Robert Griffin III: The Man Behind The Name

[skinsguy]

Yeah the Colts have to start back at square one. Houston has the best team in that division, and with Schaub coming back, they should easily finish at the top of that division.

Well certainly a LB would be considered an expert on QB play.....right?

[Beemnseven]

Bill Polian was on The Herd this morning -- said RGIII is the second best player in the draft behind Luck. He said Griffin brings a dimension to the game that hasn't been seen since Steve McNair, and said that he's actually ahead of McNair due to the difference in their respective divisions. (McNair played at Alcorn St.)

I'd be happy with that kind of praise from one of the best minds in football.

RG3's response to all the haters...

Robert Griffin III ‏ @RGIII
I'm fueled by faith family & what I represent. Small town kids, Military, & Kids dreaming everywhere. Doubters increase the power of my fuel

What a selfish bastard! I mean, seriously "I'm fueled", "what I represent" "my fuel". Holy crap - me, me, me. I can't believe this guy!!!
<sarcasm font off>

Keep hating on him - I get the feeling it just fires him up.

They were talking about his political views. Griffin III is a Republican, ergo he doesn't believe in spreading the wealth, therefore we can only logically conclude that he is in fact selfish.

I think going #2 in the draft......chaps his ass as well. I hope that translates to playing with a chip on his shoulder...attitude.

Bill Polian: Wants know what scouts say RG-3's personality worries them so that he can add them to the list of he people he'd never hire.

That's all this kid does is talk about himself. If I didn't know any better I'd swear he might believe he's the only person on Earth.

No sarcasm font needed either, IM BEING TOTALLY SERIOUSZ!

At least RG3 doesn't talk like Andre the Giant...

Andrew Luck Sounds Like Jason Segel’s Impression Of Andre The Giant…Maybe « « The House Of Heckle The House Of Heckle

Looking at the reader comments is telling. Why all the sudden vitriol against RGIII ?

One guys says "RGIII = Akili Smith. BUST!" Couldn't the same be said of Andrew Luck and Tim Couch?

It could also be more proof of my hunch that the Redskins are just one of those teams that people love to hate, and as soon as a potential draft pick becomes associated with Washington, public sentiment tends to turn against them.

Best to avoid the comments on PFT regarding ANY topic, for the most part it's full of haters and morons. Some comments are worthwhile, but you have to wade through some serious BS to find them.

Most of that hatte is coming from Eagles, Cowbitchs and Browns fans who would all trade their QB and picks to get RGIII. Its really quite funny. Most are just pissed at their situation, but they are fair weathered and im sure if there team had moved up to get RG3 they would be singing his praises. Eagles, Cowgurls and Browns fans about as 2 faced as they come.
