The dumbest thing is they call the fanbase and its environs “Chiefs Kingdom”.

Shouldn’t it be “Chiefdom”?

I’m guessing that the Natives should win over a bunch of Claim Jumpers if PCness is to prevail.

Yeah, that irritates me. The thing is, I’ve been following tbe Chiefs since the 80s, and I never heard anything about “Chiefs Kingdom” until about 5 years ago.

...and what about Indiana? Half the States are named after Indian tribes.

Time to be done with Political Correctness. It’s obsolete. It’s run its course. It needs to go the way of the AMC Gremlin.

Well I don’t know how many folks in Missouri are carrying Indian blood or black blood or any other blood. All I’ll say is “Go Chiefs”. If you don’t like that you can kiss My MISSOURA! ASS!

Hey the Gremlin was/is kind of ‘cute’. Same cannot be said of pc. I hope the Chiefs scalp the niners.
