Joe Montana has drawn a line in the sand and chosen sides
No mention of KC at all. .
See you in Miami Joe |

Kewl story. He's a bit of a laughing stock among the media. He asks for money for each interview... I bet times are tough.

The first game I actually watched was 49ers/Bengals Super Bowl when Montana hit Taylor for the win (John Candy game). It wasnt long after that DeBerg became the Chiefs QB and we went to the playoffs, I remember being young enough that I thought the words "wild card" sounded cool. "The Chiefs are the WILD CARD. That's awesome!!" Maybe I even equated it with Uno. I remember losing to Marino in Miami, and feeling like I had been gypped. Didn't realize at the time I needed to get used to that feeling. Kevin Harlan was THE voice of the Chiefs on 101.1 the Fox, and I liked the Chiefs well enough. I started playing Madden football on Super Nintendo, and Tecmo Bowl on the regular Nintendo...and then we got Joe. And Marcus. And I got hit with that fevah. We went to the AFC Championship. And Joe got hit with a helmet-to-helmet that was so brutal it wouldn't just be a penalty, someone would've been ejected and fined. I figured we'd be back the next year, we had JOE!!! And we didn't. And so Bono became the starter...and we didn't. Then came the Gannon/Grbac years...and we didn't. Then Vermeil gave us real hope...but it was such a horrid putrid defense, and no real WRs on offense...so we didn't. And Herm...no duh, we didn't. The Pioli years...and we didn't... So Alex Smith came, and I was conditioned not to get my hopes up for another 49er retread, because I had been seeing that same show my whole life. And now? It's MAHOMES. |

Mahomes in 4 playoff games:
1,188 Yards 11 TD 0 INT 115.2 Rating 62.7 Comp% 125 Rushing Yards 2 Rushing TDs 3-1 W/L Joe Montana in 4 SBs: 1,142 Yards 11 TD 0 INT 127.8 Rating 68.0 Comp% 105 Rushing Yards 2 Rushing TDs 4-0 W/L I should have put this here instead of spazzing out and making an entire thread. Anyway I think the resemblance is amazing. |

Joe Montana gave me three great unforgetable Chief's moments: the Monday Night Miracle in Denver, the playoff win against the Steelers with a great TD pass to win and the comeback against the Houston Oilers in the divisional round.
We just got him after all his Super Bowls. |

And that ended our legitimate Super Bowl aspirations for a year. I'd like to think, without that hit, Joe would've had a better 1994, and possibly returned for 1995, which would've most likely been a Super Bowl year with him as a starter. All moot now, because we have MAHOMES. |
