if the story about clark not changing his mind on pioli until he spoke with manning is true...that is frightening...cassel, haley, crennel, and 2-14 weren't enough for Clark to break up with his bro-friend (and all rumors point to Clark having given pioli an extension...Matt Cassel got pioli an extension...that is not the sign of a smart, involved owner)
by every objective measure pioli is a failure and deserves to be fired unceremoniously...but Clark is a delicate thing, and so we have to wait
if you squint, you can see all this as a way of preserving a place for Clark's best hj brah pioli while giving fans the appearance that pioli has been punished..fast forward a month and we've hired a coach who - surprise - is ok with pioli and they - together - are preparing for another disastrous pioli draft, while hiring more pioli flunky coordinators...and Clark still gets to play farmville with his papa bear (Clark is a bottom, natch)
oh, and we trad for Smith...since Clark has never said drafting a QB is a priority (he was extra weaselly on this point in the interview on 810)...8-8 y'all, pony up!
of course, if Pioli's termination papers are sitting on Clark's desk waiting for lawyers to argue over exit $$, then the preceding fantasy is wrong and Clark is the Man...
