The curse shall be lifted, No Show Bowe and Chiefs trounce Cowboys

Fist i feel a little background is in order. I grew up a military brat in the 60's and 70's mostly in Alabama,Alaska and Tennessee. I played high school football QB, and SS on the baseball team. Although scholarships came my way for football i decided to sign and play minor league baseball since injury probabilities are less in baseball. Well 2 years in and 3rd game out of the instructional leagues i blew out a knee done and done. My football fandom has always been 2 fold, college has been and always will be ROLL TIDE. When you grow up in Bears shadow(Bear Bryant for those who don't know)you live and breath the Tide. Because Alabama has no professional sports teams(except the Tide,LOL)my first and most memorable experience was a game in 1971 at Texas Stadium and the Boys. So i've gone through the last 40 years as a Cowboy fan. That all changed during the spring training 2012 and upon my arrival at Chiefs training camp in St Joseph(yes i reside in St Joe). I was intrigued by the team and the cult like following they had and the history of the team(originally from Dallas). So i jumped onto the interweb and located a site called Arrowhead Pride and daily read and learned from the great fan base what being a real fan is about. And now the rest of the story. As the 2012 season approached and i had decided that the wanna be Cowboy fans and team were not to my liking I hitched my fan wagon to the Kansas City Chiefs along with all the great AP faithful although for a long time i was only a reader as i was learning to be a fan. As you are all aware last year was very tough for me to swallow as a brand new fan. But the more i read on AP and learned from all the writing and posting and banner flying, wow what a unique and wonderful fan base, i'm in. As the year went on and we learned that Spongehead Fatpants really didn't know anything, the fans revolted and changes were made in whole. In january i believe i joined AP and began commenting here and there to see how i was accepted. I made dumb comments from time to time but still no backlash or hate just real comments back telling me why i was thought to be wrong. I became hooked on AP and to this day i still read everything,even the negative stuff from Aiken and Saints but i enjoy the comments from them because they make me think. This is one of the reasons i love AP you can actually have a real sports conversation with multiple people at the same time and grow as a Chiefs fan and an aspiring writer at the same time. Now i am a Chiefs fan 100% and i believe in the whole thing from the fans to the team trainers to the owner to the coaches(best staff in the NFL in MHO). I have a very comfortable feeling about Sunday at Arrowhead,the fans will return to the stadium in droves,the players will feed off the fans and the Cowboys will be amazed that this is the Chiefs a 2-14 catastrophe from last year. We may not win every game but the Chiefs will compete for 60 minutes every time they take the field,of this i have no doubt. As for the curse being lifted i am a new fan and was in the closet so to speak last year,so i thought if i came out and declared my allegiance to the Chiefs maybe we could lift the curse. Beings i am a Tide fan i am sure you are all wondering about No Show Bowe right? Well here it is,when he was a LSU(loser state university)we all called him that because he was lazy and never showed up until the game was settled. I never have been a Bowe fan because he will not step up and be a true number one receiver for this team. I believe in my heart that Hemmingway, McCluster and Avery will all have better seasons than Bowe does.I really feel giving Bowe that large contract was a mistake and we unfortunately won't see much of him this year as he takes to many plays off and is more worried about his socks and pants than hustling every play. Would love for MN to watch the all 22 and tell us how many plays he is loafing on. Now i'm not saying Dallas is a weak teak because they are not, but i am saying that with the crowd,Alex and the defense we have we will beta them boys handily. CHIEFS 31 AND DALLAS 21 GO CHIEFS
