For once I'm ready for the end of the NFL season

As its being widely reported in DC that Mike Shannahan and company will likely be fired from the Redskins. Don't know any fan that isn't looking forward to Kyle and Mike getting the boot. Been a fan since 1983, and this might be the biggest train wreck I've ever watched. I have to say, I remember El Supremo warning me that Shanny was bad news--- he was totally right on that.

douchebag, but one that Snyder shares a lot of the blame for it also.

About how Kyle Shannahan would time Griffins press conferences to make sure they didn't go past 10 minutes.....

I know he's gone, but bad personnel decisions can haunt a team for longer than three years. His 49er draft picks were terrible.

But as much as I think drafting RG3 was the right thing, knowing the Rams might get the first pick in 2014 really hurts too....

Who would have thought 4-5 years ago the Nats would be the most exciting franchise in DC?
