WP: Haynesworth will skip minicamp, wants trade

I would go one step further. If I am Shanahan, I would actually use the media and teammates to antagonize Haynesworth. I would air all the dirty laundry, call him everything short of a d*&k in the media, and encourage teammates like London and Daniel and McNabb to tell everyone what a shit this guy is.

I would push every button that I could, legally short of slander, and antagonize this guy relentlessly. I would try and make this big baby so furious that there would be no WAY he would consider coming in for Training Camp. Make it so Albert would have to tuck his tail, swallow his pride, and show up for camp humiliated, and I promise you that he won't. He's too big an ego...too much false pride to hear all that smack and show up.

Then, once he doesn't show, I would have firm legal ground to sue for the money and release him outright. He would be lucky to be picked up by a bottom dweller team for an incentive only minimum contract two year deal at that point.

Stick it to him...

Honestly..I think the best thing to do is forget he is on the team. Shanny and Allen put a "no Hayensworth" talk on the team. Advise the media if they talk about Hayensworth, then the session is over. The best way to get this fat ass to either give the money back and get cut/traded or to come to work and play is to just pretend he isn't even a part of the organization. Business as usual at Redskin Park, play football with who we have, and just move on. When he realizes these guys aren't going to give in to what I want, then maybe he'll play, or maybe he'll give some or all of the 21million back and we'll cut him. I just think playing this crap out in the media, having all the guys on the team and front office and being all over the OTA's, the mandatory camps, the papers, ESPN, MASN is exactly what him and his agent want. They want it posted everywhere, talked about all the time so they can say "look at the distraction its causing, get him out of here or cut him or its going to get worse" Like I said, I would just act like he isn't even on the team until he shows up.
