good part?) and watching from some bar that puts my games on in a remote corner unless they are kicking some Packer butt (also the good part!). There are times I feel that my Chiefs are snakebit, having drafted Todd Blackledge and paid penance ever since. With the season now over for us, I look forward to new coordinators (loved when RAC and Weiss were picked up) to improve the offense and maintain the defense, free agency and hopes of a solid draft (oh, for a chance at a franchise qb). With a little luck and a tweak or two, can we not get back to the glory of 13-3 seasons and hopes of at least one freakin' victory in the playoffs? It can happen, and that is why I am living in the moment, each moment, as a Chiefs fan. I may be running out of time to see my Chief's next Superbowl, but as an "addict", it is in my blood to continue sitting on that barstool waiting for the magic to come again. Living for my Chiefs one day at a time!

This article made my day! I love football. I personally think it is the greatest sport on Earth. I was born into a hardcore Chiefs loving family. It's in my blood. Even if I wanted to, I don't know how to stop being a Chiefs fan. There are other teams in the NFL that I root for in post season if/when the Chiefs don't make it. This year I am rooting for the Saints or the Giants. (Drew Brees is an amazing person and I wish he was at KC soooo bad) However, I just can NEVER get to the level of intensity or excitement for them as I do when rooting for the Chiefs. I just don't get the same feeling for them. Also, nothing in this world compares to Arrowhead Stadium. I've been fortunate to travel and see a lot of amazing places and Arrowhead is still at the top of my list.

You have to think how far we've come when we go 7-9, miss the playoffs by a field goal, after all the injuries and we all say it's a bad year. Which is actually true. We should have won the division for the second year in a row. But what a difference from the Herm years. We are on the cusp of being a playoff team every year. That's something to get excited about!

chiefs 13 and 3 3 and 13 only real change is the language i use when shouting at my tv

I come from a Die Hard Chiefs family, & have learned that the ups & downs come with that territory, there is no stadium like Arrowhead. There are no better fans than KC Chiefs fans. The Chiefs will forever be apart of me & my family. LET'S GO CHIEFS!!!!!!!!!

Good...Bad...Up or Down..I will ALWAYS be a Chiefs fan!!! I must say though, I have HOPE for the first time in a looooooooooong time. Maybe one day I will make it to Arrowhead and see them in person! Never give up the dream!

Being a die hard chiefs fan is like being an addict you know it's going to turn out bad but you keep coming back for more!!

Being a die hard chiefs fan is just like being an addict you know it's wrong but you keep coming back for more!!
