I hate these geeky, non-athletic, pencil necked twerps that we know as the "media". All of these pathetic losers who couldn't bust out of a wet paper bag are gutless and spineless. If any of them were standing in front of Haynesworth they would bow down and assume the same position as that the dirty stripper who is trying to steal from him. All of them are pathetic. Matthew Stafford and Sam Bradford haven't busted a grape in the NFL yet both of them have bigger contracts then Haynesworth but all we see is losers talking about a 300 yard shuttle run. This witch hunt is driven by jealousy, plan and simple.

I hope Godzilla takes a cheap shot on every QB he faces this year.

I don't consider Mike Golic(sp) .."a pathetic loser"...who at 47 and out of football for a while ..."gutless or spineless" was able to do the test right away.So from your post AH had no responsability for this at all,his lack of respect for the owner who gave hime everything he wanted,the new bunch of coachs...he wanted,and the rest of his teamates who have been at all the manditory practices,so it was the media not AH...is that right?

Actually, Golic's charade was probably the worst of all. He didn't actually pass the test. For one, they used a camera angle which attempted to hide the fact that he was taking short cuts on the 25 yard distances. Second, he clearly did not finish in 73 seconds on the second try even though he was not running a full 25 yards every time. So for him and other "analysts" at ESPN to use Golic's "accomplishment" to badmouth AH is actually evidence of that all of them are gutless. If Golic was a real man he would have admitted that he came close to finishing the test and that someone like AH, who is in the prime of their career, should be able to finish it relatively easily. The "journalism" at ESPN is driven by one thing, profits.

I am not going to crucify and hold AH to a standard that dozens of players have not met for years. How many times have players decided to do their own thing in the offseason? The Miami guys have done it forever. I am not sure how AH disrespected the owner this offseason by coming into camp 30 - 40 pounds lighter. The owner empowered this man by structuring the contract the way he did, so he got what he paid for. I do have a problem with Albert not showing up to mini-camp if he said he was going to and I also have a problem with asking for a trade after cashing a 21 million dollar check but that is old news now. AH handled this poorly but the sensationalism of what occured was/is pathetic.
