Matty:

Last year Michael Vick took his own sweett time in rehab because he wanted to be certain that he did not make all those big incentives in future years of his contract "unattainable". He flushed away the season for himself and for the Falcons to assure that he was healthy. He was looking out for HIS financial interest first. Guess what. He's as much of a "warrior" as LaVar and LaVar is as much aware of the "business aspects" of the NFL as Vick. Notice, I'm paying LaVar an compliment here; I'm saying he is smart enough to put the long term into perspective with the short term.

So, it's not that far-fetched to ask the question. You won't hear anyone else ask it because the Washington media is too busy kissing the butts of anyone involved with the Redskins until such time as the Skins organization turns on them.

Obviously in the mind's eye of a fan, every Redskin starter is focused on one thing and one thing only and that is winning the next game. Well, maybe that isn't always the case and for those of you who are ready to pound on your keyboards that I'm an idiot, let me offer you the name ... Bruce Smith...
