Same deal hear man. I was probably 12-13 too. That is hysterical. Didnt play the inhaler card - wish I had.

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.

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.

Re: Should Mike Shanahan be fired?

I don't believe the insider stuff.. Unless it's actually out there for people to see. I like HTTR's blog's, but a lot goes on when you have a bunch of different minds.

Re: Should Mike Shanahan be fired?

Wow! That sounds even worse than I imagined NC Skins! I don't care about Haslett but someone needs to be concerned about gameplanning Sunday. I would also go along with getting someone outside the organization and Haslett can take these dipshits with him including Morris. If all this is true Shanny really is an expensive joke and there are plenty on here who will agree with that.

If we hired Gruden it would be the same false hope as hiring Shanahan. If shanny is replaced I hopes it's not Gruden. Hire a coach who has something to prove and wants to win and not worried about how much money he is making.

The problem I would have with Gruden is he would want control over personnel. We saw how that worked in Tampa Bay. Once McKay's team got old, the Bucs started to suck. I would only have Gruden as a coach. I wouldn't even want Bruce making personnel decisions.

Amen brother. Someone worthy of giving a chance to that's hungry for the opportunity. A name coach doesn't mean anything anymore. One of our own posters...SFredskin said we should have hired Harbaugh and he was right on the money. Check around and get some opinions FO. For Gods sake you're being paid pretty well to know football.
