You Can't Spell Scott Pioli Without a 'T' & an 'O'...(Sound Off)


Can you spell Scott Pioli without using a T or an O?  No you can't, so with every passing day T.O. goes without a contract I think perhaps we might be the landing spot of T.O.  After all, Scott Pioli brought a certain Randy Moss to the New England Patriots and transformed him from an overpaid loudmouth selfish jerk into a still overpaid, somewhat humble, consistant wide receiver.  Could this story play out again in Kansas City with the likes of the one and only Terrell Owens

 

After the jump a reminder of the Randy Moss deal and a little T.O. bio.

Star-divide

April 29, 2007...."The New England Patriots acquired veteran wide receiver Randy Moss from the Oakland Raiders in exchange for a fourth-round selection in the 2007 NFL Draft (110th overall).  New England acquired the 110th overall selection from the San Francisco 49ers on April 28 along with the 49ers' 2008 first-round selection in exchange for a 2007 first-round selection.

Moss, 30, is a veteran of nine NFL seasons with the Minnesota Vikings (1998-2004) and Oakland Raiders (2005-2006).  The 6-foot-4-inch, 210-pound wide receiver has played in 138 career games with 132 starts and has caught 676 passes for 10,700 yards (15.8 average) and 101 touchdowns.  Moss is one of seven players in NFL history to record more than 100 receiving touchdowns and is one of 27 players in the league with more than 10,000 receiving yards.  His 101 career receiving touchdowns rank fifth on the NFL's all-time list, his 10,700 career receiving yards rank 21st and his 676 career receptions rank 29th.  Moss has recorded seven seasons with 1,000 or more receiving yards and has caught 10 or more touchdown passes in 6 seasons." 

_____________________________________

Now alittle info a Terrell Owens.  Perhaps you have heard about him, but here are his stats:

Terrell Owens, 36, is a veteran of fifteen NFL seasons with the Buffalo Bills, Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles, and San Francisco 49ers.  The 6-foot-3-inch, 224-pound wide receiver has played in 205 career games and has caught 1,006 passes for 14,951 yards (average of 14.9 yards/reception) and a career total of 144 touchdowns.  T.O. averages 72.9 yards per game and he has only fumbled the ball 10-times in his career.  Most recently Terrell Owens played 16-games in the 2009 season with Buffalo where he had 55-receptions for 829-yards (15.1 average) and 5 touchdowns.

_____________________________________

Now if the price was right would Scott Pioli pull the trigger and bring Terrell Owens to the Kansas City Chiefs for his 16th season in the NFL?  Now that we don't have Larry Johnson on our team would we be able to handle Terrell Owens?  What would be the right price?  Would T.O.'s presense on the field provide greater opportunity for Dwayne Bowe and Chris Chambers to be open?  What are your thoughts when recalling Scott Pioli bringing Randy Moss to the Patriots?  Sound off!!!!

if it werent' for the issue with Haley

there would be a slight chance

but… no

this should be the most exciting Chiefs team in years! Most major needs filled with playmakers, and the league's best coaching staff... 10-6 a possibility?

exactly, bad blood

Haley and T.O. don’t like each other from their time in Dallas when Haley was T.O.’s wide receivers coach

I am on stuck...

I personally don’t like T.O., however if he would draw double coverage from opposing defenses then it might be a great situation considering his stock value is dropping with every passing day…

Also, I think he can put the past behind him especially if we are the only team to offer him a contract he would understand this is his last chance. His career is almost over. He could be a low risk and potentially a great reward or a pain in our ass for a year or two…

I think we should pursue the deal as long as we put the contract based on results. He might not get along with Haley, but he may love Charlie Weis and the other offensive coaches.

by ChiefsatWar on Jul 21, 2010 5:47 PM CDT reply actions  

Charlie Weis is as much of a hardass as Haley is.

At 36 this guy isn’t going to be drawing double coverage.

Personally, I would love to see him just go unsigned and fade off into obscurity, flailing and screaming for attention the whole time.

Toby is in HR, which technically means he works for corporate, so he's really not a part of our family. Also, he's divorced, so he's really not a part of his family.

Gag!

Puke! Barf!

Pioli isn’t so stupid as to ignore his head coach. Besides, T.O. made it clear enough when he announced (again) that he and Haley don’t get along. Forget about it!

