Yea pretty much.
Actually, if the internet and social media had been around during his reign, he most likely would not have lasted as long as he did.

It sounds like he was a great businessman and achieved a lot in his life, but not every endeavor is a success for even the greatest men. |

He was Lamar Hunt's room mate in college. He was really good at stuff like planning the Arrowhead construction and building Worlds of Fun, but didn't know shit about football. Once Stram left, he ran the team into the ground for 15 years until King Carl took over. Steadman was in charge during the 1983 Blackledge draft. They didn't take Marino because Mackovic was a big God-Squader, and Marino would curse at a receiver if he dropped the ball. So we got Sackledge instead.
I suffered with Steadman for years and years and years. Pissed me off when they put him on the ring of honor. They just did it because of tenure, because Lamar never wanted to fire anybody. He was basically a suit. Long career with the Chiefs, but not much more than a suit. Last edited by gblowfish; 07-05-2015 at 08:01 PM.. |

Maybe that will give you a little feel for what Chiefs life was like with Steadman in charge. |

He's pretty much just a name to me. He was involved in a lot of Chiefs ineptitude, but had the fortune of doing it in an era when the only coverage was fawning newspapers and TV stations. So I guess I'll just shrug and wish his family well.

He was the GM for both Super Bowl teams, was he not? I know he eventually took on the role of president but I thought he was the GM during the 60s too.

Steadman's focus was business. Stram was the football brain behind the championships and many of the key players were found and signed by Lloyd Wells, the legendary scout.
