Come on, we aren't talking Al Davis, or Detroit FO type moves. Every one of the owners is a businessman first, and they understand what DS is doing. If it was egregious Tennessee would be screaming, but they aren't. The article that started this was the equivalent to a JLC/Sally Jenkins article- well written, but basically without any substance. And remember the audience it was written too, a tennessee fan base still frustrated that they did not re-sign AH. No way the other owners are thinking less of DS or the Redskins due to this signing. (or atleast the "tampering" aspect of it, they may be aggravated at the overall contract as it is written)

Does any of it really matter? If Haynesworth wanted to stay in Tenn. he would have. He either would have signed an agreement prior to FA or looked at what he could have made and asked Tenn. to try and match it. I know some of you are the rules type of person. Rules, rules, rules. Yes. but take a moment and think about it. Would it have mattered whether we met the previous week or spoke with his agent at 12:01am? We were committed to making a better offer then Tenn. We were committed to signing Haynesworth...aparently Tenn. was not or they would have came back with a bid higher then ours. Yes that creates a bidding war but DS was ready to out bid and aparently Haynesworth had no hard feelings about saying bye otherwise he would have stayed where he was.

Everyone knows including the commish. That if Mr. Snyder wanted him. Nobody would have been able to out bid him. (period) No cap is gonna be fun with Snyder

I couldn't find the proper place for this so I'll stuff it here. Other Skins boards are happy Vinnie did his homework. lol. Hopefully this does not get ugly or the Commish makes him sit out games.

Yeah, Rock is there smoking gun.

I'll say again. There's a lot of I'm guessing it happened and more then likely it did. but I truly hope they are not hanging their hats on the fact:

“I kind of had an idea they were going to sign [Haynesworth] anyways,” Cartwright said. “One of my teammates said they had the same agent and . . . he said they had been talking.”

There is no doubt that Snyder and Haynesworth agent was talking. The question is what were they talking about. One could infer it was about Haynesworth but we truly don't know cause we were not at the dinner.

Let me get the Skins in trouble also maybe the Titans will use me as a witness...."I kinda of had an idea the Skins were going to sign Haynesworth anyways also." If DS wants something he will pay for it. We pretty much heard the day before that DS was going to out bid the Titans for Haynesworth. So I already had an idea.

Now knowing no one is a moron, I'm betting DS did talk about Haynesworth. but I will repeat what I said before. No matter if the deal got done at 12:01 (which it didn't. It was done at like 4 or 5am) or 10 days later, DS wanted AH. DS was going to out bid the Titans for AH. If AH wanted to stay with the Titans he would have told us no and signed with the Titans. If the Titans truly wanted to keep AH they would not have let the Skins out bid them for him. The Titans would not have let AH hit the open market. It's apparent AH did not like the deal the Titans were offering so he decides he wanted to test FA. AH leaves for another team that offered a better contract and the Titans did nothing. Now they are upset cause their whole Defense was designed around AH who was apparently their cog that makes the defense work and they let him go.

That's like designing an offense around Payton Manning and then letting another team take him away in FA. Now you have an offense that is going to go no where cause you failed to make sure you didn't lose your most intricate piece to the puzzel. I think if I was a Titans fan I wouldn't be mad at DS I would be mad at the Titans team owner for not offereing a more lucrative contract that would not have made AH want to test the market. Now all the Titans...owner, coach's, and fans are boo hooing. Suck it up and draft a nose tackle. have a nice day.,

Some dope said that in the comments section, it's not correct.

[CRedskinsRule]

I believe San Fran lost a draft pick over Lance Briggs

This really isn't news... everyone talks. The question is can it be proven with some sort of tangible documentation? Hearsay won't hold up.

Exactly! Now I can see the Commish calling DS and making sure he knows about the tampering rules and telling him he better not be doing anything against NFL rules.

No big deal.

I agree. You better believe Danny has his FO team interpreting the rules for him as we speak just in case there is an investigation or call from the Commish. Danny will cover his a$$ on this one.

Considering that PFT is the only "source" of this, I think it renders no credibility. They're just trying to create news.

[SBXVII]

Ok now lets get seriouse for a moment. I have a friend who has a friend who works for the Skins in the mail room who over heard that Mike Florio, you know him he's the person who writes for PFT, supposedly is interested in DS. Supposedly he thinks DS is the Shiznit and apparently DS does not swing that way and turned him down. Now Florio is doing everything he can to make DS look bad or get him into trouble. So the rumor goes.
