Lavar's Statement (cut so deep)

mohawk · 03-07-2006, 11:40 PM

To my fellow fans, I make this statement: whether you disagree with me or not.. Lavar Has been the Heart and Soul of this team for 7 years. When he missed a tackle, I admit- I slandered his name- BUT- when he was on his game - I cheered him relentlessly. His interpersonal squabble with Dan ref: the bonus money was not his downfall but the skins. Yes the skins may have won games without him - but we all waited impatiently for Lavar to take the field over with his ability and charisma. I will sadly miss him, because he is WASHINGTON - He will always be a REDSKIN to me.

He wasn't the heart and soul the last two years he was just another overpriced player. He expected the team to change for his benefit instead of benefitting the team by changing.

If he plays for Dallas he is dead to me...

It was not the skins fault that he signed that contract it was Lavar and his agents. That is what you pay an agent for.

Not to beat a dead horse, but I came across this on a penn st. site(http://www.pennlive.com/weblogs/pasp...s/2004_03.html) & found it rather amusing, hadn't heard this before.
Guess the devil really is in the details!

"Devil of a contract

In alumni news, former Nittany Lion and current Redskins linebacker LaVar Arrington recently appeared on the James Brown Show on Sporting News Radio to discuss his contract issues with Washington. Apparently, Arrington, a Christian, could not sign the deal because it featured three sixes.
Arrington said he agreed to a deal, which included the $6.5 million bonus, but the deal then featured three sixes in the numbers, which, as a Christian man, he couldn't sign because that's the mark of the devil. And Arrington said he brought this "devil" problem up to the Redskins, which he says proves his case that the $6.5 million was agreed to by the team because, without the $6.5 million included, the contract would not have featured the three sixes.
If that isn't surreal enough, Arrington has also been taking part in ESPN's quest to find the next annoying Sports Center anchor as a judge on Dream Job. But for some reason his performance on the show has irked Matt Brown of the Sierra Sun.
But it's the big dufus named LaVar Arrington that I just can't fathom. The four-year Washington Redskins Linebacker proves all the jocko dumb-guy stereotypes correct with his almost non-responsive answers on Dream Job. For a guy who can't even intelligently explain why he is cutting a contestant, I can't understand how he got picked for the "job" in the first place. Arrington, 25, routinely stumbles when called upon to explain himself, and it's difficult to give any credibility to his opinions. He often repeats what Tony K. and Hoover have said before him.

Arrington has got to go. Just finish the show without him. Arrington is a durable and outstanding linebacker on the football field, but the man does not belong on any panel in which he makes up 20 percent of a decision that has life-altering consequences for 12 people."

that would be quite ridiculous considering that three sixes has nothing to do with the devil. its just the mark of the beast in the bible
