Anyone that's been around here for a while should be able to remember all of the eff(Champ, Smoot, Pierce, Arrington, Coles, etc.) threads that popped up when it was clear that one of them was leaving.

And it's funny to me that a lot of the same people that defend the front office for cutting a player are the same people that bitch at a player for wanting to leave the Redskins organization and play elsewhere.

As a member of the "media machine" I can tell you that this is not exclusive to the Redskins, and it's not exclusive to the team's point of view as well. The players do the same when they want out. Surely you've seen that.
