“so this was the context on why 99% of the talking heads wanted them to 3 peat so bad.. oh well,” one fan said.
“I love how The Eagles ruin this little cute story lmao,” a second fan added.
“I’ve never seen a team get dogged so much for going to 3 straight Super Bowls and being closest in history to anyone to get 3 in a row. The amount of “fail” or “cope” comments is funny, how many have anyone else’s teams won or been to in a row, or recently?? You can’t expect a team to win them all, I’d say 3/5 years is pretty good. Keep up the jealousy, everyone wants to be KC so bad,” a third fan wrote.
“So, a documentary on how to come up short of history? Got it,” a fourth fan stated of the Kansas City Chiefs.
“ESPN has an affair with the Chiefs,” a fifth fan commented.
“Imagine being so confident the Chiefs were gonna 3peat, ya started filming an in-season docuseries on a team….then they get absolutely Curb-stomped and you invested so much in the project ya have to release it anyway. Without the Threepeat. Hilarious,” one final fan said.
