I really wish there was something interesting to discuss right now besides this. I haven't even read McNabb's comments on RG3, mainly because I don't care what he thinks about RG3.

Also, just a quick question Goat, kinda semi-related to the subject at hand. Is there a single topic at all concerning the Redskins that you have ever just agreed with everybody else about? At some point it's started to feel like you just play devil's advocate because it's your "role" so to speak.

I don't get the hate for NcNabb at all. It says more about the low character of those making negative comments about him than anything else per se. He was highly respected by coaches and players for nearly his entire career. He came to Washington on the decline, didn't fit the system and didn't get along with Mike Shanahan. When you look at the two men, Mike's had "interpersonal issues" with far more players and coaches than McNabb ever did. Mike doesn't seem to get along with a lot of people, going through D coordinators in Denver like crazy and having past players dislike him strongly.

That said, it's not really clear what McNabb has in mind to say to RG3?? If it's about protecting himself from being a runner, I think RG2's comments got the point across. If it's about RG3 focusing on leadership over stardom, McNabb might be able to lend some wisdom. It's a valid concern. RG3 needs to spend as much time with his teammates as possible, hard to do that when you're jet-setting to celeb events everywhere.Plenty of McNabb's teammates liked TO better as a teammate.

McNabb never dealt with his team and fans as well as RG3 already has. His comments about Griffin sound bitter and kinda... clueless? He also demonstrated how to be a bad passive-aggressive team mate while he was here. And McNabb trashed Shanahan about RG3 before RG3 arrived here.

It's too bad McNabb never had someone like RG3 to talk to, when McNabb was a rookie.

But to suggest McNabb has anything constructive to tell RG3, while he's criticizing RG3 now for things like Griffin's classy handling of the fans' wedding gifts, is a joke.

McNabb's only real sin is and has been that he doesn't know when to shut up. He's certainly isn't a bad guy as evidenced by the respect he supposedly has...although I'm not sure I recall everyone tripping over each other to defend the guy much. He has had similar issues in the past...even in Philly. Remember the meltdowns with TO. Crazy as he was he didn't seem to fight with individual players in the media other than McNabb.

If McNabb really cared about reaching out to RG3 as a friend he wouldn't be blabbing about this to the media.

I cant believe Mike Wise hit for the dochebag cycle. First he stands behind rg3 purposely with an indian shirt and then brings an McNabb to take shots at the Skins and RG3 within the same week.

Mike Wise right now holding the Intercontinental Douchebag Championship Belt.

Here's what I don't get at all...why I am supposed to give a sh*t about what Mike Wise thinks? Right or wrong at least McNabb was SOMETHING. What the hell has Mike Wise ever been other than a mediocre columnist? Even before when he wasn't being king douche supreme he wasn't like a go to guy for content. I WANT to like him...he seems sorta cool in interviews...but then all this stuff.

BTW...talk about an off season quagmire.
