Interesting. Scott M has pissed someone off...[/quote]

Cooley should have balls to refuse that kind of crap. Why would he want to cause controversy? Who is behind this? Allen? I agree with the guy being interviewed, this is Flynnesque. Of course from what it seems like reading the article, the allegation might just be true, but why leak it before FA starts and the draft? Why can't Redskin Park just be run by real professionals? The blame indirectly falls on Snyder, unless he is the culprit, then he gets all the blame.

Well, if the link is true, it means someone higher up than Scot is getting ready to kick him out. So either Dan or Bruce.

IMO, if this story is true...absolutely disgraceful by the redskins organization. To volunteer that info to the public is just the lowest of the low for an organization. I would lose any respect I have I have left for Snyder and Bruce. You don't treat folks like that.

I really don't think that's what happened. I think Chris, perhaps inadvertently, made a decision to speak publicly on something that should have been kept quiet

Thunder fan here too. KD is a pussy. Cupcake. Hopefully Spurs or Cavs can beat them. NBA is pretty boring this year. The other teams are all just wasting their time.

Go Redskins! (now it's a football post).

Yeah, you know when you bring McC who had those substance abuse problems...which by most accounts I read he really wasn't out of the woods, but was still "battling"...you kinda have to have a plan on how to deal with a possible relapse. I still think a statement of support would be a good move by the skins. Cooley should be given a timeout on the radio. Somethings shouldn't be brought up.

Re: Trouble in Redskins Park?
 

Cooley bringing that on the air is trash and it's even more trash coming from a fellow Skin.

Cooley needs to be nailed if this is indeed "fake news". Even if there is some merit to the story, why bring it up? That is a personal matter. Now if Scott got nailed with a DUI, then OK that might be news worthy, but not this. He(Cooley) was one of my all time fav Skins, now I am not so sure.

So then if the Redskins aren't going to "discipline" him in any kind of way, then maybe that suggests that he was indeed only obeying instructions.

Re: Trouble in Redskins Park?
 

Oh these fun times at redskins park...in my best Keith Morrison voice.

Re: Trouble in Redskins Park?
 

Just from an outsider's view.The Redskins are doing everything right and going in the right direction and no other reason to think otherwise.Cooley said something stupid but there is no evidence other then just a dumb remark from him.

I'm pretty sure he has been, but no one outside the organization/station will know it

Yeah I don't really care if it's true or not. You don't bring it up on the air. That's trash for the national media if they do want to do that. People associated with the Skins should not be doing that. I don't like it at all.

I am with you. The guy(Scott M) admitted having a beer or two occasionally when asked about when he came on board. To me that is nothing worthy of reporting, if he does drink. Was Cooley just trying to get things interesting in a boring period of the post season? Still, that is not professional. He should have come out with his own mock draft or something to raise interest and get click bait. If this type of crap continues and Scott gets some nice offers elsewhere, he might just bolt because of this type of garbage.

It's a sad day when a Giants fan is the voice of reason. This is non-issue, why keep the drama going?

The heat on Cooley is ridiculous. I am sure most of us thought the same thing when we heard the news of Scot being muzzled. If you want the drama to go away, stop blowing things out proportion.
