You may have noticed I left out all of Scott Pioli's Chiefs teams.

2009 -8.4
2010 -0.7
2011 -8.1


Ouch. Even when Pioli fielded a winning team, it had a negative rating. Overrated team? Yes.


We're about to get to the 2012 Chiefs. Hang tight.


Are you ready for this, Scott?

Just go there and sort by the column at the far right. SRS, OSRS and DSRS.

:(

IT'S ONLY THE PRESEASON. JFC these games don't matter!

:(:shake:

This is absolutely ****ing awesome.

**** it. Let's just print everything. This, the Cassel doc, the Pioli doc, the Hamas letter and just mail that ****er to Clark. Email too.

I'm sure he already knows most of this (I would hope) but lol, getting a ****ing giant envelope just filled with statistics exposing Pioli all at one time and in one sitting would be fantastic IMO. Clark also seems like the kinda guy who would actually sit down and read every single bit.

I think it's time to step up the game.

Here's the bottom line for me:

It's not just that they're losing. It's not JUST that they're HISTORICALLY inept.

It's that they're also "my shit don't stink" assholes that treat the fans like sheep and their Patriot Way buddies like kings.

I love football and I love the Kansas City Chiefs. But I'm at the point where I WISH to all that is Holy that I could quit. I would love nothing more at this point than to not care about this team anymore and move on.

More evidence.Great.

I didn't need to see all of those numbers, as I posted last week this was the worst team I have ever seen take the field for the Chiefs in 43 years of fandom.

Watching them has now become more of a curiosity, similar to gawking at a 11 car pile up in the opposing lanes of traffic.

You slow down to look, then you move on, thanking God it wasn't you.

My rival fan friends feel sorry for me, and show pity.

That is just ****ing unbelievable

That's ... well ... amazing.

If I were in charge of SOC, I'd email that document to every media outlet on the planet.

Great research effort, Mr. GoChiefs.
