I have little sympathy for Locklear's complaint either, but if Shanahan didn't think he was going to frustrate his veteran by passing him up to get Willie Smith PT (the right decision for the long term health of the franchise), he doesn't know what he's doing. Shanahan has no tact.

Why would anyone want to play for a coach who treats people like this?
I don't think I have ever known a coach who had any tact...they're coaches..
AND what were you expecting? Some quality hand holding time...Some good girl gossip over Sushi....Campfires and "Blowin' in the Wind"
.....Come on man....

I was expecting the head coach to either not believe he's more important to the organization than his players, or if he does hold that belief, to be able to be the bigger man and not get caught up in being critical of a player on his way out of the organization.

Those expectations were probably too high.

I don't know about Parcells' antics much, but Bellichick's antics have always happened when he has had a winning team as far as I know. Honestly, I think this is a bit of a non-story, but at the same time I don't see the need for MS to act the way he acted. Once he starts winning, MS can do whatever the hell he wants to do, in the meantime, every little thing (such as this story) will be criticized by fans and the media.

These guys aren't going to change their persona for anybody, regardless if they are winning or not. They are who they are.

I still giggle about that story of Parcells referring to Terry Glenn as "she".

Bottom line. People will want to come play for the Redskins and be a part of the tradition of the Redskins if the team is winning, regardless of how the coach treats people who aren't useful to him anymore.
