Oh it is VERY true. And it is COMPLETELY OVER; NO GM JOB, MANAGER, OR OTHERWISE.

It's a complete FINISH, IN EVERY POSSIBLE WAY.

[RedJohnson]

Hallelujah, Praise the Lord!!!!

It's a beautiful day in KC!!!!!!

[Guru]

Let the party begin. This is soooo long overdue it is not even funny. time to break open the bubbly.

[RedJohnson]

I literally jumped out of my seat running for the radio when I saw that scroll across the screen!!!!

[jmlamerson]

This means Herm's gone too. This is by far the highlight of the Chiefs season, right here.

[jerhart]

This is great....bring in the Chin!

[Guru]

The ultimate Christmas gift!!!!!

[Vandelay]

Thank God. Finally. Maybe this team can finally move forward.:bananen_smilies046:

[Darth CarlSatan]

It is a beautiful day.

[Guru]

Don't let it get away.

[leoness8]

hahahaha this is hilarious....these posts just get better and better

[JMDChiefs58]

Just heard the good news on the NFL Network. I screamed so loud my throat hurts!!!

Now get Herm out of there as well.

[mudslapper]

This is the greatest early Christmas present ever!!!!

[Three7s]

YES!!!! THIS HAS MADE MY SEASON!! :yahoo:

[nigeriannightmare]

A moment of silence for the late Queen Carl, if you would please...someone pass me a beer or 9 please!!!!:bananen_smilies046:

[Hayvern]

Beautiful, this makes the swallowing of the bitter pill of this season so much more easier to take. Now if Herman would take that job at San Diego State.

[ChiefsGal]

WOO HOO!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS KANSAS CITY!!!!!!

[m0ef0e]

I can't believe he actually resigned... I'm really almost in a state of shock. Tonight will be a night of much celebration. Let the festivities begin!

[Miller]

That is the greatest news ever!!!

[Guru]

He didn't resign by choice. Trust me.

[PawnshopMarimba]

Wow! I never would've believed this were possible. Thank you Clark Hunt for a truly fantastic Christmas present to the entire Chiefs Nation!

[Grey144]

This is indeed some of the best Chiefs news I have heard in awhile. However I hate to dampen things but lets not get way way way excited since Mr. Hunt is an unknown as to who he is going to bring in. It is still great news but now we have to wait to see who clark hunt replaces him with. I can only hope it will be someone better but we just do not know yet.

Let's also hope that Herm Edwards joins him on his cruise to Unemployia.

[PawnshopMarimba]

I only wish I could've been a fly on the wall when the news was delivered. Carl's an arrogant man by nature, so I can't help but wonder if he took a few parting verbal shots at anyone...

[nigeriannightmare]

He didn't resign by choice. Trust me.

Maybe Clark does have some stones and cares about the Chiefs, I for sure thought that Clark was gonna let him fill out his contract. He resigned from all three positions right, so that means he won't even oversee the rennovations at Arrowhead?

Who's on the short list, anybody know.

[slc chief]

thank god woooooooooooooohooooooooooooooooo it is finally over christmas came early

[CHIEFS_FN_ROCK]

the guy on espn just since cark is gone that herms job is in jepordy and could be gone after this season...wooooohhhhhhooooooo be gone!

[jap1]

Im so excited. I dont know what to do. Its like a beam of sunlight representing hope is now shining down upon all of us in the Chiefs Nation. I dont even know how to celebrate... hmm I have an idea ...
:bananen_smilies046: :yahoo: :toast2: :yahoo: :drunkhb: :beer:

[leaves]

christmas just came early. herms def. not sold on his job anymore. I hope this doesnt sell out Thigpen and the rookie players' experience though. These things tend to change everything.

[tammietailgator]

OMG - I was at work when I heard the news... I was actually in an exam room with the vet and heard the receptionist yell it in the lobby! We all (including the clients!) started high fiving!!!!! :bananen_smilies046::bananen_smilies046::bananen_s milies046::bananen_smilies046::bananen_smilies046: :bananen_smilies046::bananen_smilies046::bananen_s milies046:

Yes that would make this season a blessing.

[jerhart]

...nothing is perfect as for San Diego State has already found their new HC. And sadly it's not Herm.

[Big Daddy Tek]

Wow. Im shocked. I really hope we get a great GM. They said Herms future is in the hands of the new GM. However it works out, I hope the youngsters stick together. Does this mean that we actually get free agents this year? That would be awsome!!!!

[tornadospotter]

I must say now, I am totally surprised by this news, I figured, and have stated on this forum, that cp would be the gm until the end of his contract and when Arrowhead renovations were done. Maybe Clark has found his?..............

