It should have taken a monumental faceplant to fire him- like a video of SM streaking across the 50 yard line to Danny's office and taking a leak all over his desk going viral type faceplant.
One player said he was drunk. However:
"Of a half-dozen Redskins players reached Thursday afternoon, none said they’d ever seen McCloughan drink in the locker room. All but one said they never saw him act if he weren’t composed and in control. They added that they never felt he wasn’t able to do his job, and they seemed surprised the question was being raised.
“I don’t know what their issue is with him,” one player said, “but all the players love Scot.”
This move reeks of jealousy just waiting to use drinking as the excuse. Snake in the grass.

he relapsed multiple times and they forgave him and then HE decided he couldn't be there for the most important time of the off season . . . this is on SM
