There's a New Sheriff in Town

Scott Pioli has been selected to replace Carl Peterson as Chiefs GM. Hooray! I can still remember about 20 years ago when King Carl took over the Chefs from Jack Steadman. Steadman was such a bad GM that there was a guy selling T-Shirts that said "Dump Steadman" on the front and "Fifteenth Annual Year of the Rebuilding" on the back. This is what the Chiefs had evolved into.

Pioli has a great track record at New England, and the Pats have a record any team would like to duplicate over the past ten years or so. What this also means is that Coach Herm Edwards and most/all of his assistants will be an unemployment statistic Bush can't be blamed for. Herm, all the best.

It still makes me wonder what will happen to Tony Gonzales. I hope he goes to a winner and the Chiefs make a trade that makes the Hershel Walker to Minnesota deal look good for the Vikes.
