"The bottom line is that, during negotiations, the Redskins made promises to Haynesworth that they are not keeping. It's hard to blame the team when a guy who is making a hundred million a year is skipping training camp, but if the Redskins made verbal promises to Albert and they're not keeping those promises, well then they have to sleep in the bed they made."

This makes zero sense to me. You get paid to play, not to bitch about what a team is doing schematically. If I go into a position and then a new manager comes in and switches things around, i have to deal with it. If I said I didn't like the way they are doing things, so I am not coming to work do you think I would still be employed? Hell no. The guy was just paid $32 million for 1 season, and basically renegged on his deal about taking the $20million check. He knew when he took that check that he was going to be on the hook for playing in what ever scheme they threw out there. I hope Shanny and Allen stand up to his fat ass and say "hey, you want to stay home, that is ok we'll fine you... and if you show up and cause problems then we'll suspend you with no pay." Its your call. Sure he can show up and play half ass and get benched, but who is that hurting more, him or the Redskins...HIM.. He wont be able to get moved or traded if he plays horrible. I really hope this jackass gives the $20 million back, then we can take what ever for him and get rid of him. If not, then I would just put his fatass on the bench for spite.
