Ben seriously compromised the Steelers team this season, and if the truth were known (as in 53 players, coaches, staff....fans, etc) Ben is not forgiven. Just quietly swept under the "family" carpet, and not played out in the media, as it should be.

Same could be applied about you assuming the amazing goodwill of those fans.

Not to mention many fans were willing to look the other way for VJax.

Typical Al. Every once and while he turns it on and dominates. Then he'll take a few weeks off.

Yep, I just cant wait until he has a multi sack game and then half of the haters will be backing AH. I just hopes he turns out to be what has not been so far.

The Albert haters are more predictable than a Joe Gibbs press conference. They would say that he should have had 3 sacks and then will call him fat, say he is lazy, call him overpaid and demand that we trade him.

Are any of those three untrue? Exactly.

You highlighted a clause in his sentence.

I think it would be.....difficult to dispute any of the three negative characterizations?

And for the record, it BIG wants to tighten up his act...man-up, and become a "TEAM" player and an asset to the organization, I am all for him staying.
If not.........get that useless bag o' shit outta' here ASAP

Talk is cheap from that selfish clown. If he makes it on the field tomorrow and plays ok we shall see how long it lasts, I have zero expectations from Fat Al.

Remember we play the Rams.

Scud, did you write this article?

Haynesworth says contract doesn't make him 'slave' - NFL News - FOX Sports on MSN

It couldn't be further from the truth but that is today's media...

What bothers me is that you have to listen to the interview before you come to an opinion. Obviously, the author of the AP story has an agenda just like most of the people who write about Haynesworth these days.

Here is what I took from the interview:

- AH was calm the whole time, even making a couple of jokes.

- While he probably should have said it differently, the "slave" quote was not referring to any current feelings toward the organization. He was trying to explain why he was upset with the team in the offseason (that when they were negotiating the team made some promises to him). The last time I checked, you aren't a bad person because you disagree with your employer on an issue.

- He promised that there are no locker room problems and that he has no issues with any teammates.

- He talked about why he used his trainer instead of going to the team offseason workouts.

- He confirmed, when asked, that he purchased TVs for the front office people who work for the Redskins (including equipment folks).

- He has no problems with coaches Shanahan or Haslett.

Basically, no matter what this guy does or says, the media is going to create a story and sensationalize it.
