I almost choked on my Cheerios.

Redskins fans have no long term memory(unless it relates to Gibbs)... I guarantee that 90% of the people that live to slam Lavar at every turn have owned a Redskins 56 jersey at some point.

I got three #56's in my closet any takers?

I think they should have Brud Lee on the show so he can tell the Ottoman story.

LOL...I have two. An original home Arrington (made before he decided not to sign with the NFLPA) and an away (after he signed with the NFLPA).

Dear cynical supporter,

first of all why are you cynical? Cooke, Allen, Baugh, Jurgensen, Lombardi, Kilmer, George Preston Marshall, and I believe even Bubba Tyer all preceed Joe Gibbs. The previous names are in no certain order....
Where does your 90% guarantee come from? LA revealed his stripes and 31 other organizations can have him. As far as TV goes, I usually put games I'm watching on mute....We could use a few less cynics around here! We are 2-0!

Hail

I think most of us remember our former stars / childhood redskins hero's . I still think about the over the hill gang , McDole , talbert ,Hanberger , Fisher ,Sonny ,L. Brown , C. Taylor , K. Houston ,,, to Gibbs 3 SB teams , Mann , Manley , Coleman , Monk / Clark / Sanders ,JT, DW, the Hogs, Riggo and of course D. Green . And 10 years from now most will have nothing be praise for the S. Moss's / Samuals/Jansen , Sellars , JC , CP , St and LaRon .

I don't know if he will be here permanently (and I know I'm going to get 15 people saying how much they dont care) but he'll be on at 3 on CSN.

I don't have a link but it sounds like he's going to be joining the crew permanently...

should be interesting!

What happened to Steve ZABAN on Post Game Live ? I know last year he got yanked for a series because he was too harsh in his comments.

Czaban is still on the show (unfortunately). His schedule is a little lighter because of travel issues that conflict with his other responsibilities.

this could be interesting.
Lavar has some personality but that doesn't mean it will translate over the airwaves in the format of the studio. Give B-MItch credit for one thing; he doesn't pause at all & speaks his mind.
I see Lavar struggling to adjust a little more. Wonder if he'll talk smack right off the bat about the organization, or better yet, if they'll ask him on the show what happened that caused things to go south?

arrington will never play for the skins again!i think the argument he got into with the skins front office torched all the bridges he'd burned here!

I think he did well here for a few years, but injuries killed his career here. If he never lived up to expectations, our expectations were too high. He was a perennial pro bowler, and we hadn't had that in a long while.
