The bottom line is Snyder wants to control all the media regarding the team. He just doesn't want anyone blasting him. Otherwise why would he buy the station that rips him the most???

He wants a stronger signal and these stations were up for sale. I think Koken stays, Mitchell's been hinting at leaving anyway, and Czaban is a complete ass who, in my opinion, should never be heard from again.

I haven't heard of any talk of B Mitch leaving, wheres that coming from? And if so have you heard where he is planing on going or is he just hanging it up?

Heard from some mutual friends that he's been having some conversations with a radio station in either NY or Philly. I don't remember which off the top of my head.

Czaban just seems like such a dick. He doesn't play that down at all. But his show is pretty entertaining sometimes.

Can't argue there. He's the king of the douchebags.

Czaban was so anti-Redskins, that his possible exit would actually bring more balance to that station.

See this is my point. Why don't he just put together a product that people won't blast. Analyst just comment on what they see. Especially when they are rooting for the same team. They are happy when the team does well, and they blast them when they suck. This is a valid reason to fire someone?

Maybe what everybody wants is a Larry Michael Total Access Network.

Somebody who will sugarcoat everything and make listeners and smart football fans feel like everything is peachy, instead of a good straight forward honest outlook.
