Not to mention that ticket prices have skyrocketed since CP got here, yet the product isn't any better than it was when he got here in 89. |

I wish CP was on the hotseat but I highly doubt it. I wouldn't have a problem with him staying around to finish the stadium improvements they just need to take his GM duties away.

He "shrewdly" stole Herm. I'd rather see him "shrewdly" steal Pioli.

How did he "shrewdly steal Edwards?" It cost KC a 4th round draft choice. Had he waited, Herm was sure to get $hit canned.

I agree that the planet is a vast minority in terms of fans. Carl is almost universally despised here, and he's pretty well disliked among communities like the knuckle-draggers who call 810 frequently, but the average fan doesn't get it yet.
The average fan sees us winning 7 or 8 or 9 or 10 games and thinking we are just a player or two away. Most people don't realize that we haven't won a playoff game since OJ was still a respectable (as it were) sports analyst. I was just having this discussion last week with a friend of mine who just popped for season tickets for the first time this year. I was like man, I will always be as huge on the Chiefs as ever, but it's hard to make a financial commitment to them when they stick by Carl. And all you hear back is "we sucked in the 80s, we owe all our success to carl... etc". I expect Carl to get us to the playoffs in 2009 to save his job, thereby torturing us for another 22 years or whatever it will have been by then. |

I think the odds of Peterson getting the boot are higher than a lot of people think. We don't know what his relationship with Clark Hunt is like, and if it's not tight, and Clark judges him by his on-field performance, he's in big trouble.

As you guys know I'm the leader of the run King Carl out of town on a rail brethren. But I just don't see this article as anything more than speculation BS.
Why would Clark come in and fire the guy thats made his family a ton of money? The only thing I could possibly see happening is they bring in a new GM and King Carl is still CEO/President/Chief marketeer. And I'd have no problem with that. He's the best there is at that.

Personally, I like the idea that the press is coming down on Carl.
Even if he doesn't resign or if Clark chooses to retain him, there is additional performance pressure that didn't exist before. In my view, that's a good thing. FAX |

OK.....
For sake of conversation....let's say you are Clark and are considering replacing Carl. Who do you REALISTICALLY expect him to bring in? |
