I actually enjoyed the article, and totally agree with it.

Maybe I am naieve, but Pioli has me convinced he is making the right moves.

I'd feel a whole lot better about the moves going on if stuff like this didn't pop up. I just thought we were past this.

Maybe, I am just a sucker for anything coming out about the Chiefs.

They should just designate CP as the official site for the team. I love this place.

It's not a public message board; it's the Chiefs homepage.

It's the equivalent of walking into Walmart and instead of being greeted with, "Welcome to Walmart!" the person says, "Well, good evening, you roundish and churlish piece of dog shit."

LMAO Awesome.

LMAO "It's not that Carl's Rufus Dawes wasn't very good at his job. It's just new GM's have to have their own guys filling these roles. Guys they trust. Guys that understand their scheme. Scott Pioli's Rufus Dawes will be a scathing, bitter, old **** just like Carl's was."

Same pseudonym, different writer. Just a hunch on my part.

Crush 04-30-2009 01:16 AM

They are mocking Carl. I can feel it.

Jethopper 04-30-2009 02:05 AM

Those who don't give Pioli a chance, only do so because they know nothing eles.

Seems we have a few of these around here. LMAO

Rufus Dawes is Bob Moore. Bob Moore is the Chiefs PR man.

I'm sure Pioli is aware of Rufus' existence, but I wouldn't think it would be his job to do anything about it. Clark clearly said that Pioli was in charge of football operations and that someone else (currently Denny Thum) was in charge of the business side. PR is definitely under the latter.

Am I wrong in remembering that Pioli didn't want much of anything to do with the business side of the house? This is far more of a Clark Hunt than Scott Pioli issue, IIRC.

I hope that's what it is.

So the Chiefs have a completely autonomous PR department printing stories about Pioli and his staff and critiqueing their moves and Pioli gets no say in it?
