MNF 11/12/12 - tune in to watch historic effort of futility

Well, the good part is that maybe KC will be known for something other than epic IKYABWAI smack. Not sure what the bad part is but I suspect we'll find out after tonight.
That said, watch the Queefs show up and eke out a short lived lead.

The Kansas City Star
More than eight decades ago, one of the most inept teams in pro football history took the field.
It couldn’t compete financially with teams in larger cities, so it had shut down for a season to regroup. When the Buffalo Bisons returned in 1929, they were so bad that the franchise folded for good after the season.
Coached by a native Kansan and former Kansas State player, the 1929 Bisons didn’t hold a lead at any point until their season finale, a streak of eight consecutive games.
Such futility went unmatched in the NFL for 83 years. Until now.
Your 2012 Kansas City Chiefs will own the dubious distinction alone — nine full games without a lead in regulation — unless they can jump ahead at any point in Monday night’s game against the Steelers in Pittsburgh.
If the Chiefs don’t take a lead, the Bisons, and coach Al Jolley, will be erased from the record book.
