Wilbon really goes out of his way to be a bytch ass nikka

"I've seen it for 30 years" :what:
The Redskins were a perennial playoff team and won a couple Super Bowls in the 1980s and another one in 1991.

This organizational drama really started after Joe Gibbs left the first time.

Wilbon has lived here since the 1970s and has no concept of history.
this nikka is just a lie. end of

He covered them as a beat reporter during the 80s and early 90s.

"When a marquee player, let alone a franchise quarterback speaks, there is usually enough decorum and command of presence for any behavior of that kind to subside. We don't see or hear about this when Tom Brady addresses the media, nor Aaron Rodgers, or the Mannings. Therefore, the incident prompted me to inquire about Washington’s franchise quarterback. My question was does Robert Griffin III have enough respect within the locker room? I was told 'no' by several people, including one source who said Griffin had 'alienated himself' from teammates."/QUOTE]

:camby:

"There were two components to that report. The first component was that Robert had alienated some of his teammates. The second component was that the level of hostility because he has alienated his teammates rose to such a level that his teammates shouted him out of the locker room, essentially because they do not respect him. Had Britt stopped with Robert alienating some of his teammates, that report I would not have had a problem with … It would be shocking with all the stuff that has happened over the past two years if Robert had not alienated some of his teammates. If she had reported there was a scene in the locker room when Robert was conducting his first interview since coming back and the interview had to be moved out of the locker room because players were making a bunch of noise, that would have been fine. What was not fine and what was inaccurate was this link that there is such hostility toward Robert because of the way he had alienated the team."

Was this disrespectful to Robert? Absolutely. Would this have happened to Peyton Manning or Tom Brady? No way. But if you had a pie as to what percentage was contempt for Robert and what was contempt for the media, 99 percent of the pie was contempt for the media."
