Otto Greule Jr/Getty ImagesSATIRE ; Being a fan of a team in any sport is sometimes a gut wrenching, hair pulling, fist clenching, 500 curse word per minute ordeal.We seldom sit back and relish what we are seeing because we get so rapped up into what we wish would happen for our team.If all is not going our team's way, someone, usually an official or two is out to get us. The league commissioner is in on it gosh darn it! When all else fails, "SOMEBODY CHEATED DAMMIT and I'm gonna blame everyone who doesn't see 43 Polamalu black jersey
it my way."If on that day, things are going how we planned: "God loves Me, and he must be a fan of my team!"It's fun being a fan becausewe get to live through the moments of whatwe view onthe court,in thepool oron thefield as ifwe're doing the sport ourselves.Heaven only knows the last time we ran or jumped, it was probably followed up with an ice packand a tube of Ben-Gay!I like talking to fans about their teams because thethings they share with you reveal so much about themselves and their egos or insecurities.I was talking to a couple of Kansas City Chief fans the other day and it was like watching a battle of multiple personalities: Bold and confident onone hand, and so terribly insecure and inadequate on the other."Man, we're going to go to the Super Bowl, I can feel it," they yelled.Otto Greule Jr/Getty Images"We got the best running back in the league. Dwayne Bowe is the best wide receiver since Jerry Rice. Arrowhead is the best home field advantage in the league!"Then without warning, they said, "I hope 4 Brett Favre White jersey
Cassel doesn't mess this up. Man, if we lose to the Chargers, we're done. Todd Haley doesn't know what he's doing!"I kind of waited for their heads to start spinning around.I said to them: "Fellas, Kansas City just came through the worst stretch of football the organization has ever seen in its history. They have exceeded all expectations of where they should be at this point in their rebuilding effort."They are seven and four, lead their division and you're getting to watch Jamaal Charles, Dwayne Bowe and Matt Cassel put together record breaking performances the team hasn't witnessed, let alone the fans in Kansas City in quite some time. How can you find anything negative in all of this?"They looked at me and said"C'mon man. This is the Chiefs, don't you remember Marty Ball, Dick Vermeil, the Colts, the Broncos, 13 win seasons and we still lost in the playoffs."AAGGGHH!!I laughed. If it's as if they can't even enjoy the games the way you should be able to enjoy them because they are waiting for all those old ghost to 6 Super Bowl Champions jersey
come out of the closet and slap a dose of reality right in their mugs.It's as if they get too happy, bad luck is gonna hurt the team becausethey'reenjoying the success of the team just a little bit too much.You know the saying, "God don't like ugly," so don't go enjoying all this prosperity.Hey, Kansas City! It's okay to be the front runner. It's okay to be the Bride!Enjoy it.
