Which at least one story claims dates back to last season.
Because if that was true, obviously a kool-aid drinking Pats worshipper like Holley, who has been tight with Pioli for the last decade, would have gotten the memo. Pioli and Weis (and Romeo) would be the brains behind the outfit, and that no-connection-to-the-Pats douchebag golf pro would be the turd in the punch bowl.
But it's clear from this interview that Holley is a fan of Haley, even questioning Fescoe's comment that he'd have preferred keeping Weis. That certainly doesn't jive with the idea of Pioli working the media against him.

If your primary mission is to quash rumors of dissent, simply tell someone that there is no dissent.
Regardless, whether or not the two guys like each other is ultimately immaterial. The fact of the matter is that both are performing their jobs horribly, and that's what they should be judged on.
