  We got one of our BIGGEST wishes answered! I hope we make the right moves going forward and get this boat going again. We have a very capable team that only needs a few pieces and GOOD leadership.

  Also Danny boy needs to stick to business operations and let the football PROS put the football side of thing back in order.

  I can see this as a possible first step to having a new Head Coach in DC and maybe a new QB or at least Bringing in someone that can take over in the next few years.

  I can also see the Redskins keeping Campbell while we build an OLine and maybe groom a young QB to step in down the road if Campbell fails with a good (healthy)Oline in front of him.

  One down One to Go !

  With Allen coming in as the new GM…..Chuckie will not be far behind…Expect to see John Gruden as the next Head coach of the Redskins.

  I predict:

  1) Bruce Allen, as General Manager, places priority one on rebuilding the offensive and defensive lines for power, performance and back-up depth.

  2) Sherman Lewis becomes Offensive Coordinator advising Zorn, whom I believe will remain as head coach.

  3) Jason Campbell remains quarterback for next season

  I suspect you could create something like Redskins, LLC that was public and owned say 30-70% of the team that would be fan owned (several sports teams are owned by public firms). Then the remaining 30-70% could be owned by one or more large investors. Then the NFL has it’s majority owner, and cuts the number of owners substantially. You could also play with the ownership to money committed (as some public companies do) so a few owners would control the team but fans would put up more of the money. Goldman Sachs loaned Danny boy some of the money to buy the team in 99, so I’d guess they could come up with a structure that would satisfy the NFL, today.

  We need to emphasis more respect for the fans. Right now he treats the fans as Cash Cows with some of the highest prices for tickets, concessions & parking. While I do not expect him to reduce any of these, we should demand a public appology for what he has done to the Redskins.

  We flat out have a terrible fan experience. I have authored several letters complaining about a variety of obvious problems…one being the jersey walls separating the orange and green lots. They used be inside the green lot area (in other words they stole green lot spaces for the orange lot). You could tell this because the signs are painted green, orange, etc.

  Well they fixed it this year…but they made up for it by shutting down the number of lanes going into the stadium for green and orange…and leaving 3 wide open for purple…with no wait whatsover. Unbelievably poor.

  I have pleaded with them to start a fan experience focus group or advisory panel. You could solve a MILLION problems by engagement….

  All I hear is crickets…
