If any of them were standing in front of Haynesworth they would bow down and assume the same position as that the dirty stripper who is trying to steal from him. All of them are pathetic. Matthew Stafford and Sam Bradford haven't busted a grape in the NFL yet both of them have bigger contracts then Haynesworth but all we see is losers talking about a 300 yard shuttle run. This witch hunt is driven by jealousy, plan and simple.
I hope Godzilla takes a cheap shot on every QB he faces this year.

I wouldn't say a witch hunt Pocket. I have a few words for you and that is market share/selling copy or ratings. Preseason is usually downright non eventful til the preseason games get going, unless you get some big name injuries or FA signings. THe fact is since you now do have the internet, cable TV, satellite radio, etc you have a ton of sports writers/broadcasters with nothing to really write about, but they need to write a story to get paid, so they exaggerate on what would normally be a non story or something hum drum. The very thing( the new media) that has freed us from the bondage to the old press is what helps generate this overhyped lunacy, such as the AH drama. In short, the media has grown too big and now they need to actually create news to justify their existence. The glut of media is actually the problem. The hunt isn't to destroy or hurt AH, t he hunt is to create a story that justifies their careers. Ever read the sportswriters from FoxSports.com, or even NFL.com? The mods in here and the more devoted Skins fans in here that really know their stuff could write better drivel than these guys. Shoot even I could given some time and being able to watch sports 24/7.
