Just to make it a little easier to compare:

2009 Al is on the left, 2010 Al is on the right
And honestly I don't think it makes a big difference. Losing 30+ pounds probably doesn't make much of a difference when you're like 6'6 and over 300 pounds.
You're talking like 8% change.. so yeah, it makes a diff
though I doubt it's 30lb from his playing weight last year

Kind of a sloppy practice overall, bad weather likely the main culprit.
Looks like the players really respect Galloway
(again, just stuff I'm being told from folks down there)
Yeah! Today's practice was a little different from what you normally see on opening day. Practice was basically light (no pads) a lot of individual work and some standing around.
It was not the smoothest practice we're going to see but for the most part the players looked in great shape and eager. Galloway still has the speed, it was the first time I've seen him up close and he does get the respect from the defense.
Much of the highly anticipated drama was amped down, I got the feeling the guys just want to get on with football. My next effort will be geared towards a day in pads.

After looking more closely at the two pics I think his shoulders look a little more defined and his head doesn't look as big, as well as a slight difference between the arms. Either way I don't feel like he lost enough to not play DT.
When you lose head fat, that's when you KNOW he's serious. :D

Did anyone see that Roger Goodell was a Redskins fan after the Colts moved from Baltimore? Of course he claimed that he now roots for all 32 teams but I think we all know where his true loyalty lies ;)

Yeah that's come up in a couple of interviews.

If Goodel was a real fan you think he would throw us a couple of extra draft picks. :)
Anyway good to hear Galloway still has his speed, and I gues a light practice for day one is good.
So to the guys at camp today was AH there hanging around the guys? Was he participating at all? Or did he have his famous grimmace on his face the whole time?
How about DM was he smiling and joking around?

Good info in reading back a couple of pages.
Smoot were you there or just getting info from sources on the team?
Good stuff though.
And I love the fact that Atwater and Davis were there as well. The atmosphere seems to be totaly different there this year and some of the things going on are awesome to hear. Whether we have a good or mediocre year there are some real changes going on. This will be a good team in the coming years.
So glad we are away from down time and on to the real meat of this thing.
HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!

Haynesworth's putting in some extra work tonight from what I hear, working out, talking with coaches, chatting with staff, watching some film.

BTW thanks for posting the shots of AH guys. Good to see and it definately seems as though he is slimmer. I wouldn't say he is well defined or anything but he has lost some head fat as others have pointed out and his shoulders also seem well defined.

He kind of did. Why do you think we didn't have to give the Titans a pick for tampering ;) Though I will say that even if the Redskins did tamper the fact remains that the Titans were never going to pay Haynesworth.
