Now I'm not completely in LaVar's corner, because I do think this was a horrible time to make these comments to the media, but obviously, he's been getting the sh-t end of the stick since the new coaching regime got here.
Everyone else bought into assignments and proving day in and day out that we work as a team we win as a team. Lavar himself said I didn't know I had to show them in practice. How could he not they preach the off season program and the importance of practice since the get go. What part of the article did you assume was fact and that evidence is there to say they prejudged him ohh yeah it is because Mike Wise of the Post wrote it so it has to be fact or was the final nail in the couffin when after Lavar got yelled at by Lindsey and he has another outburst. The simple thing is they are building a team and they expect things from everybody on a team. Lavar can play and I don't care if he freelances I love watching him make plays, but I am not the coach and I do not make a game plan for individuals to follow to help this team win they do. These coaches are day in and day out coaching players 52 other players and one who has had his ego driven by diehard Arrington fans since 2000 who love the big play capability that he brings, but how come the other 52 are not crying the blues. Arrington is the only one who believes he can play within a system are all the coaches he played for and those players who played beside him all against him as well when they say he is out of position at times more so than many other players. Just play damn it, and stop worrying about what people write or say. I will be completely surprised if he follows through with the retiring mumbo jumbo, his demeanor and comments change like the wind. It is a business and no player is above the team, the owner, or the organization. Bailey was tired of the turnover, nothing against him so he chose to leave, Coles did not want to be here so see ya, Smoot and Pierce said they wanted to be here, but after releasing Coles and the cap hit we could not afford what they were asking for and the coaches made the call why am I going to pay Smoot more than the best corner Springs that is on the roster, that is the direction we are going sorry they missed the boat when we would have paid market value or higher for an individual. Those signings went much further than this year and looked at years ahead salary hits. It was not they were done wrong by the organization, they just could not fit a suitable contract to keep Pierce or Smoot they made a very reasonable offer they did not just say we are not going to be competitive you are not worth anything to us, but we are not going to break the bank. Then again their feelings were hurt due to the way Spurrier and Snyder ran the show in previous years and times are different under Gibbs and Snyder. Build for more stabalized team, no matter how hard you try you are going to loose key players, it happens to everyone. Forget Ty Law was just done so wrong by what most say is the best built team or one of the best built teams. You can't keep dipping in Free Agency and signing big name players or resigning them to lucrative contracts, IT IS NOT PERSONAL!
