The Star will invest in a pair of clothespins for Babb and Mellinger, so they don't have to go at Arrowhead.

Most will take from this what they already suspected. If you hate Pioli this will just fuel that. I'm still on the fence about Pioli, but what I know is he has no fans in the media, and they'll listen to anything Haley has to say, and they'll believe it because they want to.

This sounds more like an episode of 24 than the operation of an NFL team.

It sounds like we're trying to root terrorist plants out of The Arrowhead Bureau of Investigation.

Pioli can ****ing die.

Couldn't agree more. They always talk at draft and TC time about how competition drives and makes everyone better.....except at the QB position apparently. :banghead:

"Forbes downgraded the Hunt family for its five-year franchise value increase of just 3 percent and a five-year winning percentage of 36 percent."

Looks like Pioli's supreme secrecy plan is failing on and off the field.

Hammock Parties 01-15-2012 11:17 AM

Maybe Pioli will be Hunt's scapegoat!

Shit runs downhill, Scotty.

DTLB58 01-15-2012 11:24 AM

Kinda of Ironic. I just took a break from reading the Steve Jobs book this morning to read this article and hey, Scott Pioli = Steve Jobs.

Both control freaks, treat their employees ruthlessly and reaching great heights with one company only to run another into the ground.

Not illegal! If the employees are informed of the policy and any external party is made aware, it's totally legal. Some may not like it, but when things happen "under your nose" that you're questioned about later, then you start listening. we all get it with matters of national security, so this isn't quite that high, but if loyalty is a condition of employment, this is what happens. And with such a small amount of loyalty left in almost any market, you can understand why corporate America wants to know when folks aren't fully sold on the corporate plan any longer.

I still hate Hunt, not in love with Pioli, but I get it too.

My big thing, show me that everybody was told. if they were, STFU and work hard. And if it bothers you at all, don't sign anything on the way out the door, and let the world know the facts, not emotional opinions.

Next step, hold the GD players to the same standard. They should fear a dropped ball, missed block, missed tackle, poor throw, a fumble, of a dumb penalty. More than one, then expect to clear-out your locker. So far that's not the case.

One issue the story missed is that the Chiefs are facing a big Intellectual Property law suit too...Clark is going to be writing some big checks.

That is weighted down by the pathetic last two years of herm. Just saying.

Clark is a pu55y! He's always going to hire somebody to be the bad guy. Plus, I suspect he's the person in the entire organization to be least likely to win a fight. Plus, and this is the real reason, he doesn't care. He's going to say he hired a hatchet man, and it didn't work. But like CP, they'll say that 20 years from now! That's some $150-200M from now. What's the rush! He can't be fired, he just rolls in money no matter how many wrappers are left in the stairwell.

The hunt family just sucks the root, they're here for the coin, and that'll always be their only motivating factor. And they want easy money - NO RISK!!

F*** Clark!

And finally, the Chiefs provided eight current employees to do interviews for the story but not Scott Pioli? That speaks volumes.

Wouldn't it speak even more volumes if it was pioli that did the interviews and not the employees? If it was a big deal like the article states it is, then employees would not be made available.
