I hate this move.

Well, I wasn't asking for them to sign him and cut Gano. I just suggested they bring him in today (as today is a common day to bring in vets anyway) and try him out. I mean he's right up the street, just bring him in, let him kick some. See what's he got and keep him your back pocket if/when necessary.

I'm not the Gano fan that others are, but I do feel bad for him. Shanahan has never been a strong fan of Gano's either, but Danny Smith fought for him and he stayed on. I suspect MS' plan was that Gano could stay until he found someone better. For whatever reason, he felt that-basically sight unseen-Cundiff was that someone better.
