Who’s still mad about 13 seconds?

I was over 13 seconds once the game was over.  Things happen in games.  Life moves on.  

Yes. There is "Life" and then there is "Sports Life." Life moved on as it always does.

 

Sports Life?....that died a little that day and is never coming back. Coaches blew it.

you really think the team comes in here? if so, do you really think the team needs to be reminded? come on man...

 

I think you know what I meant.

 

The outcome of the game is what should motivate them, not listening to some idiot like me on a message board.

Will never get over it, coaching cost everyone a Super Bowl. THAT was the year to get it done and they blew it. There will never be an easier path through the AFC again...

That same coaching made the calls that led the team to go 4/4 with 2 TDs on 4th down.  Without that, the game would have been a blowout.  Coaches put them in position to win.

:D I get it. The whole point to my argument is we the fans don't need to be reminded of it daily. that's what this thread does.

this is a thing I will always have on me (among others, you know the list)

it's a scar

and like any scar, you may not think about it everyday, but when you see it, you remember

it never vanishes completely

Coping mechanism.

 

And that’s not judgment from me. It still stings for me as well and I try to avoid any OT footage.

 

Letting stuff back in your head is how you let it happen again. Obviously that's what the players have to do, but I think when you have an entire fanbase thinking like that it's bad juju.

Mad?  It’s a game.  If months later you are still “mad”, you may want to consider anger management counseling. 

 

I’m angry that I didn’t get to burn a couch in the road. That’s a bucket list item. Torching a couch is something we should have done in college to get it out of my system. Life is full of disappointments…….. 😋

When I was a teenager, I spent an evening listening to the newly released Led Zeppelin Physical Graffiti album in my brother's darkened room (it was his stereo).  I entered a deep trance-like state where I felt that nothing was beyond the comprehension of my expanded consciousness.  And I had a tremendous insight: "Never worry about that which cannot be changed."

 

I shared my new wisdom with a friend who responded with, "Oh, yeah.  My mom says that all the time."

 

Her mom was a typical Buffalo mom from that era: a chubby homemaker who watched a lot of daytime soaps.  She didn't have an intellectual or philosophical bone in her body.  I couldn't imagine her mom saying anything deep or meaningful. 

 

"You mom says what I just said all the time?" I challenged in disbelief.


"Well, she phrases it a little differently: 'No use crying over spilt milk.'"

 

I was devastated!  My great philosophical discovery was nothing more than an old cliche!  

 

And that's what I think about 13 seconds: No use crying over spilt milk.

It doesn't bother me any longer.  Once the Chiefs lost to the Bengals, I was able to live with it.  The team that beat us didn't even get to the Super Bowl and the team that beat them lost the Super Bowl.   It is much easier to live with knowing that.   

 

Had the Chiefs won the Super Bowl, I would still be upset.

I’ve moved past the anger onto regret..

 

It was a tremendous opportunity in a weak year… they could play better and more consistent this year but just run into a superior team in the playoffs or SB  that emerges in 2022..

 

Anyway… can’t do anything about it.. just hope for the best and one before I die..


Yep… still feel the same

I still think Frasier should have been canned, but now we move on.

Why Frasier?  They called time out before each play. You don't think McDermott had input on those two play calls?  And we have listened to two months of nonsense about how important special teams are and why they need to take up roster spots, but yet he fails to communicate to the kicker on what to do at the most crucial moment.  McD has to get better if they are to win it all this year OR Allen simply needs to overcome his coaching shortcomings, like Peyton did with Dungy.

I’m over it, I think it actually motivates everyone to win it all this year though. We are coming out swinging. I can tell by watching preseason that I have never seen a group of guys who were more motivated and ready to win. I’m so pumped. I really felt like KC was the only team im our way and I think the loss of hill is a game changer. Just stay healthy and play our game. If the 13 secs still bothers you, take it out by yelling louder in the stadium this year 👌
