But yeah, LaVar not playing has everything to do with his on field performance and nothing to do with spite or ego...

What does this have to do with ego or spite??
To me this screams that no individual player is above the goals of the team.
Simple as that.
If this benching had to do with spite or ego, it would be a hollow move, meaning that there would be no solid rationale behind it other than to feed Gibbs' ego. The very sound of that is absolutely ridiculous to me.
Gibbs and co. always have the team's best interests in mind. We may not know the entire story, but we can be sure there are solid reasons why LaVar is riding pine.
If you think otherwise, fine, but that tells me you really don't understand what Gibbs is all about.
