Patriots V.P. of player personnel Scott Pioli, considered by many league observers as regarding the Giants' G.M. position as his "dream job," has declined an opportunity to interview for the position vacated by Ernie Accorsi.
Wow.
Per Arthur Staple of Newsday, the Giants requested permission to speak with Pioli, the Patriots granted permission (despite rampant speculation that the Pats would try to block the move), and Pioli politely declined.

Pioli previously turned down a lucrative offer from the Seahawks. He is widely regarded as having a short list of G.M. jobs in which he'd be interested, but it also widely was regarded that the Giants' job was at the top of the list.
