70Chip Presents the #56Fanatic "Does LaVar Deserve Special Treament" Poll

Some say that LaVar deserves better (perhaps special) treatment because he's been with us through the lean years and was once our best player. (and may still be if he could stay healthy). LaVar has been loyal and we should show him we'll go the extra mile for him.

Others say...so what. Bottom line is we were bad and now we're better and we've shown that we can win without him and his huge salary. We need to do what's best for the Redskins, not LaVar

What sayest thou?

(Thanks to TheMalcolmConnection for inspiring me to start another thread about LaVar)

Better?
Better than what? Who?

Does he deserve better than me? I voted NO.

None of know the real story of what's going on.
Gibbs will treat him fair.

I hope you used my sig!

Good point. I guess what I meant was do you take into consideration what he's meant to the team and community and figure out a way to make him happy (perhaps more so than you would another player) or do you say LaVar is just one person on the team and regardless of what happened five years ago that shouldn't have any bearing on what is decided this spring.

I haven't weighed heavily on this decision mainly because there's so many factors that we don't know. We don't know how well LaVar will play with the offseason to strengthen his knee and get back into true "game shape". I believe he can be dominant if he can continue to learn the system and play the way GW asks him to play because God knows the talent is there.

That aside, we DON'T know if that would happen. Just from watching the games towards the end of the season, I saw LaVar (for the most part) be in position, make plays and generally be a good team player. Granted, he had a few lapses and missed tackles, but who didn't?

Because of all this uncertainty I voted "No", just because I fall into the same group of people who feel his contract is what keeps me from wanting him here and him deserving special treatment. In addition to that, anyone who shoots off at the mouth like he does, does not deserve special treatment.

Yes, LaVar, you're a charismatic guy who wears his emotions on his sleeve and someone who knows JUST all the right things to say. BUT, if you're in the headlines every other week with things you are implying, you don't deserve anything special.

Hell no

No single player is above the team.

Nobody deserves any special treatment, EVER. Nobody is bigger than the team, nobody is more important than the team. Lavar should get treated like everyone else.

Nobody deserves special treatment. I am by no means anti-LaVar. Personally, I'd love to see the guy restructure to a deal which is "fair" for both parties. I realize that is a loaded term, but ultimately I'd like to see LaVar stick with us long enough to get a ring & retire a Redskin. How about it Lavar?

lavar is the man. I want him here. does he deserve "Special" treatment? no

LaVar has been a loyal Redskin, despite being a little too outspoken. I hate to see him go, but it seems like a done deal.
