Yes, and it grows every single game I watch this kid play. I appreciate the past and the great players we've had come through here, but I want to live in the future with this team now, not the past and the "would've, could've, should've" teams.

Yes. I lived through the clown show Marty years. The offense of DV. The Dark ages. The hopeless years of Alex.
Almost 4 decades of complete humiliation as a chiefs fan. It’s a new era and a new beginning. |

In the Alex Smith days I used to enjoy old Chief highlights from the 1990s. Something got rewired in my brain and now I just don’t care.
It’s irrelevant. Only thing I care about is that we won a dusty, old Superbowl from 1969 and it’s time to add another one to the trophy case I’m also super relaxed before games now. I just enjoy them. If we look like trash early on, I know Reid and Mahomes can sort it out. If we lose, there’s always next week and you just know Mahomes will always give you a chance to win. He’s not going to curl into a ball in the clutch, this man will go out swinging, win or lose. |

I like looking back because it makes me appreciate Mahomes that much more. But I've definitely let go of a lot of the angst.

I'm more interested. Having reached the light at the end of the tunnel I can now think about all those shitty years as prologue to this. It's no longer just a string of abject failure without an end in sight.

The main thing this era has done for me is it has made me less bitter. I still love discussing old times, though...and it feels good to be able to do so without feeling a ton of angst. |

Once we win a playoff game at home, yes.
And, hell yeah, I want to forget the Chiefs History from 2005 to 2017 |

Those who fail to remember the past are doomed to repeat it.

Maybe I should clarify that I still enjoy football history and Chiefs history, but I have no emotional investment in it. I have suddenly been able to let go of the anger over the Broncos cheating, the Colts getting lucky, quarterbacks getting weird bounces against us, kickers missing critical kicks, and all of the other stuff. It's the past. I have achieved a zen state.
And like Best22 said, I'm calm before games and excited about them. We can win any game at any place at any time.
