Based on the quotes from the articles that have come out recently it seems like some of the coaches feel the same way also. And it's not like he's the only player that has publicly criticized the team...[or]... the way some things are done at Redskins Park.

SC - You raise some very interesting points, and I agree, CP is not the only one who has made public omments about the team. However, I would say that CP's comments are more damning, simply because he made his comments during one of his PAID appearances on the JT show.
Did he all of a sudden develop a lack of judgment when the Skins are not paying for his time?
Something to ponder...if a high level executive of a corporation went on CNN and heavily criticized his own company, how fast would he be receiving his severance package and pink slip?
Athletes, while not executives, should use better judgment when addressing issues (particularly in-house ones) on air, in print, and, overall, in public.
