I've been thinking about this the past day and the more I think about it, the more it pisses me off. You are paid an outrageous salary to go out and do your job. Who the hell does Coles think he is to be like, "I'm not happy. You're not using me the way I want to be used. You're not running my kind of plays." If EVERY player in the NFL shared the same mentality, not a single player would remain on the same team. Being a team player is playing with the hand you are dealt. It's only been ONE season under Gibbs and already he doesn't like where things are headed. Whatever. Goodbye.

In addition to this being bullshit to begin with, if he doesn't hand back the bonus money and try to work something out, I feel like it borderlines on felonious larceny. I mean if I don't like my job and want to quit and then say, "But I'll keep the rest of my salary for this year, thanks." I would be thrown in jail.

If there is even a HINT of truth to this, which I believe there is, even if Coles remains on the team, I want to see his ass benched and not play a down next year. Granted, he used to be one of my favorite Redskins players because of toughness and work ethic.

Well where is the toughness and work ethic now?

I guess it doesn't come into play off the field.
