thanks for that. i had just edited my original post with the comments verbatim. had to listen to about 20 minutes of the interview over to get it! As I said in my edited post, Shanahan did a very good job of not answering the question that was asked, instead sharing a story about a conversation he had with Joe Bugel in the 80's and then talking about wanting to surround him self with the best players, coaches etc. For those of us who are skeptical, the lack of forthright and direct responses is concerning. I'd like to know exactly what Snyder's involvement is. There are things he should be involved in, as the team's owner. And there are things that Snyder should not be involved in if the organization is to become "functional" again.
