Not saying it didn't happen, but I am saying with all the money the Redskins have to spare and how convenient it was that the team could find this money after months of hand-wringing over the Arrington deal, the league needs to double check that the accounting of this is clean.

Assuming Arrington did give the money back, it's a smart move on his part to get his freedom now instead of in June or July. And I think it's a good example of cutting one's losses. The Redskins and Arrington were never going to be happy together, even though he loves the city and the people there."
King is a dumb sh*t turd. Arrington didn't give them any money back. He simply agreed to forgo the remaining payments on several bonuses. As Lavar said he "didn't write them a check". And the "hand wringing" had to do with the cap implications of inserting an after the fact 6.5 million dollar bonus. Does anyone honestly think that if Snyder could have written a check for 6.5 mil to make this go away he wouldn't have? He had no cap lattitude to make it happen.
