    Mike Shanahan watch focuses on "Da Plane! Da Plane!" -- of Redskins owner Daniel Snyder

    Isn't it nice to be wanted, Mike?​Daniel Snyder, owner of the Washington Redskins, has been described as a "tour de force of executive douchery" -- a meddler on par with the Oakland Raiders' Al Davis, albeit one who tends to avoid wearing the sort of glasses usually sported by elderly women.

    Oh, the places (I hope) you'll go, Brandon Marshall

    ​Back in March, at the height of Jay Cutler's bitchfest, I laid out the five teams to which I hoped Culter would get traded -- places I was sure he would hate, and places where I hoped he would fail.
