Arrington tears an acchilles tendon.

LaVar Arrington tore his achilles tendon in the MNF game tonight. they just said it's going to require surgery. I guess he's gone for the year. the guy has injury issues, and he always will.

I saw that. He is oficially done as a decent NFL LB.

He's cooked. Retirement would be an option at this point.

Sadly (and I say this with rue, believe me), he'd had his finest five minutes as a NY Giant immediately prior to the injury. He had a sack and a safety credited to him.
It's a shame.

I feel bad for him.

The only reason I feel bad is because he won't be on the field on 12/31 so we can let him have it!!

I agree, I think he is finished in the NFL now, I do feel kinda bad for him though

Tell me why I don't feel bad for him? edit (CLL) him. Good think we let that POS limp away from DC.

At least he's rich and could have a career in TV.

I am a huge Arrington Fan, and this news sadens me, poor Lavar, with the bad knee already he might not ever make it back to Lavar form I remember.

Yeah man, I felt pretty bad for him when that happened.

And you knew he knew it too. I mean, remember 3 years ago when Jansen tore his, and he knew right away that he was done for the year. Well, did you see LaVar, he was just pounding the ground and stuff because he knew it was over.

I just feel bad for the guy.

Regardless of how I feel about his past, I hate to see anyone get injured.

We can still boo him though, right?

At least, this injury puts an end to the word POTENTIAL associated with his name since he came first to the NFL. :roll:

He deserves that and more.

Does any Lavar hater not see the impact he had for this team? How is our defense now with him gone?

If you can't respect the man at least other offenses and his own teamates did! :roll:

The former face of our franchise most likely just played the last game of his career due to a devastating injury and all some of you people can do is dump on him. :evil:

Real classy.................

And you think telling the media that he stole his former teams playbook is classy? I don't think so!

Also, what impact did Arrington have on our defense last year? He barely played and we still had a top 10 defense. The impact players last year were Marcus Washington, Ryan Clark, Corneilius Griffin, Joe Salavea, Springs, etc.... Arrington didn't factor into the equation one bit, so no, you're wrong IMO. Why else did Arrington get an incentive laden contract instead of one that had a ton of money guaranteed?

Fans of the Redskins have every right to dump on him. His sportsmanship and cry baby attitude were nothing but a detriment to this team. His true colors showed, and what goes around comes around.

Our defensive problems have nothing to do with Arrington, good or bad. They're bad without him, and worse with him.

I love LaVar and was disappointed to see this injury happen to him just when it looked like he was playing well.

I'm just glad he won't have to go through being booed in Washington in December. That's the only silver lining as far as I'm concerned.

I loved Lavar but the only reason he ever was good was because he was on the juice. Look at him his senior year at Penn State then his 3rd year as a skin. Hes TINY! compared to waht he was in college, a freak.

Luckily, he has lots of experience as a cheerleader.

Juice makes your shoulder pads bigger?

Monday night's game was a snapshot of his career... one or two great plays mixed in with a whole lot of nothing else then an injury...

I love how ESPN had a "how will the Giants replace Arrington" segment... this after their own defensive coordinator said he hadn't figured out how to use Arrington yet... shouldn't be too hard to replace him...

LA was not the reason our defense was as good as it was these past few years. The majority of the time he was inujured and ridin' the pine. The last two years he did nothing but complain about money, all the while trying to come back from an injury. I think we're better off without him. Others like Pierce and Harris were bigger losses than LA was.
