I do not dislike Lavar , I just think he could have < should have > been much more consistant and much more of a playmaker .

he got 11 sacks and a pro bowl. he may have complained, but still put up good #'s.

I dont want to get into what he did as a player. When he was healthy he was a good player, not the great player he was hyped up to be. He had a crappy last two years. i dont dispute that at all. But the dude isn't even on the team anymore, hasn't been for a couple of years and everyone still acts as if he's still here. When he was the face of the franchise there was not a more loved Redskin. I am, to a fault maybe, loyal the guy as some of us are. I was always loyal to B Mitch when he left, Monk, Mann, Manley, Mosley, clark all those guys when they left. In my heart they bleed burgandy and gold no matter where they finished their careers. And most of them have come back to be a part of the franchise they still consider themselves to be a part of. granted LA didnt' bring a winning team with him like all the previous guys I mentioned, but he was a part of this franchise for the better part of 6 six years.

Please keep in mind that LaVar didn't have a team before he got in a bad motorcycle accident. This was a former player before life threatening injuries. He isn't going to play again, here or elsewhere.

Put him on Comcast - let him do the weather for all I care. I'm so much more concerned about our 53 man roster than local TV's postgame analysis.

This will be great. LA thinks he's a very smart and insightful guy who is in reality a dummy. It will be great to watch and see what stupid things he will say.

I think LA is alright he was always cool to the fans.

this leads me to a question:

Who is Mr. Redskins right now? JC?

It depends on who you ask... Since 90% of Redskins fans fall into the "what have you done for me lately" category; three weeks ago it would've been Ladell Betts...

Honestly, I think there's such an abundance of personality on the team now, that there isn't any single player that qualifies as Mr. Redskins.

I think you're right. I think it's split between CP and JC....

I am sure he has forgotten more football knowledge than you have even known.

I'm sure he has considering he played in the NFL and I didnt. But I bet its not much more since I dont think he understood the schemes and strategy very well. What I mean is his habit of using 50 cent words that he does not know what they mean and his poor grammer. It all makes for interesting and funny statements. It should be entertaining.

Joselyn Pink is coming over...then she saw you were married. Tsk tsk!

Yeah, I saw the announcement on Sportsnite this morning, they said Lavar is "one of the most loved Redskins ever".

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 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 .

He's done, time to move on.

Is it cold in here, or is it just Matty?

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.
