In the next collective bargaining agreement there needs to be a DPL (Douche Player List) where teams can place players who refuses to fulfill their contract or perform on the field.

Fck the money, I say do whatever it takes to make his life miserable.

I'm glad a player's finally airing out the dirty laundry. I think the Skins have been [I]too[/I] loyal about keeping things in-house. The organization has lost for too long and the fans are at a point that transparency is needed.

If a player is saying that loafing has been a problem every season, I say good for Shanahan and whatever kind of punishments he's handing out. Talent, scheme changes, luck be damned. I've watched teams like the Lions and Bills this season... and while their records may be worse than ours, they keep many of their games competitive.

We've had talent in the past, schemes that have worked... the one constant? Losing. And it all starts with attitude. 3-4 or 4-3... missed tackling, players dropping passes, guys not going full speed on game day- that's a lack of focus and want.

As long as Danny Snyder's pocket is the only thing suffering from such moves, I'll buy it. If I'm going to flog myself every Sunday watching the Skins lose, if I'm going to receive ridicule from all my friends over the years for being a fan of this team, if I'm going to have my hopes dashed every season at the halfway point... I'd rather go through such masochism if the performers are at least leaving it all out on the field. If professional football players have been able to skate by on less-than optimum behavior, I'll take the frito lays we'd get in return for Fat Al.

[quote=takethecake;766204]I would also say that I'm pleasantly surprised that the majority of posts on this thread [B][I]weren't[/I][/B] roasting shanahan for this situation, which is what I expected to be the case. It's about time we realized that shanahan isn't at fault for inheriting a worthless fat cry-baby and trying to get him to understand that he isn't exempt from the rules.[/quote]

At first that was my thought on the whole thing...but now as the players are starting to speak out, its obvious this whole situation is a lot more than just the OTA's and those two disagreeing on what offseason work is.... I'm just ready for it to be over. Cut Haynesworth and get it over with.

[quote=mlmdub130;766216]i don't think you understood where i was coming from. i understand it takes time to see some results, but my point is that no one in the redskins organization seems to know how they are going to make the changes. i think there have been some moderate improvements but i don't think they really know what direction the team is headed in and that part scares the s outta me. shanahan has the rings so he gets some time and it will obviously take time, it would just be nice to know there was a plan of action they were trying to follow.[/quote]

My fault then, I may have made some assumptions haha. I feel like there is a plan of action, but that there may be a lot of it that isn't concrete, as the NFL is a dynamic animal. They also probably don't feel obligated to share their plan with the public, which I suppose is their prerogative. At least for now, and into the foreseeable future, I'm buying into the "shanahan plan."

Re: ESPN 980's Chris Russell: 75% Chance Skins release Big Al this week
 

Well, Haynesworth just said on the radio that he's not showing up for his meeting with Shanahan tomorrow "I'm still heated over this"

Re: ESPN 980's Chris Russell: 75% Chance Skins release Big Al this week
 

We need to get something for him, even if we becnh his ass the rest of the way. We can get a pick or two for him. THe more picks we have the better.

I would say just use better judgement when picking players. Giving this guy 40 mil was very poor judgement by our front office. They simply didn't do their homework.

Is Daniels being serious? You lose games cause you're not good enough and the last two years have shown that.

Albert Haynesworth disputes 'hung over' report on the radio
By Jason Reid

In a lengthy radio interview, Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth expanded on comments he made earlier Monday night to Redskins Insider, further expressing anger about a Comcast SportsNet report that he was recently "hung over" during practice.

Speaking with 106.7 The Fan's The Kevin & Rock Show, Haynesworth lashed out at "cowards" who have made up lies about him. On television and on its Web site, Comcast reported that Haynesworth was out late Thursday night and appeared "hung over" Friday.

"For these people to make up lies to try to make me look bad is ridiculous," Haynesworth said. "I think they are cowards, and if they have something to say, they should come to my face, not run to the media and try to blast me behind my back."

Since the offseason, Haynesworth and Coach Mike Shanahan have been at odds over Shanahan's handling of the two-time all-pro player. Asked whether someone has it out for him, Haynesworth acknowledged he believes he has detractors within the Redskins' organization.

"There are some kind of haters or something like that in the organization, that they don't like me," he said. "I don't know if it's players or coaches. I don't know who it is. Obviously, there's somebody who doesn't like me, which is fine. But when you go out there and start making up lies, I've got something to say."

Despite being physically sound, Haynesworth, for the fourth time this season, was listed as inactive during Sunday's 31-7 loss to the New York Giants. Shanahan said Haynesworth "was sick" last week and declared inactive because he did not practice well Thursday and sat out Friday.

Although teammates have been critical of Haynesworth for his latest problem with Shanahan, no one has approached him about the situation, he said.

"No. Nobody's said that," Haynesworth said. "Be a man. If you've got something to say to me, then you come and say it to me in my face. Don't go running behind and say things behind my back. We're not little girls or something like that.

"I'm a man. If I have something to say about you, I'll say it to your face. I don't have a problem with that. It should be the same way. Not running behind someone's back and go talking about them and start all the rumors and lies, just because they want to make themselves look good or whatever."

Haynesworth has a salary of $3.6 million. At the completion of this season, Haynesworth will have been paid $35.6 million for two seasons with the team. His $5.4 million salary in 2011 is not guaranteed.

The nine-year veteran said he is committed to the Redskins.

"I wanted to play [against the Giants]," he said. "I come in [to the locker room], my stuff is packed up and they tell me I'm deactivated. ... I'm here to play. Everybody's saying I'm not committed. I'm committed. I'm out here to play.

"I've never had an issue with playing. I always play hard. I play hurt. I'd blow out something before I'd quit playing. I'm still the same player I was when I left Tennessee. And if they could put me on the field and let me prove that I would. Getting fourteen snaps a game is not helping anything."

So your boss suspends you and then says, "I want to talk to you. Meet me Saturday morning". Your response: "Nah, I'll see you Monday, talk to you then, I'll let you know when I ready for you." Boss: "Don't worry, you don't need to come in Monday. You're fired."

Put him on IR if at all possible.

Behavior detrimental to the team/insubordination, would be a good reason to IR his fat ass.
