Dick V is laughing his old ass off!!!!!

Clark is spending the money.....$70 million in unforseen stadium upgrades.....Pioli.....and now Shanny. Both of these guys got premium money to come the Chiefland. Lamar is turning over in his grave, RIP.

It won't let me upload, it keeps failing

Petro getting play on ESPN News right now...

Mortensen says that things have moved fast in the last 24 hours. Negotiating.

Mort on SportsCenter: 2 sources say negotiations have picked up in the last 24 hours with Shanahan, and hoping to close the deal (didn't say when).

JFC, Mort implying Jack Harry is the source of the info.

Evidently Clark Hunt wants to do something more than just fill seats.

"Chin! CHIN! CHIN! CHIN! "


With Crennel as DC, and Gailey as OC. :hmmm:


Maybe the Rat will come to be a QB Coach for Thiggy? :shrug:


;)

Close your door. /Mane/

Why does everything you post always end up about you?

wft I feel dirty

So does this mean that we can't use the term "rat-boy" anymore and that we now all have to defend the art of chop blocking?

Mort is the only person who has shown any indications of having a source in the Chiefs organization. I'll go with him for now.

Tony G is coming on ESPN.

Link???

Crennel as DC, Chan as OC with Shanahan returning to be just a coach with Pioli running the draft and free agency?

I'll take that.

Gonzo coming up on SportsCenter. Will likely claim that the Rat is the greatest coach ever and that he'll have the team headed in the right direction. Next year likely to be greatest Chief team ever.

GET THE FUGG OUTTA HERE!

ESPN:Vincent
Thugs: Schefter

Yo, homie? Is that who the Chiefs are hiring?

Tony G's gonna be on SC here in a little bit!

kevin Harlan reporting that Shannarat likes Pioli and told a friend that "the only person i would work for this year is Scott Pioli"

this was said BEFORE pioli left new england to work for KC

Kevin Harlan:

"I talked to someone that spoke to Mike Shanahan before he went on vacation."

Shanahan to that source:

"The ONLY person I'd work for this early after being fired in Denver is Scott Pioli."

Your move, Schefter.

maybe Shefter is taking the fall now putting up a smoke screen for a good inside source with the rat later on???

Pioli: No ****ing ego.

Not worried about this being only his show.

Chiefs: Look the **** out.

This would be incredible! I said we'd be nuts no go after him and Scott was listening.

Harlan just left the air to take a phone call that "might be interesting" regarding this...

By winning a Superbowl.

Slowik will be on the staff. Shanahan has been actively looking for assistants.

Per Slowik's agent.

These fired assistants have to be looking for work, and it has something to do with compensation from Bowlen.

Harlan not sure about the legalities.

These guys need evidence they are looking for work to earn complete compensation from Bowlen, could they be using the Chiefs?

Harlan doesn't think so.

Huard on ESPN right now.

Didn't Slowik take a spot with the Colts?

If not, no how, no way do I want him as a DC.

lol

This

This is good for a laugh.

The latest rumor is that Shanahan is building a new wing on his house that extends from Denver to Kansas City, so he can coach the Chiefs without having to move.

Apparently Shanahan promised Slowik that if he took a job in 2009, that Slowik would have a job on staff.

NOTHING said about what that position would be.

This!

Slowik just took a job with the Lions yesterday

what worries me is that Shefter IS supposed to be friends with Shannarat.

thats fine as long as Romeo is hired as DC.

that dumbass Harlan comparing Carl Peterson/Shottenheimer with Pioli/Shannrat again.

:shake:

My friend works for a denver radio station too and believes adam as well...its turning into a damn soap opera

Moot point, as Dirk pointed out.

huh? Haven't read the whole thread.

Slowik took a job in Detroit yesterday.

So WTF? Yes or No?

Neither. Maybe.

cool.:clap:

ESPN changed from "negotiations" to "targeting".

Looks like Schefter's in the lead...

Heard Chiefs wanted interview Haley but that ticket invoices are scheduled to go out next week and they wanted to have a coach before then. In fear that a lot of ticket holders wouldn't renew.

I guess the people on the Mange were wrong and I was wrong

http://www.mlive.com/lions/index.ssf...l_not_joi.html

One good thing about the Pioli Shanahan team up is we might finally get a little national coverage from the coastal-biased as hell sports media.

I doubt Mortenson will be wrong about this. He rarely is.

Personally, I like the move.

No doubt.

Mortensen backed way off the "nearing deal" title.

Just sit back and relax.

Mike Shanahan is going to be the next coach of the Kansas City Chiefs.

It's going to be beautiful.

Damn

By winning games! We will claim him as we claimed Marcus Allen, as out own true son....as long as he is a winner.

I would bet on one of those.

Server hasn't crashed...

WAY TO GO, KYLE!

Did you read that they are "targeting" rather than "negotiating" now...

hmmm

I too, have thrown up in my mouth....

Uhhh he gave up a home run last time out when he predicted that now way, no how was Pioli ever coming to KC.

Yep. It's starting to feel like the Spags rumor that happened immediately after the Pioli hire.

It would be crazy to think that Schefter - THE GUY WHO WROTE A BOOK WITH SHANAHAN - could know what he's talking about on this.

http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/image...._AA240_.L.jpg

LMAO I was just thinking the same thing

If he was just a Broncos coach, that would be one thing. But he's also a cheater who has screwed the Cheifs over and had a hand in some of the most painful Chiefs moments in the last 20 years.

Wow this thread is smoking. Its hard to freaking believe and I am not sure how I feel about this. I have always held Shannahan in such disdain.

Well hopefully with Pioli being the GM and Shanny concentrating on coaching football maybe we can finally make it back to the promised land in my lifetime.

This is going to take some getting used to though.

seriously I've hated the rat since he first came in to Denver. I find it very hard to have a guy who has played against the Chiefs for so long and roll in here like no hard feelings. I guess people hated Herm during his time here so I guess I'll choose the boat where all the haters will be. It'd be like Belichick leaving the Patriots for the Jets. Jets fans would start a riot.

sounds like Tony's still thinking trade... no surprise I guess.

Does anyone know how accurate Schefter has been in the past?

My feeling, NFL.com would rather give the scoop to their own, than to an outsider.

We'll see.

I didn't get that at all.

Uhhh he said one day before Pioli was announced as the new GM that now way , no how Pioli was coming to KC.

It's not a matter of NFL.com giving anything. It's a matter of people having reliable contacts close to the situation.

Eh why hate just love.

Some of you need to just get over yourselves a little bit. No offense.

Linda Cohn said someone with the Chiefs used the word "targeting", hence the change.

How did you get that out of the SC interview?

I really disapprove of mixed marriages.....

I really don't care what any media besides Nicholas Athan have to say about this.

It is amusing to watch Mortensen and Schefter ride his coattails now, though. Where were these guys 20 days ago?

In matters surrounding Shanahan, Schefter has a nearly perfect record... This should give you an idea why
