Damnit boy.....I HATE Snyder and Allen

I said in the other thread, Snyder is the new Al Davis. He's just younger but perhaps even more senile.

No excuse for drinking on the job.

If it was just the drinking, I'm fairly certain they had built-in contingency plans to make sure the machine kept running (while riding it out with SM). It should have taken a monumental faceplant to fire him- like a video of SM streaking across the 50 yard line to Danny's office and taking a leak all over his desk going viral type faceplant.

One player said he was drunk. However:

"Of a half-dozen Redskins players reached Thursday afternoon, none said they’d ever seen McCloughan drink in the locker room. All but one said they never saw him act if he weren’t composed and in control. They added that they never felt he wasn’t able to do his job, and they seemed surprised the question was being raised.

“I don’t know what their issue is with him,” one player said, “but all the players love Scot.”

This move reeks of jealousy just waiting to use drinking as the excuse. Snake in the grass.

he relapsed multiple times and they forgave him and then HE decided he couldn't be there for the most important time of the off season . . . this is on SM

Says an unnamed "official."

And he probably peace'd out from the combine because he couldn't take any more of Allen's ego.

WHo's this from? Bruce Allen?

I think the other reports are more likely to be correct about Bruce Allen's ego. Dude is a straight up liar.

i've been around some very very bad alcoholics . . . there is NO question in my mind that SM has been hitting the sauce very very very heavily . . . AND, multiple sources say it was all SM's decision to bail on the combine . . . and then he kept drinking and could not be here for the start of FA either . . . sorry, but that is on him . . . period . . . only think snyder and allen are guilty of this time is hiring a drunk and expecting it not to be a problem.

Maybe, maybe not. Still no excuse for showing up to your job drunk. Sorry but there's no defending that whatsoever.
