Haynesworth is Behaving Selfishly

I guess his side of the story might be "I'm a better player for not going". A lot of fans would call bs on that, I suppose. Saying "he should have been there" is too broad for my tastes. Maybe the best argument against Haynesworth's actions is that his head coach thought he should be there.

I guess I can see the selfishness in trying to make yourself the best player you can be (at the expense of...well, something), but I don't know. This is pretty ridiculous that the fans and media are more worked up about this than the Redskins are.

Indeed.. but what head coach wouldn't say that?

As far as worst argument.. DS is disappointed. Non-story considering everyone wanted him not to have personnel input. Sure he signs the checks but whatever.

As far as the comparisons to players holding out for contracts in other posts, that's not what's going on obviously in this case, nor does it appear that AH will actually be holding out.
