KC Star: This could be Peterson’s last stand with Chiefs
This is a must-read piece for any number of reasons. Mainly for the fact that it clearly explains the Herm vs. Carl division in the organization, which some people here still don't think actually exists.
But there's also some great quotes, like Dick Vermeil saying Carl would get another GM job within a week if the Chiefs fired him. And Pat Bolen of all people on Earth talking about heads rolling, like he'd know anything about that. http://www.kansascity.com/sports/story/761067.html Quote:

I think the only way Herm survives a Carl's ouster is if the Cheifs hire Carl's successor from within. An outside GM is going to want to bring in his own coach. I'd rather wait until after the '09 season and purge the whole front office and coaching staff than do a half-way job after this season. |

The only thing that matters:
The blue line represents the last season each of the 32 NFL teams won a playoff game from the 1990-2007 seasons. For fun, I added red bars for a super bowl loss and green bars for a super bowl win during the graph's time period. I update this graph every year after the SB. |

Personally, I thank Peterson for turning KC around in 88'. 73' to 88' were unbearable! That said I haven't liked his decisions after Marty left and I have a bad feeling for this tandem of coaches Herm et all. Glaring (for me) above all is the fact that these players CANNOT tackle. What good are high draft picks if you have clowns teaching them? Last night was atrocious! Absolutely embarrassing!!
I'll have to go to the clean the entire house camp. |

They'll still ignore that division, even after reading this... People have to have their scapegoat, you know. |

Dear Greatest Fans in the NFL:
It was very nice to see a three-page article written about me in today's KC Star. I've had a little more trouble than usual gaining access to the mainstream media since last year, when I had Bob Gretz' nose surgically removed from my rectal cavity. The article did a fine job listing my many unique and prestigious accomplishments, including: * Resurrecting a left for dead franchise in 1988. * Getting this team one game away from the Super Bowl in 1993. * Getting a stadium renovation package passed in Jackson County. * Bringing NCAA College Football to Arrowhead. * Hiring top flight head coaches like Marty, Dick and Herm. * Ferociously negotiating multi million dollar deals with draft choices. * Getting one game away from the Super Bowl in 1993. * Generating a consecutive home sellout streak of more than 100 games. * Improving the cheesiness of the nachos, which are the finest in the NFL. * Did I mention 1993? You can be sure, that if I am relieved of duty at the end of this season, it will only be due to a poor coaching job by Herm Edwards. I had all picks signed by the beginning of camp, and as I have always said, I am not responsible for the performance of the players on game day. That is on the coaches, and on the players themselves. If my contract is not renewed after the end of the 2009 season, I'm sure there will be another opportunity to revive a floundering NFL franchise, like Cincinnati, Atlanta or possibly (dare I say it) the Oakland Raiders. Just like Greg Wesley, nothing would be sweeter than to make my triumphant return to the NFL in silver and black. As you all know, I already own thousands of dollars worth of black leather clothing. Add some pure silver "bling" and I've got the perfect wardrobe for Oakland. If I have any regrets, I guess I should never continually referred to Clark as "that sawed-off little Hunt" while Lamar was alive. That's on me. My bad. Big mistake. As to the 2008 season, I would like to remind all of you, the greatest fans in the NFL, that there are still several quality seats available at $41 for exciting Chiefs football. You should especially consider buying your tickets now for the Buffalo and Miami games, as I'm confident that's the only way you'll be able to see that game within a 100 mile radius of Arrowhead. Did I say that out loud? Here's to stadium renovation, my new office -wherever that may be in 2010- and to another great year of exciting Kansas City Chiefs football. I'm sure I'll see you all at Tuesday's pep rally. Make sure to buy lots of new Chiefs gear for the rally. I appreciate it. Really I do. Your Pal, Carl Delano Peterson LTGMIPS |

Although I could see Clark being like **** it, and getting rid of both after this year. In words, already, he has proven he is not his father in being proactive and not as loyal or patient, which is fair because it's been too long this franchise has been in the crapper. We will see after this year if in actions he's not his father.
