ahh yes I've heard about this disease ... I believe there have been less severe cases within the Redskins organization before.. I believe LaVar came down with something similar and Lloyd and Archuletta have also contracted similar symptoms ..though their cases werent as severe being that they werent placed behind a rookie but still very debilitating (sp?) .. might be a strand running rampant throughout our teams locker room
The common thread between Lavar, AA, and BL is that when the Skins shelved them, there was something that made them ineffective and that is the reason they were riding the pine.
Let’s start with the easiest.
AA - was on the bench because he flat out stunk. Can't cover a daisy with a beach blanket.
BL - Just not productive and rubbed the coaching staff the wrong way, yet they gave him a chance to redeem himself early this year and again midseason, but he just kept jumping for balls too soon, was ineffective, continued to push the buttons of the coaching staff, and then broke his collar bone.
Lavar - Bad knees, contract problems, issues w/GW, didn't follow the system.
I don't know what is going on w/Macklin, but the other three all had legit reasons to be on the bench. Lavar is out of football, AA was benched by Lovie (the only guy AA ever played well for), and BL is just an underachiever that most of us overestimated his ability.
