I don't buy that today's athlete is all about the $$. I'm also not dumb, I realize that in today's NFL players come and go and 9 times out of 10 money talks.
I think what it boils down to is Gibbs is trying to re-establish the Redskins pride as a franchise. He's trying to recreate an atmosphere that is conducive to winning. Will it help us hold on to our potential free agents? Maybe not. But can it help make the guys who are here play harder and run through walls for the coaches? I think so, and I think that's what Gibbs is trying to do. I don't think he's trying to create a NFL eutopia.
