Dave Stewart on Metro Sports said it was a done deal last night. FWIW.

I have no idea what to think. Just gotta wait and see I guess.

Honestly I don't think anyone really knows. Clark is keeping his thinking only to himself which is the right way to do it.

Yeah, his report has been mentioned. I was hoping someone with some more juice had joined the party.

do you know Ron Borges(?)..he's a boston sports writer, i guess

he was interviewed in 810, said we shouldn't hire Pioli...i didn't hear it but that's the gist according to the hosts

He WAS a Boston Sports writer before he was fired for plagarism.

Whatever sports writer you hate the most, multiply by ten, and that's how EVERY Patriots fan in New England feels about Borges. He is universally despised. I'm not kidding. For whatever reason, he HATES Belichick and has been unrelenting in his criticism from day one of the Belichick era. As you can imagine, given that Belichick actually, you know, wins, this has made him very unpopular 'round here.

lol....thanks, that what I was curious about

I heard most of the interview on 810 this morning with the Boston writer... he didn't seem too hi on Pioli, giving all credit to Belichek...

he said he is just the kind of guy who wants people to "want" him but will always end up going back to his "old girlfriend"

that interview took a lot of the shine off of Pioli for me, but I'm still going to be happy if we get him

the Talking Can 01-08-2009 08:07 AM

if we manage to sign Pioli while watching WPI get donkey punched hanging naked upside down from a ski lift, this will be

Channel 9 and Lenny Dawson and metro sports are the ones that I saw.

I was thinking about this this morning. Suppose the Kraft's told Pioli to go out and find out what his market value is, only to have him come back and have the Patriots match his top offer... hmmmm....

Mr. Plow 01-08-2009 08:29 AM

My sources high up in the local high school football team indicate Pioli contract is signed meaning he is the Chiefs GM. They are simply waiting until 3 days after Ramadan 2009 before announcing.
