I think the manuvuering on his part shows this is a money issue now. This pisses me off. The NFL has a CBA with a cap for a reason...so greedy bastard ass punk football players don't sell their damn soles every year and kill the continuity in the league. So basically Coles got pissy that he wasn't catching TDs and decided to prey on Gibbs' honesty, loyalty and caring by asking out. He knew that Gibbs, as a stand up guy who cares about people and wants only the best for his team and his players, would a) realize a moral responsibilty to help a player he cares about get in a better situation and b) realize having said player around next season might engender locker room issues that he doesn't want his team to have to deal with. Knowing this he asked to be released in effect putting into motion a calculated ploy to get more money and more TDs. He doesn't give two craps about anything but his own wants and he's trying to use Gibbs at the expense of the Redskins and his friends. What punk. I would give him respect for doing this within the organization rather than within the media but that is probably a calculated ploy to keep his supposed intregity intact.

I agree with every word of this post. I never really liked LC as is evident by every post i ever wrote about him would atest. I have mixed emotions on this whole thing now. Part of me wants him off this team no matter what, and the other part of me says f-ck him I am going to make him play out every last second of that contract...