There's something in the midst of all these personnel woes that everybody tends to forget; it's the players who eventually step up and say "This is MY team and MY House".
Today's personnel decision only brings that day closer.

[tammietailgator]

Did you all know that every time a bell rings.... an angel gets its wings! Did you also know that when that same bell rings .... Clark gets his ...... !:lol:

[tammietailgator]

BALLS!!!!

Ok, I said it.... every time a bell rings Clark gets his balls!!

:yahoo: That felt good

[josh1971]

I will jump in with some good cheer. I think it's great that the franchise will get some much needed freshness at the president/GM level, but let's hope that this wipes away the rest of the bad remnants (meaning- Herm). Maybe Clark reads boards like this, and after so much of it, he just had to act.

For whatever reason this all happened, I hope the Chiefs get a GM actually committed to winning. Maybe that will require a head coach that knows how to do that.

[Chiefs 4]

The timing is good. Let's not forget that before Carl Peterson got here and hired Schottenheimer, this was just about the sorriest franchise in the NFL. The Chiefs never made it to a Super Bowl with Peterson in charge, though two 13-3 records and a bunch of playoff appearances in the 90's weren't bad. But it became evident that he couldn't push the right buttons to get the Chiefs over the hump. Vermeil was a decent try---but when he hired Herman Edwards, it became obvious that this has passed him by---that he was in his own world, stuck in Philadelphia, circa 1980. Maybe the nostalgia made him feel good, but the decision to bring Herman Edwards in set the Kansas City Chiefs back about 5 years. It's really a damn shame. Now, the GM and Coach must both go. This means we'll be starting over, and with the current young roster, we might as well be an expansion team. Yes folks, forget the "close" games. When you win 2 games, you have a very bad team. Make no mistake---we have a few good parts, but a really bad football team, soon to be without a GM and hopefully without a coach. Like I said, an expansion project. Good news is that today, you can build fast. Even dating back to Jimmy Johnson in Dallas, you could go from 1-15 to playoffs in a few years.

[PawnshopMarimba]

Yup, The Miami Dolphins continue to be a beacon of hope, as they seem to have turned their completely HOPELESS franchise around in one off season.

Two of my favorite things, Darth! Thank ye!

[Coach]

CP made several bad decisions that led to his demise. The huge contract that he gave LJ. The way he handled the Jared Allen situation. The way he handled the Trent green situation. The way he handled the Tony Gonzalez situation this season. The hiring of Herm. I could go on, but I'd rather move on.

The good news is that you have some fans willing to pitch in and help.

It might take some serious Scrubbing Bubbles to clean up all the arrogance that oozed off of that man for the past 2 decades.

I think you will need something more than scrub brushes. I was thinking something along the lines of an industrial strength sandblaster and industrial strength bleach may start to get the stench of failure out of that office. :lol:

Just bring hotdogs and marshmallows. Bonfires don't require any cleaning.

I just listended to Clark Hunt this morning. I was too busy at work yesterday to here all the detail, but it sound like Clark has heard the fans. He basically said everything that I have been saying since before this season started.

Just wished he realized it sooner.

[windwalker]

Resignations are quite often a nice option to being

I just had an awful thought.... what if they just move Herm upstairs??? That would make both our wishes come true.. new GM and new coach... but not what I would like to see...

[dbolan]

This is just the beginning of the end. In order for it to "be over", Herm must go and Marty or Cowher should enter.

At a minimum..Herm gone and a good, solid, gritty coach at the helm.

[Darth CarlSatan]

With Carl gone, expect a Marty/Bill Combo to be given serious consideration.
Clark's comments today alone lean to one of those two guys being approached.

We had some good debates on this forum, and one of them was the voice of the fan. If you don't go to the game, if you don't buy all the crap, not only Chiefs tickets/food/parking, etc.. but not buying hotel rooms, dinners, rental cars. All that is huge pressure. It is a business, and by us just saying NO... or in our case F NO, it had to happen. Did you see the stands in that game Sunday? Empty. I hated losing, but if that's what it finally took, then so be it.

Marty was a good coach but does that equate to a great GM? I think Clark should look at the Patriots Asst GM. He has proven experience. Sorry I don't remember the guys name at the moment.

[Big Daddy Tek]

Marty isnt even in consideration guys. I said this on the other thread also, The chiefscrowd homepage has an article with just about all of the guys that you would want to sign as GM. PersonallyI would like Floyd Reese or Scott Pioli.

[Pro_Angler]

chin gm/coach then he might take the job otherwise never ever

The most solid candidate I've heard of so far is the Pittsburgh guy.
If he comes, Cowher might come with him depending upon their working relationship, and Cowher's desire to Coach again.
