Lamar, in large measure, got a pass in dark times because he had a very affable public persona. He was a naturally likeable person who went out of his way to present and sustain the every-man image. He was damn good at it, too. You got the feeling that Lamar sincerely cared about the team, the community, and the fans.

There was also the fact that he was responsible for bringing the Chiefs to Kansas City ... that buys you a lot of points ... not to mention the early success.

That's why it's so important that Clark carve his own niche and identity for himself and his team ... if, that is, he is serious about fielding a successful, winning franchise.

Keep in mind also that we're talking about an elderly man who's health was getting worse as each Chiefs season did.

Then we're going to berate that elderly man with "win now!" statements and banners?...

Two really good posts. Lets be real here. Clark is a business man, not a football man. And quite honestly, I don't want a Jerry Jones. **** that cocksuck.

Let me put it another way. Clark, I assume has massive money invested in the stock market. But I bet he doesn't make trades himself. He probably has some sort of broker. It should be the same thing with football. Concurrently, he should objectively review their performance. If his broker is ****ing off or taking too many risks or whatever, he should get the ban hammer. Same with football men. If he makes the team an embarrassment, he should get the ban hammer. We'll see.

Clark Hunt runs the Chiefs like a business. Something that Manning said when he chose the Broncos, its all about the football. I don't think it will ever be all about the football with Hunt. Its why he chose Pioli, so that he could make all the football decisions. Hunt needs to be fired.

Your and Idiot !
