Cyber Pimp Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Right when we made the playoffs with the win against Philly. LA invited the media in his home for a vent session. He talked bad about the team and Gibbs. The hell with Lavonia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terpfan Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 If he apologizes... fine.. But only because I feel kinda bad for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChampSkinsFanatic Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Yea he should be allowed to. Once a Redskin always a Redskin. Champ Bailey is welcome back to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dez_mick Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I don't have a problem with it. He made his name here. He did next to nothing as a giant and still lives in and has tie to the area. All you haters who won't accept LA as a redskin need to just get over it. So what if he bad-mouthed the staff. If you went through the kind of front office and coaching turnover that marked most of his redskin career, you'd be a little bitter too. The fact that he would want to be remembered as a Redskin, if he indeed wants to, should count for something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgun88 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Where is the option that just says "Yes"? I don't care if he apologizes. I wouldn't mind if he retires a skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant15fromNJ Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 If he wants to I would say yes hes was a great redskin for 5 years untill he broke down with his knee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praise_gibbs Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 When this poll closes.. I will be 25 going on 26. LOL! I wouldn't mind him retiring as a Redskin.. I just do not want this organization to give him anymore money. He showed already how bad he wanted Redskin money.. he gave it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tex Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 No problem here. Let him retire a Redskin if thats what he wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooper Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Definitely. Though it would be nice if he went on Inside the NFL and apologized to Gibbs for trashing him on the same show but I won't hold my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I dont think he needs to apologize, thats humiliating after all this time, and petty to bring up at this point when he is in serious pain and on the verge of ending his career. If he wants to retire a Redskin, ( I doubt he would want to) then i say let him sign a one day deal, get it done and we wont have to hear his name ever again. Yeah, is wasnt pretty when we parted ways with him, but its over, no need to drag him in the streets and bring all that back up. Let him retire with a single shred of dignity, if this is where he wants to retire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk McGirk Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 great players go back and sign a one year contract to retire with a certain team, lavar was not a great player. injuries may not have been his fault, but he just didnt live up to the hype and he has zero chance at a HoF spot so why would he need to retire as a redskin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin01GT Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 People fail to realize that for the players and coaches, its a business. Heck, I've bad mouthed previous employers.....the only difference is I didnt have a camera stuck in my face. No matter how much everyone here likes Joe Gibbs (myself included), Lavar has every right to voice his opinion about a person or incident that affected HIM. Having said that, if the man wants to retire a skin then so be it as its up to the people he badmouthed to firgive him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.20640 Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 I think he should be able to why not I like LaVar I just didn't like the way he blamed everyone else cause he couldn't get the Gregg"s D-fense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Arrington was an emotionally immature player who wasted a good chunk of his talent and playing career by not becoming a student of the game and mastering the fundamentals of sound defensive football. He relied on his natural ability and speed and once injuries reduced those advantages, he didn't have the experience to count on to counterbalance that drop and remain a formidable player. That said, there are worse cases of players and organizations not getting along and then burying the hatchet than this one. I doubt though, that Arrington will want to retire as a Redskin. At least in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman330 Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 After giving a "Year in Review" interview the week of the last game of the season against Philly; a game that had we lost we would not have gone to the playoffs, after badmouthing the coaches and the FO........... HELL NO!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewCliche21 Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 This board is effing crazy. Someone who contributed nearly nothing to our team, only made the playoffs while on the bench while he moaned and groaned over nothing, swore that he'd never play for another team, PAID TO GET OFF OF THE TEAM, went to a division rival, kept our playbook, and bad-mouthed JOE EFFING GIBBS does NOT deserve to ever wear the colors burgundy or gold ever again. If you think otherwise, then you should rethink your standards for Redskins-class players. We're not the Cowboys, Eagles, or G-d forbid the GIANTS, so stop acting like it!

NattyLight Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 I just don't get you people. Lavar blew goat balls. At his prime, he was nothing more than above average. I'm glad he likes DC and all, but that really means nothing. EDIT: Misinterpreted the question. Sould he be allowed? Sure. Do I care nor want him to? No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tastes Like Chicken Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 After a public apology, sure. He was the face of the franchise for years. I personally think he was overhyped/overrated, but what harm can be done for him to retire with the team that he spent most of his career with. Of course, I am a very very forgiving person. I could understand the opposing argument very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
