The firing of Ron Rivera as the head coach of the Washington Commanders may have been expected, but team owner Josh Harris has a long way to go to restore a tradition of winning football to the nation’s capital.

I was 8 years old when I moved to the D.C. area and adopted the Washington Redskins as my hometown team. Since then, I have watched a franchise repeatedly embarrass itself off the field with workplace culture issues and deranged ownership and embarrass itself on the field with abysmal and inconsistent play.
