Re: Haynesworth fails conditioning test

I didn't even want to sit through 24 pages of people argueing about whether it was fair or not. I voted fair. Our beloved former HC Gibbs installed a system in which the choice was on the player, either spend the majority of their off season at the facility working out under the conditioning coach's watchfull eye or stay away and take a physical test upon return. It's not a hard decision. The choice is left all up to the player. It's not being forced on the player at all.

So having said that AH had a choice as did all the other players on the team. But...... the HC said all the other players had already taken the test even though it was informal. In case you all have forgotten at the begining of the OTA's I recall the players running back and forth up and down the field. It also looked like they were being timed by the coach's on the field. So to me it sounds like all the players had to do it also so to simply let AH start practicing with out having completed this conditioning test would be unfair to all the other players who completed the test during OTA's.

Simply put if AH didn't want to have to be put in this situation he should have had his butt here throughout the OTA's and had done his informal test, with out all the controversy.
