Painful Millenium

Those who know me well realize that I am an eternal optimist. Well I'm going to go against my nature and re-walk the sorrowful, tear-filled path that has been this Millenium.


January 2000--I hear a crash. Jumping out of bed I realize someone is in my bedroom. Before I can move a baseball bat hits me squarely in the jaw. Unfortunately, it doesn't knock me out, but rather ensures that I feel each and every blow to my legs, back and head. Blood is everywhere. I can't breathe. I am being dragged. It's all over. The Chiefs lost. If they win they're in and they lost. They were up 24 to nothing and they lost. They never lose at home and they lost. Seattle blew it meaning all we have to do is win and we lost. A pathetic drunken kicker for the Raiders caused us to lose. The Chiefs won more games in the 90s than any other team, but the 2000s were going to be different....for the worse. The only way the Chiefs loss could be worse is if the St. Louis Rams won the Super Bowl.....and they did.



October 2006--The Royals no longer have 1985. A very pathetic St. Louis Cardinals team had every team in its path roll over and die....forcing poor Kansas City kids in CoMO to deal with even more STL arrogance.

December 2007--I am slamming my head against a wall after seeing a less-deserving kansas football team is invited to the Orange Bowl, while the team that beat them is left out.

April 2008--Memphis chokes giving up a huge lead with under 2 minutes left.....to hand the kU jayhawks a championship....and making all Kansas City Missourians want to crawl under a rock for the entire year as Missourians are reminded every waking (more like nightmarish) second that kansas won it all.

This post was going to be much more in-depth, but I gave up on it as suicidal thoughts kept growing stronger.......looks like all eggs are in the Missouri Tiger Football basket!
