BUT, if he keeps on with this not trying stuff....then they should cut his ass

If he has so little heart or loyalty that he won't do this thing.....GET THE F... RID OF HIM
BTW, I don't anybody believes that he IS in "football" shape if he can run a couple of shuttles. I think the point is, if he CANNOT, that he is not even close and no point in going further?

Like I said, I wish people would just stop complaining about this and discuss other things that are more relevant and important, rather than coming up with conspiracy theories and crap.

Are you sure you replied to the right post?

I got that statement right from Shanahan's mouth (CSN Sportsnite interview specifically). What exactly did I make up? Shanny said he may let him practice without passing the test. It's no conspiracy theory.

I have no huge problem with AH, far less than others on here. I want him to get his act together and play...it's better for the team.

Just look at the post before this one.

By the way, I've never been a fan of the term "football shape." It reminds me of Bobby Knight trying to understand "game face." That said, *anyone* in the league should be able to do this IMO. If you can't run 300 yards, then you can't play an entire game of football IMO.

When did running at football practice become taboo?

Great post

Ndamukong Suh passes 'Haynesworth Test' | freep.com | Detroit Free Press

Before he could take the field, he first completed what previously was considered a mundane conditioning drill until Redskins coach Mike Shanahan and defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth butted heads this week. Even Suh referred to it as "the Haynesworth Test."

It required running 25-yard sprints six times. Suh, below, passed, running it in 65 seconds one time and 67 seconds the other.

Well.........he has his place in history. Provocateur of the vaunted Haynesworth Test..........

Redskins Insider - Albert Haynesworth does not take test because of sore knee

Could a simple apology get AH back on the field?

los panda · 08-05-2010, 12:01 PM

i wonder what his true weight is right now compared to his true playing weight last season

MTK · 08-05-2010, 12:09 PM

He's around 320 vs. 350 last year

los panda · 08-05-2010, 12:22 PM

that's what the redskins are saying? 320?

MTK · 08-05-2010, 12:25 PM

Not sure if the team has said anything official, since he wasn't here in the offseason when they do the weigh ins for the season. But he was 350 at this time last year, he claims to have lost about 30 lbs, and he passes the eyeball test for someone in the 320 range.

los panda · 08-05-2010, 12:45 PM

i'm not very good at the guess my weight game. i suppose i could buy 320. i hope he didn't lose much power along with that weight.

Coach Has, I swear the buffet was THIS BIG!!! I could run back and forth to that mofo in 70 seconds!!

Albert, NO! I know a prime rib sandwich made with waffles sounds delicious but we've got to finish practice with trashcans!

Where did I put my $21 million check? Is it here? Nope. Is it here? Nope. That's right, I wiped my ass with it and left it on Shanny's desk.

Sorry rookie, got nothing for ya.

I for one think AH is gonna kill it this year. If he can just get past this god forsaken test.
