I'm going to say yes.

There was 1 QB in the 2009 draft and he went #1.

This year the Chiefs have #1. They needed to make a move at QB and they choose to go from Cassel and Quinn to Alex Smith and Chase Daniel. Now we are looking at trading down and picking a RT/future LT and trading Albert in a year.

What a ****ing disaster. The Chiefs are doomed to forever be morons.

That's exactly what I'm talking about in terms of circumstance. The irony being that our two highest picks in franchise history have come in those two particular drafts.

Nope.

This is the first off season since the start of the vermiel era that i can honestly say that i've stopped giving a shit. Matter of fact, i had completely forgotten that free agency had started until i logged in. In seasons past, i'd be refreshing CP as if it were christmas morning.

The Alex Smith trade killed this offseason for me. And Now Chase Daniel? Yeah....if the Chiefs start winning I'll start caring, until then, same shit different day.

If the passing game looks like shit in September, yeah, worst offseason ever.

Last offseason did it for me. When we kept Cassel, my "Give a ****" meter went into the negative.

But the Hunt's don't dictate these moves, it is just coincidence that the very same ****ing thing has been repeated for 30 years now, under 3 GMS and 7 HCs.

Get your "bright side" hat on and fill yourself with positive self-talk.

The other way of looking at it is that they're basically making the same kind of moves in 2013 that they made in 2009. Which would make this year seem more disappointing to me, because they can look back at 2009 and see just how well that approach worked.

That's actually the point I intended to make. I guess I didn't do a very good job of it.

This organization just doubled down on the True Fans. Trade for Alex Smith and signed the local boy.

Dayze 03-12-2013 04:01 PM

Yes.

I didn't think it could get worse than Herm. Then it did.

This.

Trues fans just remember Smith getting to the NFC Championship game, and you nailed it by bringing in the local kid.

They are just trying to sell season tickets again.

**** this franchise.
