LA Responds to Critizism

Giants' Arrington responds to jabs from former teammates - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

He's clearly still got a bug up his ass about Gibbs. At least he didn't refute that he didn't understand the playbook.

dall-assblows · 10-05-2006, 07:44 PM

i can't wait till the game to see arrington get knocked out by sellers

i just saw the interview on tv and i think lavar is a big dick now!
he kept our playbook, which is a bitchy thing and also what that interview didn't say is that lavar said, when asked would u of done anything diffrently?, he answered "get the hell out, sorry it took 2 years to get out"

i think that lavar will b a non-fator, even though it feels as though he will be a big factor.

thats my perdiction this week

"I've been feeling that ever since the fans here have been feeling like maybe they shouldn't have brought me here," he said, "that's the emotion I'm riding. Not that I need to prove something to the Redskins. I need to establish who I am within this organization, within this community. That's what I'm riding on. And I'm high on it right now."

Oh, he's high all right......

Whiff........

I said when JG came back to the team and stole LaVar's thunder there would come a time when we would see the real LaVar. That interview was the real LaVar. Sell those #56 jerseys back to him.

DynamiteRave · 10-05-2006, 08:17 PM

I don't think he has much of a right to open his yap and act like he's actually done something with the Giants organization when he hasn't.

LA needs to stop being such a crybaby and shut his trap and actually PLAY some football instead of acting like he's gonna be such a pivtal part of game on Sunday. He hasn't done anything yet (past few years included), I seriously doubt he'll do anything now.

I think the baby needs to go home, grab a bottle and get burped. Cause all that gas is making him quite bitter.

#56fanatic · 10-05-2006, 08:41 PM

I think he definately feels he has something to prove. People that play like that can unfortunately be dangerous. I am not saying he is going to be, Mean Joe Green wouldn't have much of an impact if our offense is clicking. But, I think the animosity comes from him being so deep into the community, the Redskins, the fans. Even after Shawn Springs little jab about him not knowing the playbook, he said LaVar was a diehard Redskin. I think all this hurt him more emotionally than a lot of people want to say. Even though, he also has to understand the NFL is a business and very rarely do you finish your career with the team that drafted you. I have always been and always will be a fan of LaVar the person, and a fan of LaVar Arrington the player 14 games a year.

Monk-Fan · 10-05-2006, 08:42 PM

What a dope he turned out to be! When the Skins got rid of him i was sad to see him go but now i wish we did it earlier. Who does he think he is talking sh!t about Coach Gibbs?

Lady Brave · 10-05-2006, 08:46 PM

I read in another article ("60 seconds with Lavar) in which he was asked which coach he would most not like to play for. He said Joe Gibbs. I can't even begin to debate why that is such a ridiculous statement. I wrote LA off long ago when he said, "Whose jersey do you see more of in the stands?" Arrogant SOB. Joe made the right choice sending his sorry ass packing and I'm sure he's not losing any sleep over it.

Giantone · 10-05-2006, 08:55 PM

I guess we have to wait and see.

djnemo65 · 10-05-2006, 08:56 PM

I mentioned this in another thread but I think it is relevant here. I heard lavar on the John Thompson show right after the Seattle loss, and he said that we were building something special here, and that he hoped he could be a part of it. He said that he would be willing to take a paycut to stay here. That's why all his comments are so disingenuous. Should have gotten out 2 years ago? He was on radio begging to stay a few weeks before they cut him! What a jerk! For someone with an ego his size, it is tough to come terms with the fact that he failed as a Skin. No one had a grudge against him, he just didnt make the team better, that's why he didnt play. There wasnt an anti-Lavar conspiracy. Its not a feckless organization. He failed to make us better, end of story.

I went to Penn State and always had affection for him, but looking back I can see that I defended him way past the point it was appropriate for me to do so. So to everyone on this board whom I argued with the last two years about whether Lavar should be playing or not, let me say that I am sorry, and I was completely wrong.

really going out on a limb? he hasnt done squat for practically 2 years so all of a sudden he is going to get fresh knees? i dont think so

Big C · 10-05-2006, 10:01 PM

i saw this interview on comcast...lavar was definitely pissed off. he definitely has some hard feelings, and when gibbs was mentioned he got REALLY pissed off. the whole wanting to get out 2 years ago thing was rediculous though, kind of a slap in the face to those who loved him when he was here

hesscl34 · 10-05-2006, 10:23 PM

I'm a little tiny bit dissapointed in our Skins for making comments about him like that. I don't like any players talking bad about one another. It's just not cool. Everyone should have respect for the other guy...

12thMan · 10-05-2006, 10:25 PM

Hess, are you serious....if you want want to be a gentleman, go play Chess. This is football!!

GhettoDogAllStars · 10-05-2006, 10:25 PM

yep, hess. I don't like OUR players talking bad about anyone ... all they should be thinking about is themselves and executing the gameplan. as for others ... I don't care if they get distracted thinking about us.
