i wonder how long it will be before Al Sharpton enters into the picture......

Ah.... the gift that keeps on giving. :rocker:

 

[Nikolai]

True, slaves don't get paid $100M to sit around and ***** all day.

 

[Frezo]

He sounds a complete idiot.

[BennyBledsoe]

I'd just cut the fat POS.

 

[Disco Volante]

The only ones dumber than Haynesworth in this situation are the Redskins for ever signing him.

 

[Lansdowne]

F*ck him. He's the same scum bag that did this while playing for those dirty Titans. Seems like people have already forgotten.

 

[BradyFTW!]

He's really not helping the case for guaranteed contracts, that's for sure.

 

[Patriot Missile]

Got to be one of the biggest douches in sports ever.

Sports.. how about the world?

Wow, I never seen that before. I can't believe I wanted the pats to sign this douche. He should've been kicked out of the league forever for doing that. That's ridiculous.

Gene Upshaw is rolling in his grave right now

What a jackass,he should be traded to the Jets

He would have a lot of free reign there. Could probably pull down his pants and take a dump on the field at the 50 with the owner, coaches and fans watching and they'd probably cheer him on with a jets jets jets chant.

I can't see how a coach with as much smarts and knowledge of the game like Coach Shanahan can take this much longer.

Belichick who IMO is just a step ahead of Shanahan as a HC would have had his ass on the waiver wire just like AD

The Redskins have an exciting new winning coach,proven winner QB in McNabb but have a wart they need to get rid of in AH and they could contend in the east division but to get there they need to rid the cancer....a 100 million dollar cancer

The coach and owner are helpless. They are desperate for someone to offer him something-anything for him. An offer like we will take on 15% of his contract and you eat the rest might do the trick. If they do cut him outright I can't wait to see the comments coming out of both sides of camp.

The only good thing is he is tax deductible for snyder and not much else

I feel for Snyder,for once he kept his spending to a minimum in the offseason only to have to put up with trash that he signed a year ago

I kept moving my mouse pointer to quote ... but then I read the next post and wanted to quote that one ... and the next one ... so now I will say>>>

:yeahthat: to all the posts ahead of this one ... i love them all.

cutting him would mean giving him what he wants. they want to slot him under 'conduct detrimental to the team' category and get back some of the money i think

I don't feel for him at all, he dug his own grave. And for once a player has a leverage versus the team. The only reason he is saying all this garbage is so that the team is forced to cut him. Then he gets his guaranteed money plus he can sign with whatever team he wants. And as bis of an ass as he is being, he is not entirely at fault for this whole situation. He signed there under the presumption that he was going to be used in a certain way, and one year later that all changes. If I signed a contract with a company to do job X and then a couple months later they told me I had to do job Y (which I hated) I'd be pretty irate. Money doesn't make everything better if you hate your job.

That doesn't happen in football.

And, AFAIK, it can't happen in a year that has a salary cap.
