And how can you say "fuck the fans" ? what are you? Are you a fan? I know you are,so what does that mean when you say fk the fans? does that mean fk you?
And what is this great plan? so far the only plan snyder has had that was worth a shit was rehiring gibbs,which didnt quite work out as good as we had hoped,so far none of snyders plans have worked out the way anyone had hoped,so why should we believe in him now? Right now 99 percent of redskin nation,IMO,thinks snyder doesnt have a clue,maybe he will get lucky and end up hiring a coach that can pull this team together,and i sincerely hope he does,I just cant see it happenning,any coach he hires is going to be another one of his puppets,even Cowher.If somehow he does manage to hire cowher hes still his puppet,at least for 1 yr till cowher can hire people he wants here.
Till dannyboy hires a qaulified gm and stays the hell out of the way I cant see us gaining any respectability,unless of course we win,winning cures all ills

Yeah, I'm a fan. But I don't believe in getting all upset based on speculation of who may or may not be the head coach. Fans that are all "Season's over. 8-8 at best" All because of some rumors in January? Yeah, fuck them. Get a fucking life. If you want to be upset when we're 1-4 and have no offensive gameplan that's one thing, but all this "jump off a bridge" mentality now is, to me, pathetic. Look, I know people don't like it when I say it but I' truly believe that if we are indeed the laughingstock of the league-which I don't agree with-it's due in large part to the fact that the majority of Redskins fans have no clue and have no patience. Much less than for most other teams.
People say he has no clue, but they themselves really have no clue why they are saying that. They named coordinators before they chose a head coach so he has no clue? Never mind that other teams have picked coaches before the head coach. He hasn't hired a General Manager so he has no clue? How many people have really paid attention to the team's scouting department and all the strong work Scott Campbell has done in building the team over the past several years? And now he's being rewarded for it. The whole coaching search? Assumptions all over the place. And then people turning it into "Well Snyder said..." NO. Snyder never said anything. It's just that people want to assume, they want to speculate. They insist on the Redskins having patience, but refuse to have any themselves.
And where things get dangerous, as I've also said before, is when Snyder forgets that he is no longer just a fan and adopts that same desperate mentality. But I think in recent years he has fully realized that he is the owner, not just some fan, and has acted as such.
And look I'm not happy with the results on the field overall the past several years. I want us to win as often and as much as anyone else here, but I also realize that it's a marathon not a sprint, and that it's ridiculous to think that 31 teams are in better shape than we are.
