Redskins have league's oldest roster - NFC East Blog - ESPN

You SURE you want to sign a 36 year old WR?

JPPT1974 · 07-12-2010, 10:30 PM

He is a great WR. But it is his off the field behavior and demeanor that gets to both the players and the fans. That is a red flag.

The 2 oldest teams last year were in the Super Bowl. The Saints were the oldest and won. I would not read to much into it.

We all know the Colts have played for a long time together, but the Saints have roster turn over every year. They add veterans on a cosistent basis each offseason.

artmonkforhallofamein07 · 07-12-2010, 10:48 PM

Still not into to sigining the guy. Just wanted to make a couple of points is all.

I would root for him though, as I am a Skins fan above all else.

I never let football get in the way of my math yo!

artmonkforhallofamein07 · 07-12-2010, 10:55 PM

LOL, math is ruining the game of football.

We have a whole thread going based off three sets of numbers.

Roster stacked with veterans but mostly the kind of vets that haven't peaked.

It's amazing to me how opinions on T.O. continue to change. Just a short while ago when he was two, maybe three yrs. younger than he is now, was discussed here at length about the possibility of coming here to play. With the exception of a precious few the overwhelming majority took a pass.

It's obvious our young receivers have been struggling to some extent, if help is truly needed we should look at any/other possibilities. My opinion has not changed since the last time we discussed T.O.

artmonkforhallofamein07 · 07-13-2010, 07:30 PM

A couple of years ago was when TO was still in his Eagles blow up aftermath, and the crying about Romo being his QB fans of the Skins were not to into bringing in a head case. It was never his on field talents it was all of his locker room nonsense. Also the circus that comes with him

I don't care if we get him. If MS feels he can help us win as we go through training camp I will root for him just as I root for all of our beloved Skins.

NYCskinfan82 · 07-13-2010, 07:56 PM

Whatever the FO agrees is best I'll go with that. Please understand if DMc wanted TO, he would be here trust me DMc voice carries weight.

HTTR.

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe there is no evidence that the Redskins are showing any interest in this guy. I really don't think this is gunna happen....good thing...the guy is a psycho....I remember that video of him crying as a cowboy after losing in the playoffs to the Giants and we all LOVED EVERY BIT OF IT!

YouTube - Terrell Owens crying!!

I dont want this guy...he is highly instable.
I dont care what you guys say about him being a "model citizen" for one year...lots of people do that on parole too ya know....it doesn't make them suddenly law abiding citizens. Kinda like, once a cheater, always a cheater....same can be said of the self centered. It is rare someones character changes, it usually takes an act of God.
It is possible but odds are 1 in 100 that someone has a true shift as substantial as what we would be hoping for.

Think of it this way....
If we get this guy...he will be an older, weaker, slower version of what was in Dallas and Philly and every bit of himself that he has always been. If anything, he'd probably be more prone to emotional outburst of depression and anger since he will realize he is a shell of what once was. I don't know if the skins have a psychoanalyst on staff...but if we get this guy, he sure will be busy.

I'd rather have less talent than a potential basket case on the team.
And obviously, 32 GM's out of 32 happen to agree with me at this point

artmonkforhallofamein07 · 07-13-2010, 10:34 PM

Skinz... I think you may be being a bit harsh and over analyzing TO. I get it, but the guy is not that bad..... hmmmm.... well the whole doing pushups in his front yard was a little crazy.

I will never forget that scene. It was a little surreal.

wasn't it crunches?

artmonkforhallofamein07 · 07-13-2010, 11:09 PM

Ahhh yes, crunches, how could I forget. Push ups would make it much harder for him to conduct an interview.

Meks · 07-15-2010, 08:44 AM

Latest rumors have him goin to new England. Wow
