Five boldest moves

Kansas City hiring Scott Pioli

Some people automatically put this one in the win column. Not me. Not after Charlie Weis fizzled at Notre Dame and Romeo Crennel bombed out in Cleveland. OK, so they were former New England coaches, and Pioli was a decorated GM. They still fall from the same tree. The question I have is this: How much was Pioli responsible for what happened in New England? "I guess we're about to find out," said one NFC general manager.

The good news is that Thomas Dimitroff had New England ties, too, and he circled the bases in his first turn as a GM in Atlanta. The bad news: Pioli's first draft with Kansas City: There are reaches everywhere. He also reversed the team's Get Young Now policy by adding 30-something discards like Bobby Engram, Zach Thomas, Monty Beisel and Mike Vrabel. You can do that when you're at or near the top, like New England. But this is a team that lost 23 of its last 25, for crying out loud.

Five biggest gambles

Kansas City acquiring Matt Cassel

I know what he did with New England. But that was the Patriots, and tell me where you find Randy Moss, Wes Welker, Richard Seymour and Bill Belichick in the 816 area code. Cassel was surrounded by a raft of talent on the field and on the sidelines in New England, and I'm still looking for that support group here. So he produced a couple of 400-yard passing games and won 10 of 15 starts. That was nice. But I want to see him reproduce it here. OK, I know what you're thinking: What do the Chiefs have to lose -- especially when all they surrendered for Cassel and Vrabel was a second-round draft pick? Try this: They're paying Cassel $14.65 million in guaranteed salary. If he turns out to be the next Scott Mitchell I know some bean counters in red suits who will demand explanations.

I was just helping your out so you didn't have to explain it for the 10000000000th time.

You're welcome.

You're constantly defending the honor of Mecca, Dane, Hamas, OTWP and the like. That really makes you a wonderful poster, and an asset to the board. Sorry you never took up thinking for yourself. If you did, you may find that people are willing to listen to what you have to say. But if hanging with the "cool kids" is your thing, go with it. Just don't deny being an apologist for the assholes on this board. That just makes you look stupid.

Says the biggest asshole.

Well, at least you're familiar with assholes.

Yeah.

Like we need to do this for the third time?

Go search the archives for your answer, Son.

You were the one denying the fact. I already knew the answer.

You're coming on here with less than 1,000 posts and less than ten posts that don't make you look like a drooling simian and trying to lecture me about contributing to the board? Get the **** out of here.

The worst part is that you think you're clever.

You obviously missed the point, Tough Guy.

I'm glad you had a poor upbringing and your daddy kicked the shit out of you everyday because you're SUCH a man now.

Oh yes, lets get to post counts, since that means anything other than I have a life, and you waste company time and money. What do we do next, compare cock size? OK, if you wanna, but why make yourself look worse than you already do?

Thank you.

It seems I only need to do this in regards to the n00bs.

For some reason, I rub them the wrong way.

(And maybe a few others).

Wow, you ARE a tough guy!

I'm impressed!

And belittling someone for having thousands of posts on a message board.

That's a good one! I'll have to remember that!

Look, you'll win if we compare cock sizes. I must say, for an orangutan you have remarkably good English.

You'd know if the time came. I'm quite certain as to what you are. The difference between you and me is anything I say on here I can say to anyones face. You, not so much. And with that, I'm out on friday night!

Then clearly, you don't know a ****ing thing about me, Hillbilly.
