come on

im new on here so take it easy on me.

Chiefs fans are in my opinion the best fans in the world, Arrowhead Stadium is my favorite place to go because the fans are great and every home game they're loud and it makes the game exciting.

There have been some fantastic chiefs teams over the years..teams with lenny dawson, buck buchanan, otis taylor, willie lanier, bobby bell, emmitt thomas, joe delaney, christian okoye, ed podolak, marcus allen, joe montana, john alt, kimble anders, tony richardson, johnny robinson, james hasty, kevin ross, albert lewis, dale carter, deron cherry, jan stanerud, nick lowery, art still, neil smith, derrick thomas, ed budde, jim tyrer, brian waters, will shields, willie roaf, john tait, dante hall, tony gonzalez, priest holmes, trent green, and new greats including eric berry, tamba hali, derrick johnson, jamaal charles, dwayne bowe, and brandon flowers.

anyways, im a huge Chiefs fan and there is no way im giving up on this season yet. Chiefs fans care so much every year but are already giving up on a team that is 0-2 and are wanting to "suck for luck" this team has talent they just arent executing and penalties/turnovers are killling us.

IF we can somehow pull of the upset in San Diego against one of the most high powered offenses in the league we could be at 1-2 then 2 winnable games after that with the Vikings at home and then At Indy week 3 where we could be sitting at 3-2 and at the top of the division. maybe im too optimistic but i dont want to lose games for a draft pick, i want the playoffs and to finally win a playoff game.

what do you guys think?

Welcome!

Just a few things since you are new here. Try to break your paragraph into multiple paragraphs so it is easier to read. Also, this is pretty short for being a fanpost. Try to add more depth to your posts so the people who work hard on a lot of information don’t get buried by smaller posts.

I agree with you though in that I don’t want to lose games just to get a high draft pick. I want the Chiefs to go out and “try” to compete in every game.

Here is a post that is very detailed and easy to read:

Sweet

Other then the super long paragraph I love the enthusiasm.

A couple losses even bad losses cannot break Chiefs fandom!

Those people were never Chiefs fans

They are what you call Bandwagon fans…they jumped on us when we had a 10-6 season and playoffs. Now they ready to jump off!

Bandwagon fans are the worst ever! To me they have no soul! No pride! No loyalty!

Sitting on the edge, with one buttcheek on the bandwagon...

its no wonder they fell off after the first couple bumps.
The Chiefs have gone through the perfect storm of trouble but a nice division game could be just what the doctor ordered.

Yep

A game where none has us to win? Yeah I’ll say that’ll open some eyes back up. People forget the season is still so young, and if we get a win against SD we have a couple of easier teams for the next two weeks.

Welcome DT

Be careful around here. There are a lot of counterfeit fans running around. They are screaming for new coaches, players and a new GM etc. Don’t let’em fool ya. Keep the faith baby, and remember—Don’t take wooden nickels from counterfeits.

And misspelling "Chiefs" is sure tipoff!

Barf.

So you are a better fan than me because you can show blind faith in a team who hasn’t won consistantly in well over a decade. Ok, whatever. There is so much great football being played this year and by pointing out we have been by far the worst team this year makes me a big fan? No, it shows I obviously have a higher football IQ than you.

Agree,just because you want this team to lose for long term success doesn’t mean you are a bad fan it means you are tired of everyone else having a franchise qb while were stuck with 2nd stringers.I would love to go back to 97 and see the suck for manning crowd i bet they feel pretty good about goin 2-14 that year

Chiefs shock the Chargers and notch their first win.

would of ≠ would've

hope you're right, Prof!

I think they shocked the Chargers, but gift-wrapped another win for the opposition.

Still, if I’m gonna watch the movie, I need to suspend my disbelief.

by hmills110 on Sep 25, 2011 9:06 PM CDT up reply actions

A win today would be huge

I think we can compete with the Chargers today, Gates is out and I dont think Malcom Floyd is playing. Those are 2 key players in their offense, we can stop mathews tolbert will be tough though…the cry baby rivers is always tough. a win would put everyone back on the chiefs bandwagon

its just amazing how the perception has changed, I get it, we were blown out by the bills and lions

but my gosh, you had tom waddle saying that jamie dukes taunted him into picking the chiefs last week and went on and on and on about how crazy of a pick that was. Im sorry, but to me, the lions over the chiefs wouldnt be a sure thing this week…even after the 40 pt thrashing. I just cant believe how now its like “how could you pick the chiefs?”…we are 2 games removed from a division title. meh

good post

however, there is an incorrect sentence in there…here i’ll fix it for you:
