Add Lavar's trash-talking the coaches right before the playoffs in '05, and calling Gibbs a coward for leaving the team himself in '07 (in circumstances a lot different than L. "playbook" Arrington did)......
Im holding personality out of this and based my list on what they did or did not do for the team. Haynesworth would ofcourse encompass all of that. Pierce - arrington - portis - guys like that may have rubbed some the wrong way but there are countless others at those positions that fit the bill better imo. I remember them taking Lavar out on third down plays all the time that last year he was here. almost seemed out of spite - power trip - to me?

Lemar Marshall started playing in Lavar's spot, in'04, and we didn't miss a beat.

We had a top 5 defense in '05 without Lavar, too. His knee injury was a legitimate issue, but Lavar trashed the coaches first for holding him out, then trashed them for putting him back in too early. Add his wanting to freelance in William's gap defense, how could you work with that guy? The Giants spent big money on him, and got practically nothing from him. Except a copy of our playbook.
