still, mike shanahan does not have that much of a future left in washington and it is hard not to see this as a power play. shanahan has intimated pretty strongly he thinks dan snyder is too close to the star quarterback. he thinks that star system has undermined the coaching staff and the way they can deal with rg3. in fact, shanahan went so far as to say quote, dan doesn t even care about the other positions, so he is asserting himself by saying hey, i ll show you i can bench this guy and rg3 is unfortunately, he seems to be caught in the middle. take a listen to what he said yesterday. i expressed my desire to play. of course i want to be out there and finish the season with my guys, see it through, and he explained to me his reasoning and at the end of the day, coach s decision is what we go with and that s what it s always been. you can see how just thrilled and happy that he looks there
they drove him to the hospital. you re noticing one big thing missing in all of this. they never called an ambulance. so they brought him to the hospital, substantial amount of time later there, the doctors diagnosed a severe brain trauma. they put him on life support. but in the end, he died. therefore, there could be some serious implications for the other people involved in this as well. certainly the district attorney in that district is investigating this matter. very, very serious and very tragic event, carol. it says it s baruch college. that didn t look like a fraternity house for me. where was that? baruch doesn t have much in the way of fraternities. most of the people who go there is from the new york area. the college itself says they re absolutely shocked. these people getting together and playing this game was not sanctioned by the college at all. they released a statement. i ll read it for you. baruch college has a zero tolerance policy against hazing. michael s deat
and i think what s hard for him to swallow, at least from the outside, and certainly for a lot of us on the inside, this is about his health. mike shanahan is the coach who left rg3 in a playoff game with a bum knee last season. just dangled him out there. he got a lot more hurt, then shanahan participated in rushing rg3 back this season when that wasn t the healthiest move, so to claim health now seems to be part of what makes this so hard to swallow. poor redskins fans, that s all i have to say. thanks to you and you can see rachel s show every friday night, 10:30 p.m. eastern here on cnn. still to come, a wealthy teenager who killed four people in a drunk driving crash will not even serve one day in prison and you won t believe why. money and a condition called
osage county was not nominated in the best picture category. it was widely thought by people in the industry to be one of the best pictures of the year. julia roberts was nominated for best supporting actress, meryl streep nominated for best actress but no best picture for them. also just a note, carol, double nominees this morning. indris nominated for his work in mandela. and 12 years of slave, also both nominated for best actor in a tv. good morning for those two guys this morning, carol. you re not kidding. nischelle turner, many thanks to you. just ahead in the newsroom, rg3 won t be leaving the sidelines for the rest of the season. andy schultz is following that story. doing it for rg3 s own good. do we believe him? we ll discuss it next in the bleacher report.
health problems, he s been beaten in priszen and they re w worried his life may be in danger. many thanks to you. still to come, we ve got to talk some sports now. rg3 is about to take a seat on the bench. hi, rachel. we re used to power plays in washington, but this one is on the football field. i ll have it for you after the break.
