Haynesworth is Behaving Selfishly

Maybe AH thinks that because he doesn't go to U of T anymore he's not a volunteer. Maybe this is all just a simple confusion based on his college team's name. Somebody call him up and tell him once a volunteer, always a volunteer.

Then we can put this to rest

No, no, no...it's not that he's just missing voluntary workouts; why do we keep missing the point?

The dude is beefing with the coaching staff while he's missing voluntary workouts. He's publicly stated he doesn't want to play NT, so how does missing workouts make you more prepared to do something the coaching staff plan on implementing regardless? If there's any year that he needs to be in camp a little early, it's this year! That's the point.

It behooves Haynesworth, in the interest of making the Redskins a better team, to learn every facet of Hasslet's scheme sooner rather than later. The first time Fat Al gets winded or limps off the field, twists an ankle --anything-- this city will eat him alive Monday morning.

The only way this shit goes away if a) The Redskins exceed expectations and turn in a playoff year, or b) Haynesworth has a monster year. And I'm talking Reggie White monster year. Anything less and the shit hits the fan.

You sure about all that?

100% sure, no. Is Albert on record saying he doesn't want to (or prefers not to) play NT, yeah.

As far as him and the staff beefing, well, what other conclusion should we draw after Shanny and Bruce Allen wanted the entire team here for voluntary workouts and AH wasn't here. As far as I'm concerned that's a problem. And the trade rumors aren't out of thin air, had the right deal come along Haynesworth would be history.

Looking on the brighter side, notice that Rocky and Carlos both have taken part in team activities despite being RFA's. Also notice that the Vikes' Ray Edwards, in the same position, isn't doing even "mandatory" stuff.
