Clark Hunt Appreciation Thread

[KcMizzou]

We all wondered what we were getting with Clark.

Many of us had started doubting him already.

"He doesn't care. His true love is soccer. He spends all his time in Fiji. He's probably not even aware."

Well, the man laid a lot of those fears to rest today.

Here's to you, Mr. Hunt. :toast:

[L.A. Chieffan]

blow and strippers on Clark!

[Hammock Parties]

Is Herm Edwards still employed by the Kansas City Chiefs?

In that case I reserve the right to withhold my appreciation.

However, it is an extremely positive sign.

[Coach]

Agreed.

[KcMizzou]

Is Herm Edwards still employed by the Kansas City Chiefs?

In that case I reserve the right to withhold my appreciation.Give it time.

The conservative move would have been to let Carl ride out his contract. That's what I expected.

I'm impressed.

[Hammock Parties]

If Clark hires Bradway and he retains Herm, you'll all hate his guts.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

If Clark hires Bradway and he retains Herm, you'll all hate his guts.

If he hires anyone and they retain Herm they'll all hate his guts.

[Coach]

If Clark hires Bradway and he retains Herm, you'll all hate his guts.

That would be the worst thing that could happen.

[KcMizzou]

That would be the worst thing that could happen.That won't happen.

[Coach]

That won't happen.

Remember, anything is possible. I didn't think the Chiefs would be that inept to blow a 18 point lead by the 3rd quarter, much less, give up 12 points in less than 2 minutes.

[KcMizzou]

God damn! Buncha Debbie Downers. :shake:

This is a day for celebration! Don't piss on my parade. :D

[Tribal Warfare]

God damn! Buncha Debbie Downers. :shake:

This is a day for celebration! Don't piss on my parade. :D

I think it's innate for some of these guys

[Reerun_KC]

God damn! Buncha Debbie Downers. :shake:

This is a day for celebration! Don't piss on my parade. :D

Not being a downer and loving it, but have some caution that we might be stuck with Give draft way Kuriach and cant win Herm.

[Reerun_KC]

I think it's innate for some of these guys

But still the best fucking day in the history of the Chiefs!

[Coach]

God damn! Buncha Debbie Downers. :shake:

This is a day for celebration! Don't piss on my parade. :D

I'm not pissing on anybody's parade. :p I'm just being realistic in a way.

[Hammock Parties]

HAIL THE VICTORIOUS!

Thanks Clark ... now back up the bus to the HC door and load the entire circus, tent and all ...

[KcFanInGA]

Well this is a start anyway.

[the Talking Can]

it's a very good first step...also the easiest

now

1. hire a young gm
2. fire herm
3. draft a QBOTF

[luv]

God damn! Buncha Debbie Downers. :shake:

This is a day for celebration! Don't piss on my parade. :D

Are you new here?

[FloridaMan88]

Herm needs to be fired before Clark gets my full appreciation

[KcMizzou]

Are you new here?You'd think so, wouldn't ya?

[the Talking Can]

i'm just happy that clark sounds like he has a plan

he didn't just fire carl, he made it clear that he wants to build long term stability with a draft/youth oriented approach and that he wants a GM - from OUTSIDE the organization - who has been a part of that...

like water after 20years in the desert

[Buehler445]

In. Keep rollin Clark...Hermie Next!

[StcChief]

But still the best fucking day in the history of the Chiefs!in the last few years anyway.

like water after 20years in the desertYes, exactly.

That's all I'm really saying.

His actions, and his words today... were a pleasant surprise to me.

[Mr. Arrowhead]

actually firing Herm should fall on the responsibility of the new GM.

[Lonewolf Ed]

What about fire position coaches such as special teams coach, defensive coordinator, QB coach, defensive line coach, and whomever else is atrocious?

[KcMizzou]

[1ChiefsDan]

This.

well, that goes without saying when you ax herm, imo...

[triple]

the new GM will choose whomever he wants

that is why i bet that the new GM is named fairly quickly, because he has to be ready to start the coaching search immediately

[1ChiefsDan]

in the last few years anyway.

few? I was 2 when we won the SB. The Marty years were nice, but Carl should have left with him.

[Lonewolf Ed]

Baby steps.

Yes, but very necessary baby steps!

[Mr. Arrowhead]

problem is Clark acted like some of the candidates were on playoff teams. So i think its gonna be longer than you think. I think we will name one around the time of the super bowl

[KcMizzou]

Yes, but very necessary baby steps!Of course.

The rest of it gets done with the new GM. After all, it'll be his call.

[luv]

People say they won't celebrate until Herm and others are gone. The first step is always the hardest, and the first step has been taken. Yes, we need to focus on the future, but you have to celebrate the victories along the way. This will trickle down. Just give it some time. In the meanwhile, pop open a beer and celebrate.

[stevieray]

This was done because Clark only cares about making money....this should be a crow thread...

Nice move..show everyone on the footbal side of operations that not one persons job is safe......

love the split up of GM/Pres...
