Arrington Interview

I think talk of trading LA is a bit premature. Right now, he thinks that the Skins screwed him out of 6 1/2 million dollars. He's wrong, but that's what he thinks. If it were me, I'd be pissed too. But...He's eventually gonna cool down and realize that, like SkinsRock said, he's the highest paid LB in the league and that he signed the contract without making sure all of the details were to his liking. Not exactly unfair. Plus---He's still not even approaching the jackass proportions of Ty Law who says he doesn't ever want to be a Patriot again. LA still has emotional ties to the Skins and seems to care about the team, that's a good thing. As far as not being excited about Gibbs goes...It's his what, 5th coach? I'm excited too about Gibbs being back, but I'll admit that excitement is tempered until I see results.
