Hall of Fame receiver Steve Largent said during a radio interview Tuesday that Redskins coach Jim Zorn considered resigning when owner Daniel Snyder decided Zorn would no longer call Washington's plays.
Zorn did consider resigning, Largent said, but ultimately decided not to quit on the team. "Yes, he did consider it, and no, he did not want to give up those responsibilities," Largent told KJR, "but they went to the point of pulling out his contract and saying, 'You have got to do whatever the owner tells you to do.' ...
I understand Largent is one of Zorn's best friends but the fact that they pulled out his contract is RIDICULOUS!!!!
Snyderatto are making a mockery of the Skins and making us the laughing stock of the league with their antics. I do not think there has ever been the kind of silliness and backlash being felt towards the Skins. I can only hope that all this nonsense leads to the firing of Cerrato. Being a marketing guy, I can only hope that Snyder realizes the only way he can salvage his reputation is by firing Cerrato. The coming days, weeks, months are going to be VERY interesting for the Redskins.

Yep. This confirms it. I was in denial to a certain degree. I always thought Snyder had something to do with this craziness, but I didn't want to believe he was actually directly responsible for the craziness.
I really hope he can fire Cerrato, but I'm not so sure about that now. Had I been right about Cerrato actually making the boneheaded decisions based on Danny Boy's requests for something to be done, then maybe Danny would be able to see that Cerrato was F'ing things up. That apparently isn't the case. It truly is Snyderatto and that's a problem for Redskins Nation.
Finally you have seen the light. Amen Brothers!
But think of it this way - THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE!
Now you can focus on what is really wrong with the Deadskins. If all fans finally get it, they will protest at games, they will stop buying Danny Boy's sh*t, and there will be real change. It can still happen - but it requires folks to understand the truth.
It gets worse every day.
This is the craziest f*cking thing I have ever heard - literally - when it comes to play calling. By Monday, Danny Boy will be calling down the plays to Vinny who will be relaying them in to Sonny Jurgensen who thinks he knows everything about football. Larry Michael will be the starting LT and Sam Huff will suit up to play for London Fletcher - who will quit because of all the nonsense.
While we're at it, why don't we put Tom Cruise in as a wide receiver.
As if that would not be weird enough, Larry, Sonny, and Sam will still call the game for the radio broadcast - only they will do it from the field.
It has to be done that way. Lewis doesn't know the blocking schemes to call with the plays so Smith has to relay the call to Campbell. Zorn could have done it, but I'm sure he wants as little to do with this process as possible, so he's not going to be involved with the playcalling.
It's a freak show. I personally feel like I'm being punished for getting season tickets. Despite the lifelong dream to be able to see my team in person every game, I don't even want to go to the games anymore.
Monday night is going to be a debacle of epic proportions. But the thing is, WHAT'S NEXT?
Where does the nonsense end?
