Lavar to the Giants?

Redskins_P · 04-04-2006, 12:09 PM

I just heard on the radio (980 AM) that apparently Lavar is about to sign a 6 yr deal w/ the Giants.

Sorry fellas, I have no link or details on the contract. If anyone finds something related, please help me out and post it.

Did he come down on his asking price?

:vomit: LaVar is probably touching himself at the prospect of playing in the biggest media outlet in the world.

I think he fits in very well there. Unfortunately we will see him twice a year and he will have a huge chip on his shoulder which does not bode well for opposing teams.

That's assuming, of course, that his knee holds up and he actually plays in the games against us. I'm not sure that is a given...

The Giants are still in the hunt for linebacker LaVar Arrington, a three-time Pro Bowler with the Redskins. An Internet report said Arrington and the Giants were close to on a six-year deal.

This is the only other report I could find about the alleged signing.

If LaVar does sign with the Giants, I hope he signed a really big deal $$$$$. Eat up as much of their cap space as possible. Although I wish him well, I hope that he doesn't play well against us.

I DONT WISH HIM WELL, F-HIM. If he plays for the Giants, why would a Skins fan wish him well?

cause he might be a decent human being outside of football?

CooleyAsCanBe · 04-04-2006, 01:10 PM

I'll wish him well as a person, but if he plays in the NFC East, his success is inversely linked to ours, so I won't wish him success on the field.

Seriously...why does everyone try to hate anyone who leaves Washington. Like wishing illness on their family or something? It is only football. It's a game. Washington wasn't going to use him so he went somewhere esle. It's all business, remember?

That's what everyone says when players get cut for salary cap reasons, but let them choose to leave and that makes them an @$$hole? That's ridiculous.

Yes, I agree. I think he could have chosen to play for another team outside the division if he really wanted the redskins to do well. And I don't buy that he wanted to come back to fedex field for the fans deal, I think he wants to tell everyone - I told you so.

But guess what, I think if he signs a much lesser contract then he expected - then the redskins have the right to say, I told you so, to him for what he thought he was worthy of. If he signs a big contract with the giants, then it's still good - more cap space eaten up hopefully for the length of the contract.
