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

Now that enough info has come out of his most recent media lashing, I think Al should have just expressed his thoughts to Shanahan in private. Simple as that. It's often normal that injury reports are sometimes vague.

That said, I think his teammates are more annoyed with the media pestering them than Albert himself and insufficent data to conclude he's suddenly off-board in learning the defense and such.

Didn't we not read something to that effect early in the off season that MS is very strict on what comes out of the Redskins Park as far as the injury reports.

As far as him playing when the coaches tell him, well that is your job moron, quit taking everything so personal. Shut up and get to work.

I was at the game against the Ravens Saturday and almost pissed myself laughing so hard. The guy two seats down from me kept screaming "TIME FOR A BATHROOM BREAK HAYNESWORTH, YOU FAT PIECE OF $%!&" in between every play almost that Haynesworth was on the field. Too much...

And by the way. The reason Shanny claimed no one on the Skins staff knew about Big Baby's apparent "rhabdomyolysis" is because he actually has pansifaschietis; a debilitating infantile disease which some babies never get rid of as adults. WedMD says it makes adults lapse into states of childish behavior. Some side effects include temper tantrums, whining, selfishness, and unwillingness to do certain expected tasks.

Along with a case of vaginitis.

No I don't think so, I think it's more of the owner finally backing up the coach.Danny boy's phone has been off the hook for AH.

More details on the Haynesworth/Fletcher 'temporary make things peaceful before they blow up again soon' talk.
[quote]Fletcher: Haynesworth is ‘on board’
Posted: August 23rd, 2010 | Frank Tadych | Tags: Washington Redskins, Mike Shanahan, Albert Haynesworth, London Fletcher, Frank Tadych

The Redskins are ready to move forward, again. Maybe Albert Haynesworth is on board.

A day after the strained (and now very public) relationship between Haynesworth and Redskins coach Mike Shanahan escalated into trading barbs in a he-said, he-said exchange, there seems to be a temporary sense of … resolution normalcy. Enter London Fletcher, one of the veterans who didn’t jump to defend Haynesworth during the offseason.

“We had a great conversation. I feel good about where he’s at today,” Fletcher said of Haynesworth, via the team’s Twitter account.

He added, “Just speaking to him, he’s definitely on board for what we’re trying to do.”

Haynesworth might be on board, but now he isn’t talking. According to The Washington Post, Haynesworth declined to field questions on Monday, and when asked when he would, replied “Never.”

While Haynesworth remains mum, we’re starting to see quotes surface from teammates, who appear fed up with the same conversation. Until Terrell Owens and Chad Ochocinco up their game, Redskins Park is now the center of NFL drama.

[quote]Even before the rift between Albert Haynesworth and Redskins coach Mike Shanahan ratcheted up over the weekend, the defensive lineman's behavior since opting to skip mandatory and voluntary offseason workouts has annoyed players well beyond the nation's capital.

Several players around the league have told me that Haynesworth is viewed as a major hurdle to the cause of future free agents landing big contracts. Owners, they contend, will be overly reluctant to pay large deals to guys out of fear of them responding like Haynesworth has. In fact, a lot of players feel it's a foregone conclusion.

I guess that's one good thing to come out of this, salaries are getting out of control especially for rookies.

Honestly I don't know how good that is. The thing with rookie salaries is, everybody agrees that a rookie salary cap is a good idea, and the money being saved from having a rookie draft pick salary cap is supposed to go towards vets who have earned it in free agency. But if owners start getting scared about giving out big free agent deals for fear of signing the next Haynesworth, well then no player benefits. And if the players don't think they are going to benefit, they aren't going to agree to it in the next CBA. So it might end up being a hinderance to a new CBA getting agreed to, especially if owners insist on putting some sort of clause in there to prevent this Haynesworth type drama from ever happening again.

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

Cutting him would be dumb for a couple reasons...
1st,he gets what he wants
2nd,he's playing for the Giants the following week. OK..I being presumptuous,but they offered close to what we paid..lol

Point is,you cut him and he's playing in your division or even same Conference.

You trade him,if you have to unload him.
If it's for a 2058 6th round pick...then fine,but you don't cut the guy.

and 3rd,we could use a player or draft picks for what the team has shelled out for this guy.

We're already down a 3rd and 4th for next season already. be nice to add picks instead of shipping them.

The perfect scenario?
Would be to trade the guy for a position of need or other player on the block.
Like Fat Al involved in trade with San Diego for V.Jackson.
Or maybe we snatch Revis from the jets
Heck,I would trade for OT Marcus McNeill,even though we don't need a tackle before just cutting haynesworth and getting nothing.

Problem is..chargers run a 3-4 I believe

But it's getting to the point where I would [B]ALMOST[/B] trade him to the Giants just to get rid of the guy.
(Course..I would expect Undrafted WR rookie Victor Cruz at a bare minimum though...lol)

It doesnt seem to me that rookie salaries are out of control. Granted there are maybe a dozen or so rookies that get huge contracts without ever playing a snap in the NFL, and they get all the attention, if you look at rookie salaries in toto I think its pretty obvious the vast majority of the rookies dont make big $. I think if a rookie salary cap is implemented the players union will surely insist on a minimum rookie salary as well, and I suspect that minimum will be higher than what the majority of rookies are currently getting. My bet is that there wont be a rookie salary cap because owners will realize that in the long run it will cost them more $.

Nice, but I find the depiction of Albert to be way off. First need the moon size diamond bling hanging from his ears and then cameltoe would be appropriate to show his vagina.
