Be there for him, but provide the proper discapline to be the best, no compramizes.

Might not have been all ego(not passing the test). Might have been mostly the knee. If ego was still a factor AH would have been a no show, etc, or caused more problems ala TO. Him not showing up to OTA's might have been due to the knee and nothing more, but he didn't want to advertise it. I don't see how AH could not have passed that test if he was OK. I am glad he passed, but he might be on the early cusp of having some chronic knee problems this season. I just hope he maybe strained the ligaments while shedding those 35lbs and can heal properly before Dallas. I am not concerned about his ego. Most guys in the NFL have overinflated egos, along with their overinflated salaries. You have a $100 million investment in the guy, you want a return on that investment. That is the bottom line. As for the media? They don't give a damn either, it is controversy that gets ratings/sells copy that they are after.
