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

this leads me to a question:

Who is Mr. Redskins right now? JC?
More like JG. Gibbs is the face of the franchise.

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

Re: Lavar Arrington coming back to D.C.!!!

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?

You all are the most paranoid bunch of people I have ever seen.

you all really need to lighten up. how in the hell will he have any impact on this teams on field performance?? absolutely none! as far as him coming back to play football, so what. He is a football player, thats what he has done his whole life. If he wants to try and come back, that is his choice. If he can play great, if he can't... then he can't. He will have a job in TV, whether its with Comcast or some other network. He can do the TV thing.
1st of all his playing days are over (the accident took care of that). Secondly, I dont think I will have to much respect in him as a commentator he had a couple decent seasons, but left on a rocky grounds now he is going to be the one commenting on game play, and criticizing players and coaches of the redskins ? LA didn't even have a job when he crashed a motorcycle driving without a license. Bring back Zaban at least he would bring stats and facts to the post game live.

I just want to know if we will start seeing his Eastern Motors Commercials again "Where your job is your credit !"

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).

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!

Most of what he had to say took place during the time that Spurrier was coach and he had not received the bonus he was promised partially because his agents screwed up, and his sentiments plus injuries started to transfer to the new coaching staff, bottom line he felt like he was disinfranchized and that created the bad blood to begin with. I think we are all past that now and would welcome him back!!!!!
Why would you want a washed-up LB when we already have a solid LB Corp? It just does't make any sense at all. Lavar was never the player we though he was going to be when we drafted him. Face it...we all had pictures of #56 LT in Redskin colors... bt the potential never turned out. As much as I'd love for him to work out here is DC he just is better with a suit on...let face it...its over for Lavar!

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.

Mine too.... Poeple around here Hate Lavar... It's as if he did something to them personally...No one knows what really happened behind the scenes... But I do know he gave the Redskin's 110% for years... And that was during the bad times... But no one cares... Oh now we have the good times so hate the core Skins that struggled during the bad times...I do know there were more Lavar jerseys at Fedex than any other player BY FAR... he still remains very popular talking to fans at Fedex...

I can't speak for everyone else, but I dont think anyone HATES Lavar. That said, He will never play in the NFL again. He has injuries that will never allow him to play like the Lavar of old. With that in mind I wouldn't like to see him come back to the skins. I mean, IF he could be healthy enough it would be nice, then I could wear his jersey again, but I just don't see it happening.

Also, others are saying that it wont happen because of the way things were left. That is a legitimate argument (I guess), and I don't think they are saying it out of hatred towards him.

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
