If Revis has an island does that mean that Haynesworth gets a continent?

he gets a tectonic plate, the Fat Al's Plate (get it like a plate... for food... ok, i'll stop now...)

Does anybody else think Haynesworth might not be passing because he doesn't want to pass so he can't practice?

I highly doubt it because of the following:

1. Mike Shanahan wouldn't allow this to happen. If it were the case, I would imagine he'd put the conditioning test aside and make him practice.

2. While AH has done dumb things in the past, this would be REALLY stupid of him to do.

Personally, I think people need to over-analyze this situation. There are more important things to discuss and over-analyze.

Soon, Albert is going to get pissed off and start stepping on some heads.

Yes, but this is Albert Haynesworth. I saw an interview last year about him talking about playing with his daughter's dolls.

Given how Shanahan has beaten the hell out of him in the public eye, do you really think he'd let him get away with this?

If AH is really faking all of this to not practice, then either MS is really dumb for not noticing or AH is doing a helluva job hiding it from him.

Shanahan had planned to make him pass a test to practice. Albert's playing games with it and since then, Coach has come out and said publicly that AH could end up practicing without passing the test...he's on top of things and knows what Fatso is doing...but won't let it derail the training camp for the entire team.

I have no doubts that we're running a highly structured, effective and overall great camp for the entire team. Haynesworth is not interfering with anyone but himself and the media who drools over another day of Chicken Little Redskins reporting.

At this point, yes. He's NOT in that bad of shape.

Yeah, while being examined by a professional medical staff, a head coach who sticks to principles and is certainly watching him, and a conditioning coach who he reportedly has a good rapport with, and some initial assurance that he won't be Mr. Nose Tackle after all. You think they're going to let him get away with it OR he go and disappoint Wright?

Then there's his own actions. First the potty break, then WANTING to run it again despite being advised by Ray Wright to just wait till the next day. Makes no sense to me. I know that if I wanted to bomb it, I would have taken to "let me rest" option than try the test again.

However, I truly believe that starting in Week 1, all of this media-driven circus drama will not mean a thing, Shanahan will run a tight ship and we'll be seeing more of this:

Don't think he's faking it, the team doctors are holding him out. He's not staying out on his own.
