I wouldn’t put much past Pioli … would you?

it’s more like a “plant”

Final straw for Haley getting fired was: ‘Todd Haley and Dwayne Bowe had a major falling out, and…it culminated with Haley saying some horrific things to Bowe on the practice field, Bowe then went to Pioli and complained about this, SP told TH to stop it, and then TH mocked Bowe for going to Pioli to complain.’

Nick Wright – First and possibly last time I’ll quote him.

of firing a coach who has presided over more blowout losses in franchise history, including five of 27+ points in this year alone? Yeah, he must have been worried that fans would revolt over firing that guy.

remember, too … King didn’t break any “news” with the haley interview, that was posted 5 days ago here on AP in fanshots

Gerry Dulac: They do think the world of Dick Haley, which is why I think they granted his son, Todd, an interview. Todd Haley has had a difficult time getting any interviews since he was fired by the Chiefs, and part of the problem is his reputation for being unable to get along with players and, more importantly, his fellow coaches. The Steelers, in my opinion, are merely doing Haley a favor, which is why I also think they announced his interview on their website. Since when did they ever do that? Did they announce on their website that they interviewed Jim Caldwell for the same position two days earlier? Of course not.

They want to help Haley get the ball rolling again, as a favor to his dad. At least, that’s my opinion. Coaches who might know say Tomlin will not hire Todd Haley.

Then there was the cancelled team meeting in Chicago.

Could you imagine if that was said about one of your favorites? You’d be ripping them to shreds about assuming what someone is thinking by their look.

The look from Kansas City Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli told you everything you needed to know.

Last February at the annual NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis, Pioli was strolling along a second-floor walkway above a large room at Lucas Oil Stadium where the media had been designated to work. Pioli looked down, as he is want to do, and observed then-Chiefs coach Todd Haley talking to a group of four reporters.

You could almost feel the contempt drip down and splatter Haley and the scribes.

To hope for negative light to be cast on the team you claim to love is misguided and borderline sanctimonious.

Burning down the city to save it isn’t the way things are done.

Unbelievable that you would justify being in this boat, ups. Very disappointing

fans from other teams call us “The Cheaps.”
