LongTimeSkinFan:

I don't understand. Are you saying that Arrington never bitched about how he has been treated by the team relative to his injury or that Snyder never threatened Coles with being benched and deactivated?


Which half of those stories was not the truth?


For the record, I absolutely do NOT believe that Arrington's recovery process was impaired in any way by the Skins' trainers/medical folks either intentionally or unintentionally. But Arrington DID lash out at them. Or was the "half-rumor" part of the story that Arrington and Gibbs had a closed door meeting the next day to smooth things over...


For the record, even Danny Boy and his spin-controllers in the PR department have not bothered to deny his contentious exchanges with Coles or the "watch the games at home on a flat screen" remark.


If you think the Washington press is tough on the Skins, you really ought to read the NY tabloids, the Boston papers and the Philly papers when dumb things happen with regard to their home teams. It really is a walk in the park here...
