I was thinking the same thing. He could've said, "it's because of you that this team is so shitty, see you in hell ****o"

Probably not, but we'll never know.

I wonder who Kings source was?

But as I reported on NBC Sunday night, a source close to law enforcement on the scene Saturday told me the story had some differences from the one widely reported over the weekend. When Pioli arrived at the Chiefs' complex around 8 a.m., Belcher had just arrived and was out of his car. Pioli got out of his car and noticed that Belcher was in an agitated state, according to my source. As they spoke, Pioli saw Belcher had a gun. Though Belcher was clearly unstable, the source said Pioli didn't feel threatened because Belcher never pointed the gun at him. Belcher and Pioli were alone in the parking lot, a few yards apart, for several minutes.

(The source did not tell me if Pioli knew exactly what Belcher had done before he arrived, but he said clearly Belcher had shot someone and spoke of the police coming for him soon.)

At one point while the two men were alone in the parking lot, the source said, Belcher said to Pioli: "I came here to tell you thank you. Thank you for my chance. I love you, bro.''

The source said Pioli tried to calm Belcher, but had little success. At one point, Belcher asked Pioli, "Can I talk to Romeo and Gary?'' Crennel and Gibbs, he meant.

Pioli took out his cell phone and called Crennel, asking him to get Gibbs and come outside. (Imagine what Pioli had to be thinking here: I'm calling two of my closest coaching friends to come out into an open parking lot with an unstable man with a gun, who apparently has shot someone, and is impervious to any attempt to calm him down. How dangerous is that?)

Within minutes Gibbs and Crennel appeared. They, too, tried to calm Belcher, to no avail. Belcher thanked them for his NFL opportunity, and he began to walk away from them.

"I wasn't able to reach the young man,'' Crennel said softly over the phone from Kansas City Sunday.

Belcher walked a few steps away, put the gun to his head, and pulled the trigger.

I do think that Scott obviously felt no danger coming from Belcher or why would he call his friends out to a dangerous situation. If this story is true then I think he sounds like a hero in this and am not going to begrudge him that because his job as GM has stunk.

I didn't realize or didn't see it reported before that Gary Gibbs was also out there with them in the parking lot. Those three men have a heavy burden to carry I feel for them. I pray for healing for them and the team and especially for the little girl and her family.

This is all unprecedented situation & no hand book to deal with it. I think the coaches and even Pioli handled it the best way they could. I don't like Pioli as our GM and have little respect for him as a man, but I don't hold this against him. It could have been any GM that gave Belcher the opportunity to play in the NFL it just happen to be Scott Pioli and that is why Belcher in an unstable state of mind went to Scott Pioli knowingly what he had done and knew he was going to off himself and nothing anyone could do to change that. Belcher is a dead man he took away more than just his own life. He took away peoples lives as they knew it.

How is he a hero? WTF? He tried to do what probably anyone would try to do and talk down Belcher.

I agree. Calling Romeo out to the parking is in no way of a heroic act lol.

And anyone doing so is a hero in my book. They are putting aside their personal safety to try to intervene in something that they are likely ill equipped to handle.

Obviously Pioli didn't feel Belcher was dangerous if he called out Crennel and the other coach. But he also did what he could to try to help Belcher. He easily could have called his voice mail to pretended to talk to Crennel and waited for the police to arrive.

he probably looked at Scott and Romeo and said to hell with it all, lets do it.

you are not thinking the patriot way

the are not friends they are employees, and as such expendable

so the purpose was more targets

[htismaqe]

I would imagine King's source is Scott Pioli himself.
