The End of the World is Upon Us

To read many of the comments of late is to think that the Chiefs upcoming 2014 season is dead in the water and they might as well just "mail it in" and Suck For Whoever It Is This Year hope to get a QBotF in next year's draft because we're not about to win anything THIS season. The Secondary has more holes than Swiss cheese, the OLine is a 5-gated turnstile, the QB can't throw the ball more than five feet and there's nobody to catch it even if he could. Jamaal Charles should sue for non-support.

Lies, Lies and Damned Lies!

Get a grip, folks, because the truth is that this year is the same as last year, only more so. This, ladies and gentlemen, is football. This, for better or worse (and it's usually worse) is what we like to call FUN! That's right, kids ... fun! Having a good time despite everything else. Enjoying life, one Sunday (or Thursday or Monday) at a time (except the Bye Week when we can all go back into panic mode). This ... is the NFL.

The game (yes, it's a GAME!) is to be enjoyed, it's an event and entertainment, win OR lose. I know, I know ... it seems we've been through season after losing season with the Chiefs, and sometimes that's true. But sometimes the team actually DOES win on occasion, like ... you know, last year. A 2-14 disaster morphed into an 11-5 semi-success story (depending on who you believe). A 9-0 run and a magical defense to start the season, an unexpected (at the beginning of the year, like totally!) playoff berth, a "near-win" on the road (why is it that when 2 airplanes fly close to each other it's called a Near Miss? shouldn't it be called a Near Hit?) and raised spirits for almost 15 minutes. Come on, you can't tell me that you weren't at least a LITTLE excited at halftime.

Honestly, it's never as bad as you think (although sometimes it's much worse, but still ... ) and while things may not look rosy at the moment, it's only practice, man ... I mean really, are we SUPPOSED to care about preseason games? Do they actually count? No, they don't ... so forget it. Just let it go and move on.

We still have The Dwayne Bowe Show, even if it's being pre-empted for a week by the censors Roger Goodell. We still have DJ, who may play forever. We still have Justin Houston (until we don't) and Dontari Poe and Eric (They Shoot Horses, Don't They?) Berry

Last time it was different. A new HC and a new GM and even a new (recycled) QB! This year it will be the same only more so, different but the same (and all at the same time!) and a myriad of surprises - both pleasant and maybe a few not so pleasant - awaiting us along the road to perdition the Super Bowl. The wheels may fall off the wagon long before we arrive, and KyraKyra may die of dysentery along the way, but damnit this is going to be fun even if it kills us all, so enjoy!

Where's a good PARADEBULATION when you need it? Arrrggg!

Geaux Chiefs!
