The Kansas City Chiefs are like that kid you knew in school whose dad was the principal. I watched part of their Sunday Night Football game versus the Giants. Granted, both teams were 0-2 going into the game, so I guess I shouldn’t have expected to be wow’d. But wow, pretty much every Chiefs game I watch is more evidence that the referees are their 12th player. It just seems like every time KC has their back against the wall, the refs bail them out in one way or another. And the exact same call that saves them ISN’T called when it would benefit the opponent.
Why is that? Why am I just one of thousands, maybe millions, that believe there’s some kind of odd favor given to the Chiefs?
Football is part of the entertainment industry so I guess every story needs a villain. The Chiefs are the villain of the NFL. Kind of like Alabama has been for college football. Without a villain, there can’t be a hero. So I guess we need the Chiefs, don’t we?
