Having said that, as of right now they are not required by the NFL to be at their facilities. It's not called "Voluntary" work outs for nothing. Lets move on from this story. AH shows up fat and slow the team will have issues, he shows up in decent shape and only has to learn the scheme, then I'm ok with it.

The first paragraph comes off as a jealously laced diatribe. The clubs agreed to those rules. Don't like it, "tough", I'm sorry to say there's really nothing you can do short of starting some sort of national NFL boycott. Good luck.
Where has it ever been said that his feathers have been ruffled? It seems to me that the only ruffled feathers are found on all these drama queen fans who are out for blood.
He is fulfilling his commitments and he has said from the beginning that all he wants to be is the best. If him training with his personal trainer gets him there, then Godspeed, Big Al.
