I will keep on doing what I have been doing: Hoping for the best, but not losing my shit when the status quo happens.

I'm finding this constant negativity tiresome. We have sucked for years. We were an embarrassment. A big ****ing joke. I'm done with the negativity.

I wanted Geno. I think we overpaid for Smith. I'm scratching my head over some of their moves.

Reid and Dorsey obviously have a plan. For crissakes, Reid watched every down of every player for the whole ****ing year before he even met with Clark. I'm going to give them AT LEAST a half a season before I start calling them dumb-asses and screaming for their head.

I don't think I'm accepting mediocrity by choosing to not scream and yell and be totally pissed off by the moves so far. If you think so, you are entitled to you opinion.

I was an early and financial supporter of SOC. Season ticket holder for years. I think anyone would label me a hard core Chiefs fan. Just like most of the posters on this board. We deserve better than we have been given by our team. I will be a Chiefs fan until I become worm food. Lifes too short to go around pissed all the time. I did enough of that the last few years.

I'm going to chose to hope that Reid and Dorseys plan is sound and will result in the return of winning football and our first playoff win since the Montana era. Who's with me?

How are they being complete idiots? They have a legit argument.

See, you're just as guilty as they are. You wanna play the role of "wait and see" but refuse to acknowledge their very valid argument.

There is no more reason to label them an idiot than there is to label you an idiot.

If you truly were neutral like you say you are, then you'd understand their argument and not label them as "bitching"

It's nice, isn't it?

Perhaps I have grown up and figured out that football is (normally) fun to watch, but I have no control so why should I lose my shit?

I thought the negativity was related to the last regime and Cassel...but it's clear a lot of the people on this forum just like to bitch...probably are unhappy in their real life and so they bring it to the forum. Pretty sad place to be around. I am actively looking for a chiefs forum that doesn't have all the negativity and depressed personalities this place has.

Moving on sounds great to me.
As in you can stop clicking on the threads that aren't all rainbows and unicorns so you can try to "educate" all us that aren't happy with the shit trade for Alex Smith.
If you're getting tired of hearing us bitch, it's nobody's fault but yours.

I'm neutral in the sense that I think it's important we give the people we were all so excited about and have done a great job otherwise the benefit of the doubt - that's all. I don't claim that Alex will be the best QB we've ever had - only that claiming that our franchise is doomed forever because of it is silly.

I do think comparing Alex (who has improved pretty much every year) to Cassel (who had a moderately OK year once) is completely unfair, but I've never claimed that Alex will be the team's savior.

Maybe that's what it comes down to - I get tired of everyone arguing whether things are black or white when I'd like to see more discussion about what shade of grey it is.
