What enthusiasm?

If this is true, then Whitlock is even more dead on about absentee ownership. No ****ing way Clark has a clue what his fans want if he thinks Pioli needs to be extended.

I'm sure he already has. It's the Chiefs way...You know - all ****ed up and $hit... :#

wait, has the rumor been substantiated?

The Chiefs will neither confirm nor deny.

FAX

It's really tough to be a fan of the Chiefs and Royals. Really tough.

John Elway at least gives a shit about his team and does what he can to improve them. I've actually been impressed with what he is trying to help do over there. Hate that I just said that.

I think Polio just became THAT GM as in THAT KICKER

The thought of this franchise finally hitting on a franchise QB only to have a GM so inept that he sabotages any potential success just makes too much sense for this town.

This.

One QB to rule them all.

Look, you dramatic bastards, it's ****ing simple:

IF THE CHIEFS WIN (Which means they've drafted a Franchise QB and he's working out well)

1. No one will give two ****s about what Clark hunt is doing or where he lives.

2. No one will give a shit how many Candy Wrappers are left in the hall or who's phones are tapped.

3. No one will be talking about the cost of the tickets, parking or beer

4. No one will remember the Haley debacle or the Cassel sexcapade.

Winning cures everything.

Drafting a Franchise QB is 90% of the solution.

If it's gonna be like this, I wish they'd just move the franchise to LA, so I could be done with them.

I hear ya - GO TEXANS!

So maybe Clark Hunt is just completely ****ing ignorant. Maybe that's what it comes down to.

So ... let's say that the Chiefs draft a good QB ...

Is Roleo the man you want developing that guy?

Zorn will likely be gone since he was unable to magically convert Cassel into a quarterback.

FAX

Only hope is Hunt started this rumor to see the feedback.

I don't subscribe to the theory that Coaches make QB's.

I believe it's the opposite.

So the rookie comes in fully cooked?

FAX

LMAO. I wouldn't let Pioli--let's be honest, everything is about Pioli when it comes to the Chiefs, and thus the coaches don't matter--watch my dogs.

I heard some Mitch Holthus on KK's show yesterday (I think). He was all Baghdad Bob spinning the season. "If we can win this game in Tampa, and we CAN win it, we get rested up a week. The defense is coming along. We play easier teams the rest of our schedule, the AFC West is wacky...we might be in the thick of this thing."

Yikes, and the Chiefs think the FANS are delusional????

Great prospects will develop into great players, despite whatever coaching is there.

You think the many, many OC's Cassel has had have failed to teach Cassel how to go through his progressions?

Or do you think that Cassel simply isn't talented enough to do it, despite being taught?

What great QB did the Colts staff "create"? Outside of Manning, If you want to credit them for that, no one.

Patriots?

Niners?

How long did it take the Steelers to find one?

Saints?

The QB either has greatness in him, or he doesn't. He'll either figure it out, or he won't.

I assure you, Tony Dungy didn't "develop" Peyton Manning.

I don't really care. Coaching makes the team, but it rarely can account for deficiencies in the player. Unless you're Jim Harbaugh, the QB that gets drafted is either going to be really good or really terrible.

This is like the business decision version of DT dying via car accident.

The franchise is lying in a hospital waiting for the blood clot.

Candlelight vigil for our Chiefs?

http://a.espncdn.com/media/nfl/2000/...oto/a_fans.jpg

This.

Great QB's carry shit HC's all the damn time.

I can't really recall seeing the opposite.

I can't wait till Brady retires. I wanna see how good Belichick REALLY is.

He is smart. He will retire, and later come back as a GM or President of football operation somewhere else.

I'm in on the vigil, but I'm going to keep pushing for a funeral.

Yeah, if this happens our only hope is a monumentally amazing QB comes along and saves us.

We need QB Jesus to save us from GM Satan.

So we have to trade for Tebow?

Guys, you can inhale from the magic bong all you want, but Peyton Mannings don't come along very often.

What is far more common is a situation in which a young quarterback has to be developed ... acclimated ... for awhile. How many times have we seen quarterbacks with high potential eventually bust because they were improperly handled in the beginning?

Sure, it's possible that you can strike gold with a rookie QB who requires no coaching or mentoring or assistance in making the adjustment to the NFL, but ... wow ... unlikely would be an understatement.

Let's be realistic for a moment. It makes far more sense to install a coach who can help a young guy develop ... regardless of his initial talent level or skill ... than simply hope that we hit on a Manning.

FAX

Is Pioli Clark's Cassel?

Perhaps there's some degree of ego in this.

Clark doesn't want to be wrong about Pioli.

Oh Bullshit

Harbaugh and Smith is the only example that comes to mind, really.

Some people might make the case of Andy Reid, but even then that's not really all that strong of an example.

And agreed about the Patriots. Bill is starting to look a bit old and crusty. He's put in a lot of years as an HC. I'm wondering if he doesn't just close up shop when Brady retires. I would hate that because I wouldn't get to see how he would do without his precious. Something tells me Ryan Mallett isn't a good long term answer for the team at all.

How do we know Clark isn't just trying to walk in the path of his father? Lamar put up with all kinds of bullshit for YEARS with this front office. I think we as fans tend to give Lamar the benefit of the doubt, though. He was the team's founder and really awesome to the fans for the entire run.

What's the difference between him and Clark? Is Clark just a cheapass because he doesn't live in Kansas City and hardly ever interacts with the team or community? Or is he loyal to a fault like his father was to Jack Steadman and Carl Peterson?

