Happy Father's Day

If you're anything like me, then you're a Chiefs fan because your Dad told you so at the earliest point you can remember. Growing up, he was always the quarterback, referee and post-game cook (and yes, I dominated Chris in the receiving game as I always won the physical battle and he couldn't match my moxie).

So, Happy Father's Day to all of you out there, especially to our newest father.

I'm in and out today but we'll be talking wide receivers here shortly.

Apparently, photographers couldn’t get their hands on a real Chiefs helmet in the 70’s.

My dad was a Giants fan

He loved Y.A. Tittle. God, he could go on and on about how great he could be if only the Giants could block for him.

He didn’t think the AFL would ever really make it, but he liked the idea of KC having a team.

Back in the days before they numbered the Super Bowls, when KC made its first appearance against the Packers, he sent me to school and told me to offer anybody and everybody the Chiefs plus 7 1/2 points. I made 14 bets for a total of $3.50. None of those bastards in my 3rd grade class ever paid up.

Thanks Dad.

My dad had no idea about football, but god rest his sould he tried.

After every football game I played and, he went to all of them, I woild get quizzed on what happened. Afetr a few years he actually was undrestanding the game. He actually liked the Chiefs because I did.
