Yeah

Tom Moore better not retire. That would be horrible.

And Herm would have to be the DC. His lack of knowledge with running backs hurt the Chiefs badly.

GM

Scott Pioli was the Patty Cakes GM.

He drafted Brady, Cassel, Samuel, and the Patty Cakes front 3.

This evens things out a tad.

Belichick+Pioli+spygate = Dungy+Polian

Since we don’t have Dungy, it seems only fair they lose Pioli. :D

Can't agree with you more

I knew when Dungy resigned, Pioli would sign with another team in the near future.

Oh well at least unlike the Patty Cakes we still have all but 2 of dungies assistants.

When you said they were going crazy I was like “they cant be going tooo crazy right?” I was wrong!! They are ecstatic over there. They have an overflow thread for godssake! My best friend is a chiefs fan and he is now officially looking forward to next season.

Oh yeah they're going nuts

I’ve been monitoring their site for several days since the rumor of Pioli being a serious candidate and they are like kids on Christmas Eve over there. It’s been fun to watch.

Now I get to sweat for a few weeks about Pioli taking Ferentz with him

Leave our Kirk alone.

who?

This line will remain in my signature until the Colts draft Rashad Jennings in 2009.

The Iowa head coach

I doubt he’s leaving though. He’s got a son in high school here and one (who I went to school with) on the team.

But on the other hand him and Pioli are tight. Pioli even hired Ferentz’s oldest son to work with the Pats front office after his short time as a practice squad player was over.
