Because you don't want him around evaluating college personnel and making draft decisions.

Something that Pioli somehow gets a pass for because he was in Siberia last year.

Oops, I mean New England.

This is getting ridiculous already. So one franchise makes an insanely dumb decision to hire a guy who worked for a pretty successful organization mid-year, we should to?

You really want to mimic the Browns decisions? Really? They hire Eric Mangini and give him full control, which is the worst decision in all of football.

You missed my point entirely.

People around here have been giving Pioli a pass based on the speculation that the reason the Chiefs draft was so poor is because he had to work with "Herm's Scouts". Which BTW, is a ridiculous and ill-legitimate excuse.

I pointed out the only logical reason for his firing is that Mangini had seen enough of his work and decided that he didn't want him to scout and oversee the 2010 draft.

Well they're saying the reason was that he and Mangini couldn't get along, and that Mangini was also trying to save his own arse.

And something about Kokinis talking to former co-workers and saying he should have never taken the job...
