Damn I wish he were on the field. He's too good to be sitting on the bench.

Lavar is a class act. I hope he stay's on the team for many years to come.

More Lavar quotes:

"I love my fans"

"I couldn't have dreamed having a support system like the REdskins fans"

"this is just another hurdle"

"I wish I could give them what they want on Sunday"

he is going off on the fans ... love fest right now.

Man, I officially feel bad for #56 man, LETS GET HIM IN THERE MAN!

That was a good interview. You can tell it's eating him up inside not being on the field, but he won't talk trash about the organization. I can't help but to pity the opposing team when he finally gets back in the starting rotation and he decides to take out all that frustration.

Lavar's a good man and deserves better.

The settlement that Arington and the Skins reached over his grievance had something like this in the package:


If Arrington makes the Pro Bowl twice in the next three years,k he gets to void the rest of his deal and become an unrestricted free agent.


Hmmm... It will be hard for him to make the Pro Bowl on the bench. So, as long as the defense is playing really well without him, what is the motivation for the Skins to put him on the field?

If the defense stumbles, they'll go to him for help; but until then, it won't surprise me to see Arrington on the field for less than a dozen snaps of the ball.

That verbage in the contract sounds correct from what I've read, but I just can't imagine Gibbs or Williams not playing LaVar because of language in his contract. Whether the defense is doing good or otherwise. I think they want to win so badly, and win right now that couldn't possibly be a factor in holding him out of the line up.

That would shock me if that were the case.

I hope you're not implying that he isn't on the field for any reason other than a performance issue. I could make the opposite argument that they're paying him way too much to sit the bench but who honestly believes he isn't playing because of contract issues? I am worried he is on the bench because that knee, while healed, isn't the same as it was before and now he can't get the job done. I would be stunned beyond belief if it came out they were sitting him for anything other than performance issues.

I tend to doubt that, as everyone knows I am the president of the Lavar is the most overated player in the NFL fan club, I find it hard to believe that a coach like Gregg Williams who is maybe the best defensive mind in the NFL, and who also considers all of his players starters who contribute in the game, and plays as many people as he can depending on what circumstances are presented, will not only not start Lavar, but wont even play him, I actually like Lavar as a person, he's a funny guy, and has a down to earth personality, but Lavar the football player has been so grossly overhyped it's ridiculous, does anyone think as I stated time and again in the offseason that Lavar could be very effectivly replaced by nobodies isn't true? Because that's what happened last year, and is also happening again this year.

I can't argue with that other than to say that maybe he just can't be the same player he was before with the banged up knee. I have to imagine if he could rush the passer like has done in the past for us he'd be on the field. I think this is a health issue and if not a health issue it is an issue where the knee is healed but damaged so much it has reduced his effectiveness.

That would shock me if that were the case.I would agree it does not make sense to pay a player that much money just to ride the bench. Its like the same argument that Gibbs put in Brunell because he picked him and gave him such a large contract. I think they maybe saving Lavar for the right game because he is not playing teams will not game plan for him.
