I've been wondering the same thing.

No idea. He must be working for the CIA as undercover as he's been.

[quote=tryfuhl;686307]I remember I was hammering on a fence in the backyard when Dad approached. He was carrying a letter or something in his hand, and he looked worried. I continued to hammer as he came toward me. "Son," he said, "why are you hammering on that fence? It already has plenty of nails in it." "Oh, I'm not using nails," I replied. "I'm just hammering."

With that, I returned to my hammering. Dad asked me to stop hammering, as he had some news. I did stop hammering, but first I got a couple more hammers in, and this seemed to make Dad mad. "I said, stop hammering!" he yelled. I think he felt bad for yelling at me, especially since it looked like he had bad news. "Look," he said, "you can hammer later, but first-" Well, I didn't even wait to hear the rest. As soon as I heard "You can hammer," that's what I started doing. Hammering away, happy as an old hammer hog.

Dad tried to physically stop me from hammering by inserting a small log of some sort between my hammer and the fence. But I just kept on hammering, 'cause that's the way I am when I get that hammer going. Then, he just grabbed my arm and made me stop. "I'm afraid I have some news for you," he said. I swear, what I did next was not hammering. I was just letting the hammer swing lazily at arm's length, and maybe it tapped the fence once or twice, but that's all. That apparently didn't make any difference whatsoever to Dad, because he just grabbed my hammer out of my hand and flung it across the field. And when I saw my hammer flying helplessly through the air like that, I just couldn't take it. I burst out crying, I admit it. And I ran to the house, as fast as my legs could take me.

"Son, come back!" yelled Dad. "What about your hammer?!" But I could not have cared less about hammering at that point. I ran into the house and flung myself onto my bed, pounding the bed with my fists. I pounded and pounded, until finally, behind me, I heard a voice. "As long as you're pounding, why not use this?" I turned, and it was Dad, holding a brand-new solid-gold hammer. I quickly wiped the tears from my eyes and ran to Dad's outstretched arms. But suddenly, he jumped out of the way, and I went sailing through the second-story window behind him. Whenever I hear about a kid getting in trouble with drugs, I like to tell him this story.[/quote]

What the hell are you talking about? Does this have anything to do with Champ Bailey?

if i remember correctly his last season with us he didn't play half bad. then we just let him go (for money reasons i think) and he never signed with anyone... i thought he was a quality player. did something happen with him that i'm unaware of? or did he just disappear?

Mods? can we put this in some nonsense/gibberish place? There is no sense in this.

Well that's a little harsh.

I'd at least like for Lux to reply here and elaborate on his initial thought

[quote=Mattyk;686156]CB isn't coming back. If we make a deal with Denver, it will be for Marshall.[/quote]

What Haynesworth for Marshall? I hope we dont give up any more draft picks this or next season. Even if Denver would do the trade we would then be thin on the D-line. We have to draft Okung if he is there at #4 spot.

I really thought he'd sign on somewhere but it never happened. I tried to keep up with what he was doing but could never turn anything up. As you can tell by my avatar, he was one of my favorite players. :thumb:

Re: Champ Bailey Return?
 

My initial thought was that Champ really liked the way the Shanahan Broncos did business back then. Finally the Redskins are now commanded by Coach Shanahan. Bailey is past his prime and looking for a new contract soon. I'm not trying to spread falsehoods. I believe this is a possibility in the next year or so. Remember yall thought I was crazy saying Favre was gonna come back? That was years ago... Gibbs came back, why couldn't an over the hill good cover corner? All yall haters baseball tonight is on...

The reaction was pretty split to your thread about Favre. But you also said "What about LaVar Arrington returning" after the Giants let him go. "What about Stephen Davis" after Carolina let him go. And my personal favorite "Let's sign Darrell Green. We need him against the Cowboys"

If Bailey returned don't you think we would just wait until he was available on the open market and we got him for dirt cheap. Why trade Albert Haynesworth for a past his prime cornerback looking for a new contract?

Also, Snyder is still the top dog of the organization and I'm not sure Champ's so crazy about that

Re: Champ Bailey Return?
 

Champ will not return to Washington. Next question please.

Re: Champ Bailey Return?
 

I've got a better chance at lining up at CB next year for the Redskins (Justin Tryon-watch your back!) than Champ does.
