I might be out of the loop on a joke but why are they the "chieves"

mattufford.bsky.social•34 days ago

merely a personal preference. an extension of the way I pluralize Toronto Maple Leaves

problematicotter.bsky.social•34 days ago

I like this, partly because it sounds funny and also because it probably annoys the hell out of Chiefs fans. Two birds, one stone

roljamas.bsky.social•34 days ago

As a fan, I like to pronounce it like “Chives”

ams-ksu.bsky.social•34 days ago

I'm a (casual, only ever been to one game, own no team apparel) Chiefs fan, and I think Chieves is funny. (Chefs is also funny, especially when they make any mistake.)

andrew.mcguiregis.com•34 days ago

Great googly-moogly!

ams-ksu.bsky.social•34 days ago

I don't know if other fanbases feel the same way about it, but it's an absolutely classic commercial, only half a rung below all-time Christmas favorites like Hershey's Kisses Carol of the Bells, Corona O Christmas Tree, and M&Ms "He does exist! They do exist!"

yogurtdaddy.bsky.social•34 days ago

As a fan, I love it but also call them the Chefs at all opportunities because it’s sports who cares

moonhippo.bsky.social•33 days ago

Thank you I shall now call them the Chefs….

Great googily-moogily

gaknar.bsky.social•34 days ago

I mean, our favorite joke for the last 30 years has been "Who are the Chefs?", but ok.

madman731.bsky.social•29 days ago

I'm a diehard fan and I think it's hilarious, also I remember this great commercial https://youtu.be/Nmgice3ieZ4?si=1llVgAaAp9KkJoJ_

nattyboh.bsky.social•34 days ago

Oh man. I needed this laugh today

michaelehayden.bsky.social•34 days ago

As a jets fan, your numbers here look solid

hawkamo.com•34 days ago

I love my serious adjacent team!

slemonadestand.bsky.social•34 days ago

I’m a Falcons fan who prays to the new and old gods. They still aren’t listening.

brianchang.bsky.social•33 days ago

Are the chiefs actually serious or did they get one hire and one draft pick right?

brianchang.bsky.social•33 days ago

Sort of a chicken-or-egg question, but I know some people (I might be one of them) start applying themselves if things go well, but kind of ghost if things go poorly

luckie-reubs.bsky.social•33 days ago

I remember when they hired Reid and I thought, "Great, the team I've watched come up short so many times is hiring a guy who just got let go because he kept coming up short."

I think they did catch lightning in a bottle, but that doesn't mean they couldn't get serious along the way.

chedmoney.bsky.social•33 days ago

They truly got serious when they hired Spags

harrisoncklee.bsky.social•34 days ago

The most serious the AFC South has ever been was Jim Irsay gleefully running point on getting rid of Dan Snyder

nostaticatall.bsky.social•34 days ago

only good thing an irsay has ever done

geoganggang.bsky.social•34 days ago

100% broken clock situation on that one

mhiers.bsky.social•34 days ago

Literally couldn’t remember the 4th team in the AFC south until the Irsay comment.

ilovepets420.bsky.social•34 days ago

As a lifelong Baltimore homer, that description of the 'Manders is spot on. Legit happy for them to have a fun team at watch at long last

brozilla.bsky.social•34 days ago

I feel like the bears are little more serious after the latest hire.

jessejames61.bsky.social•34 days ago

As a colts fan…….fair

mattfromchicago.bsky.social•34 days ago

Honestly went very easy on the Bears

snchalmers.bsky.social•34 days ago

How are they not Toilet Buffoons of Failson City

mattufford.bsky.social•34 days ago

15 years ago I was pointing out that Jay Cutler is the best quarterback in Bears history … and it’s still true (unless you make the case for Caleb after one season, which is a different kind of pathetic).

snchalmers.bsky.social•34 days ago

I do always think of George as a Failson. And Michael before him

kaiserbrown.bsky.social•34 days ago

It's been nice being a Patriots fan and not being a serious team. Actually relaxing!

triednothing.bsky.social•34 days ago

Too much advanced analytics here

gaknar.bsky.social•34 days ago

This is the type of quantitative analysis I crave

ajharrison.bsky.social•34 days ago

But are the Seahawks also looking to buy on Serious St.?? If so, watch out now!

moonhippo.bsky.social•33 days ago

In a few years maybe if the prices drop….

madman731.bsky.social•34 days ago

Go Chieves! 😂

billygomila.bsky.social•33 days ago

At least the Saints just went full max on all the cards while Drew was alive

cruncharoo.bsky.social•34 days ago

Far too kind to the Bears

seansthumbs.bsky.social•34 days ago

📌 This is great, thanks! 😂

adsavestheday.bsky.social•34 days ago

🤣🤣🤣 AND 🤔🤔🤔

peacediva.bsky.social•34 days ago

The Commanders finally got rid of the Snyder Curse. The DMV rejoices. Praise the Lord!!!

eugenebwhitaker.bsky.social•33 days ago

The washington football got lucky to suck in a year they could draft a great quarterback...let's see what they do in a full off season and how serious they are

bradlobdell.bsky.social•33 days ago

“Can you crunch those numbers again?” Michael Scott

theroyalbob.bsky.social•34 days ago

Went a little easy on the Giants.

thisphillyfan.bsky.social•34 days ago

I am tickled by having it pointed out that it should be "Chieves."

regensbloggerin.bsky.social•34 days ago

1 Chief
2 Chieves

bigfatbartolocolon.bsky.social•34 days ago

"The Seriousness of the South runs through Tampa Bay" I say as my granddaughter hands me pudding laced with my nighttime pills

bradcummings.bsky.social•34 days ago

'In the parking lot of Serious Depot'...that's funny.

ekbroiler.bsky.social•34 days ago

i'm at the krustyburger with all the other giants fans and we're nodding and crying

coachmcculley.bsky.social•34 days ago

Weenie Hut Jr*

susanscandiffio.bsky.social•34 days ago

And if you're like the three Giants' fans in my house, you're probably enraged that either the Commanders or Eagles are going to end up in the finals.

halvybuckets.bsky.social•34 days ago

Did the Pittsburgh Pirates cease to exist? How did the Jets take their crown away?

hazenm.bsky.social•34 days ago

I loved how the Vikings are described as serious…AND PURPLE! 😂❤️

robpollard45.bsky.social•34 days ago

How did you get through this whole, funny, analysis and not use, "Desperate, But Not Serious" at least once?

Could apply to the Jets, the Bears, the Cowboys...

brownsfansince79.bsky.social•34 days ago

Nailed the Browns.

jeffemeral.bsky.social•34 days ago

In-Season Hard Knocks really did a fantastic job of showcasing how impressively run of an organization the Baltimore Ravens is.

Very hard not to root for those guys moving forward

fivepoundbag.bsky.social•34 days ago

the McEnroe Scale

axelhoyle.bsky.social•34 days ago

thank you for taking the Giants more seriously than joe schoen does

jasper33.bsky.social•34 days ago

On the few occasions the Cardinals have approached seriousness the Bidwell family has furiously rectified that by re-upping their commitment to incompetence