TO again? please ...

this has been hammered out a million times, and just a few days ago TO hisself confirmed what we all have known for a long, LONG time: he and Haley do NOT get along … Haley will NEVER allow TO on his team, simple as that … besides, the guy is so over-the-hill why would anyone bother?

yup, only ONE thing left to do … say it with me, kids: it’s Dead Horsie Time

Well an anagram for Todd Haley is “Had Told Ye”…

As in TO Had Told Ye he’s not interested.

It’s never going to happen.

Let's put TOs probs with Haley aside for a minute

The dude is washed up. Did anybody see him play last year? All he does now is run around breaking routes and waving at the QB to throw him the ball as if they were playing a pick up game. He’s done fellas. He’s way to busy failing at having his own TV show. Let the poor man die his media insignificant death. That is the ultimate payback for the way he has conducted himself with little regard to WHICHEVER team’s colors he was wearing at the time.

I went to the Buffalo game last year and watched him play...

…his body language was hilarious. You could tell every time he the call was a pass play to him, he’d jump off the line like it was the most important play of the game. Whenever it was a running play, he looked like could barely be bothered to walk 5 feet from the line of scrimmage and appear to want to help.

My long, drawn-out predictions that no one cares about, nor will bother to remember:

1. Todd Haley will still be the Chiefs Head Coach up to the 2011 season.
2. Clancy Pendergast won't make it to the 2010 season and was never intended to. Last-minute hire for a position that needed to be filled.
3. Todd Haley will not be the OC at the start of the 2010 season.

I wonder which team TO is going to retire as a member of.

I guess at this point the Bills are stuck with his legacy.

Left Tackle is Brandon Albert's natural position.

by Idahochief on Jul 21, 2010 10:01 PM CDT reply actions  

That's an interesting question

He’s such a fucker, he may have to quietly retire as a journeyman because he’s only left chaos in his wake… err… other than Buffalo. But my god, he didn’t do shit there in his one year as a washed up old crone.

Oh...

And you can’t spell Scott Pioli without “Tit Spoil” either.

Predictions:

1) Fans will feel just scads better from mid-to-end of the 2010 season.
2) During the 2021 season, Ryan Succop will become the Chiefs’ all-time leading scorer with 1469 points.

What the hell is a tit spoil?

doesn’t sound like anything I’m interested in. Just like T.O.

Honestly, at this point in time how could anybody seriously consider TO?

Do people really not pay attention? How many locker rooms has the guy destroyed? The dude is a self-absorbed asshole. TO cares about one thing and that is the promotion of TO. He doesn’t care about whether or not his team wins — he cares about his stupid fucking VH1 show. TO is worthless to a team that actually wants to win a championship.

The saddest thing about TO for me has been the drooling sycophants in the ESPN-led sports media who have given this overrated asshole the attention he is so badly craving; they’ve enabled him. These sports “journalists” are like little kids begging for autographs.

Toby is in HR, which technically means he works for corporate, so he's really not a part of our family. Also, he's divorced, so he's really not a part of his family.

Agree. Same with Ocho Cinco.

But at least Chad catches ’most everything in reach.

T.O. is pretty much a D-Bowe with a bigger mouth. A beast after the catch, will rack up nice numbers, but a long history of drops, dating back to his days with SFO. At least with D-Bowe, we have a guy who can still cure the dropsies, and who doesn’t blame everybody else for his problems.

Not sure you meant it this way, but I am gonna rec you because TO’s mouth is literally larger than D-Bowe’s.

TO is to busy with VH1

and we are definately not the landing spot.

Are we the team to beat in 2010? I sure think so! Go Chiefs.

by jrcnc on Jul 22, 2010 6:46 AM CDT reply actions  

Formation

Where would T.O. play anyways. I know he would play WR but #1, #2 or slot? He is to big and slow for the slot and his he really better than Bowe or Chambers. I don’t think so not at this point in his career. He also has been known to drop a lot of balls. So he would be used to give Chambers and Bowe a rest or in a 4 or 5 wide set. Way to many problems with T.O. to sign him as a back up.

No, No, No,No

Stupid idea. Guy has definately lost a step. Of all those teams, he’s been an enormous diva and headache. That is not needed for a young team in the right direction. We don’t have enough “veteran leadership” to handle TO like the Pat’s had with Moss.

by Schefdawg on Jul 22, 2010 1:27 PM CDT reply actions  

I'm glad we posted that article a few days ago about how T.O. says he and Todd Haley don't get along...

that should put to rest any suggestion that T.O. is coming to KC ;)

hes too old plus him and haley dont get along

we just signed a bunch of good character players. I feel like T.O would only be good enough as our 3rd receiver and want more money than chambers and bowe plus hes a cancer. can’t have it
