Second, it means we will be able to play in free agency.
Gibbs said it may have been 12 restructured and yes it dose say a lot to me to! He also said there maybe more as the week gose by!

But if you have balky knees, or if you're starting to age, your speed declines. And all of a sudden playing like the chicken with no head starts to become a liability.

This move should have cleared quite a bit of cap room for us. I will do my best to figure out how much. We're much better off without him. Bravo Gibbs.


It would be nice if you could beleive something LaVar says but unfortunately you can't. Just a little while ago he maintained he'd be willing to restructure or do anything that would allow him to be a Redskin for life (yeah right) He's the only player on the team not willing to restructure to help his team in cap trouble. I knew when GW signed a three year extention to remain the DC there was no way this guy was still going to be here. No way is Williams going to put up with another year of LaVar's S****T.

Wow I knew about 4 does somebody has the names of the players that restructure their contracts and how much cap space has that saved???

12 players speeks great about the TEAM atmosphere and financial sacrifice your players are doing for the greater goal. I guess tehy finally see the fanchsie turning and a posibility to make a run in the playoffs and are willing to sacrifice some $$$ to win... because thye don't know if they don't how much time would it take to compete again

Re: Lavar Gone

Just add lavar arrington to the list of guys who have been the heads of the skins locker rooms smoot, bailey, steven davis, brian mitchell...etc. This shows how much its just busness they don't care about keeping players who've been on the team for so many years and done so much for the team. This is y we haven't gotten anywhere. No leadership. You don't get leadership by being the highest paid player you earn it over the years. You earn it ending troy "ache in my back i never want to play against lavar arrington because he will literally rip my head off if there is a next time" aikman's career. F the cowboys. if you forgot about that watch it 800 times like i have. He has the fear. I don't think i'm the only one who doesn't just want him on my team because he's a great player i want him on our team because i don't want to play against him. Now that he's been released he could go to any team including the giants (like antonio pierce) or the cowboys(F them) so for any of you who say i'm glad he's gone just wait till we have to play him and you take the blame for any deaths on the field

56 LAVAR thanks for being a skin good luck to you

I real believe that Gibbs is the glue that brings the team together. We were dead as a team before he came back. Will we win a super Bowl before his leaves...I hope so. But it's nice to have such a great man running the show!!! So Cowboys/Redskins every Thanksgiving now that would be fun!!!!

This will give a good sense what happened to the market for 56 jerseys:

http://cgi.ebay.com/New-LaVar-Arring...QQcmdZViewItem

An "Authentic" for $10.

Almost as bad as bad an investment as buying a big WHITE HOUSE for you and some of your team mates to party at, then the DA, press and everybody's wives got wind of it (sorry D'Boyz, couldn't resist a little friendly old school smack).

Have you ever bought anything from ebay? That is normal. did you see how long it has until its closed. Like 18 hours. It will stay that way unitl the last hour or two. I get my skins tickets from ebay for everygame and trust me they start out at face value and for the first day or two nothing changes, then when it gets closer to game day, they go up like crazy. These are people trying to make a buck. they are dealers of the jerseys, they probably have a ton of them. And they aren't authentic, they are knock offs. Trust me, you could hold one up to a real authentic and couldn't tell the difference. I have a friend in the memrobelia business.
