Chiefs Rumor from Shanahan's son - Page 28

Garcia Bronco · 01-22-2009, 09:12 AM

I talked to Kyle Shanahan last night, Mike's son. I ran into him at Cherry Creek Mall in the Oakley Store here in Denver. He said his dad is going to coach this year and most likely for the Chiefs. There is one other team out there that could land his Dad, but KC is closer to Denver and Shanahan would like to be as close to Colorado as possible. Anyway, take it for what it's worth.

Actually, Garcia and I are still good friends. We were probably both being stupid, but most likely more me than him. Some stuff was going on in my life at the time that we had that falling out that made me act irrationally. But as far as I know, we're on friendly terms and I'd give him the shirt of my back if he wanted it. But he wouldn't. It's not an Oakley shirt.

And a few other things...

1) Garcia and Taco John are mortal enemies. They had a falling out about a year ago; and rumor has it, they can't be in the same room together now. I seriously doubt Garcia would participate in a game suggested by Taco John;

2) Garcia is something of a trust fund kid. He lives in a house he inherited from his grandfather (guy invented a dental implant, or some damn thing), and he lives just up the street from Shanahan's house (the old one - not the ginormous one he's building);

3) Garcia and Kyle Shanahan both went to Cherry Creek High School. I think Garcia graduated two years before Shanahan, but they know each other. Garcia loves to tell this story about how he almost accidentally took Kyle Shanahan's finger off in shop class. It's certainly not unthinkable that they could run into each other in a mall, and have a cordial conversation; and

4) I've heard before that Kyle Shanahan is a bit of a blowhard. Apparently, Kubiak almost didn't hire him, because he worried about Kyle's problems with indiscretion. For example, one of the first things Kyle did after getting hired in Houston was to tell the Houston media that he and Chris Simms got each other's names tattoo'd on their ankles. He doesn't seem to have a lot of common sense in his interaction with the public.

So, Garcia's story is far from implausible. I did get a little bit of a chuckle about how it spread like wildfire in this thread. Nevertheless, I think there's at least a decent chance it's true.

That sounds nice and all but I don't know what to believe anymore. It is hard to trust you guys after reading that thread on Orange Mane.

In his defense, he's light years beyond where he was just a few years ago. I actually kind of like Taco now.

I got tired of reading the stupidity at about page 14....

So the basic premise is that a major sports news scoop was obtained by a random conversation with a stranger in a mall, while the corresponding news of Herm being fired is a closer held secret than the location of Hoffa's body.

Herm would have every reason to be open about his firing, and almost no reason not to. And the Shanahan family would have zero reason to tell Joe Random Bronco Fan anything.

It all goes way too much against common sense for me to buy in.

That's pretty much it.

Can we at least all agree that Claythan is a dirtbag?

He's not a dirtbag, but he definitely wants to hum the "shanny".

Tell me about it.

I don't blame GRob. I blame Vermeil for hiring his incompetent ass in the first place.
