Pioli doesn't affect your ability to contact potential GMs at all. Quote:

A lot of candidates will not talk to the team because there is already a person in place. That is a basic principle that most professionals follow. |

Cowher isn't going to refuse a call from Clark just because Pioli is still employed. Don't be naive. And outside of Cowher and Gruden, he CANNOT TALK TO OTHER CANDIDATES until the season is over. |

As TTC stated yesterday, though, it's likely that Clark is completely lost on this thing, rocking in a corner, sobbing and sucking his thumb. |

And to me, placating the fans takes a backseat to GETTING IT RIGHT. Get the right GM and the right coach and the fans are inherently placated by the WINNING. |

Thus, what would be the negative of firing him and promoting Farmer in an interim role? You don't have to kill Farmer in the process, a statement like this would suffice: "Ray Farmer, who has long been a valued man in our front office, will be our interim GM, but this position will be filled from someone outside the organization. We're going this direction not because Farmer is not qualified for the job--he is--but because I believe we need an outside perspective to get this great organization back to where it needs to be." /Hunt |

If Clark knows he is firing Pioli, having him around for another 6 weeks does absolutely no good. In fact it could cause an issue if Pioli realizes he is getting canned and tries to **** things up on the way out. Pioli has proven he is self centered,I doubt he will take his termination very well.

JMO but a lot of the fans want it now because they fear that if we were somehow win a couple of games and the SOC movement was to lose ground that Pioli might not get fired.

If he's fit to fire now, nothing he does from here on out will prevent him from getting fired at the end of the season. Winning a couple of games isn't going to suddenly "redeem" him in the eyes of anybody. |

If he's contacting others for GM jobs, don't you think they can figure out who they'll be replacing?
