Rex reporting for duty!

If you actually see the CSN interview in context, it's not some grand declaration of division dominance.

It's not that big a deal.

I love it. Get 'em Sexy.

I certainly would not want a Quarterback (or any player on the team for that matter) to say "gee I just hope we can avoid finishing dead last in the division, all those people who are picking against us are dead on!"

Lmao agree

context is everything

I don't see anything wrong with what he said either

This is hilarious -- Rex Grossman is trending on Twitter right now. LOL

Here's what some wrote: Rex Grossman named Redskins starter. S&P just downgraded the team from "NFL" to "ACC Conference"

I don't have an issue with it either. Anyone in their right mind knows that the notion of us winning the division is pretty silly, but what's he supposed to say? We have no shot? He'd get bashed even worse for that. So I have no problem whatsoever with his statement.

Naysayers are like conspiricy theorists....spin doctrine to suite their fancy.

I guess we should get used to these ridiculous non-stories. Mike Florio and Jason LaCanfora must be going insane since there aren't any big stories they can use to bash the Redskins. The AH/McNabb circus is gone, we didn't trade any major draft picks for washed up veterans, and we didn't make any major free agent acquisition. Not having these type of distractions around is huge for team that is rebuilding and has a lot of young players.

Nor did we draft a QB that probably long or short term wouldn't have been any better than the three we already have.

It's good however to scroll down this roster of Redskins and see so many players on the left side of thirty, hungry and eager to make a reputation for themselves. Likewise as important, (compared to years gone by) I see more players on this roster drafted by the Redskins, a factor I've noticed is not lost on those of which it has that special meaning. Not always, but more often than not, loyalty, commitment and dedication is a by-product of the players drafted by a team.

hey if you don't believe in yourself who will. i like it.

im guessing one of you spider-monkey's posted the link to that interview already. not gonna read through the thread.

Lotus · 08-10-2011, 01:46 PM

Nothing wrong with what he said. A QB needs such confidence. Rexy even got me fired up. Bring on the Giants so we can kick their butts!
