All you can do is laugh at this point. "The chiefs don't make the moves necessary to improve the team, chiefs wont spend the $ to get great players"

What does that have to do with anything? We're talking about Bernard Pollard.

OF COURSE he has an axe to grind. He got cut for no good reason.

MANY, MANY people in the NFL, not associated with the Chiefs, think that was a STUPID move.

He's good because they keep him within his skill set. It's called good coaching. It puts players in the best position to succeed. It's a concept that's lost in KC...

He didn't say he was offended by the language. He was offended by being talked to like that. He said, "The style that Haley had coaching. You're not gonna get in my face and 'mother-F' me and think I'm not gonna say nothing. Like I told him, when I was there, and I told Pioli, 'I have kids, and I don't talk to them that way, so you're gonna be speak to me that way.'"

It was a respect issue, not a language issue.

Cassel doesn't count, he was given 63 mill without any fear of anyone ever challenging his position.

Watch the games buddy, how many players do you see giving everything they got for this coach and GM?

You just alluded to other players not 5 minutes ago.
You should probably make up your mind.

Thanks for acknowledging that fact.

Let's not pretend he's Troy Polamalu.
His best seasons came after leaving Kansas City.
And he certainly hasn't been a world-beater since joining the Ravens.

saphojunkie · 10-04-2012, 02:01 PM

He needs to come back and undo what he has done.

You're on notice, Matt Cassel's knee...

That's one thing annoying about this fanbase. They did that with Herm too. When Herm was hired Jets fans came over here and told yall exactly what would happen. Nobody wanted to hear it. When Hackoli was hired Whitlock et. al said exactly what he was. Nobody here wanted to hear it. Clark thinks he can do whatever he want because he has enough loyal sheep. If Chiefs fans were more like Jets fans (getting Wayne Hunter run outta town after one bad season of play) maybe it wouldn't take so long for bad moves to be dealt with appropriately.

Who gives a shit if he has an axe to grind?

He's right. That's all that matters here.

It WAS a stupid move. Almost as stupid as cutting Jason Babin before training camp.

Pioli's a ****ing worthless dickfoot.

Maybe Pollard will go all Brady on Cassel. I have a Bernard Pollard Fan Club Shirt at home. Might have to break it out this week for the game.

Come on man.

This is his second season in Baltimore.

He was in Houston when they beat the Chiefs in '10.

If you want to coddle this franchise, go over to Arrowhead Pride.

I alluded to other players because there are other players that have said similar things to Pollard. You were trying to deflect, pure and simple.

Bernard Pollard had the audacity to speak up and for that, he was cut. Just like Brian Waters.

This regime is a fraud, why you would want to put yourself in this position I have no idea. You must be a masochist.

.

I didn't notice a potshot. He talked about clashing with Haley. He talked about the Ravens having a completely different approach to practice and the game. You can see those things when the Ravens take the field and when KC takes the field. You can see those things by the offseason moves of the organizations (Rice v. Bowe). You can see the difference in facilities between the clubs. He said KC wasn't going to win a bidding war for a player.

The Jets fans that came here were patronizing assholes. That's why nobody wanted to hear it.

They didn't come here and say "Herm sucks, you'll hate him."

They came here saying "oh, you poor things. We feel so sorry for you." and then went back to their Jets forum and laughed at us.

**** them.

If only Pioli had not dumped the genious that is Chan Galiey.

Oh wait......
