Haynesworth fails conditioning test

[murphy196]

I honestly can't believe that some of you guys on here are defending AH and blasting MS. The guy has to set an example to the team and it starts with AH. Yes, what he did was make damn sure that AH would fail the test to show him who the boss is.

The bottom line is that AH took too much time between the first and second run, so he had to do a 3rd.

If you guys want another Jim Zorn with the headset on, please move on b/c we've already found out that won't work around here. The bottom line is that if you cross the coach, you pay the price.

He could have easily beat the hell out of him in camp. Regardless, I'm sick of both of these egos going at it. I hope they can solve this shit by tomorrow so we can move on with our lives.

Personally, I encourage all fans to stop wasting your time talking about this drama crap and discuss relevant football issues in the other threads.

If the biggest price to pay for thumbing your nose at the organization that gave you a $21M check (based on the premise that you were committed once you too the check) is to run 600 yards again tomorrow.....he's getting off pretty easy IMO. He'll come out tomorrow, do the run and move on.

Did I sin against the saintly and impeccable father of all creation know as Mike Shanahan? I didn't know humans were capable of impeccability.
It's RIGHT ON JASON RIEDS WTF**** RI POST THAT HIS TEAMMATES STATED HAYNESWORTH WAS IN BETTER SHAPE AT THIS TIME THAN LAST YEAR.

It wasn't about crossing the coach it was about AH not being in good enough condition to pass the test. OTA's are not mandatory however if your under contract and the teams highest paid player you should be their for most of the OTA's. AH should have not taken the 21 million if he did not want to play here in the 3-4 defense. Ok so now he took the money and after his teammates, other NFL players and alum roasted him for not showing up to OTA's I think he see's the error in his ways. AH will be fine I think he will be a better player and teammate after this is all said and done.

Damnit man! You just jinxed us. The only way to get rid of that unspeakable name is by never posting it again. Now someone's gonna come along and inevitably start using it again.

Ha ha, I know. It's just that it's so bad it's hilarious, at least to me.

Sorry to disagree, but it was absolutely about crossing the coach. MS was going to push AH, see if he was going to tow the line or simply come in and sluff. This is one of those situations, where everybody knows how the game is played, and MS simply was putting an exclamation point on his position.

More importantly though, I am confident AH will pass today, and a new standard of discipline and expectations will have begun in earnest. (Is this really that different than when Marty came in and told DG he WILL be coached differently?) The point is when a new coach comes in, and he believes in a disciplinarian style, he is going to get his point across to all the players by picking certain battles. It seems to me like the team has bought in, and that we will see a far far better on field product because of it.

Absolutely agree, MS is in his first year as the Redskins coach and he absolutely has to not only instill but enforce a new brand of discipline into the team as a whole. This particular line he has taken with Haynesworth is a battle he won't shy away from and shouldn't.

Bottom line, CRedskins said it best, he has to pick and choose his battles and this is one he absolutely should put his foot down on.

Yes, it is an opportunity to set the parameters of discipline for the entire team. I still think that Haynesworth just overperformed on the 1st leg, and it cost him the 2nd leg. I don't think they would have failed him regardless, as so many people keep putting forth. It works in discipline's favor that he screwed up. I still think he's in good shape, and he will be minor distraction this year.

At the very least, he's still a quitter. He never finds a 2nd wind. We will me aggravated as he continues to blow up O-linemen 2 plays, and take 2 plays off. That's just who he is. I'm resigned to it.
