Re: Should Mike Shanahan be fired?

This thread really got off topic, and I get pissed at for being sarcastic >> Irony.

Re: Should Mike Shanahan be fired?

I gave my grandson one. But it had a stuffed head and a stick body. Does that count?

Re: Should Mike Shanahan be fired?

Back on topic and posting some info that is very disheartening to hear.


LL ‏@HTTR24_7
1. Haslett will be fired after this season

-------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
2. Internal discussions on if Raheem should get the job. 3. Some D coaches dont want morris to get the job..want team to go outside org

-------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
so damn frustrating knowing our defensive coaches are privately worried about who the DC should be NEXT year..not like we have a game sun..

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
@jaredkaufman front office is not all on board with Raheem.. split room.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
I didn't even get to the offense and defense infighting that's going on.. Wish all this would just get fixed

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
Aslo on the Pod... #Redskins executive on Shanahan " He is a joke at this point... A real expensive joke"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
Source: Snyder made Shanahan backtrack/spin from his "evaluation" comments.. That explains the awkward Monday presser where Dan was mentioned A lot

----------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
Sunday will be the tell all for this team.. I hope they show up and play well to get the victory. A bad showing will increase the drama.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
for the record I have been a Shanahan guy since day 1.Still have hope, feel like a kid being told santa isn't real right about now



I think these past couple weeks has changed the game a bit in terms of Mike. If he allows this type of shit to continue on in and it shows on the field, it would be hard to bring him back. Coaches bickering about who's going to be the DC next year when the season isn't even over? Hey assholes, how about planning for the game this Sunday!!! It's like the coaches have given up as well gathering from these tweets. SMH

One thing that I judge coaches on is how the team responds. Sometimes you really can't go by wins, even though it generally reflects exactly how the team is responding. Many times they can respond very well and talent still not be there to win. That said, there was a difference in how the Skins have played the past two games. The team that played against the Falcons and Giants, aren't the same team that played against the Steelers or the Panthers. Same talent, but definitely not the same desire or fire.


We'll know Sunday. If the Skins lose or get blown out, you can expect it to get worse. I think our only chance is if RGIII rallies this team.

We need to find the next Jim Harbaugh and a young Bill Polian.

Good stuff. Some I already knew, some I could have pretty easily guessed. Some that doesn't really surprise me, and some that I'm surprised by.

LL/HTTR is good. Really good. He lives the life I used to live...and miss

I didn't miss all of it. And I wanted to go on to broader things.

And really I don't know what kind of live he leads, or even who he is. What I know of him he seems like a pretty good dude.

IF this is correct, Im really surprised Shanny wouldnt have a better grasp on the coaching staff and the environment behind the scenes. If there is infighting, sorry, the locker room is lost. Winning cures all, but...

Re: Should Mike Shanahan be fired?

Before I weigh in on the "Pony" v. "No Pony" debate, I really, really need to know how the mods feel about it. I just don't know what to think until they inform my opinion.

Smootsmack's boots taste like cotton candy.
