John Riggins on Daniel Snyder:

By Leonard Shapiro
Friday, November 20, 2009

Not long after John Riggins retired from football following the 1985 season, I asked a network sports television executive why a colorful, quote machine of a player I'd covered since the day he came to town in 1976 hadn't been signed up immediately by a single broadcasting entity televising pro football. After all, he was smart, telegenic, funny and opinionated, everything and more you'd look for in the booth or in a studio every NFL Sunday.

The short answer, and almost 25 years later I'm paraphrasing here, was that the network suits were scared of a possible runaway Diesel, if only because you never knew what he might say next.

Riggins clearly lived up to that billing during his controversial appearance on Showtime's lively "Inside the NFL" show two weeks ago, describing Redskins owner Daniel Snyder as a "bad guy" whose "heart is dark." Riggins never fully explained precisely what made him draw those conclusions, and has continued to hammer the owner, describing him as a "bully" and a "narcissist" on subsequent appearances on WTOP radio, which now employs him to talk about the Redskins three times a week during the season, with several one-hour "Ask Riggo" specials also part of his deal.

guy needs to realize that $ and winning have absolutely ZERO positive correlation in NFL, possibly maybe even a negative correlation

The organization has to much turnover in the coaching and management ranks. Until you hire a coach and a gm and give them 3-4 years to turn things around, that team will be a middle of the road team. Synder lacks patience and discipline. He is like a gambler, he keeps throwing more money at the problem and chasing.

Snyder likes to play a trick where he blows smoke into someone's face and stare at them.... while he has his 2 big bodyguards next to him. He then walks away and has the bodyguard's offer the person money.

It's a trick he plays while traveling to different games.
