Please, leave this discussion.

Your intent is to make excuses for a man earning $5 million dollars a year whose past 12 months has been a complete failure.

Please, go back to the Coalition or wherever the **** you came.

It's becoming regoddamndickulous.

FACT: Pioli conducted the draft with Carl Peterson's scouts and Personnel Directors
FACT: Pioli hired Ray Farmer, Director of Pro Personnel (the most important guy in the organization when it comes to scouting players from other teams) on June 7th
FACT: Pioli hired Phil Emery, Director of College Scouting (the most important person in terms of college scouting and easily the second most important person outside of Pioli as it relates to draft decisions) AFTER the draft was conducted

That's not being full of shit. Those are facts and they are indisputable. He drafted with someone else' lame duck scouts. He drafted with Peterson's Director of College Scouting. He conducted combine evaluations with Carl Peterson's scouting network. He opened the free agency period with Carl Peterson's Director of Pro Personnel. Feel free to tell me where I'm wrong on any of this.

Like I said, if he ****s up in 2010, then we're in really big trouble. And I've said repeatedly that I hate the decisions Pioli has made so far. But give me a ****ing break. I'm not going to overreact and say that despite the million major front offices changes made in the past year that Pioli should have had everything figure out by now.
