Special Guest is Redskins GM, Bruce Allen

from Wikipedia

On December 17, 2009, the Washington Redskins announced that they had hired Allen as their general manager shortly after executive vice president of football operations Vinny Cerrato resigned. Allen's father coached the Redskins to its first Super Bowl appearance in 1973.

Shortly after Allen joined the Redskins, Mike Shanahan was hired as head coach and executive vice president of football operations. It was announced that Shanahan would have the final say in football matters, but it is likely that Shanahan and Allen will work in a manner similar to how Bill Belichick and Scott Pioli worked in New England. During their eight years together, Belichick and Pioli split the duties held by a general manager, but Belichick had the final say.

Allen is the son of former NFL head coach George Allen and brother of former Virginia governor and Senator George Allen.

Allen attended high school at Langley High School in McLean, Virginia and went on to the University of Richmond, where he played football for the Spiders in the 1974-1977 seasons. In his junior season, he ranked 16th nationally and broke the school record for punting, averaging 42.9 yards a kick; those numbers resulted in him being named to that year's All-ECAC and All-South Independent teams. In 1978, he was drafted in the 12th round by the Baltimore Colts.
