Shanahan on Bowlen

[Steve Sewell]

"You can't get better than Pat Bowlen," Shanahan said. "He gives you everything you need as a coach. People around the league recognize how good he is as an owner. He's steady, he's calm. He gives total support."

Which is, of course, what any reasonable person would expect Shanahan to think and say of Bowlen.

After all, Bowlen hired Shanahan...and gave him a chance after he'd been castoff by the Raiders...employed him for many years...paid him millions of dollars...gave him all sorts of power and control to run the organization.

So yeah, you wouldn't expect Shanny to think Bowlen is a gutless drunk who needs to be infected with ****.

That sort of mentality is confined to, well,...
