Can/should Kansas City to do this?

[RealSNR]

It pretty much can't be done. The Packers were acquired by the city in the late 30s in order to protect them from (ironically) Curly Lambeau, who wanted to move the team.

Also, in any case you would STILL have a board of directors and a chairman of some sort who runs the show and makes hires/firings. We could just as easily get another Clark Hunt in charge who doesn't want to fire Pioli (if that's what he really wants to do. Personally, I think he will fire Pioli)
