    Lol, I never once brought race into this...I'm speakin more towards a kid who has had his back against the wall his whole life and came out swinging. The guy had one of the most gruesome injuries since Joe Theisman. But yeah, I only root for him because he's white.

    People expect Campbell to be something he's not...and that's be a good player. Mariani has something Campbell never will...a pro bowl appearance.

    So wait a minute. The fact that he's largely unproven after his injuries and the fact that he's had 2 season ending injuries the last two years doesn't make him a bigger gamble than Washington? Really? He hasn't had a return in a live NFL game for damn near 3 years and could have a season ender at any minute, how is that not the epitome of a gamble? Washington has proven to be more durable and flat out better at returning, what more needs to be said?

    My point is their returning abilities aren't equal and history bears that out. People want to say they are equal but Mariani just doesn't have the resume point blank.Our 5th WR got very little burn last season. We barely got Hunter 18 touches. We're going to throw the ball to our backs a lot more this season and Leon has proven to be a decent receiver so don't automatically count him out there either.

    The real question here is Did Whisenhunt grab the mic and tell the crowd how good we will be this year and how we won't be disappointed? ... thought so

    His injury last year wasn't season ending. Our dumb*ss coaching staff put him on IR when he could have been back in a few weeks.

    That's why they're going to battle it out in preseason. If he still has the burst and return ability he had before the leg injury, which he looked like he did last year, I don't see the problem here...

    There isn't a "problem". I said Mariani is a bigger gamble than Washington. You disagreed, and I explained my rationale.It should go without saying that a competition will take place.

    That "dumb*ss coaching staff" kept him on an NFL roster when he would have otherwise been selling cars is what they did.

    That IR move was all for Mariani's benefit.
