Scot McCloughan to be new Redskins GM

Time will tell how this pans out and it will take time and patience.

I am imagining the initial meeting with Scot and Bruce.

Bruce: "OK, here's where we are with our FAs, contracts, etc. We have a ton of $ tied up on our O-line and D-line, but we need to revamp them entirely. Sorry about that. Our best players probably need to have their contracts re-done, because they're pretty brutal in 2015. But don't worry -- I can handle that piece, and the silver lining? We don't have many of those guys. Wait, did I say not having more than a few real stars is a good thing? Hahahah. I guess that's your problem now -- good for me in negotiating contracts though."

Scot: [Stunned silence; reaches for a brewski....]

What I want to know is who the hell gave this move an F? Did Bruce just join or something?

If there is a Warpath post of the day award, I would most definitely present it to you for damn near making me spit out beer all over my keyboard...

If he did, he'd probably bow out quickly given the comments in here.

You're very kind. Sad truth is, this conversation could actually have happened.

One of my good friends, who was also cursed a Redskin fan by birth basically told him when we hire Scot something similar... I really do have more faith by this move than I have had in a long time.... I do hope this organization doesn't drive him to the sauce...

Congrats , so would he be #3 on the "richter scale" ?:)

Yes, yes he is.

How did they.....when did they.....what.....Is this real life?

GREATEST DAY EVAR!!!

Agreed. If he performs nearly as well as he did in Seattle and SF, this may be one of the most significant developments in te franchise in decades. The guy is a real talent and could help get us on the right path. I am hopeful it all works out well.
