Life How did 2016 treat you? - Page 2

If 2016 was a Chiefs quarterback, which quarterback would it be?

Good year, bad year, or something in between?

Trent Green year for me. Some highs and lows.
Started the year off with my grandpa passing away suddenly on January 4th, which sucked for my family. Things were meh for me up until the summer when I transferred to KU, which is something I have always wanted to do. Then shit started going uphill and in a hurry. Met my first Planeteer and now good friend, the legendary Chiefspants while I was there in June. Can't really complain about anything on my end since, which I will appreciate for as long as it goes.

I've had a very Alex Smith year. Was mostly good, with a few bad times. But I was carried through both the good and bad by my team.

Croyle year for sure. Started off with a back injury and ended with another back injury. Somewhere in between I ended a 3 year relationship. There was some good in there somewhere though, I think

I had a Blake bortles kinda year. Lots and accolades at the beginning but ended up with questions going into 2017. May change teams next year.

It was a fantastic year, Lenny the cool.

Drove out to the east coast in the spring on a three week trip visiting family in NJ and Virginia then Florida golfing.

Late summer to Billings and Missoula, Montana for a family reunion.

Back to Virginia in October and just returned from a Texas Christmas with the grandkids.

Best year ever.

My son was born. Regardless of anything else, that made this year a 10.

Pablo · 12-29-2016, 09:59 AM

Got a new job and spent way, way too much time working. The first 8 months were mostly work and no play of any sort. Not my favorite. My son was born in September, so the last 4 months have been spectacular. He makes it a 10 and 2016 is my favorite year I've been alive because of him.

**Iowanian** · 12-29-2016, 10:03 AM

This year has been an absolute grind. I've never been as mentally tired at the end of a year as I am today. I feel like Rocky Balboa(Rocky II) because I'm the champ now, but I've taken a damn beating to get it.

If I'm Trent Green for 16, I put up great numbers, but I took a couple of helmet-helmet shots along the year. Maybe on a little rest I'll call it a Montana year...with elbow bursitis and water on the knee...but comeback wins in prime time. It feels like a long time ago, but I even had dinner with the esteemed Rainman in April.

I took the family on a week long vacation in the summer, and haven't had a day off since. I'm taking tomorrow on principle.

A lot of good things happened along the way, we've avoided major catastrophe. Everyone is essentially healthy, so I'm not complaining. I know a lot of people who had Brody Croyle years or worse.

Prison Bitch · 12-29-2016, 10:10 AM

That list is accurate

**** me runnin'

Ugg must have the most elementary of websites. Every website I've ever ordered from wont accept a credit card number with too few or too many digits. This story sounds made up.

Montana year for me. I started a new consulting business that has been fairly successful (I still have my regular job so I'm busy as hell), my family is healthy, and there weren't any major catastrophes in our lives this year. The only thing that keeps it from being a Len Dawson year is that I broke my ankle recently and I'm currently hobbling around on crutches.
