So we have Al Davis now only 40 years younger. That should work out well for all of us more than 20 years old or so. Looking forward to watching this guy tinker and bumble**** his way into irrelevance over the coming decades. If he's meddling in actual football operations while ignoring results, he's welcome to fist himself. And if he's firing a GM because he doesn't like a cap situation, regardless of the record, then he's meddling in football operations.

I hate losing him and just trying to make sense of it. But I think it's obvious the writing was on the wall ever since that article was printed. There was too much specifics like Dorsey being paid among the lower tier of GMs. That article would sting any owner and show lack of loyalty on some level. You would hope it's a business is business type deal and that works both ways. Either way it sucks to see happen

The escape clause isn't a logical conclusion.
John Dorsey didn't leave tens of millions of dollars on the table for a chance at a job he has maybe a 25% chance at. There's nothing 'logical' about that theory at all unless it's also combined with Hunts refusal to attempt to buy it out. One of those cannot exist without the other.

I have no doubt we will, but in terms of personnel decisions and all that, I imagine I will be much more critical going forward.
I don't think our draft philosophy will do a 180, but I'm confident that it was Dorsey's war room on draft day. |

Regardless moving forward the new guy will make mistakes as did Dorsey. One thing I liked about Dorsey is he was able to walk away from his mistakes. That is something IMO that plagued this franchise for years. Obviously Cassel, Jackson, etc for Pioli. During the Vermiel years it was guys like McCleon.

As some know, I used to work for a company that had a sponship with the Chiefs. Owner has been a STH for decades and has been at events with Clark many times, including the one where I briefly met Scooter Poole.
I don't work there anymore but I know people that do and just text them to ask what the owner of the company is hearing through the grapevine. |

I'll say it again. I'm devastated by the sacking of John Dorsey. He was IMO the very best thing this organization had.
Do you guys realize that we might have been the very best team at drafting overall for the last four years? And everyone knows drafting is absolutely key to building a championship team and perennial winner. |
