Mods it is that time of the month again...no, i'm not talking about PMS. It's time to lock and kill a thread.

Re: Stop complaining about Champ Bailey
 

I don't hate champ, and he's not overratted either, it's because they change the rules where you can't get physical with the receivers anymore, so now WR have more leave way, I said earlier in a post that Denver stacking there team, because the have to face Randy Moss twice a year, and since Den and Oak hate each other, the more pressure up front, the better the chance the DB's have of making play's.....Champ is still a top 3 DB in this league, bottom line

[QUOTE=jdlea]I'll start off by apologizing for calling you a jackass. I just feel attacked when I put up a thread and a lot of people tear it apart. I'll say it stemmed from your post when you said I needed to shut up about something and you just started cussing up a storm for like 3 sentences. To me, I felt attacked. However, that didn't give me the right and I do apologize.

Now, I'll answer your questions. I think he is arrogant. I think he has the right to be. I think when he's on his game, he's the best in the league. Last year, I'd put him top 5-7. I think he has a great dislike for the organization, not the team. I don't think he holds any ill will toward the city. I don't think he likes Snyder and I don't think he trusts him.

I'll say again. I apologize for calling you a jackass.[/QUOTE]
appology accepted and i hope you can take accept mine:food-smil

Re: Stop complaining about Champ Bailey
 

This is getting ridiculous ladies, keep it up and we'll have to start booting people.

Re: Stop complaining about Champ Bailey
 

I definitely accept yours.

Matty, we got it worked out amongst ourselves. No need to boot anyone.

Re: Stop complaining about Champ Bailey
 

Champ Bailey left....hey isn't that LAST YEAR'S NEWS?!?!?

Please get over it and talk about something that actually matters.

Re: Stop complaining about Champ Bailey
 

[QUOTE=jdlea]First of all, why did Champ have any reason to believe the Joe Gibbs era would be different than anyone else's? Joe has more credentials and everything else, but he's not a spring chicken. If I were Champ I would have worried that could leave at any time. Champ played for 1 less coach than he had years in the league when he was with Washington. I think he played 1 1/2 season for Norv and 2 for Spurrier. Spurrier left then we got Joe. The guy that Snyder wanted all along, right? Wrong. That was supposed to have been Spurrier.

Second, I'm tired of this "he plays for the money" bullsh*t. Yeah, he got a bigger contract in Denver. You know what sold him on it? The contract is front loaded. If he had signed the same deal with the Skins he would have had to restructure 3 years in or have been cut. Just because he played bad doesn't mean he doesn't care. Another question...did we make the playoffs last year? No. Did Denver? Yes. Was Denver a better team than Washington? Yes. I don't care if they got blown out, we weren't anywhere near a playoff caliber team.

Finally, we [B]TRADED[/B] Champ Bailey. He didn't pick where he wanted to go. We got a top flite running back for him. Clinton Portis is as good a back as there is in this league so let it go! Champ for Portis. OMG, we gave up a second round pick. So what? If he played well we wouldn't have resigned him anyway, so what does it really matter?

Bottom line. He went to a better team and a better situation. Say what you want about them not winning playoff games, at least they play em. Say what you want about Plummer at least he lead em to the playoffs. Say what you want about the money...Denver's better. Bailey and a 2nd for Portis? Even after a "sub par" I'd still make that deal any day of the weak and twice on Sundays.[/QUOTE]


Are you dating Champ? J/K (i'm really joking jdlea)

Seriously, Champ no longer plays here so why even mention him? Let's talk about the current players on our roster, not the guys we traded 2 years ago. Who cares?

That's kinda my point. We always find some way to talk about him though. It kinda frustrates me because I loved Champ when he was here. However, he wore that out when he left. My whole point has been "who cares?" Cause I don't. I just get tired of talking about him. That's the reason I made this thread.

I hear ya jdlea. Everyone has their own opinion on Champ, and we should just keep that to ourselves. Theres no point in bashing him now that he's gone.

I'm just pissed because I bought his jersey!

Re: Stop complaining about Champ Bailey
 

Yeah, I bought his jersey when he was a rookie. It was the first football jersey I ever bought with my own money.... :banghead:

Re: Stop complaining about Champ Bailey
 

Mine was Heath Shuler.

Re: Stop complaining about Champ Bailey
 

Just kidding. Honestly, I would wear one around just to be different.

Re: Stop complaining about Champ Bailey
 

Should we always focus 100% of our energy on the Redskins? Doesn't that just cause us to be ignorant about other teams in the league?

I see nothing wrong with a discussion about Champ - without all the bickering.

Re: Stop complaining about Champ Bailey
 

lol "i created a thread to discuss how we should stop talking about champ"

doomed from inception ;)

LOL! This is a Redskins forum...of course we'd focus 100% of our energy on the Redskins.....unless it's another team or player that is directly involved with the Redskins....
