Albert is so far down the list of our problems when it comes to winning football games it is comical. It is real annoying to hear Albert takes all the hatred of fans because he signed a 4 year 48 million dollar contract. We went after him, he didn't beg to come here. He signed up to be a 4-3 DT and never wanted to play in a 3-4. He made that clear. So Al should get some benefit of the doubt. I still think he should have come to the offseason workouts to support the new coach but this whole mess isn't all of Albert's fault. And btw, he is still probably the best player on our team. |

Re: Haynesworth might learn a few things about Shanahan from Plummer
On the real though, I am glad 80 plus percent of people on the Path support Shanny.
To be clear, I suppose whatever Shanny wants as I want him to be the clear one in control. So we can trade AH, and no love lost here. But at the same time, voluntary workouts mean nothing to me.

I love the Candle commercial.
I also love scathing sarcasm.

Re: Haynesworth might learn a few things about Shanahan from Plummer
lol SS.
Yeah I guess I am in April Fools mode still. Well not really, I have given up getting upset at stupid posts. Best way of dealing with them IMO.

Re: Haynesworth might learn a few things about Shanahan from Plummer
If I was Haynesworth and I was determined to work out with my guy I would at least show up for the voluntary minicamp and also stop by to learn the defense a day or two a week.

Re: Haynesworth might learn a few things about Shanahan from Plummer
It looks like Haynesworth is determined to get off this team soon by forcing their hand. He is unhappy here and wants to leave. He will never live up to that contract and he knows it. It sounds like he is a mid-west, low key guy who doesn't want any negative media attention. It was a horrible signing, and the new staff is stuck with an overpaid and unhappy talent. I think they would accept a 2nd round pick for him on day 2 of the draft. This is an unfortunate set back as he will be difficult to replace, but one the team seems destined to make.

Where did you dig all these assumptions up from the National Enquirer? You have a lot of assumptions in this post that you seem to be passing off as truths.

Re: Haynesworth might learn a few things about Shanahan from Plummer
Where there's smoke, there's fire. I can't remember where I read it, but I have read that Haynesworth is not a 'big city' guy. I also work with someone who knows the Haynesworth family, and grew up with his Albert's uncle. He said that Albert loved the University of Tennessee; the area, the people. He enjoyed playing for the Titans, and that Albert grew up a shy, introverted kid, but very temperamental. And that the criticism he received here really bothered him. He didn't say anything about Albert wanting to be traded or averse to the 3-4. Personally I think he would be fine with a trade, and he doesn't want to play in a 3-4.
It seems obvious to me that he came here for the money first and foremost. I have felt that he never seemed to really fit in here. He has made statements about the 3-4, his refusal to attend OTAs and possibly not attending voluntary camp just sends a very negative message as far as I am concerned. I do not see any way this gets resolved except for a trade. Of course I can't get in Shanahan's head, but I believe he will get whatever he can for Haynesworth and move on. Too much smoke in the air for it all to be misrepresentation. Last edited by jdc65; 04-12-2010 at 07:19 PM. |

Re: Haynesworth might learn a few things about Shanahan from Plummer
Interesting article on Haynesworth, sounds like a good guy and someone with long term, broad ranging plans for the future.
I just wonder about his commitment to football at this point with all that money, and all the other stuff he has going on. |
