So much fun, never a doubt
5+ weeks ago, I lost my oldest son (of 5 kids, aged 22 yrs) to suicide - posted about it here: https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/show...php?p=17721812
Tonight, I got to watch this game with my 3 youngest kids (daughter just turned 11, and my 2 youngest sons aged 13 & 16) to the end. This was the most fun I've had since our tragedy. Football might just be a game, and it is... And we as fans get WAY too involved with "our team" - but for me and my kids, this game was cathartic. I got to sit back and say "I'm not worried, we have Mahomes" while my kids freaked out. Love my Chiefs. |

I'm sad to say I didn't really believe we'd win in OT. The team looked absolutely spent. Offense had just gotten kicked in the teeth. Defense looked gassed and lost.
When Mahomes hit that pass to D-Hop though, it was clear what was happening.

Condolences and I'm glad the Chiefs were able to give you that. I had a similar personal loss when my mom passed suddenly a few years back and watching her favorite team play each week (and later go on to win it all) was certainly a welcome distraction that year.
The pain does get easier to bear over time. |

Got a snap towards the end of the game from a packer fan. She said something about the game and I replied "meh". She asked, aren't you nervous? I said nah, seen this too many times.
She also started the conversation saying we aren't playing anybody. It's funny. Before, we all knew how it would turn out. Now, we still all know how it's going to turn out. Just the opposite.
