Gibbs says it can be weeks...

Look, this will just give us all more of a chance to develop our "sky is falling/I'm so angry/I hate__________" threads when they finally DO hire a coach.

The internet is making this all worse, I think. I'd rather NOT know all the insider dirt: I get enough of that at my work where we're trying to hire two new people.

So, who are we going to hire?

No presure here!

[SFREDSKIN]

If they are not going to hire Williams, then hire Schwartz, Singletary or Grimm. McDaniel will probably turn it down and I consider Spagnuolo a little less experienced than Schwartz, plus Spagnuolo has Eagle and Giants coodies.

Actually Spagnuolo has Redskins ties:

Spagnuolo spent four months as a scout for the San Diego Chargers under then-general manager Bobby Beathard. His first NFL experience came in 1983 as an intern with the Washington Redskins under then-assistant general manager Charlie Casserly.

I had heard about this...apparently there was talk of turning in season tickets...etc. Bram Weinstein (sp?) said on John Riggins today the reaction to the Fassell rumors was damn near vitriolic...

Danny Boy is going to run his little cash cow into the ground....

That's why I was saying vote on that WP poll. Danny or any of his cronies can read that.

If it is true that fan reaction has given Snyder pause then that is just pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. If you are going to buck all conventional wisdom because your gut tells you to go a certain direction - against the wishes of the fans - then have the courage and fortitude to stand by that decision. If you think Fassel is the guy hire him and then let us deal with it. Prove us wrong.

If this is true - and that's an uncomfirmed if - then I have less confidence in Snyder than ever.

[AlvinWalton'sNeckBrace]

lets all remember that this info is coming from a Blog...and I'm not sure how this makes me feel about Snyder. I agree with what you're saying djnemo65, but maybe its just opening his eyes that he can't push around the fans anymore? One of the endearing qualities of Gibbs was that he loved the fans, and made all of us feel a little more important. Maybe he DID rub off on Snyder. Time will tell.

[SmootSmack]

It's a horribly worded sentence. Clearly designed to give the impression (without any proof) that Fassel wasn't hired because some idiot fans threatened to sell their Redskins memorabilia.

Might as well just shut down the site until a decision is made. I'm not sure if I can take much more of the crying and pouting around here.

I agree....Some thngs are better left unsaid. Sometimes I feel as though I missed my calling. Sports journalism this day and age is information overload, where you can just make up stories, print them and get paid. Nice work if you can get it.

Well, can you at least block me so I can't access it until a decision is made? The obsessing is really unproductive and I keep coming back even though I know there is no new info.

(just kidding ... sort of)

As the administrator of this site, are you really surprised?

Reminds me of jazz story:

John Coltrane played long, complex solos, while Miles Davis was the master of understatement and economy. Coltrane once asked Miles how to make his solos more concise and more likes Miles'. Miles replied, "Just take the horn out of your mouth."

Though y'all may doubt me, if you don't look at the web for a few days, life is just fine! Wake me up when we have a coach.

(Of course, I'll fail to take my own advice. What if I miss something REALLY important???)
