I don't think he is going to be a go to guy, and he may not make it past training camp unless he produces on the field. So I can live with it, he isn't getting a hero's welcome, and he is allowed by the nfl to play, so I hope his signing helps the Skins. If he does mess up, than he is off the team and we say see ya to him. I don't think this will be the last person of questionable repute that Shanahan brings in, he is not cut in the same way as JG was. As long as we don't become a revolving door for the shady underside of the NFL like Cinci or Dallas, I can deal with this one.
I agree. I don't like the guy at all, and I agree with Backrow that he's a proven scumbag. I don't like the singing. But I'm not going to cheer against him when he's got the ball for us. Name one successful franchise where all the players are choir boys? We're within the rules to sign him obviously, and we don't expect to more than a role player. He no face of the franchise like, say Ben Roethlisberger...

Anyway, like you said, I can live with it.
