Okay, let's be real. Figuring out what channel the Chiefs game is on feels like a weekly Olympic sport.
Is it on CBS? Maybe Fox? Wait, is it a Thursday Night Football game on Amazon Prime Video again? My brain hurts just thinking about it.
And don't even get me started on local channels versus national broadcasts. It's like they *want* us to miss the kickoff!
The Great Channel Conspiracy (Maybe)
I have a theory. A slightly unhinged, probably wrong, but *definitely* entertaining theory.
Networks deliberately make it confusing to watch the Chiefs. Hear me out!
Think about it: We spend hours scouring the internet, triple-checking TV listings, and begging our tech-savvy neighbors for help. All that frantic energy boosts engagement!
Plus, the stress of the pre-game channel search just makes that first touchdown feel *so* much sweeter. It's marketing genius, I tell you!
Is it Just Me? Probably Not.
I can’t be the only one who finds this whole thing ridiculous, right?
It’s like a scavenger hunt, except the prize is watching Patrick Mahomes work his magic.
And sometimes, the clues are hidden behind a paywall or a streaming service I’ve never even heard of. Ugh!
My "Unpopular" Opinion
Okay, prepare yourselves. This might be controversial.
I think all Chiefs games should be on... (wait for it)...
...Public Access Television!
Hear me out again! Free for everyone. No subscriptions. No confusing channel guides. Just pure, unadulterated football joy.
I know, I know. It'll never happen. But a girl can dream, can’t she?
Maybe then I could finally relax on game day and stop feeling like I’m defusing a bomb just to watch my team play. Besides, who *wouldn't* want to see Andy Reid's magnificent mustache in glorious, slightly fuzzy, public access quality?
The Eternal Search
Until my public access dream comes true, I'll keep fighting the good fight. I will tirelessly search for the correct channel each week.
I'll brave the TV guides, the streaming services, and the conflicting information.
For the Chiefs, I’ll do anything. (Except maybe pay extra for a channel I’ll only use for three hours a week).
So, next time you're frantically Googling "What channel is the Chiefs game on?", just remember, you're not alone.
We’re all in this together. A confused, slightly exasperated, but ultimately loyal fanbase.
And if all else fails, there's always the radio. At least they can't hide that behind a paywall... yet.
Go Chiefs! And may the channel gods be ever in your favor.
