Lavar says he was misquoted - he wants to remain a redskin for his entire career

[mooby]

There's an exclusive interview with Lavar tonight at 11 p.m. on channel 9 news.

Misquoted?? that is a little well that is easy way out. I am and always will be a lavar supporter but like Jerry seinfeld said todays sports people don't cheer for players, they cheer for laundry and whoever is wearing that laundry is who they cheer for.

Lavar in my opinion will be here next year. i want him here but if he said any of this shit this week i am gonna get pissed because as gibbs said the entire town should have one focus-eagles. I am glad he now has to waste his ****ing time on the news because he wasted time earlier this week.

Better have a good excuse

bauer... take it easy... we don't know the whole story yet..

56 needs to go. And instead of retiring that number, burn it.

[dmek25]

we dont need anyone who creates friction during the week of the biggest game for the redskins in the last 6 years.the redskins and coach gibbs have already proved that NO ONE is bigger than the redskins organization

I love these threads that say I love Lavar...BUT, its time for him to get the hell out of Washington.

Dude says he was misquoted. I'm gonna at least give him the benefit of the doubt.

[MTK]

He's always misquoted and always the victim.

It's getting old. Just shut up and play.

i'm one of lavar's biggest fans and i would hate for him to be cut. I realize this situation is becoming kind of old, and fans get tired of it. But i still see a lot of hate directed toward him the past few years. It's like people blame him for all of the redskins past problems. One player can't ruin a season. He hasn't been the same since that knee injury, but give him a good offseason with no problems and I believe he will be back 100% next year. These past two years, true, he hasn't been worth it, but is it worth it to cut him just because of that? Even if lavar doesn't do shit on the field, when he's out there other teams account for him and where he's at. I believe that he still wants to finish his career as a redskin on a good note.

This should not be something the Redskins need to worry about with one of the biggest games in years this Sunday. Beat Philly, go to the playoffs and win then discuss LaVar. Can't let it become a distraction.

I think he handled getting benched this season with grace. He didn't portray himself as a victim or attack Greg Williams and Gibbs, but instead went into the film room, studied, and got better.

Seems to me like just shutting up and playing is what he's trying to do with this current situation.

Any updates yet?

This isn't the first time he's been "misquoted." Perhaps he should learn to think before he speaks.

[BigSKINBauer]

Well i guess it was exclusive. -he was standing by his car with the door open- ummmm was it an interview, meh 2 questions

- "i want to be a redskin, whether i am wanted or not I don't know. I'm unsure about it-Just like i said in the article- I'm unsure about it(saying this shruggy his sholders and talking fast.)

- "but i want to be here and another thing i made very clear is I feel very strongly about my fans I-i kno-kn I SEEN they feel strongly bout me. That, that is what i talked about.
-" this isn't me trying to be a pre madonna or anything like that you know i I have handled this situation- WHAT EVER MY Situation has been during the whole season with dignity and respect"
-------------------------------------
that is the enitire thing word for word. We never heard the questions

I dont know if he was misquoted or if these are old comments but it does not seem like Lavar is happy here. From what I can gather and after hearing him tonight on CBS news, it seems as if he definitely said something this week, and that is enough for me to say that he probably has to go. Sure, the media could have exaggerated his comments and made them look worse than they really were, but for Lavar to even bring up any issues he has with the organization dealing with him personally and not the team cannot be condoned at a time like this. He's got to think about the team and realize that we are gearing up for possibly the biggest game in years and don't need any sort of distraction.

We were the number three defense in the league without him last year and I know we will be just fine if he isnt a Redskin anymore. As for the present, stop stirring up conflict and go out and play. Otherwise, he can sit on the bench.
