The Pioli Watch Thread

I'm hijacking the thread starter to use for an "updates" area. Sorry cardken. Here are a few recent updates:

Last updated 1/13/09 2:30pm CDT (final update)

New England Patriots vice president of player personnel Scott Pioli has agreed to become head of football operations for the Kansas City Chiefs, two NFL sources confirmed to ESPN's Michael Smith.
The vice president for player personnel at New England, Pioli, 43, is close to Patriots coach Bill Belichick and has been with the Patriots for nine years. Pioli would find a warm welcome in Kansas City. At the last Chiefs' home game, shortly after the embattled Carl Peterson resigned after 20 years as president, general manager and CEO, several signs were spotted in the crowd proclaiming, "We want Pioli." Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

All the leaks are coming from the New England/Cleveland side of the story.

I used to post on the Royals board over there, and the stuff Athan made about baseball was even lamer. He was getting laughed at over there, and those guys didn't even know his reputation. The funniest one I remember was that the Royals were close to acquiring Alex Rodriguez.

That was an epic fail and it still gets brought up in damn near every trade thread.

But at least he may get credit starting a possible Hall of Classics thread.

Not to bust your balls, Zach but from whom?

Posnanski's been writing for SI and Whitlock for AOL and now Fox Sports.

But the KC Star Sports section getting national acclaim?

They don't break any stories of nationwide interest (i.e. the SF Chronicles and the Balco scandal), they don't cover high-profile teams like the Lakers, Dodgers, Mets, Giants or Yankees (let alone the Cubs or Red Sox) and their beat writers (like Teicher) flat-out suck.

X is always the worst at X without any doubt.

It is stupid and makes the user seem like all they want to do is hear themselves bitch.

Maybe the Star gets points for layout or something, but overall, the writing is horrible.

Other than JoPo, the STL-PD blows the Star out of the water when it comes to writing.

Rick Hummel is in the Baseball HOF, and Bernie Miklasz and Bryan Burwell is as good as it gets for a small market fish-wrap. Jim Thomas is one of the highest regarded beat writers in the NFL. He makes Teicher look like a 5th grade essay writer to win a contest for free Monster Truck tickets.

I think Zach is probably talking about Poz and Whitlock.

Posnanski is regarded as one of the best baseball guys in the country. I agree though that the Star's overall coverage is lame, but who reads the newspaper nowadays anyway?
