I'm astounded. Some of this shit is cruel and abhorrent. I don't like Scott Pioli. I don't like his management style or his football decisions. I don't like his apparent arrogance. I protested and held up a sign with his face and "FRAUD" written above it. But if he were in the same room as me right now, I'd buy hin a non-alcoholic beer and give him the mother of all man hugs.

agreed 100% what he supposedly saw is tragic. I wouldnt want to be in his shows. But that doesnt change anything. His way has broken this organization.

I agree with this post. But what Belcher did this morning is 100% personal. He murdered his girlfriend and probably decided pretty quickly that he was gonna end his own life after he did it. So what does he do? Drives to Arrowhead to thank Pioli and Crennel for everything. That doesn't sound like his job with the Chiefs had anything to do with what happened. In fact, it makes it sound like his role with the Chiefs and those he worked with were one of the best things in his life. It meant enough to him to acknowledge Pioli and Crennel and say goodbye to them before implementing his "exit strategy". THe fact that he chose to spend his last moments on this earth with them and utter his last words with those people tells me he probably liked them.

This....

I guess that was the point of this thread. This incident is a real-life situation, obviously. So I ask if you allow those real-life emotions cross into your football fandom world?

Do you still hate Pioli today...or do you feel for the guy what he witnessed and wish for him to succeed to some degree for the remainder of the season? Or are you able to separate the two, feel for the man...but still call for his firing?
