LaVar Arrington Quotes


LaVar Arrington

I take it day-by-day, man, ... Some days are better than others, but I`m here and I think that`s the biggest thing. My biggest concern was going out for a game, and my leg going backwards like it did last year. I played pretty well in that San Francisco game (Dec. 18), and then my leg went totally downhill after that. Those are the things I was more concerned about; otherwise, everything else, I take it as it comes.

Everything is cool with me and Warrick,

I don`t want my situation to be a distraction and a problem.

I gave Emmitt a hug after his last game (with Dallas) and told him I was proud to have played against him.

It was loud on the field. That always creates opportunities for a defense when the crowd is loud like that.

I didn`t play. There ain`t nothing to talk about.

(Arrington hopes to be a factor, to help the NFL`s third-ranked defense from last season soar even higher. But rather then feed into the hype with his trademark bold and brash comments, he is preaching restraint.) My sense is not to buy into all of that, ... If we buy into it, we`re kind of setting ourselves up. I don`t want to be a part of a quote that said that we were going to be special this year. I think we`ve got the makings of a great unit, and that could make for a pretty interesting season, but we`ll see what happens.

That`s been like the biggest misconception of who I am. People think I`m selfish. They think I`m this and think I`m that, and that`s not me. How about this: I just want to see the Redskins win, dog. That`s the bottom line, and we`ll go from there. That`s my main focus. No matter where I fit into all of this, I just want to see us win. I`ve been here six seasons, and I`m tired of losing.

Warrick can play, man. Warrick can play. Go back to (when he was with) Cleveland, and especially back in Chicago. He can play, no question about it. The man has talent. He can play.

I was just a rookie, and I don`t think Troy realized how fast I was. We`ve seen each other a lot since then (because Aikman broadcasts games for Fox), and we joke about the play, but you never want to hurt someone.
