milkman -- you deserve a better summary of "things learned".

The Pioli-Haley feud was real and it dated back to the Tyson Jackson pick. Haley was not sold. Neither Pioli or Haley ever got over it.

Supposedly, Weis decided Cassel was unsalvageable very early on and refused to invest time in him. Haley took over Cassel's mentoring and any "improvements" in Cassel's play last year were due to his influence. Then Weis got the credit for the "improvements" and Haley couldn't stand for that. Hence ended Weis' tenure in KC.

Supposedly, Pioli is still sold and committed to Cassel going forward.

So the upshot:

Pioli loves Weis.
Weis hated Cassel.
Pioli loves Cassel.
Haley loves Cassel.
Pioli won't listen to his guy Weis about Cassel.
Haley is on the same page as Pioli on Cassel, yet they openly war.
Obviously the whole franchise is dys-****ing-functional.
Meanwhile Clark fiddles while Rome burns.
