May the Schwartz be with you?

Anyhow, I still think there's just one small (not so small?) issue keeping Williams from getting the job. If that's resolved it's his job. It not, Schwartz is one of the better (best?) alternatives.

Snyder could pick Jesus himself to coach and people would complain that he didn't hire God as his GM

FYI- Jesus is God. At least for those who have a Trinitarian viewpoint. You're analogy would be more theologically correct if it said "didn't hire The Father as his GM".

God, i love this time of year. Things are getting started a little earlier than usual. There is so much hearsay and conjecture and ppl posting like 5 times in 5 minutes if not more. U go from panicking one moment to being thrilled (and FA hasn't even started!) This is by far my favorite time of the year to be on the warpath!

It just hit me that Snyder doesn't have any idea what he's going to do. What he does know is that he likes the focus and attention being on him as THE decision maker. For that reason, I would expect this process to drag on quite a while. Even though The Redskins got bounced from the playoffs he can still keep us fixated on the team by creating a little mystery saga around this process. He's still the very much the marketing guy.

JLC's blog was updated this afternoon. For the first time there JLC is reporting a time frame; next week all interviews could be done, if not the week after. He says that team sources think GW will be the last interview. It all made me feel better.

You want me sharing my PMs with Schneed? Sort of defeats the purpose of "private" doesn't it?

He just told me I looked cute in this avatar. We said we weren't going to talk about it, but I was just too excited that he said it and had to tell the whole world!

Well, you don't have to flaunt your insider status by telling us you've PMd someone with private information. "I just sent Schneed the inside scoop, but the rest of you will just have to suck it."

I agree and people are starting to call people out like Snyder who have no idea what he is going to do.Things like "Snyder is reverting back to his old self" etc.. I think I'll stick to the parking lot until a coach is named.

This is what you get for hating on my place of work all the time.

Anyhow, what I PMed him was just something between him and me. I just wanted to make sure he read it before the weekend.

Gotcha. Have I mentioned how much I enjoy the Sklar Brothers on the 208 lately? Cheapies, Cheapies.... What a great song. Reminds me of college radio circa 1988.

The Sklar Brothers are freaking hilarious. I like it when they sit in for Rome.

Either way though, this does not look like some coy scheme to get Schwartz here as an assistant to GW.

I mean, think about it from Schwartz's perspective. Why would he jump to become an assistant here when he's already interviewed at Baltimore, is a candidate in Atlanta and Miami, and already has a great assistant job working for Jeff Fisher?

There's just way too much wishful thinking going on on these boards. I'm sorry guys, it's time to face it, GW will not be the new head coach. In fact, he probably won't be a Redskin coach at all next season.

Just curious, since IYO GW won't be our next head coach. By the way I think your dead wrong.

Who is OR who has the best chance of filling the job?

Peter King was on the John Riggins show talking about the skins coaching search and a good point was made. King said he did speak to Jim Schwartz and JS said he was really a little confused and asked DS..."Why are you interviewing me? My mentor and someone who has taught me everything I know about coaching is already on your staff."

This point was made before but so true. King goes on to say, he didn't think DS ever wanted to hire GW's, which based on facts, seems to be the case.

May be the case, but even so this could also be a positive sign. Maybe danny never wanted or felt comfortable w/GW as coach, but he at least made an effort to work through his feelings in 4 interviews, rather than acting on instinct & not interviewing him. IN addition, by interviewing Schwartz he gets insight from an outsider on GW. There was also the possibility that he wanted Schwartz to work for GW, even if unlikely due to contract.
