My favorite conspiracy theory to come out of all of this is that Todd Haley's paranoia that Kansas City Chiefs facilities and phones were bugged during Phil Emery's time as Director of Scouting at Kansas City now looks oddly justified, as Emery learned from Pioli and Hallas Hall is bugged. It's not to say that the conspiracy theory has any legs, but the way this whole thing has played out is completely bizarre. Kromer apparently talked to Rapoport on Thursday after the Cowboys game, was confronted by Trestman about it the next day, and then on Monday gave what apparently was an incredibly awkward and seemingly forced apology to the entire offense, resulting in Biggs' article going up yesterday, and then followed by a really shaky press conference today. It's possible Kromer realized he made a mistake after talking with Rapoport and fessed up to Trestman, but the timeline for all of this, along with how it all has been handled, has made very little sense to me if that's the case. From what I've read and heard, none of this has come across as particularly genuine and instead has seemed forced. It'd make a bit more sense if Hallas Hall were bugged and Trestman found out that way, but if Kromer is being forced to go through all this crap, it's not doing anyone any good. It's just making things worse. Regardless, what a [expletive] mess.
