Most of these reports are only stories because this franchise hasn't had much success under the Pioli regime.
No one would give two shits about him flinging a chair against a wall if we'd won a playoff game over the last 3 years. Winning will cure all of this.

Complaints of how the front office is being run isn't new, people just didn't want to hear it. The whole "Lamar would be embarrassed" bit has been floating since Pioli got here when stories of how ex-Chief players were being treated and the facilities started to get locked down.

Working for a guy who is a control freak, demands perfection, and can come across as an a-hole is nothing new and nothing unique to the Chiefs. It's a style that only certain type of people can thrive under, and takes time to get those people in place. People who say winning is the cure are right. It's the difference between Belichick in Cleveland, where these same types of stories were told, and Belichick in New England. Unless Pioli does something where players and agents come out to publicly rip him, or he does something where it is public record that he has shamed the organization (IE DUI), then I'm not going to put too much stock into a "hey, I heard a story from someone who used to work for the Chiefs that the guy is an a-hole" stories. His bottom line for me is wins and losses, and he's got basically this upcoming year to get that done for me... |

As I said, the noise has been there and isn't new, whether you want to hear it or not is up to you. |

But potential coaches, FAs, etc... would. And guess what, we're not getting the potential coaches, FAs, etc... that actually create winning precisely because of these stories. If you win first, then you can be a complete shithead because people like being associated with a winner. But you can't be a shithead first, then expect to assemble a winning staff.
