Robert Griffin III recently revealed that he will release a tell-all book next year that will detail the sexual harassment he endured while playing quarterback for the Washington Football Team. Griffin’s book titled Surviving Washington, will offer insight into the behind-the-scenes dysfunction that he experienced as a member of the team, including sexual harassment.
“NEW BOOK ALERT!!!” Griffin III announced on Instagram. “It’s time for you to know the truth. SURVIVING WASHINGTON. A Player’s Missteps. A Coach’s Greed. An Owner’s Power. The Sexual Harassment. They say the truth will set you free, so here it is, unfiltered.”
The announcement comes amid reports that the Washington Football Team “reached a $1.6 million sexual misconduct settlement by owner Daniel Snyder and the mistreatment of cheerleaders.”
His announcement has also made some of the team’s former players to put him on blast.
LaVar Arrington, a three-time Pro Bowler who played for Washington from 2000-2005, called it “kind of a b-tch move.” Arrington, who hosts the FOX Sports Radio podcast “2 Pros and a Cup of Joe” with Brady Quinn, called Washington owner Daniel Snyder and “evil dude” but added it is cowardly of Griffin to only speak out after so much about the organization has already been uncovered.
“Why didn’t you do your tell-all three or four years ago?” Arrington asked.
“Because you were scared of backlash that you would receive saying what you believed your truth was in a time where you didn’t have all of the stuff that has come out with the cheerleaders, and the emails, and all this stuff that makes it safe for you to be a front-runner of justice. I hate when dudes do b-tch moves to be heroes and you do it in the comfort of knowing people already know what’s going on. Stand up and be a man, do that ‘S’ before now.”

“I just don’t know what RG3 was thinking, at what point does this benefit him? At the end of the day, nobody is waiting for RG3’s thoughts about Washington,” Smoot said.
“Then he named it ‘Surviving Washington’, was R. Kelly there? Did I miss something? Bobby (RG3) is an irritant, and that’s what Bobby loves to do. Bobby failed at his career in the NFL, let’s be honest, now he wants to bring attention to himself by any means necessary, and that’s why he wrote this book, and I can’t believe somebody is actually going to read it.”
Griffin also stated he is going to explain what happened during the 2012 NFC wildcard game against the Seattle Seahawks.
The franchise is just a complete and utter mess from top to bottom. Even the stadium knows it as it has twice dumped poop water on fans during games.
