Kansas City News Station Can’t Be Serious With This Tweet About Chiefs
And the award for 'Dumbest Tweet of the Year' goes to...
And you thought Jackson Mahomes would be responsible for the worst Chiefs-related social media post of the weekend.
The Chiefs collapsed in epic fashion Sunday afternoon in their AFC Championship Game loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. It was a stunning upset, considering Kansas City began the 2021 season as the favorite to win Super Bowl LVI and entered the playoffs with the second-best odds of hoisting the Lombardi Trophy.
However, if you were ignorant to all context and only followed Kansas City-based KMBC-TV for your football news, you’d think Sunday’s game at Arrowhead Stadium saw a remarkable Cinderella run fall just short of a storybook ending.
“Against all odds: We were never supposed to be here,” KMBC tweeted. “We were never meant to make it this far. But against all odds, we did. What a season. Thank you for the incredible ride. We will always be Chiefs Kingdom.”
We can’t help but wonder whether Izvestiia ran something similar after the Soviets watched the United States complete the “Miracle on Ice.”
Anyway, the Bengals now can turn their focus toward a Super Bowl LVI matchup with the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium. The Chiefs, meanwhile, must wait at least another season before establishing themselves as the NFL’s new dynasty.
