2) If it had been me, you [the press] would have known it and I hope you recognize that I am man enough to be stand up about things like this.

3) There was a lot of what was said in the article that was true. Yes - Williams is arrogant, so is he. He prefers Williams to be arrogant.

Springs was clearly offended that anyone would think it was him. He said he didn't care who made the statements and jokingly thanked Friend for writing it b/c it brought the team together.

If you saw Springs postgame interview, you would know it was not him.
Good points, and I would also go to add a number four that I heard on Triple X radio. Actually I guess it would be a number 5, to go along with what TAF just said.

He said something on the lines of "Anyone can be a T.O. in this league, but atleast put your name when you say something like this".

Re: Must-Read Article on GW and the Defense

Honestly, I have no idea who said it. I know for sure now (after his comments) it wasent Springs.

I can gaurantee it wasent Sean Taylor for one reason and one reason only...he refuses to speak to the media.

I read that it was someone in the secondary, who was a starter, so I guess maybe Rogers is the guy? I dont really know. It seems like someone who's beent here a while made those quotes. At this point, if it rallys the troops, I dont really care.

I really hope it wasn't Rogers. He has tons of other stuff to worry about(like let's say catching a freaking potential INT), instead of going out of his way to call out the coach.

rogers wasn't here long enough to cover the complete timespan, neither was AA, or clark, or harris, or wright. Prioleau isn't a starter. that leaves taylor or springs, and from the sound of the quotes and taylor's anti-social nature towards the media, i doubt it's him.

Re: Must-Read Article on GW and the Defense

you expect someone to come out and admit it, when it guarantees no one's going to talk to you again?

notice how he knew the quotes in that article word for word? but i guess no one here's ever denied doing something wrong... ever.

lol yeah I guess it could be him, but after all he has passionately said you actually think he lied all that time??? I highly doubt it, it would be very unproffesional and not something I would expect out of a vet, especially not Springs.

Dont get me wrong, I most definately thought it was Springs, prior to all his quotes.

CB? How about Darrell Green? Dexter Manley probably forgot that #28 isn't playing any longer and said that was a current player out of habit.

I didn't notice he quoted the article word for word. Maybe he's just a speed reader with a photographic memory

Re: Must-Read Article on GW and the Defense

I think this is a lesson in the classic art of deception. All the article had to say was starter on the D to get everyone looking that way, when it was really on the other side of the ball. Who knows maybe it was Lavar and the other stuff got in there to give it creditability so it didn’t look like a Lavar was getting revenge.

again, lavar would have no insight into this year's problems. he either got multiple people or it was springs.

When did Springs quote the article "word for word"? In his post game interview, it was clear he had read it. I get the feeling, however, that this article got passed around and was the subject of considerable discussion before the game.

The player should just shut up and play ball like they did yesterday.
