Clark caught between a rock and a hard place
Clark is in a Catch-22. If he lets Pioli go now, there will be the perception among the fans, owners, and the NFL in general that he doesn't really make the decisions around here- he will be percieved as beeing subject to the whims of the fans. On the other hand, if he doesn't let Pioli go, he will have totally alienated the entire fan base who makes his team profitable (outside of TV revenues). The Chiefs have made one PR blunder after another this year and fans are on the verge of outright revolt.

In all seriousness, if you are Clark- and view this purely as a business decision- what is your next move?

There is no reason to keep anyone from the current regime employed. PERIOD.
What he refuses to accept is that Pioli's behavior with his non-football employees and the media isn't inconsequential.

It's a symptom of a much larger organizational dysfunction and absolutely DOES have an effect on the on-field product.

I have heard that Pioli is incredibly disliked within the walls of Arrowhead.

"Whims of the fans"? The on field product put forth by Fat Scott's roster is justification enough for him to be fired.

This isn't like Al Davis firing a GM or HC and not giving him a legit chance to succeed. Fat Scott has been given 4 offseasons and 4 drafts, and a second opportunity to hire a HC. He has failed.

I wonder if front offices talk about fan-bases the same way that we talk about them?

Maybe they're planning to "blow it up" by getting new fans. Already seems like it.

Teams cannot get new fans unless they move.

They are "stuck" with this loyal, stupid cash cow of a fan base.

Sucks to be them.

It's just not true. Sports franchises are always looking to add to their fan base, and sometimes willing to let segments go.
