RUMORS FLY OF KANSAS CITY PRESS CONFERENCE (AND THE RUMORS ARE WRONG)
Posted by Mike Florio on January 5, 2009, 4:17 p.m. EST
We’ve received several e-mails from folks who claim that the Chiefs will be giving former G.M. Carl Peterson a sendoff on Monday afternoon, and then holding a press conference on Tuesday morning with a currently unknown agenda.

And, of course, the speculation is that the Chiefs will at that time announce the hiring of a new General Manager, presumably Patriots V.P. of player personnel Scott Pioli.

We’ve done some snooping, and we’ve learned that there is no press conference scheduled for tomorrow morning. Also, the Peterson event is set for tomorrow afternoon, at 3:30 p.m.

If nothing else, this mini-ruckus regarding the rumor of a press conference further proves our points (from the SportingNews.com Ten-Pack) that owner Clark Hunt is going about his search the right way — with minimal leaks. Browns owner Randy Lerner would be wise to pay attention.
