Schefter: Chiefs leaning towards firing Pioli
 

Schefter: Chiefs mulling big change

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Sunday that he expects the Kansas City Chiefs to fire coach Romeo Crennel.

As for general manager Scott Pioli, Schefter reports the Chiefs -- mired in a miserable 2-13 season -- are leaning toward firing Pioli.

If I had to guess, I’d say both Crennel and Pioli are going to be fired. They are a package deal. I think if the Hunt family had its druthers, it would give both men another chance. But the fan fury is so great in Kansas City, I think the Hunts will be compelled to make a move.

I don’t think firing one of the two and keeping the other will work.

Pioli has hired two coaches -- Todd Haley and Crennel -- since joining the Chiefs in 2009. I don’t necessarily think he will get a chance to hire a third. If that is what is the case, I think the Chiefs will likely make a clean sweep and hire a new general manager (Bill Polian, anyone?) first and then a head coach.

We shall soon see. I don’t think the Hunts will wait long before making a decision.

This coming from Schefter is big

OK. Finally! Now this is a report that makes sense. GET THE **** OUT!!!!!

thank god

There you go. Credible report.

This is getting ****ing silly.

it's as bad as the Manning drama.


See you guys when something actually happens

If this is true, much respect to SOC and all the other fans that have made their displeasure known. However, it doesn't change the fact that the Hunts seem dumb as **** to not be able to fire Pioli's ass for his obvious failures.

I am going to blow something if he stays. Call 911.

From all these conflicting reports, sounds like Clark really has not decided yet.

This is the same guy who said we hired Shany too, isn't it?

Which is scary if you think about it.

that's the worst part

that Clark has not even decided yet and can still be swayed either way. That is sad.

Hell, Marty's "report" several weeks ago was credible enough for me.

Shit, I didn't even need a report.

Anyone who has done their job as Pioli has done his is going to be fired, especially in the NFL where you've got to put up winning seasons.

Yup, this is exactly what it means to me as well. Media is just guessing.

I'm getting a little dizzy.

You are not banned yet?

This sounds more like an opinion more than an actual Chiefs report...

The whole thing is littered with "I" and "think."

misleading title -- this is a bill williamson write.

PM me so we can meet up ;)

Happy Happy Joy Joy

Get your panties unwadded already

Will do I will bring the midgets too.

See here we go. Pioli is doing this to piss of the fan base and see if ferentz would get us clamoring. Hell no Scott your the weakest link goodbye

Schefter doesn't know dick about the Chiefs. This shit sipper is just throwing out an opinion piece

[QUOTE=petegz28;9251696]Get your panties unwadded already[/QUOTE

Whatever dick head lover.

Well, it's kind of vague in that it's a guy quoting a guy who's heard from a guy about a guy. A form of there here there here say.

:thumb:

I have a feeling you like Scott Pioli.


Didnt you have a thread on what it will take for us to forgive Pioli?


Go away dick sucker.

I want Pioli gone. Book closed

From NFL.COM


According to NFL.com's Steve Wyche, the Kansas City Chiefs are expected to retain general manager Scott Pioli despite a disastrous season, according to a source briefed on the situation. Coach Romeo Crennel won't be as fortunate. The source said Crennel likely will be fired, although no final decision has been made on the coach's future.

Chiefs owner Clark Hunt has strong feelings for Pioli and wants to give him another shot to get things right, the source said.

Mostly this report is Williamson's and Schefter's personal opinion. A source is implied only in the second paragraph. I hope he's right, but I still worried as heck.

Strong feelings for Pioli?

This just got weird.

FAX

Jesus christ. I hate this ****ing team.

Just to be sure I would have a plane with a banner that reads ( Remember the Fans) ready to fly over Clarks house just before he meets with Pioli.

You never know how these things could go

In other words, he makes Chunt lots of money and THAT is what drives the Hunt family

I don't know why Scott wouldn't even be embarrassed enough to resign.

If I was terrible at my job and everyone hated me I would lay low and find something else I was good at.

You would willingly pass up on millions of dollars?

This is bullshit. Nothing makes more money than Winning. If Clark wants to make money he needs to win a championship.

Scott Pioli

If I already had millions of dollars I wouldn't need any more.

harlan has mentioned a couple of times on 810 that clark has a bro-crush on pioli...

it's why he hires dominicans to bang his wife

Maybe they're a couple?

Tell that to the countless "millionaires" filing for bankruptcy.

LOL, sure

Ha. Agreed. But you're talking about a guy who is too proud/full of himself to admit Matt Cassel, the 32nd ranked starting QB in the league earlier this season, was a mistake. He doesn't care about the city, the fans who hate him, or the team; he cares about himself and his own prestige. Whether he wins championships wearing Chiefs red or Patriots blue doesn't matter. Scott wants the hardware for Scott, not for Kansas City.

Hunt makes money in his sleep. He wants to win.

That's not how that works. People with a lot of money enjoy making more money, just like anyone else. Their needs are different, but they still want more. They don't forego millions just because.

It sure looks like it!

Danny Parkins said himself that Clark is very reluctant to do this because he is close to Pioli and really wanted this to work out. Said it's like breaking up with a girlfriend. It's not easy but you have to ****ing do it and move forward.

Good. Gooood

This is why you don't hire your friends. It's a ****ing business, not a place to hang out with your friends...

I will no longer be a fan of the Chiefs if they keep that ****ing POS

I'm sure Hunt and Pioli could still hang out socially if they wanted.

There is no ****ing way Clark likes Pioli personally after he told CBS to talk about the blackout.

clark doesn't want to give up the long, slow handys they give each other in his jacuzzi...

He is gone. If he was staying all the media outlets would have been on this and Pioli's butt buddies in the media would have been giving handy's out today.

Clark told CBS to do that?

nice to read at least one sports guy, agrees with the chiefs
faithful!

Yes. This was reported by Marty several days ago. Do you read, dipshit?

Not sure how I missed that.

Maybe I just forgot.

We can't necessarily read everything that's posted.

If Marty's post is in the SOC thread, then I haven't read it.

Here it is.

Do you have a better quote?

wut

I haven't read it and read just about everything here. Instead of being a prick, why don't you post a link and enlighten us.

I can barely read at all and I missed it as well. As Mr. htismaqe suggests, a link would be most helpful in this time of great trial.

FAX

There's a metric ton of bullshit in a lot of these threads.

Clark told CBS to talk about the blackout?

C'mon now.

Maybe I'm an idiot, but nothing there tells me Clark told CBS to talk about SOC.

Perhaps he used telepathy.

FAX

Yep !:rolleyes:

You're wrong. Very wrong.

Clark loves Pioli. If he didn't, he would have been fired mid year around the same time the Panthers let Marty Hurney go.

That has more to do with Clark wanting to do things the right way.

There is no way he likes him after he told CBS to embarrass him on a broadcast.

That's all there is. If you can't read between the lines you're stupid.

Gonna have to show some proof of this. Otherwise I'm going with reality in that Clark and Pioli are good friends.

Yeah ... we are now informed that Clark has strong feelings for Pioli. Strong feelings. For.

There must be a side of Dr. Evil that we simply haven't seen. The soft, cuddly, loving and affectionate aspect of his personality.

No it wasn't. It was Mort from ESPN (and Athan).
