This is becoming a no-win situation for all parties involved. On one hand I support Shanny's approach, but on the other it's time to play football. This is something that could have and should have been dealt with prior to Fat Al receiving his $21 million.

It's water under the bridge now and we need to get ready for the Dallas Cowboys. And love it or hate, we need Haynesworth to be in the middle to stop that three-headed beast from Dallas.

I agree, but if he isn't playing games, and his knee is a serious issue, better just stay out til it heals and gets treated than trying to force the issue and maybe have him get truly messed up. The franchise has a lot invested in AH, make sure he is healthy should be a priority. Not makingexcuses, the guy's conditioning truly sucks for losing 35 lbs. Maybe he aggravated his knees as a result of slimming down 35 lbs. Maybe he over did it. Who knows? He could be hiding the extent of his knee problems. That is a different slant. Maybe he overdid it losing the 35 lbs and his knees have been aggravated as a result. If that is the case, he should just come clean and not try and force it.
