Redskins coach berates official: report
By John Kryk, QMI Agency

We cannot tell you exactly what Washington Redskins offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan reportedly shouted at a replacement official Sunday, after his team's 38-31 loss to Cincinnati.

Why? For the same reason Douglas C. Niedermeyer, Sergeant-at-Arms, could not list all the charges against Bluto and his rowdy mates in Animal House.

Decorum.

What we can tell you is that, according to Washington-area radio station ESPN 890, the son of head coach Mike Shanahan chased down said official afterward and effectively told him that he has no (rhymes with trucking) things-that-we-inflate-and-use-in-many-team-sports-games, and that he is a (rhymes with trucking) cat of sorts.

A Redskins team publicist told ProFootballTalk.com that the club would not respond to the report.

If the report is valid, Kyle Shanahan can expect to be fined by the NFL.

 










Is first round pick Eric Fisher a decent choice by the Kansas City Chiefs?
  Yes.
  No.
  He has to prove himself before I decide.
