Redskins fire GM Scot McCloughan

[EternalEnigma21]

Help me out here... I'm reading articles and aside from the obvious lack of details being a problem, I'm reading that the overall consensus is that Scot had a drinking problem and sources are saying that he repeatedly went to work drunk. The same stories that are taking the as fact are saying that the Redskins treated him poorly by not coming to his defense publicly and not commenting on the dismissal. Am I missing something there? Is an employer obligated to hide the grounds for the grievance/dismissal?

I just kind of stopped social networking for a while. I was spending too much time looking at screens.

If they tell the world that it was alcohol related that would be looked upon as classless. Of course, leaking it to the media looks even worse.

I sure hope Gruden has enough leadership ability to rise above all this bullshit and put a winning team on the field. At this point he seems the most stable out of everyone at Redskins Park.

If it wasn't for him I'd be off the rails.

I got a chance to listen meet Scott Campbell and Moracco Brown talk and take questions at some function Sports Talk 980 put on at Ruth Chris in Arlington a few years ago. Both seemed like sharp guys who knew the business well. Without saying it I got the feeling that their opinions were not always listened to. Campbell is still there and is definitely a level headed, stable guy. Didn't know this but his dad was the old Falcons coach Marion Campbell.

I've purposely stayed off social media the past few days. But I can't be silent any longer. I 100% support @Redskins and Bruce Allen



I wish Scot the best and nothing but success in the future. I enjoyed my time with him. He's a true football guy. Just trust the process!!!!

Sounds like brown nosing to stay in the roster by saying I support BA 100%.

Yup. I don't mind D.Hall and I appreciate the time he's put in with us but he needs to go. It's time to stop relying on a guy who can't stay healthy and hasn't proven himself at a new position that is a massive weakness for us.

I agree Hall sounds desperate to do anything for a job, because if we are being honest, he is a backup at best, in this stage of his career..

[MTK]

I respect Hall for putting his name out there vs all the anonymous BS we usually hear about.

I don't think he saves his job by siding with the team on this.

The Redskins are also included in those anonymous sources. They didn't comment on the firing but had an unnamed team official ( Bruce Allen) saying that Scot was drinking.
