Livingston, Kenney, that other guy, DeBerg, that guy from Seattle, Grbac, Green, Thigpen, Cassell, Smith ..... Every season hoping for a SB. Several seasons actually believing it. Let down every year. Not this year. I'd cut Smith & Green some slack. However, how's this for a string of QBs .....? 1) Damon Huard; 2) Tyler Thigpen; 3) Brodie Croyle; 4) Tyler Palko; 5) Matt Cassell; 6) Brady Quinn; 7) Kyle Orton. The QB lineage above just boggles my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm dead inside, so getting that close is something... You know when Andy was hired that Clark told him how much winning that trophy would mean. I think selflesslly he just estatic to give that gift to the guy who hired him. But I think what really drives Andy is getting that next win. He will have checked every box with that.

artsy 1,137 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 I didn't physically cry, but on the inside I felt all these weird emotions. Sorta like when my first child was born..cant really explain it. I'm 48, been a fan since I was 8. 3 yrs ago I had already accepted the fact that I would die and never see my favorite team in Superbowl. Yesterday was like being freed some weird mental bondage that I've been in since that infamous elliot missed kick. Yesterday, I was finally free. Go chiefs.

dhitter 1,424 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I was at home and both my sons were there. Incredible moment and yes we all teared up when Clark and Andy hoisted the Lamar Hunt trophy. What a sight!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The QB lineage above just boggles my mind. I didn't list their names to put them down. Not at all. I was a fan of every one. Green, in particular, was a SB quality QB and would have a ring if KC had a defense in 2003. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"If the dog hadn't stopped to piss, he'd have caught the rabbit." But yeah, I think you are right. Green and the 2003 offense were good enough to get there. But we have seen over and over that well balanced teams are the ones that get there, with rare exceptions. Our only SB championship we had both a very good offense along with a world shattering defense. Burpo The Mad Clown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a lot of us. Emotions are more easily and honestly expressed when we get old. No point in trying to put on an unemotional face. We have more years of pent up disappointments and unfulfilled dreams to let go of when something like this happens. After all, being a fan is, by definition, something that happens at the level of emotions, not reason. Plus, we have to consider the senility aspect as well. ⌛️ oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West 6,713 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Frankly, There were really only 4-5 seasons where the SB was a real possibility... We are living in a very different time. w oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
