I expect one hell of a stadium as much resources Dan is putting into it

Allen is clearly on the hot seat. If I'm at a company and they bring in a guy to do what I am currently charged with doing (stadium, ticket sales) I'm updating my resumé.

I did hear their take. This might be the first time I disagree with Cooley concerning the Skins. Grant, Danny, and the insider they had on the other day had a much better take imo.

Keep in mind Kevin and Cooley essentially work for Dan and Bruce.

The team can sugar coat it all they want, but this move clearly has neutered Allen and his responsibilities. I find it telling that this new guy is to report directly to Dan and not to Bruce. We've seen Dan pull this move before when he wants someone gone, but doesn't want to pay them their remaining contract. He brings in their replacement and makes the work environment so caustic that he hopes they quit.

While no fan of Bruce's, it concerns me that Dan is still up to his old tricks of personnel management. This is a concern not because he may fuck Bruce over, but because Dan is still the same old Dan and the main reason why we have been irrelevant for the last 2 decades.

i understand ... but they're not being told what to say ... and these are their own ideas

and i personally think it sounds like a good one

IF Bruce is not going anywhere ... it could be possible that, as Cooley speculates, they have brought someone in to do all the interior decorating for the new stadium ... now that, as speculated, the finale location of the stadium has been secured & they're ready to move onto that phase of the devolopment. Which in turn will free that portion of Bruces plate & allow him, for better or worse, to do what he enjoys & focus on contracts & football operations

Cmon Krush. You've seen Danny operate over the last 20 years. Do you really buy that Dan hired an interior designer and installed him as COO reporting directly to him?

This move stinks of a typical Dan move. Bruce has entered phase 1 of the Dan Snyder employee jettison program.

Personally I don't give a shit who they hire or who oversees the look or location of the stadium, the non-football tasks, the pay for the OAs or any other non-football related areas. I only care about who is actually making football related decisions. Let's be real - you are never going to totally remove Snyder from that equation, but I believe that if someone does a fairly decent job in that area Snyder will give them some freedom.

Maybe Williams is that guy (w/ some help from the staff). Hope so. I am just not sure if Snyder was totally sold on SM & to be honest neither was I nor most folks (still wished they perhaps retained him or immediately replaced him w/ someone else - anyone but Allen). Oh well - I believe that these may be good signs & again Snyder is never going to totally stay out of the picture.

doug seemed to be out in front on this and if he used smith and shafer and took their advice and ran with it then that is a huge plus in the doug williams column as far as a manager is supposed to do

but ... if it has nothing to do with football operation ... ala interior decorator ... then why would it NOT report directly to the owner ?

i love watching UFO conspiracy shows on Fri on the History channel as much as the next guy ...

but maybe it is what it is.

and nothing more.
