Hopefully he will show up to mini camp to clear the air with the coaches and team...

Not only did LA stress that his problem was with the front office, he repeatedly remarked in the interview how much he loves DC and its fans. In addition, I think that because he made such a distinction between the football and business aspects of what's going on: you gotta believe that he'll show up for the workouts (since Gibbs wants everyone to).

Well, I won't sit here and break down the whole history for you. Let me say it like this. When Gibbs picked up Williams from his home, Joe made an offhand comment to Gregg about the fan base and media here in Washington. Williams response was something to the effect that Buffalo had a pretty busy fan base and media corps as well.
Joe laughed and said, "Wait until you see this. You won't believe it !"
That's what I want to say to you, RR.
Wait until you see this.
You won't believe it !

I reckon I can solve this problem. Here's what I'll do.

I'm gonna go to fan appreciation day, and find LaVar on his own. I'm gonna slap him upside the head and scream "What the hell is the matter with you, dude"? Then, I'll proceed to yell and scream at him until he screams "o.k. I'll drop it".

All I'll need is a .40 caliber beretta and a 100 yard head start. I can fix this!!

I initialled every page and signed the dotted line when buying my house. Legally, that contract stands up in court - I can't go back now and pull something like his agents doing. It's up to the agent and his attorney's to work out the details as well.

That said, Snyder definitely has to stop craping where he eats.

I totally agree 100%. When I read this story I immediatly thought of Michael Jackson....What was he trying to say? That he wanted more money because he is affraid of 666 and the Redskins don't buy into it so they tell him that if he does not want the 666 then argue for less....and this is his reasoning for why the Redskins screwed him? Then he stated that it's not his agents or his fault but the "CONTRACTS." I'm sorry Lavar...I love you but who ever failed to read the contract and failed to make sure everything was in it and signed the contract...it's their fault. It's your fault for not checking everything. It would have been the Redskins fault had they not gotten the contract to you soon enough to get it done on time! So now bite the bullet. Take notes and don't let it happen again next time whether it's with the Skins or not. Hard lessons to learn.

You're not gonna scare a LB out of Penn State with a Berretta.
Want to scare LaVar ? Tell him your Daddy is a Congressman. Tell him if he doesn't drop it, you're going to start a lobby in Washington to have the NFL become a "Flag" Football League.
Ummm, keep the head start, anyway.

What if....

You boss says to you..."look _____...work for me for these next 3-4 years for this set price,plus if you come to work every day for those 3-4 years ill throw in an extra $650"

Then when its time for your raise...he offers you the same "roster bonus"...however he never gave you the last one you earned.
#1. I don't make Millions of dollars...so I will settle for the league minimum.
#2. If I was making that kind of money I would check my contract a little better!
#3. Did you sign for you house or car with out looking at the contract closely to make sure they did not add something you don't agree with? He should have!
#4. I would not go on national T.V. or Radio and use the 666 theory...it sounds to Micheal Jacksonish.
#5. You don't blame the "CONTRACT." The contract could not have wronged you Lavar! Either you wronged yourself or your Agent did! That's like people who want gun control because the guns simply keep killing people. It's not the guns but the people behind the guns. LAVAR..LOOK TO YOURSELF FIRST. Take the blame. I dispise everyone who likes place the blame elsewhere.
#6. I'm still mad about the T.O. ordeal. He was under contract to the 49ers and should have been told to bite it!
't

Do you make a stink about it.
