I have watched a lot of NFL Football going back to 1985. Back in those days I was actually a Dolphins fan as Dan Marino was my favorite player. But when I started playing football in 1988, I became a Chiefs fan.

They had Flames color jerseys. They also played similar style to my highscool team. So Christian Okoye and Martyball with Derrick Thomas on defence appealed to me....and nobody else. Also in Western Canada there were a few Broncos fans with Elway in his heyday. The Raiders who were always popular especially with South Central LA hip hop gangster culture emerging. Than you had the Seahawks who geographically were the closest team. So being a Chiefs fan made for being a contrarian.

They actually had a good run after being a largely forgettable franchise in the 70's and 80's. But mediocre QB's faltered in the playoffs and old Joe Montana froze up in Buffalo in the 94 AFC Championship game.

They disappeared for a few years save a great offence under Vermeil but an awful defence. Than there was the Pilli disaster in which they really had no clue at QB. I was happy the day they hired Andy Reid. They started taking QB serious and Alex Smith played well. But these past two years with Mahomes have been great. I still can't believe he is the Chiefs QB. Seems too good to be true.

Congrats to the Titans fans here on their teams run. Had they won today they would have one of the great playoff runs of all time considering who they had to go thru.

Super bowl baby!!!
