Arrington Not Dropping Grievance

I'm going to share in Maddox's solution for everything. It's a very special shampoo called "No More Tears"

I don't think you can blame LaVar for taking this to an arbitrator. First of all, it's $6.5 million. I don't care who you are, that's a shitload of money. And in reference to his huge contract, everyone in this forum knows he will never see 2/3 of that $68 million (unless he restructures in a few years.) It would be unrealistic for the Skins to cope with such a huge cap number from him, especially when the defense can make it to #3 without him. Additionally, should the need to trade Arrington ever arise, there will always be teams willing to part with high draft choices and key veterans in order to obtain one of the greatest defensive talents in the league. Bottom line is, if you think someone shafted you for $6.5 million, you don't just look the other way. You bust your ass to get that money back.

If I where the skin's I would aproach Lavar about squashing that contract and allowing him to seek a better deal elsewhere, I would love for an arbitrator to rule that the contract is null and void and see Lavar's face when he can't sniff a contract like the one he has now, the guy didn't play this year he is by far the most overated player in football and he's crying about money he doesn't have coming, LAVAR IS NOTHING MORE THAN MEDIA HYPE!

I get the fealing this is more of a Potson move. Things he has said before have been more off the cuff where as taking this to arbitration with such a weak case is bizzare.

I also cannot see him getting upset about Moss trade rumours as these seem totally made up from thin air by sports writters with nothing better to do and totally out of proportion with our needs . Last year Owens was on the block and we didn't make a sniff towards him, now we are apparently willing to give up three or more impact players to get Moss someone who is so far from being a Gibbs player its untrue and really who here thinks we are one WR from the superbowl . The trade proposals mentioning LaVar just seem crazy and stem from the media's disrespect of our front office. What is more likley if anything we may be dangling Gardener and our no.1 pick.

I agree with that, but he signed the contract without the 6.5 million. His agent read it, he read it, the NFLPA read it. All three approved and put their signature on it. Why did he want a new contract in the first place? There were three sixes near each other somewhere on a page, so he refused to sign. They reworked it, if he didn't read it through, not the skin's fault.

I just hope it ends soon, I'm tired of hearing about it. I really don't care if he gets it or not.

I agree 100%! Lavar and the Poston's are idiots. Didn't they admit to not reading the final contract?! Isn't that their EFFING job! What morons... Maybe the FO did take out that money, but it's their friggin' fault for not reading it.

Give Lavar his walking papers.

I think this is Poston's doing. Lavar comes out, speaks from his heart and says that he doesn't care about it and might drop it. Then his agent says to him "WHOAH, what are you doing?!?" (wanting his cut). So he comes back and says that it isn't being dropped.
Either way, I agree with others in that I just want it to be over.

Agreed completely. I'd love to see LaVar just jack the Postons in the faces for making him look like a jackass.
