Good questions, I'll be sending them to him tomorrow afternoon. So keep them coming until around Noon tomorrow.

B-Mitch,

You tend to tell it how it is, even when us Redskins fans don't want to hear it and I appreciate that about you! My question to you is, in your opinion, what would be the best use of Washington's 1st round pick? Trade down for more lower picks and rebuild the offensive line and the defense, or use it on a QB?

Why aren't you officially a part of the Skins coaching staff, player recruitment/development, or scouting? We need you on the inside of the organization.

BMitch thanks for the time. Love the way you aint scared to ask real questions and how you keep it real. Still got my Bmitch jersey.

Earlier this year you complained how Shanny disrespected McNabb by his end of the season benching and you said Snyder should have jump in and said something but for the last few years you and all of us have said he needed to stay away. Now he finally does what we wanted and you jumped all over his decision for not speaking up or putting his foot down on the subject. (106.7 the fan)

Do you think Snyder should get more involved in decision making and if so why?

Shanny in your eyes is he a Egomaniac who is out of touch with running a team what are your thoughts on him and do you respect him? You seemed really angry with his decisions.

Kyle what are thoughts on him is he just daddy's boy or is he the real deal, because you blasted him as well. Do you think he sabotaged Mcnabb?

McNabb did you not get tired of seeing all those ball over and under thrown. His since of non-urgency when it came running the offense. he made alot of mistakes not running out of bounds to kill the clock throwing INT's. Whats your take on #5 does he not have it anymore or was it the offense we are running?

My take on the Eagles trading McNabb to us was that they had no respect for us as an organization and they knew Mcnabb wouldnt hurt them because of our past for drama which we didnt fail to prove that point, but they thought as a whole that we are so dysfunctional that we could never hurt them with a good QB even with P Manning couldn't help this team. Thats why they traded him here and they figure we give him a payday as well.

I like your style on air but I just cant get the whole wanting Snyder stepping in on the McNabb thing I just didnt understand your thinking and the other guy agreed with you and I was like what are you guys for real after all the hoopla made over Snyder being always involved in things he stays out and the first thing I hear is where is Snyder. Correct me if Im wrong. thanks for your time

If you had one player on offense and one player on defense to build around, who would they be?

Are there any players on the current roster that would have been significant contributors on any of the SB teams you played on?

warpaint · 01-17-2011, 12:45 AM

Do you think if ran the 4-3 this year Albert would have complied with the team rules or do you think he would have acted the same? Do you think we will make the 3-4 work?

FRPLG · 01-17-2011, 12:58 AM

You're the only thing we have who was a part of the pre free-agency glory days and the debacle of a organization we have largely been since the mid 90's. Considering you have first-hand knowledge of a successful modern org (Philly) what in your opinion is wrong with the org at the foundational level? What could fix it?

Redskins8588 · 01-17-2011, 02:03 AM

What are your thoughts on getting in the hall of fame? I believe that you deserve to get in but what will have to happen to make that happen? Do you even worry about getting in the HOF? Any other thoughts on the HOF?

Dirtbag59 · 01-17-2011, 02:32 AM

What's your take on the new rules regarding the Return Game as it seems despite the wedge being illegal, more and more kicks are being returned for long gains. Are these new rules forcing Special Team coaches to be more creative or are teams fortunate to be in the middle of an era where more quality returners are available?

warpaint · 01-17-2011, 03:32 AM

What are your thoughts on Rex Ryan running in the end zone after that TD and the whole teams actions at the end of the game?

They come off like a bunch of disrespectful POS's. They played good but there seems to be no class there even, Bart Scott's interveiw he sounded like he was doing a promo for the WWE.
