Chiefs Are you less excited about football than you used to be?

Silock · 08-10-2015, 02:30 AM

I am. I think it's the constant mediocre to shit teams we always field. I felt the same way about baseball until the Royals actually got good. Now, every game is exciting.

This constant losing and underachieving takes a ****ing toll, man. UGH.

GET ME HYPED UP, because it's ****ing difficult to do looking at this roster that just doesn't seem like it's going to do any better than last year, if that.

RobBlake · 08-10-2015, 02:30 AM

wait till week one.

BryanBusby · 08-10-2015, 02:55 AM

I get excited a bit, but nowhere near the level I once did.

Can't really get myself excited until they actually develop a Franchise QB, a young one. Don't give a **** if it comes from the Top 5 or a trashcan, anything.

Can't wait to see the NFL require professional athletes to wear pink.

You got something against boobs?

Earthling · 08-10-2015, 04:29 AM

Well I am probably more excited each passing year. I'm old enough to realize each season might be the last one for this old codger.

Quesadilla Joe · 08-10-2015, 04:43 AM

Yeah. I liked it better when I didn't know that the Broncos were a lock for the playoffs before the season started. The regular season is just 16 long weeks of hoping nobody gets hurt. The only games that matter are the playoff games, it just sucks the fun out of the season.

DaNewGuy · 08-10-2015, 04:47 AM

Naw I still do get excited every season
I'm also a lot younger than most of you guys so I've not witnessed as much heartache first hand lol, my earliest memory of getting letdown was when we lost the 03 divisional round to Indi. I was 10

**Tribal Warfare** · 08-10-2015, 04:50 AM

Honestly, yeah a little disinterested in comparison to the past with the Goodell bullshit and rule changes. It just makes me think that my prediction in 15-20 years the NFL may cease to exist.

**mdchiefsfan** · 08-10-2015, 05:02 AM

Man, I was so pumped for football back in the day. I read everything Chiefs; there weren't enough articles published in a day for me. Then I met CP, and the true fan in me was annihilated. I no longer have that excitement or desire to read the continuous "Mike Catapano is dominating in camp" articles due to the excessive fluff pumped into them.

Thanks, CP!

**wazu** · 08-10-2015, 05:06 AM

For me it's not even close to what I used to feel. I think the last playoff debacle may have done damage that can't be repaired.

FlaChief58 · 08-10-2015, 05:37 AM

Years and years of watching the shit show known as the Chiefs has taken it's toll on me. A SB title however would go a long way toward repairing the damage

-King- · 08-10-2015, 05:41 AM

Nope. I'll still spend a ridiculous amount of hours on Saturdays and Sundays watching it and loving every single second of it.

Mother****erJones · 08-10-2015, 05:44 AM

Not at all. I usually reserve my excitement but not this season. We're stacked but have some key players out a little bit. Hold the fort while they're out and get ready for the postseason. This coaching staff knows Alex has to stop being a pussy and throw it deep more than his usual percentage.

KCUnited · 08-10-2015, 05:47 AM

The Peters pick and Berry's comeback have reeled me back in a bit on the Chiefs, but it's the NFL as a whole that's been trending down for me the last few years. Over saturated, pussified, lack of rivalries, lack of parity. They've created a QB league around a small handful of great QB's. I agree that dvr'ing live sports is lame, but it's really the best way to watch the NFL now with it's rhythm killing whistles, replays and commercial breaks. It's become a bloated product no longer marketed towards me. Now that I'm out of the KC market, I'm not sure how much NFL I'll really pay attention too.

I actually think KC wins a playoff game this year, I wish I was more excited.
