Re: Shanahan The New Head Coach Of the Redskins
Meh, anything is better than Zorn but I'm not totally sold on Shanahan. You just have to wonder if he is capable of winning especially after 3 consecutive mediocre seasons. God help us all.

Re: Shanahan The New Head Coach Of the Redskins
I still don't understand the love for Weiss and Clausen. I'm so glad this nightmare didn't happen (hope to god we don't draft this guy). Clausen is way overrated and Weiss is a joke thats why they ran his ass out of South Bend.

Re: Shanahan The New Head Coach Of the Redskins
Seriously, speaking of arrogance (see CP vs. JC thread), Charlie Weiss' ego is bigger than his waistline which is saying something. And my only problem with Clausen is that, for some reason, I think he reeks of major bust and I just don't see him being successful in this league...

Re: Shanahan The New Head Coach Of the Redskins
Why the hell is Snyder always having these guys spend the night at his house. I'm sick of hearing these stories about these coaches going to his house after a night of dinner. Sounds like a honeymoon night after these guys 'consummate' their relationship by signing the dotted line of their contract.
Just grosses me out. Shanny is up $7M, I think he can afford the penthouse suite at the Four Seasons in downtown DC. I'm not comforted by the fact Shanny is literally getting into Snyder's bed tonight after being wined & dined & $6.9'ed.

another thing about shanahan staying at a hotel... too much exposure to the press, public, etc beforehand staying with snyder ensures that he won't be pestered repeatedly and will have a direct route to Redskins Park in the morning |

Re: Shanahan The New Head Coach Of the Redskins

Too buddy-buddy for me. I want our coach to have a Marty like approach if actual change is to take place. My very insightful Peruvian manager use to tell me about our overbearing boss, "Never feed the fox an egg, because he will come back to you looking for more eggs later" ...Having lived in the US all my life I think the literal point was more applicable to rural Peru but I'm pretty sure it means don't become personal friends with your boss as he will expect friendly favors from your professional relationship. Anyway, I believe that is good advice to heed when in a position of authority and when dealing with someone like Snyder. Shanny has to thwart that precedence of owner friendship if he's to bring about real change...Bruce Allen too.

No I think it's more that they are good friends. More to the point that they probably plan to get up early tomorrow and ride together into Redskins Park for an official announcement in the morning vs. the driver having to drive all over town to pick everyone up and get them there on time. |
