[quote=Chico23231;1047641]Yeah I dont know, it just seems so typical of the skins. an effing cirus. this is exactly what i wouldnt expect from Shanny. I wouldnt think he would lie like this...i dont know, its disappointing.

I think maybe we should grant Shanny wish, but I dont think Dan will play that without checking with his lawyers on the show cause deal.[/quote]

He earned his "rat" nickname for good reason, and it's not just due to his weasel like appearance.

This whole situation is so unbelievable. Just when you think it couldn't be more of a circus, more clowns pile out of the clown car. I can't wait for this season to be over with so we just start fresh.

Man honestly I'm at the point of not even caring anymore, if we hire a great staff And start winning that will be great but in all reality I don't see us winning under Dan, hate to say it but look at the facts since he's been the owner , I don't dislike the guy but he's obviously not a good football guy , I'll be a fan of the team but I'm starting to not really care as much anymore

Ouch

In my opinion, if Redskins were going to protect RG3 future and hold him out of 3 games, it should have been first three, not these last 3

You've got to wonder how concerned the front office is with general fan apathy. The fact that 2/3 of the stadium was empty on Sunday had to be a massive wake up call for them. Even though they made money on Sunday, you have to assume Snyder and the rest of the business management team took it as a loss in revenue.

Ultimately, I think a lot of fans feel the same way you do, which is why they need to turn it around quickly and make some decent moves both with the FO and the coaching staff for 2014.

For sure. I fully expect Cowboy fans to outnumber skins fans.

I get that he commands respect from players, but I was not at any point under the impression that the Redskins were hiring a character guy in Shanahan. I had hoped they were hiring a winner, that was obviously not the case.

Nice article. Any Redskins fans who still believe in Shanahan need to read this.
