The Real Problem of the Redskins ...

Excellent column. Very well written!


I think there is an additional element at work here.

Danny Boy wants to win - just like the other owners want to win - and he wants to win in such a way that he is recognized as the architect of the victory. If he just sat in the owner's box and cheered for his team as it won the Lombardi Trophy, that would not be sufficient because when the accolades were handed out, Danny Boy would be an afterthought. And the absolute worst thing that could happen to Danny Boy is to be an "afterthought"; he has to be at the center of attention - never on the periphery.


I believe these two elements point to the real problem of the Redskins.
