Yes of course. I am a fan of the Washington Redskins. Although I am a fan because of Joe Gibbs, I also became a fan because of John Riggins, Joe Theismann, Art Monk, Gary Clark, Ricky Sanders, etc. All of those guys are retired now, but yet I am still a Redskins fan. There have been plenty of bad decisions Snyder has made since he bought the team, but those decisions haven't stopped me from being a Redskins fan.

I'm not sure what you're saying when you say "seem so sure that no one can impact what the club does". Are you implying that some of us are sure that no one else can make as much of an impact on the club as what Joe Gibbs has? If this is the case, then we'd have to look at the coaches who were available before the '04 season and see which ones have had experience with rebuilding a team from the mess the Redskins were in, into a team that could be a playoff team and eventually a SB contender year in and year out. I don't know of anybody who was available at that time right off the bat, but certainly Joe Gibbs was available at that point who could get it done. I realize some people's mentality is, "why don't we give a young coach a chance." My response is, we have already went through a decade + giving unproven guys an opportunity to coach this team into greatness. Besides Gibbs, Marty was the only other coach who could probably make this team great again, and he got fired after one season. Like I've stated before, all of us, you included, want the Redskins to start winning now. With that fact in place. we all know that Joe Gibbs was the only logical choice at the time when we needed to replace Spurrier.
