Update: Holy Crap They Did It!

This will be short and sweet and to the point: On Sunday, 2-2-20, the Chiefs won the Super Bowl!!!

When they were down 10 halfway through the 4th quarter I was almost ready to make my concession speech on Facebook and say what a great ride this has been, but then The GOAT hit Tyreek Hill deep and then the comeback was on. I was fighting a cold, had a throbbing headache and dead tired, so my celebrating was light (I'm not a partier anyway) but I was almost, once again, crying grown man tears and I took a sigh of relief similar to Clark Griswold at the end of Christmas Vacation (deep breath....they did it)

I had friends and family who are fans of rival reams or teams I loathe, they texted me to congratulate me and I got more Facebook wall posts than I have since my birthday.

I always joked that I wondered what would happen first, the Chiefs win the Super bowl or I get married first. Well, the Chiefs finally did it but marriage is nowhere in sight.

Chiefs. 50 years after their only Super Bowl trophy, in the 100th season, brought the Lombardi trophy home. It was awesome, and memories I'll never forget, and I hope it's not another 50 years before they win another one!
