The Kansas City Chiefs were found in 1960 by Lamar Hunt, who was a charter member of the AFC (American Football Conference). The chiefs where originally founded as the Dallas Texans but then moved three years later to Kansas City and assumed the current name of the chiefs. Lamar Hunt’s team played Vince Lombardi’s Green Bay Packers in Super bowl one. Although the Chiefs lost the game they still had the AFC championship trophy named after their great founded Lamar Hunt after the AFC and the NFC (national football conference) combined to make the National Football League (NFL) during the AFC-NFC merger in 1970.
Since this time the chiefs have been to a two super bowls, they won super bowl four against the Minnesota Vikings, and have had several playoff appearances. Throughout the years the chiefs have had many great teams, players, and coaches. We have had hall of famers, draft busts, and just about every form of drama that an NFL team could have. Despite all the past troubles the chiefs are recognized as one the most classy and well respected teams in the league.
The chiefs have a long history so there is much to talk about with them. I have laid the ground work but in the following article lies all of the chiefs history from Super Bowl 1 to the present day chiefs team. Enjoy the article chiefs fans. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kansas_City_Chiefs
