Top 10 Reasons Why RG3 Should Request Trade to Bucs


Hopefully, Robert Griffin III (RG3) will fully recover from his recent knee surgery and continue to dominate football as one of the NFL's most exciting players ever. But is he safe in the hands of greedy Redskin's owner Daniel Snyder and "win at all costs" coach Mike Shanahan?

With Josh Freeman's contract up for renewal, I feel now is certainly the time for RG3 to request a trade to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and my Top 10 reasons are below.

10. The weather in Tampa is considerably better than in Washington, DC, particularly during the harsh months late in the football season. Injuries and bruises heal faster in Florida.

9. Ronde Barber would decide to stick around another year to be a London Fletcher type of mentor.

8. He would no longer be confused with Cedric Griffin. Coach Schiano does not tolerate drug abuse. Just ask Aqib Talib.

7. The Bucs' groundskeepers keep the playing surface in top condition, unlike the field at FedEx Field which receives little maintenance.  Because Snyder had spent too much on gourmet food for the owner's box, the Redskins could not re-stripe and paint fresh logos on the field for a nationally televised NFC Playoff game.

6. Doug Martin reminds me a lot of Alfred Morris.

5. Rather than slur indigenous people, Bucs' fans head to the Hard Rock Seminole Casino after the game to hand them their money.

4. Tampa fans could care less about politics and do not realize the geographical difference between Washington DC and Washington State.

3. Rebecca Liddicoat would enjoy the pristine beaches over the dirty city, and with better schools and churches, Tampa would be an ideal place to raise children.

2. RG3's orthopedic surgeon, Dr. James Andrews, owns a home in Florida and practices in Gulfbreeze one day per week.

And the #1 Reason: Unlike Mike Shanahan, Coach Schiano would always protect his long term investments and would never sacrifice a star player's career, particularly with a 14-0 lead!

And many would ask, since the Redskins virtually sold their soul to acquire RG3, what would this deal cost?  I think it would take a trade for Eric Wright and Vincent Jackson, two second round draft picks, and a boatload of Adderall.

As you can see in the photo below, the last time Robert Griffin III visited Tampa, he asked the Buccaneers to pray with him for this trade to happen!
