He became the highest paid defensive player in history and then wants to jump ship because things are different. What a bitch.

I agree Malcolm, but today's player is all about the $$$$$$$$. You can't pay a man that kind of money guaranteed with hardly any incentives to kick ass and expect optimal performance, much less a hard work ethic.

Agreed, which I'm more pissed at the team for getting him, paying him this much, and not trading him before the draft. Now, we'd be lucky if we get a 3rd rounder for him.

Haslett's defense better be lights out this season, otherwise being a Redskins fan is going to suck big time (unless somehow we can become like those offensive juggernauts)
