Early in minicamp, Mike Shanahan read out a list of rules to his players in a meeting room, covering behavior on and off the practice field. Sunday, when his team was out on the field for a final time, he reviewed the rules -- "reemphasized some of the finer points," one player joked -- and let the Redskins know how they'd done.

Damn! I think my next t-shirt will say "It's not gay if it's with Shanahan."

Wow...if the Redskins don't win some games under Shanahan, I can see this situation turning ugly really fast. If he's going to hold grown men to such a high standard, they better be rewarded with some wins.

I'll be interested to find out how he reacts after a tough loss or a blowout loss. How he'll corral the general morale of the team to bring them into the next game.

yeah coughlin and the giants went thru a tough honeymoon with vet players (tiki and strahan?) upset about how they were being treated. i remember giants players mad that they couldnt even cut across any corner of the field if they were coming onto and off the field, they had to walk the line all the way around. or something like that.
result? freakin SB the next year. i thought for sure coughlin was a goner with the way such respected vets spoke out.
a lil like darrell green and some others when marty took over and started setting curfews, lights out, mandatory sleep overs during TC with roomates they select for you, etc.
i like it.
