the krabber Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Given the events of today, this seemed appropriate... London Fletcher is the consummate teammate and professional. Once and undrafted free agent, London is a Super Bowl winner and is the heart and soul of the Washington Redskins defense. Told that he was too small to play in the NFL, he played anyway. Told that he is too small to be an inside linebacker in the 3-4, he has showed up, worked with the team every day, and done his very best to learn his new role...no matter what that may be. His latest quotes say it all: Albert made a very selfish decision, this is no different than what we saw last year... One man is not going to stop what we're going to accomplish. I want teammates who I can depend on, who I can count on,,, he's shown he can't be depended on." Here's to you London Fletcher. If only Haynesworthless was half the man you are...

Cruz_97 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 The league needs more London Fletchers and less Albert Haynesworths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idaho fan Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Heres to a true Redskin a true NFL player that has earned what he has gotten. More of a man than Albert can ever hope to be. Some things are priceless - the respect that London receives, the integrity that London has can never be bought by Al. Fletch will leave a legacy for others to look at and hope to obtain.. Fat Al will also leave a legacy... unfortunately. Well done London - thanks for being great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DexterSackMachine Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 London Fletcher is the undisputed leader of the defense and has every ounce of my respect. I hope you DO play until your 40! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsCrushCowboys Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 no ****ing and moaning, shows up and plays every down, gives 100%, sets a good example, great teamate, has not stepped on anyones face, no strippers chasing him around.....damn, I guess he is a great guy!

erock353 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Fletcher is someone you want to be a leader of your team. We are very fortunate to have him as one of ours. I think I'll buy his jersey now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gutlead74 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I thought London was too old when we signed him. I was dead wrong and I couldn't be happier about it. Fletch has been a great LB and even better Redskin! He is a rock! Here's too London! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcl05 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Fletch reminds me of Darrell Green playing LB. We need more like him, on the Skins and in everyday life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Awesome job, London. It's nice to see a player stand up for the organization and its fan base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsTribeVA Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I'm glad Orakpo played a lot of LB last year because he has a head start learning the 3-4 OLB, but I'm even more glad he played a lot of LB because he got to work directly with London Fletcher in his rookie season.

KDawg Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Fletch reminds me of Darrell Green playing LB. We need more like him, on the Skins and in everyday life. As a whole, I completely agree. Just wish he was with us for his entire career. We have some great people on this team. I've personally met Chris Cooley and he's great... London Fletcher seems to be awesome as well.

pjfootballer Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I hope London can play with us forever. Maybe we can get him his second SB ring before he retires for all the hard work he's done for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be the biggest **** YOU! that we could give him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't be happier that all of you were dead wrong. Not me though.
