I like football. I like the Cowboys (I'm from Texas, what do you expect?). I think that football brings out a very animalistic side. The games get you excited in a way that very few sports can. This is one of the reasons I like seeing games. I yell, I get mad, I get excited; it's awesome.
But now I read that the KC Chiefs have added a rule to their "Code of Conduct" that to me, is very ridiculous. For those of you that don't know, the Chiefs are an NFL football team that apparently play in an old folk's home. They have a list of rules that they expect their fans to comply with. These rules are meant to keep things orderly and not fun. It's working.
The new thing is a rule that prohibits "standing" at games as to not obstruct the view from other fans. Look...it's a "cute" idea but COME ON, THIS IS FOOTBALL! This isn't a sport about manners, if it was, the players would high-five each other, not tackle themselves. F(@#! I mean really???? Why would a team try to censor an experience that is meant to be RAW!
And if that isn't bad enough, they are giving their fans the opportunity to TATTLE on each other by giving them text message capabilities on game day. OH COME ON! Dude, if I wanted to see a quieter sport, I would check out golf (no offense, I like golf too, but let's face it--it IS quieter). What kind of a lame game are the fans supposed to expect?
"Reginald I do believe I see someone smiling? Is that allowed? I don't believe it is...I'm going to TEXT someone to tell that man to stop! The nerve of someone smiling at the game. (pause) This tea is delicious by the way!"
KC Chiefs, you need to lighten up and let your fans be like ANY other NFL fan....you know, like "fun" fans, the kind that like to have fun?!
