No, he's just gone into his usual Mega Authoritarian mode. For some inexplicable reason the Skins have brought in Jamarcus Russel today for a workout. Shanny's gripping right now, and I really don't know why. All I can say is that everybody in Redskin land needs to remember that the man never won jack or shit without John Elway and Terrel Davis. He had plenty of chances after both retired, but he always seemed to pull some head scratcher decision out of his ass to screw it up. He also has a history of fucking up established *quality* (note: NOT legendary, just quality) quarterbacks. Jake Plummer is a great example of this. Jake's final year Shanny went into sabotage mode because he wanted an excuse to build his status and shed the "Can't win without #7" label by getting Cutler in the game. Thus, Shanny started calling games with NO bootleg plays and, when the Snake improvised and audibled into some bootlegs, Shanny blew a gasket at him on the sidelines. I remember one incident where Jake audibled into a boot, rolled out, and threw a beautiful arcing bomb to Javon Walker and the cameras picked up Shanahan with a scrunched up face giving Jake holy Hell on the sidelines over it. I'm sensing a similar situation in DC around McNabb.

I'm quickly losing faith in McDaniels, but I have no regrets over Shanny's departure.

If you kill me it's self defense
And if I kill ya' then I call it vengeance
Spit in your eye I will defy
You'll be afraid when I call out your name
