These are some (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/football-insider/wp/2013/05/15/deangelo-hall-says-hes-okay-with-paycut-takes-blame-for-the-salary-cap-mess/) interesting comments of Hall's. Rarely do you see athletes say that they've made more than enough money. He really comes across as a team player and I'm buying it. Granted, he's no Darrel Green, but I'm glad he's back. I think as Redskin fans we've learned attitude is more important than talent, and I like Hall's attitude (even if he does lose his cool on the field occasionally).
The part about the salary cap mess is interesting. It's nice that he's taking responsibility, but it's not at all his fault.
Nice of him to take credit but it's not really his fault.
He's definitely made his fair share of dough in this league. I don't think he'll go broke "only" making $2M this year.

I heard his interview the other day, and it took me a long way from my DHall frustrations. He really sounded far more mature and ready to go for the Skins. Glad to see that!

I saw the interview too, sounded pretty sincere. Jamie Dukes wasn't buying it though. :)
jamie dukes is a clown IMO

Good for Hall. I'm glad he's back. We need him. I think he knows he was overpaid for a few years. If he plays at the level he did at the end of last year, there is no way he'll come back at 2 mil, and I wouldn't blame him.

Completely agree. Was very happy when we resigned him.

he's worth the $2M we're paying him, so there's really no reason anyone should be upset he's back at that price. i'm glad he's okay with it i guess...

I don't think he had much of a choice really. It's not like anyone was knocking down is door trying to sign him. If someone was offering him more $$ I'm sure he'd be in another uniform.

I actually wouldn't mind paying him a little more. Maybe 4 million, especially if he plays well, like skinsfan69 said. 8 million though? Way too much. Glad he understands that now.
