Shut the **** up.
I've always taken Hunt as a mostly absentee owner who will swoop in to clean up a mess when he absolutely needs to... I mean, I don't keep up with Owner-GM or Owner-organization relationships across the league, much less Clark Hunt's day-to-day, it's just the feeling I get. And if Dorsey was actually stunned, that's more on Hunt than Dorsey... even if Dorsey thought he wasn't doing well, swooping in and firing him is obviously not good management.

Hopefully it's all BS though... when you're going on your 3rd GM in 8 seasons, it would certainly be nice to have a clear vision and established culture from the top.

47 years from our last Super Bowl, I'd welcome Jeffrey Dahmer as a GM if he could replicate Dorsey's recent success.

Dorsey defenitely had some successes in Kansas City, but he's also had his share of blunders.

I hear that Babe Ruth struck out a lot, too. Until they replace Dorsey with someone who drafts the next Tyreek Hill and Chris Jones, I'm going to petulantly pout.

The missing part of this equation is Clark's management style. Were these concerns communicated to Dorsey, and was he given a chance to change them? Obviously you'd think so... but you never really know.

"Could wear on people" and "communication style" - yes, these are totally sane reasons to fire one of the league's best executives a month before training camp starts...

And believing what CHunt is telling us - that it was a contract dispute. i.e., money, would be the saddest truth of all.

So you would have had no problem with continuing down the path we were going regarding contracts? You do realize that puts us in a very disadvantaged position when it's time to re-sign our own players much less get FAs? We barely have money to sign rookies this year. What about when we have to re-sign Hill and Jones and Mahomes?

Damage control by the Clarks.

If Hunt money had not been tossed around so cavalierly no one would give a shit that Dorsey doesn't always say "please" and "thank you" and dares to wear jeans and a sweatshirt instead of Armani around key Arrowhead sponsors.

FU Clark...go back to Texas, focus on raping the earth and buying Tavia new body parts because you suck at running your dad's team.

Nothing about this, the timing of the decision, Dorsey's performance, letting Ballard get away, extending Reid immediately - nothing about it says that we are getting the truth here.

There's no way I'm going to buy it was *simply* about money.

I'm also curious to find out what it was between Hunt and Dorsey. It's hard to separate speculation from truth at this point. It all SOUNDS like speculation.
