Being a fan of a sports team requires an insane amount of dedication and resiliency. Often, it even requires some self-deception. Above all else, fans want to believe in their guys — that they are better than everyone else.
That’s the beauty of sports — in the offseason, hope springs eternal. A true football fan has the ability to convince himself or herself that an undrafted free agent will put up a thousand receiving yards and make the Pro Bowl in his rookie year.
This is especially true of Kansas City Chiefs fans.
