Chiefs Pioli obviously has a bad reputation - Page 3

Chieftain58 · 03-12-2012, 10:30 PM

Everyone knows this guy came in here thinking he was the next savior, He obviosly believed it himself and his ego has been put into place with the less then stellar decisions he's made with the draft, signings, secretive ways etc.. is an embarrassment to this organization...

Mannning won't even give him the time of day.. sad for the club that started the AFL.....

Clark better man up and get rid of this(metaphor)ing (Slang)hole...

Plenty of stories of KC pretty impolitely denying access to the facilities, to information... hell, Pioli didn't even interview or respond to Arrowhead Anxiety.

And now it's possible that Peyton Manning may sign on the dotted line without ever visiting the team that has the best situation for him.
This has a lot more to do than just Romeo. If Peyton doesn't visit the Chiefs, it's pretty clear that he has no respect for our front office. Which is sad, because apparently he has respect for Bud Adams.

Yep. And what I haven't really figured out is that the Hunt family has always been kind and respectful to Peyton. He has been here many times for the 101 banquet heck he just spent the whole day here in KC not too long ago and Mitch Holthus was with him the whole time.

Quote:

"I spent a day with Peyton Manning in Kansas City," Holthus told Kietzmann. "He's got his own empire with different sponsors but he came in and Sprint had me basically host him for a day. It was one of the best days I've had in my professional life.

"One, the guy is fabulous. He has a great personality. It's kind of what you see is what you get. But he likes Kansas City. He likes Kansas City a lot. I think one of the pluses about Kansas City is the fact that, if you think about a market that most assimilates Indianapolis and what he's been able to play in the last several years and the framework of how the organization is structured, and the market that he's in...he can handle being in a market like New York like his brother is but I get the sense from him that he doesn't want every breath analyzed.

"He appreciates the fans here. He's talked about it with me. He appreciates Kansas City and the passion for the franchise so it would be the closest thing to Indianapolis he can find. That would be a positive for him. I think he can also appreciate the sense that there's a young team being built around him with a defense that could be very, very good and with the right pieces put together on offense and they could be very, very good."

Well duh...

1. Chiefs have the cap space to sign Manning and then some
2. Kansas City is clearly the best option (besides HOU) to win another SB given the talent that would surround him on offense and the defense that would come with it.

3. Great fanbase. Not that it really matters - but his signing would be Joe Montana v 2.0, this city would explode with excitement, and ST sales would skyrocket, so for Clark, there wouldn't be ANY reason not to give Manning the coin to come play here, it would more than pay for itself I would think at least.

4. Playing for a player's coach that delegates pretty much everything to his asst coaches on offense. Given Manning's credentials as a badass mother****er at QB, this would pretty much open the playbook for anything he would want to do.

5. Weather isn't great in Decemberin KC. But this is football and it's not like it's GB or BUF, he's a gamer, I mean he's strongly considering DEN for crying out loud, so it can't be that big of an issue, if at all.

SO.......that means there are really only 2 options left:

1. Clark/Pioli never made a real effort to get Manning, and played it off like they did. And for Clark that would be just ****ing stupid as hell on his part but whatever. Such a move would only further prove that he doesn't give 2 shits about winning a SB. This is a guy that took away salaries from the people that were making $20-30k a year on the admin side of things during the lockout. This is a guy that will charge tickets to vets that served in the US military industrial complex and risked their lives when they were honored before a game, if they wanted to stay and watch. This is a guy that also too away privileges for the workers to come in and watch the game after they were done ticket punching/scanning etc. So yes, it is possible that Clark/Pioli really is THAT cheap.

2. In addition to #1....Pioli is a egotistical ****tard who still has his nose up NE's ass. Peyton may just want to stay away from that. Rightfully so....I would too. This is equivalent to you getting a job offer out of state for a shit ton of money, but would have to work for someone you absolutely can't stand, or you could take the lesser amount of coin somewhere else and be a lot happier working for someone you like. Personally I know what I'd rather do. There has been word spreading around the league about how SS gestapo this franchise is ran now. Makes players not want to come here....can't say I blame them.

carlos3652 · 03-12-2012, 10:56 PM

And for the record - I think Pioli has done an adequate job with the franchise other than the QB - and even then, there hasn't been much better in the last 3 years in FA that could have gotten us a franchise or elite qb....

The team has the key players outside the qb (most important I know) and his contracts have been cap friendly and reasonable. Once we have a qb - I feel confident he will continue to sign and find playmakers through the draft, to make us Super Bowl contenders year in and year out. My 2 cents

Maybe Peyton holds a grudge against Pioli because of his tenure in NE.

2 losing seasons and 1 season w/ a coach that knew what the **** he was doing....and boy we sure handled that well.....so well that we were all sold on the fact that he went to Florida for family issues, not because of his riff w/ Haley/Pioli...then comes back to the KC area only a couple seasons later to coach one of the worst football programs known to man

Or maybe KC is just a shitbag team that no one wants to play for.

rocknrolla · 03-12-2012, 11:00 PM

What I don't get is. Why was Clark on CNBC, not a sports network. As much as I hate to say it. I hope this blows up in their face.

I don't buy that for one second, and neither should you.

Isn't it ironic to hear how good the the Chiefs are & why the Chiefs are such a good fit for Manning, & then the same people say how horrible our GM is?

Been saying this. Manning might have the opinion NE is and was a nasty cheating franchise.
