Whe I first saw your moniker, I though it said "Over 37 pieces of Hair", which is funny in its own rite. If I had VIP money that would be mine.

Dick Cheney will convert to Wahabi Islam before Lavar ever comes back here.

Re: Giants Cut Arrington, Emmons, and Petigout

Think about it...we can get both Clark and Arrington back!

And I bet the D still wouldnt be nearly as good. I vote that its time to go in a new direction.

Clark Maybe? Lavar...JOKE! Price doesn't matter, if ya can't play. Lavar wouldn't make it through camp without another injury.

Re: Giants Cut Arrington, Emmons, and Petigout

Arrington's best days are in the rear-view mirror. He can still probably play as a situation player somewhere, but his days as an "impact player" are gone. I think he'll be back here in DC about the same time L. Coles strolls back into Redskins Park...

Emmons had his best days in Philly where he was clearly a "system player". Time and injuries have caught up with him. He may not make it in the NFL anywhere next year; if he does catch on sonewhere, it will be for a really low cap number.

I don't understand the Pettigout move. He was their best OL until he got hurt. Cutting him says one of two things to me:

1. His recovery isn't progressing all that well.

2. He was a problem in the locker room or with the coaching staff which is back for another year.

Arrington would be a great fit for my flag football team.

Re: Giants Cut Arrington, Emmons, and Petigout

it is actually sad that lavar's career has spiraled downward soo fast. he was one of the most dominate LB at the peek of his brief career. i thought he was done dirty by the redskins. i hope somone gives him a shot, but i believe it is over for Lavar.

My thoughts exactly.

I loved him to death. I was at the San Fran. game last year and he had the crowd wrapped around his finger. All he had to do was throw his hands up, and the whole place went nuts.

He'll go down as one of my favorite players to watch... but yeah.. your right. He's done.

i totally agree with you. lavar was my favorite player during his time with the skins, i just hate the way it ended with him here. i'm not sure who was more at fault, i just didn't like it.

i too was at the 9ers game and your right, that stadium was totally electric when lavar got in the game.

Re: Giants Cut Arrington, Emmons, and Petigout

coming off the knee injury and the torn achilles (spelled something like that) wll be too much, especially for a linebacker. he was just starting to get his feet back underneath him before that dallas game.

Damn that is sad

Re: Giants Cut Arrington, Emmons, and Petigout

From being the next LT to getting let go by two teams 2 years in a row.

Gotta love it.

Re: Giants Cut Arrington, Emmons, and Petigout

Actually I think LA, smoot and ramsey could all find a position on snyders payroll. At johnny rockets! actually LA probaly wouldnt be ready for the rollerskates, he could sell some cotton candy at one of the six flags. lol
And on ramseys day off he could be tom cruises stunt double! haha. Man sometimes I crack myself up!

Well I'm not a huge "Arrington lover", although I liked the guy when he was here, and he sure as hell didn't come even close to LT (he probaboly wasent even the best linebacker on his team since 2004), but I think that is a little misleading if someone didnt know what was going on.

I really think the Giants let him go strickly because of injury. I mean he had the same thing Jansen had in 2004, and we know that if he had gotten hurt in the regular season (Jasnen) he would have missed more time. In addition, Arrington also paid us to get out of his contract.

Now while he shouldnt even be mentioned within the same sentence as LT, I think it was a little more than teams just "let him go".

Not sure what you're getting at... he was let go, released, whatever, call it what you will. Regardless of the reasons the simple fact is he's without a team for the 2nd straight year. That was my point.

Re: Giants Cut Arrington, Emmons, and Petigout

When asked "who is the one coach you would not want to play for", didn't Lavar respond: Joe Gibbs? It's on the boards here somewhere from last year. He'll more than likely retire before he comes back here.

The Giants front office is probably like: "Got anymore awesome guys from the Redskins you want us to bring over, Antonio? Great suggestion! Go back to tackling people and leave the player acquisition to people who can read medical reports."
