It's similar to the word "shenanigans," but specifically meant for Coach
Mike Shanahan.
1. It refers to the questionable or silly coaching decisions made by
Mike Shanahan that negatively impact fantasy
football owners who start NFL players that are coached by Mike.
2. It can additionally be used to describe the questionable or silly coaching decisions that negatively impact the NFL team in which Mike Shanahan coaches.
With less than two minutes to
go the Redskins are down
six points. Coach Shanahan decides to bench his starting quarterback Donovan McNabb, for whom he traded, in exchange for the back up quarterback who hasn't played in two years or normally practices with the Redskins' starting lineup.
This is Shanahanigans!
(This actually occurred in the
2010 Week 8 Redskins v Lions game on 10/
31/2010)
