WillH · 01-09-2015, 02:32 PM

I wonder what advice his firm gave us during last offseason.

I've wondered that, too.

That was about the most difficult introductory press conference I can remember. Press was rough on him, and should have been; the organization has earned every bit of it. Talk about straight to the point no BS questions though. I thought he did very well. He was more calm than BA for sure. We should forgive some nerves after 30 mins of getting grilled on everything that has failed in this franchise for the past 16 years.

welcome to Washington Scott.

Here is the interview.

Watch him drink his water at 29:20. That shake. Hmmmm....nerves or alcohol?

Great link, mred, TY!

Says great things. Loved just hearing Allen say: "the new GM".

McC has brass balls, having a drinking problem and coming here. Really really hope Snyder and Co. do not screw this up.

Here we go, I was wondering how long it would take.

mredskins · 01-09-2015, 02:16 PM

Hahaha...we are such a dysfunctional family here.

Ok, I will add to the list things we are not allowed to talk about in public.: Uncle Scott's drinking.

I still need to talk about the time Buster touched me but no one wants to listen .=(

Lotus · 01-09-2015, 02:20 PM

SS, you are right. We shouldn't go there. We don't know.

Listening to the presser now.

"the head coach hires his own coaches."

"communication is the key"

I hate that they are dragging me back in ... some how, some way, we WILL f*** this up.

"They understand how important the draft is to me"

"Game tape is the DNA"

"You don't play in t-shirts and short"

My wife mocks me every time I keep reading one of his quotes out loud. He is all about building good teams through the draft, haven't been this excited for a draft in a while. I'm hopefully we can get some solid contribution for next year. I'm also hopeful the embers in the bottom of the dumpster are really out...

I'm not so sure this year's draft will be all that impressive, as he'll basically be using the advice of scouts he's unfamiliar with. And who for all we know may not know what the hell they're doing lol. As odd as it is to say, I'm actually more excited for 2016 when he's fully evaluated the scouting department and brought in his own guys.

SM has been running his own scouting agency for a year already. We used him to scout some of the players we picked last draft. This draft should be a good one for us.

"You draft your own, you mold your own."

"Train them in the Redskins' way and then decide which ones you want to re-sign."

After seeing the Allen presser he had good reason to be nervous. He's not getting paid to be a public speaker so who cares.
