Politics pretty much ruined this professional football season as dudes kneeling captivated armchair pundits and put concussion games in the middle of a divisive American discourse.
Tonight a (somewhat) historic win against a team and a legendary QB who has been aligned with Prez Trump . . . Here's the news round-up and perspective:

Sadly, Kansas City is far, far away from this East Cost competition as locals battle the cold, binging and the ongoing Winter of discontent as they attempt to slog into work tomorrow. Hopefully, more for the morning update . . . STAY TUNED!!!
I think the Dems lost the Super Bowl. Calling for players to kneel was a really stupid move. Totally tone deaf.
ReplyDeleteAgree. Everyone stood up. Trump won the Super Bowl. Which is pretty good for a guy his age.
DeleteTrump won the Super Bowl to to be sure. The snow flakes just can't catch a break even when they have victory in their hands the Democrats manage to blow it. They ruined the victory for the Eagles. Philly should remember this.
Delete^^^Totally stupid post. I didn’t know it was dems VS. repubs in the Super Bowl. Why don’t you kill yourself geezer?
ReplyDeleteI bet that a lot of the Eagles are going to refuse to visit the White House. Why bother visiting the White House when they were obviously against your team.
ReplyDeleteTrump is on the way out. Say bye bye. All you Trumpkins should kill yourselves
ReplyDeleteNah. You lost big, and you continue to lose. :)
DeleteA sports bar will be the closest the Chiefs ever get to a Super Bowl in the next 10 years.
ReplyDelete10:20 might have a point. No body gave Philly a chance.. WAIT Philly won with a Chief QB???? ???
ReplyDeleteIt's not a Chiefs QB if he's not playing for the Chiefs. You douches are the some kind of dumbass who thought Joe Montana was doing anything but picking up a check when he played here. The guy couldn't stand KC.
ReplyDeleteThe chiefs declined his option and sent him packing. Showing what that KC is nothing but a collection of dumb asses.
10:35---Am EX Chiefs QB and EX Asst. Head Coach. Andy Reid got him the job.
ReplyDeleteRelax Drunks. No shit.
ReplyDeleteSomebody changed the photo on the Chiefs wiki page.
ReplyDeleteIt's worth checking out.
Disgruntled fan after seeing Pederson and Foles win the big one?
Oh, and Bruno Mars gets to another Super Bowl before the Chiefs do.
Odds^^^
ReplyDeleteHave to agree with @12:19
ReplyDeleteFor me odds are 100 to 1 that Chiefs will make a Super Bowl in the next 3 to five years. KC would be better off building a dome or a new multipurpose stadium downtown to at least get the crowd here and then maybe some decent arena concerts during the year.
Wow. Nice odds.
ReplyDelete12:49 They have a big problem downtown.
CHIEF'S will be just fine for the future , mainly because of the AFC West sucks , & we got the mahomes on our side , Bitch !!!
ReplyDeleteAlthough I don't claim to fully understand what Exclamation Point Guy's endgame is, I do find his posts rather enjoyable nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteThere was a ball game yesterday? Sorry I quit patronizing overpaid felons and America haters a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteIt this Football Crap finally over till next July?
ReplyDelete@8:07AM Sure you did. That's why you're on a football blog post at 8:07AM. Fucking liar.
ReplyDeleteBrady = Trump
ReplyDeleteFoles = Mueller
