Mike Shanahan is expected to be named head coach of the Redskins, according to sources in the organization, and, barring unforeseen glitches, will likely be introduced in a news conference Tuesday.

If true, I'd be pleased. But it would be interesting to see who's doing the scouting for the 'Skins because Shanny has had mixed reviews as far as scouting talent.

That's where Allen has to earn his money. Currently the Redskins have among the smallest scouting teams in the league. Allen needs to take Danny's checkbook out to the scout store and fill the closet with the goods. Sadly, it's probably too late for this draft. We'd be better off just making a composite of Mayock, Kiper and Akh's respective big boards.

My only surprise is that it didn't happen today. Guess they wanted to give Zorn a break.
I'm really looking forward to that presser tomorrow. I don't want to see a bunch of smiles, either. I want to see and hear some nastiness bordering on arrogance coming from Shanahan. I want him to try to get the fans a little fired up after the metaphorical hell we've just endured.
I want him to challenge Wade Phillips to a cage match, Andy Reid to a 100-yard dash, and Tom Coughlin to a ... well, maybe he should leave Coughlin alone for now. That dude's nuts.

The sooner the better. We all knew this was the plan for a month now. Hire him...pat him on the back...and get him and Allen planning for the future. Hopefully "Redskins Decisions" means Allen + Shanny - Danny...but somehow I doubt it. Either way, I think Allen and Shanny (Shallen?) are strong enough of a Duo to force Danny's hand and at least stop him from making final decisions.

I wish him luck. Look forward to his introduction and first remarks. Hope he gets the colors right. I don't know much about him, but we can agree that he's been there and done that, so I'm grateful.

If it has the name "Redskin" in it, it'll have Danny in it. You know, like "Redskins Decision", "Redskins Type Player", ""Redskins Type Guy", "Redskins Football" or, perhaps most accurately, "4-12 is not Redskins Football", whatever that term is supposed to mean anymore, lol.
Actually, I know what that means these days. The terms are little different from cliche. "Danny Football" *is* "Redskins Football". A "Redskins Type Guy" is a "Danny Type Guy", in that he'll pal around with Danny by the pool at the pro bowl after another losing season.
Well, I guess we know where the priorities lie.

Those "Redskins email alerts" are pretty quick, I got it right as this was developing.
