***Rumor*** Pioli gets fired if Chiefs Lose in Tampa.
 

Title says it all. Heard on the Danny Parkins show this morning on 610 that Danny has an unnamed Source that he trusts. The source says Pioli has been told win at Tampa or his tenure is done in KC.

Can we really be this close to our goal? :thumb:

No way Pioli is fired any time before Week 15, if he gets fired at all.

Besides all the portents are pointing to him getting an extension.

Sounds great, but how many teams have fired a GM in mid-season?

Pisoli floating out false shit to get the fans excited so he can revel in the suffering when the Cheaps lose and it comes out a few days later his contract has been extended? He's a dirty bastard, that's for sure

And if we win he's redeemed?

THROW THE GAME, QUINN!!!!

No way he fires him based on one game after an injury to Cassel. Don't buy this rumor for a second. That said. Go Bucs!!!

Don't tempt me

They won't fire him.

Danny said he called this source to confirm the extension and instead of getting a confirmation, he got this news instead. :p

reeruned.

OK gang?

HOPE IS KINDLED

clean house sooner the better

Go on record, or it doesn't mean shit. It's journalism's version of "pics or gtfo"

I may have to break out the Alstott jersey for this one!

Dont know off the top of my head....but what does a GM do in mid season?

Most of their work is done in the offseason I would think.

Would be awesome if true. But I can't for a minute think that a GM would be held accountable for the outcome of a single game.

Duh..... they control game day lineups. Right? Right? :banghead:

So the front office won't tell reporters yesterday wheter his contract has been extended or not, but come out with a specific detail concerning his job performance and a termination pending a victory? Pisoli twisting the knife he stuck in our backs

LMAO

This is actually what I find the most believable.

Maybe Clark just knows they are gonna lose.

scouting players for 13 draft, roster moves. we need pioli fired now so the job gets really enticing for everyone around the league like it would. someone watching from the outside and seeing how dirtay geno is

Carl was forced out during the season, and after stories were printed that Clark was pissed about the on field play and stormed out of his suite.

Hunt might want to make a change at midseason, so we can work on finding a replacement and being ready for offseason activities (like hopefully resigning Bowe before Pioli has a chance to let him walk)

Right now for the Chiefs he sets the line ups and calls the plays/cp

Bullshit... This forum is Hilarious

its really not just a single game. its the past 4 years and that abortion of a game

Ummm when is the last time a GM was fired by week 5? I call BS

The soonest anything would happen to Pioli is after this season is done.
And if they throw anybody under the bus for this year, it'll be Cassel.

I call BS

There's nothing on Parkins Twitter about it.....

Yea, Scott Pioli's job is going to rest in the hands of Brady Quinn. The hands of a backup QB.

Oh wait, that is ****ing reeruned. Can the mods please lock this thread?

first, it makes no sense at all to base your judgement on one game when he has almost 4 years of failure....so, i don't believe it

that said

i will be rooting for a loss with every fiber....i will pray from now to sunday for us to lose by 40

lol@2good2btrue

The only way this is true is if there is a hot GM prospect out there RIGHT NOW.

This is easily one of the top 3 worst "rumors" of CP all time.

I want Quinn to look great but the team to still massively lose. I think that is the most embarrassing scenario for Pioli.

sad news is that if this does actually indeed happen that the assistant general manager is joel collier and he came over from the patriots too .... yikes

Yeah right.

Has Clark said anything at all, except that carefully crafted statement, about anything?

Wouldn't make sense to fire a GM during the season, I don't see it having any impact on the remaining games.

Just think of the gigantic weight that would be lifted off this fanbase's shoulders if Pioli was shitcanned.........

Hugh Douglas was seen at the airport

so was Carl ;)

Let's hope that this is true. Pioli must go!

Nowhere on his Twitter this thread is bullshit

Unless the source is Clark Hunt & varified this is just a shooting blanks in the dark & hope the wife doesn't get pissed you jizzed on the curtains.

It's right up there with OK Gang...

Bucs gonna win...

Oh shit. Did he have his white sport coat on?

The good times. :D

After an 0-3 start to the Lions 2008 season, Lions vice chairman and Ford Motor Company Executive Chairman William Clay Ford, Jr., told reporters on September 22, 2008 if it were up to him, he would fire Millen.

On September 24, 2008, Millen's tenure as team president and general manager ended.

And Cowher

Dude, you'll be waving the white flag in the 1st quarter if the Chiefs take the kickoff and get a FG.

A GM is never fired before he makes a scape goat out of the coach first..

This is false. Danny Parkins show is not in the morning reerun. Pizza boy Fescoe's is.

Maybe Clark has finally put it all together??

Two issues with the rumor.

1. If true we will win regardless as that is our luck.

2. If true then what happens if we win? Does he last the season? Get extended? These questions lead me to not believe the rumor.

WTF 10 am isnt in the morning? Get your shit straight!

Pisoli is the "source" dumbasses. He's laughing at you while Clark fills his and Cassholes pockets with chedda.....

Well if Mr. Chunt were basing it off the past 4 years, then there wouldn't need to be a qualifier like "Win at TB or your fired!" You don't look at 4 years of work, and say "Alright, that's been shitty and all, but now your future rests on this one single game." It's just totally illogical.

heh. well lets just hope they lose so we can get confirmation. :D

He got this from lazlo on the buzz yesterday. Lazlo claimed to have a source that told him. Lazlo still talks to nick wright. My guess is nick is trolling or he's using the same sources that told him about Haley last year and is passing the info on.

hope the rumor is true.

Not believing this for one second.

Please? Pretty please? :p

The way lazlo told it, pioli is gone regardless, a loss would cause immediate firing, a win doesn't mean he's not, but it may buy him time to the next blowout loss. Probably all bs but it's nice to hope for.

LMAO

Rumors of him about to be fired right after rumors of him being extended.

There is literally no point in firing him midseason. Unless maybe Clark thinks it will placate fans.

About 59,000 $85 season tickets would cover a $5m GM buyout.

Something tells me somebody named Marty is whispering in his ear!

With all the unrest and the team's general state of shittiness, I can't imagine he'll be here next year. But I seriously doubt that Clark will grease him in the middle of the season. Although I certainly wouldn't mind seeing it happen.

where do you guys come up with this shit? LMAO

Quinn is taking half the first team snaps
Cassel is cleared to practice
Pioli will be fired if we lose to Tampa

What did I miss?

rumor is (unconfirmed sources), Dayze has a 12" penis, with the girth of a beer can.

Marty's too busy coaching in the UFL.

mods delete this thread...seriously

IF that over inflated douchbag gets fired, then it's already been decided (win or lose) or most likely will happen at the end of the year.

I'm in the "some people just want to watch the world burn category"

Fire everybody now!

Funny he was at the last game or the previous game can't remember which.
