    4. What Hall of Fame Player did the Chiefs draft in the first round of the 1965 draft?

    5. What action taken by the NFL pissed off original Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt such that he decided to start a rival league and form the AFL?

    7. When the Dallas Texans moved to KC, a fan vote was held to pick a new nickname for the team. The name that got the most votes was rejected by the owner of the team. What was that name? In other words, what could this team have been known as all these years.?

    8. Which former Chiefs HC was from the same home town as legendary Michigan HC Bo Schembechler?

    5. What action taken by the NFL pissed off original Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt such that he decided to start a rival league and form the AFL?

    Dallas franchise awarded to Cowboys and not him

    [b]That is sorta right, though I think it was backward. Hunt asked the NFL to expand into Dallas. The NFL didn't want to expand at that time. Then Hunt et al formed the AFL because the NFL refused expansion. As a result of the creation of the AFL, the NFL said "shit, maybe we better expand" and put franchises in Dallas and Minnesota...which were both markets the AFL wanted. The NFL did that to try to fuck up the AFL. It sorta worked. The planned Minnesota AFL team was removed and awarded to Oakland. The Dallas Texans did play in Dallas for a couple of years before deciding to move to KC...which was actually not Hunt's first choice. See my double bonus question.[/b]
