Well I got some interesting news recently. I was attending my family reunion last weekend and talking Redskins with one of my distant realtives. He is employed by Washington based radio station WTOP. He was telling me that some of the sports guys around the station were talking about the real reason LaVar wasn't playing. If you think back to the offseason the was a big dispute between LaVar and Dan Snyder over like 8 million that LaVar was supposedly owed. This dispute went to arbritation and LaVar ended up being awarded the money. Well suppoedly Dan Snyder was not to pleased with this decision and told Joe Gibbs that he had to bench LaVar for a few weeks. This story seems to fit and would make sense if Snyder was really pissed about the decision. Also the source which this comes from is a reliable one in WTOP. This is one scenario that may never be proven since Snyder would do his best to cover this up. I think this is an interesting topic to discuss so.....Discuss.

Interesting! I am obviously a huge LaVar fan and said from the beginning the reasons Joe and Staff benched LaVar was not because of playing ability. However, I have somewhat moved on from that decussion and am pumped that he back on the field full time. I would like to bring up the Coles issue, that Danny got personal with him as well. Telling him he would be sitting home watching the games on the Plasma he was sending. This was leaked through the media, and had some reliable sources as well. I would not put it past Danny to get personal, but always thought him and LaVar had a pretty good relationship. I just hope this crap does not effect his playing in DC.
