Re: More Haynesworth Drama? Big Al Sounds Off After Ravens Game
 

I sure hope so. Thats what the team needs is a strict coach. Joe Gibbs wouldnt yell, Jim Zorn had no balls, and hopefully Mike Shanahan is the guy to not fool around with.

[quote=SolidSnake84;723123]This makes Shanahan look like a bitch for letting Albert trash him and the rest of the team, and MS not doing anything about it.

Jim Zorn let people walk all over him, especially CP, but now it looks like its the same old same old....[/quote]

Well, to be fair, Shanahan came out Sunday and drew the line in the sand, no practice = no play. I don't see how anyone looks at MS and sees him not doing anything. If anything, I think you see AH's whining as proof that MS is not giving in to an impetuous player. The 2 main questions are, at what point does the shape up or ship out message sink in to AH? and if it doesn't can we get any compensation at all for him?

Re: More Haynesworth Drama? Big Al Sounds Off After Ravens Game
 

If there is a silver lining...Shanny is handling this perfectly. He is really shaping this franchise and getting alot of respect in the locker room. His concept of team has come together and basically says if you dont buy in, we dont need you. That has been impressive and a long time coming with this franchise. I would love to get Danny Boy's pinion bout this.

Agreed. MS isn't taking a backseat to anyone.

Which is so rare for us, having a coach with testicles, even more a coach with testicles that isn't afraid to use em!!!!!

[quote=Mechanix544;723115]Look, I know that everyone wants to take the hardline on this malcontent, and I understand that. But remember this..............

-Over 45 million dollars........repeat, 45 million dollars. What a tough pill to swallow, even for the free spending Snyder.

-Marketability = ZERO. Obviously noone wants the guy, we have been More than dangling him around as trade bait, and not even a nibble.

[B]-Talent = High.[/B] If, and this is a big IF, but IF Shanahan can get this guy to literally get with the program, and he could conceed just a little bit of ground and offer somewhat of an olive branch and just start over, the rewards could be sky high. Its all about ego, and if Shanahan is serious about a title, then doing it with Haynesworth will be alot easier.

A motivated and content Haynesworth is desirable, and if anyone can get him to play, its Shanahan.[/quote]

see this is where i think you're wrong. it doesn't matter how talented a guy is. if he's not motivated and doesn't take his profession seriously then so what? even players from other teams call the guy out for not playing hard. so to me he's just an average player who has talent but holds it hostage cause he's lazy.

[quote=CRedskinsRule;723119]I think your 2nd and 3rd points are the most relevant. I still wish we could have done a three way deal with seattle and sd but AH has pretty much ruined his value in this league.[B] As for the money, tough patooties to Snyder. He signed the contract (albeit in good faith) and if he has to write it off then that's that, that's part of the cost of getting this franchise headed in the new (hopefully right) direction.[/B] After Saturday's speech by AH, I doubt there is any reconciliation with MS possible. And MS didn't leave any doubt or wiggle room for AH to go through this season half-assing it as he has been accused of doing in the past.

Somebody, maybe Fletcher?, needs to take AH out and tell him he needs to shut up, get with the program, and help this team win. If it hasn't happened yet, I doubt it will going forward.[/quote]

Exactly! It's time to move on and just cut the guy and let him be a pain in the ass to someone else.

RT @JReidPost Fletcher and Haynesworth "had a good talk" Monday morning, Fletcher said. LF is convinced that Haynesworth is on board. 2 minutes ago via web

We will see...

my definition of a good talk would be along this line:
LF> Man, what was the BS you threw out Saturday, [insert hard knocks rex ryan language for a few minutes]. You gonna be on this team, or just one fat bump.

AH> Gotcha, you are right. No more excuses from me.

LF> Damn straight

My guess it went more like:
LF> Dude get your head straight
AH> uh huh
LF> You gonna be in this thing
AH> uh huh
etc etc

Screw it, make is life so miserable that he is willing to give back the money to get out of his contract.

I love it, someone tweets that he wishes things would be kept in house. OK, then don't freaking tweet.

That is some really nasty stuff. I hope they pass the Clean Water Act, because that is very disgusting. Click the link especially anyone who boats out there.

Back to the AH talk.
