Well, I think for Albert to finally put this to bed, he has to show up and play through the preseason," said Cooley. "He’s got to do his best to stay healthy and continue to play hard. He’s out there working hard right now. He’ll fit right in with the players. But for the story to end, he has to come out and perform a little bit."

Skip Bayless is the shit. he’s playing a character in his writing and on TV, and it’s supposed to grate on people. i for one, love the art of crowd manipulation, so i appreciate that Skip has his detractors, but, believe it or not, he’s more right about more stuf than damn near anybody else in his position.

No, he's not
he’s more right about more stuf than damn near anybody else in his position.

I think Carriker is out to prove something
and I likee that.
Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
It should be within driving distance
of Charlottesville. Maybe you get a discount if you wear the jersey…?

I really wish the coaching staff hadn't jacked Jarmon around as much as they did with
The poor guy was coming off a pretty significant knee injury and they’ve asked him to lose weight to play linebacker( which made some sense), and then asked them to gain it back to play defensive end-this makes no sense as were already heavy at defensive end and somewhat light at linebacker, and why would you want to put extra weight on an already questionable knee?
The world looks mighty different when you're peeking out your belly button
I like him better at DE
but I agree that making him yo-yo his weight and playing style coming off a major injury is not the way to go

I blame Vinny.

Typical knee-jerk reaction
and quite appropriate considering what a knee-jerk to the testicles Vinny is/was.

I'd love to see a line graph
of all the newborn babies given the first name “Vinny” from 2003 to today in the DC area. I bet the line would look like Enron’s stock.

I'm sure you are right
unless the parents are employing the “Boy Named Sue” strategy for offspring success.

Vinny always flares up when the weather's like this

You can lack visible symptoms,
but still pass the Vinny to others. Always use protection when diagnosed with Vinny.
Jarmon may be struggling but he is coachable.
He may have been a #2 pick if he had been able to stay a Kentucky. In that scenario he would not now be on the Skins’ roster.
It does take as much as two years to recover from an ACL surgery and for him it has only been 8 months.
One thing you shouldn’t do with him is to cut him. He might need to get placed on injured reserve if he is still having problems with the knee in September.
I have it for my slop tomorrow...
He might not make the team.

I understand
That Shanahan doesn’t have an ounce of loyalty to any of the players that were here before he was, but I just hope he doesn’t become too impatient, or too “trigger happy” so to speak with cutting players. I’d dread for one of our cut players to end up playing well for another team…
Jarmon was below Holiday of the DE depth chart.
Holiday was born in 1975. He was a 1st round draft pick, but he is up there in age. Jarmon is only 22 and has a lot of potential.

Jarmon
Wow. That’s really disappointing. Better to put him on IR than cut him – he can be great.