No one is saying they require no coaching.

Let me put it like this:

Some students have a hard time understanding Algebra.

You can explain an equation to Matt over, and over and over again. His tutor can explain it over, and over and over again.

And on Test day, Matt still hasn't figured it out.

Now, that same teacher can explain that algebra problem to Andrew just once, and Andrew has it down. Now, over the course of the next 16 tests, new formulas will have to be explained, but it won't take long for Andrew to figure them out, he'll just need some practice since these tests are constantly throwing new and exotic equations at him.

Eventually, because of Andrews acute ability to solve math problems, he'll get it all down.

Matt on the other hand.....well....16 tests into the course, and he's still struggling with that first equation.

We need an Andrew.

Not a Matt.

And there are plenty of Andrews in the NFL. There might be only one Peyton, but plenty of Andrews.

how can you fail at everything and be rewarded?

you save money for a cheap ass bastard like Clark who only cares about money...shove your cash cap up your ass

he hired two failed coaches
the staff is comprised of losers
he wasted 4 years on Matt Cassel
after 4 years, our QB roster reads like a sick joke: Cassel, Quinn, Panzi
Tyson Jackson
he hates the fans...this can not be said enough - HE HATES THE FANS
clark has sanctioned pioli's hatred of us by re-signing him
the fans hate this ****ing shit eating franchise because of scott pioli
no one with an ounce of pride will work for a micro-managing, arrogant, prick failure
our team blows yaks

just like the acquisition of Cassel meant that the next 4 years were over before they happened, the re-signing of pioli means the same...whatever the length of his contract, that is already a period of failure for the chiefs

jesus this is depressing...we are ****ed in the ass

This is crap. Absolute crap.

Remember the conversation about how people should just go tailgate out at the stadium but not go in to go watch the game? Bully idea. That will be my stance with these pissants until Pioli and his guys are out the front door.

My buddy scored me free club seats to the Ravens game. I won't even do that from here on out, as I might drop a few bucks on food and beverages.

Parking costs. That is as much as I'm willing to spend on this heartbreaking team.

Screw that put towards the cause instead.

Ok, everyone step back from the ledge until this is actually confirmed.

Somebody will take your place

True. But from what you know of this team from the years you've follwed it, do you believe for a second that Pioli has NOT been extended?

There is no shortage of dumb****s in the world.

Nope, while you are outside partying some dumbass will be eating hot dogs buying Cassel jerseys

I choose to hold my breath on this one. I don't want to believe clark is really this ****ing dumb.

Our best hope at this point is that Pioli is caught snorting cocaine off an underaged hooker's ass.

Only the law can unseat this despot.

when is that pussy failure going to step in front of the mic and take responsibility for being such a ****ing failure?

Brady Quinn used to play for TD Jesus......just saying.

I mean, Herm was a loser....but at least he was a nice guy.

SCOTT PIOLI IS FOOTBALL SATAN.

Never. He'll never admit he's wrong.

Romeo should be fired because he's a terrible head coach, not because there are far better QB gurus for Geno Smith to learn from.

If Romeo didn't suck as much as he did, I would be perfectly fine with him being the guy.

Great! As if we don't have enough shit to deal with, we've got to put up with Notre Dame homers!

Okay. Sold.

Pass the magic bong.

Hmmm ...

I have to say that a high-value rookie quarterback deserves a high-value head coach who can help teach him the Algebra stuff.

FAX

I'm not sure how I would answer the question if I were the Chiefs PR.

"Does Pioli have a contract extension?

Chiefs PR: LOL No."

I thought maybe one of you guys could shed some light on this.

That's a fake Chris Mortensen MR. Fax

Just looking at this photo makes me sick.

Oooohhhh ...

Sorry ... I have much to learn about the ways of twittering.

FAX THE KINDA STUPID ABOUT TWITTERING

I can see Clark Hunt doing this and not having the balls to announce it right now that its not popular. Fire the owner.

What's up with Pioli's fists?

And when did he go Japanese?

FAX

WOW! Could Pioli look more like a villain from a comic book?

"Damn those pesky guys from Chiefs Planet. They won't stop me though. Haha, no they won't."

It looks like Crennel is berating Pioli for making him play Cassel, and Pioli is about to cry and strike out in anger. Pioli's dad must not have taught him that he'd break his thumbs if he punches with them tucked in like that.

What a pussy. :facepalm:

Clay, we need a photo with Pioli that states....

"I found a team dumb enough to give me Godlike control!"

Crennel is laughing about the banner and Pioli is holding back tears.
Posted via Mobile Device

LMAO

Thanks, and good photo choice!

I think Crennel asked if he could put Quinn in if Cassel sucked it up again and Pioli is trying to keep from cold-cocking him.

" I think I'm turning Japenese, I think I am turning Japenese, I really think so !

I'm going to try and calm down and give Clark a chance to do the right thing.

I think he will.

Rescind the extension, if true?

Have you taken up crack in you spare time?

He better. Creating a movement to get rid of a QB and GM is one thing. If Clark tells us to kiss his ass we are pretty much screwed.

Clark Hunt is a smart man.

There is no way he cannot fire Scott Pioli at the end of this season.

There are eleven games left. Crazy ****ing shit could happen that could affect his decision.

Making a prediction this far in advance is folly.

Quinn will lead us to the Super Bowl!

Valedictorian at SMU...but does he know/care much about football?

Soon, we will see.

If we end with a top 5 pick, can he afford to not make wholesale changes?
