Kansas City sports fans are in a unique position right now, grappling with the sting of playoff losses that feel foreign to a city that has recently tasted success. The Royals' defeat to the Yankees in the ALDS and the Chiefs' Super Bowl loss to the Eagles have left many questioning the very nature of fandom and success.

Is it time for a shift in how we view our teams? The notion of championship or bust seems to be a toxic mindset that can overshadow the joy of the journey. After all, only one team can emerge victorious each season, and the rest are left to reflect on what could have been.

What do you think? Is it possible to find joy in the process rather than just the end result? How do you cope with the disappointment of a playoff loss? Do you believe that the bonds forged through shared experiences and the thrill of the game can outweigh the disappointment of not winning it all?

Moreover, with the Royals' recent playoff appearances after a long drought, should fans be more appreciative of the journey rather than fixating solely on the championship?

Let’s dive into this discussion. Share your thoughts, experiences, and any bold predictions for the future of Kansas City sports. Are we on the brink of a new era of success, or should we brace ourselves for more ups and downs?
