meccajay Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Well I can tell you guys, Haynesworth's Idol is Reggie White. He see's himself as a tackle period, so he won't play nose in the 3/4. That's a deal breaker for him. Now what? Can't really trade him with that beast of a salary, can't cut him and take the hit cause he's only one year in. And you can't fire or undermine your DC by changing the scheme for 1 player either.. What to do? TROLL . . . ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Grace Posted June 19, 2010 Author Share Posted June 19, 2010 Goodell backs 18 regular-season games NFL and union officials discussed adding two games to the regular season when they met Wednesday for their first negotiating session since February. Teams would still play a total of 20 games under the proposal. The league would go from four in the preseason and 16 in the regular season to two and 18.

MikeT156 Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Injuries are a big part of the professional game. I realize that they will be playing the same amount of games, but with Pre season games the vets sit or stand and watch the rookies at lot. 18 regular season games will bring in more $$$ for the NFL, but it will be interesting to see how many players go down and how many QB changes there will be througout the season.

NoahZark Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Haynesworth is under contract to the Redskins and has been paid more than THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS by the team since signing with them just a little more than a year ago. If the Redskins coaches want him to play punter, he should get his fat ass to practice to work on his punts! Won't play nose tackle?!?! Are you f***ing kidding me?!?! Did I mention the THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS?!?! Unbelievable. This guy is quickly taking the prize for the most selfish professional athlete in DC sports history.

NoahZark Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Players are either trying to secure a big payday or are well fed, er, paid and no longer hungry. This is precisely the problem with the Skins' brass, PD. They keep giving these guys the big paydays but expecting them to play the same way they did when they working their asses off to EARN those big paydays. To some degree, it's human nature to let off the gas a bit after the fat checks are guaranteed, and the Redskins really should have learned that lesson by now. Alas, they just can't seem to figure it out. All that said, per my last post, Haynesworth's refusal to play even after getting paid all that money is truly shameful.

MikeT156 Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Got that Noah, but TO does hold the record for selfish, as well an over-grown big baby. Can't get his way, doesn't get the ball enough times to satisfy his ego? (It would have helped if he was about to CATCH the damn ball when it came his way) Ultimately, Father Time wins the battles that NFL Front Office Administrators don't have the courage to do. Mike T.

NoahZark Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Agree, Mike. It's hard to think of a modern player with a bigger 'tude issue than T.O. You'd think after being run out of four cities (San Fran, Philly, Dallas, and Buffalo) despite his immense talents, something might change, but T.O. seems committed to keeping his "legacy" alive and well.....

Noah Haynes-thief is the latest player to make the case for the NFL trying to reign in player contracts. Along with Russell, Haynes(un)worth is insuring nobody else gets paid that much money without a willingness to play every position and/or leave their corpse on the field.

Jeff Klopmeyer Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I just saw on ESPN that codeine syrup in a drink called 'purple drank' is all the rage down south with the hip hop crowd. And has been for a long time. Houston, in particular, is known for this vice. It's not a matter of just having the codeine without a prescription. It's a widely abused (and street-dealt) drug in certain areas.
