Arrington vs. Taylor: Who's the bigger "problem"?

[Daseal]

Arrington is at least in DC with the team.

Arrington also hasn't had any off the field issues like Taylor.

Must say I disagree, Matty. Let's not forget that Arrington has missed these workouts before himself. Though it wasn't in his first year able to attend them, he did miss them.

What off the field problems? Okay, he screwed up and missed the rookie synopsis. The courtroom seemed pretty obvious that Taylor wasn't drunk. Speeding? Sure, but everyone said overwhelmingly that he wasn't drunk. Innocent until proven guilty.

after one year in the league and one year with his contract

Let's also not forget that right after the fact Taylor said he wasn't happy with the contract, but wasn't going to talk to the media about it. Taylor doesn't go slathering crap all over the media like LaVar does when he gets sad without that extra 6.8M to console him. Taylor for the most part is quiet, he wants a new contract (and I think we can all agree he got HOSED on his rookie contract) and missed the rookie synopsis/training. Do I like either of these facts? No. However I can look past them easier than publicly defacing coaches, trainers, and the organization in whole like LaVar does.

I think we'd dump Lavar before Taylor (provided it was fiscally possible) because Taylor is the better athelete by far. I don't see Snyder letting Taylor go if for marketing purposes alone.

How much are the top safeties getting these days? Seriously, I don't know. I'm just not conceding anything until we have the numbers for Roy Williams, Ed Reed, etc.
So somehow quietly ignoring the team and simply not showing up to team events is better than letting the team know where they stand with you? At least with LA you know what you're dealing with. Taylor doesn't say a thing, then all the sudden he's not there at workouts, he doesn't return you calls, and you're left wondering what got up his a$$. Me, I'd rather have somebody vocalize what their problem is with me (albeit in a less public forum than Lavar did). To me, there is nothing more frustrating than passive resistence. I'd place money that Gibbs will be able to work out his problems with Lavar a heck of a lot sooner than he will be able to with ST (if ever).

LOL! Now that's just funny. A better athelete "by far"? LOL. Love to hear the basis for that one, or how you even begin to make the comparison. And as for marketing, just curious, who sells more Jerseys? I don't know for fact that it's LA, but I'd be shocked if it wasn't.
