I trust the guys' judgement who wrote in to Deadspin a lot more than I trust Haynesworth's. I'd bet that 90% or more of the players on our rosters were at home past midnight on a Thursday night, either sleeping or doing something not stupid like going out bar hopping to get your drink on.

Would you go bar hopping past midnight on a Thursday night if you had to be at work early the next morning?
Bro, I can assure you many Redskins are out and about during the week drinking, that would include a few coaches too.
Trust me I know all about players staying out late. Difference is the rest came to work ready to go the next morning, even if they were hurting. More importantly for too many years (saw it regularly during the Norv and Spurrier years) those who didn't come ready to play or practice got away with it with no repercussions. That cant fly if we want to ge successful. Albert insisted he had to do things his way to be ready to play. We let him and he ready. You want to be treated like a man, act like one

I'm not sure what's the norm around the league these days, but Redskins players have always been a part of the night life in D.C.[/QUOTE]
