I hope he is insecure somewhere else then. Last thing we need is an unstable locker room and more media circus-fed stories.

I respect your opinion, and I can see where you would get that feeling. I was just going from the times where they were reporting VY to be "Suicidal", that time where he went missing from his family for a few days, and they found him locked in his car and all that. Then the well documented issue he had last year, throwing his pads at the fans and all that. Maybe insecure, sure. but if he was truly suicidal which his mother and friends felt he might have been, that screams mental illness.

If someone is depressed enough to the point of being suicidal, that doesn't necessarily mean they are mentally ill.

He did not throw his pads at the fans, he tossed his jersey and pads to his agent's son as a gift

That's actually the first time i heard that information. I did not realize thats why he did it. I remember when they made a big deal about it at the time. Had no idea...

Everyone, including myself, thought he was just going crazy. But I found out that night that he was tossing it to the son/daughter of some exec or his agent (honestly, i can't remember).

It was reported but buried, people didn't really focus on that part of the story. Wasn't as interesting I suppose

Re: Redskins 2011 Starting Quarterback: John Beck?

Personally I've heard Leinart matured a lot last year, but I also think he got robbed in Arizona. He had a much better preseason than Derek Anderson. There was no reason to let Leinart go and keep DA.

But maybe getting cut was the best thing to happen to Leinart

Re: Redskins 2011 Starting Quarterback: John Beck?

Leinart, Beck, + a UDFA would be a good structure for this season at that position. I understand that Grossman is a basic certainty to be back , but if we're going to have Beck AND Grossman on the roster, I don't see the point of adding another veteran.

Ugh...we would not be helping a fantasy draft in any way.
