Haynesworth Appreciation Thread

[Bigreds77]

I wonder if Zorn will go back to Seattle or maybe he goes to the Browns to help out Quinn.

Shanahan and Gruden both have the common sense to know talent when they see it, and how to utilize it as well. Haynesworths' character display here has been due mainly to the fact he's a disgruntled player trying to find his place on a defense that does not play to his strengths.

With Holmgren there, I could see that.

That's not what I asked ,so becuase he's a "disgrntled player" that makes it ok?

If I am reading correctly, Haynesworth recognizes that he was late and should be punished, so that part is not a problem. However, Haynesworth seems to be complaining about unequal punishments - that is, other tardy players get let off of the hook. If what he says is true, who can blame him for complaining about unequal treatment?

Perhaps Haynesworth is justified and perhaps that problematic artifact of team culture will change with the new regime.

Let's be honest here. He got sent home for running his mouth to the media. One thing I can't stand is guys crying to the media. If AH is frustrated about the defense then he should go to the coaches....oh yeah he did. And Blache said, "get out of my face and go sit down." lol. Let's see if gravy boy can man up and have a good game tonight. Funny how the defense has had some of it's best games when he's not on the field.

Under no circumstances should a player start piping up like this. Regardless of whether Zorn leaves or not I find it deeply troubling that one of our highest-paid players is conducting himself like a non-professional. Then again, make no mistake that there is generally a negative relationship between a player's salary and the way they conduct themselves.
