Babb said he has no intentions at all against Pioli. Said he has a great working relationship with him. Story just fell in place among with the 30 people he interviewed. No sour grapes at all.

1.) The blinds thing is done at Gillette, too, with a nearby hotel. It's done because people were found to be spying on practices.

2.) Parking in the boss' spot is a way to get into a lot of trouble. This isn't news.

3.) Tracking company-issued employee phones has been going on for a long time. Here's an article on it from back in 2004

That makes since. What's he supposed to do act like JW?

People lost their jobs so perhaps they're embellishing things just a little. I didn't read anything in the article that upset me as a fan. :shrug:

Just what this thread needed: a defense of anything Patriot by the increasingly-erroneously-named Just Passin' By.

Me too.

Try not to be an idiot.

I explained the blinds and noted that tracking has been around for years. That's not defending anything Patriot.

And the one time someone at the star (mellinger) writes a good piece about the chiefs needing an upgrade at qb, freaking babb buries it with his KGB/horrible bosses crap.

Babb has always come off as a yes man to me and a Pioli/Clark lackey so the fact that he was author of this article was a real eye opener for me.

And let's be honest, he has ZERO to gain from this and a whole helluva lot to lose...which is why I tend to believe what he gathered.

I have company issued cell phone, and guess what.. I don't get the bill, so I'm sure they have a record of my calls. Also at my work they monitor e-mails and internet usage and I just work for a window manufacturing company.

The only way I could see the Chiefs getting in trouble is if they did mess with Haley's personnel cell phone.

L.A. Chieffan 01-16-2012 06:29 PM

I don't see a problem with it. Would you rather have other teams spying on them?

He has a TON to gain by writing this. Do you know how many big time newspapers and websites have now heard of him? It's great for his career.

I meant in local circles and in his K.C. career...should've specified.

If Pioli was trying to get Haley to resign, he was probably more likely messing with his head than with his cellphone

You are right there, but I bet he wants his career to take him to bigger places than KC.

"He was talking to somebody else in the media room in the press room where he does the press conferences and I had kinda stepped into the locker room and I was walking back to where our little holding area is and he followed me back. And that happens occasionally. They'll have something to say. or want you to know something, or want to yell at you about something.

"But this time was a little bit different. He was pretty high strung and said he wanted to talk to me. We walked over this way and over that way and into this conference room. And he said you'll get a call that will be from a number you don't know. And that's a call I haven't gotten but that's the way it goes. He was fired four days later. This was the Thursday before the Jets game."
