Re: More Haynesworth Drama? Big Al Sounds Off After Ravens Game

I think the whole AH drama is a complete fiction. He and Coach Shanahan are tight, and they're playing the media to cultivate the misimpression that there's disharmony at Redskins Park whereas the truth is that everyone is on the same page. But they want their opponents to perceive them as divided and weak, so that we can rip off 16 wins in a row.

Sorry -- I just woke up. What's the topic?

Fletcher and Daniels called AH out during his absence from OTAs, so I don't think they would shy away from calling him out again. As a team leader, I don't think Fletcher would pull something out of his ass or something like it.

OTAs and 2weeks before the season starts are two different things.Fletcher is a leader...a good one his job once the season starts is to unite not to disrupt.Fletcher is trying to defuse what big Al keeps igniting.

From a source inside the locker room it is real, and NOONE likes AH at the moment.

Yeah but you're basically saying that Fletcher is lying. This is more me believing Fletcher than making any type of defense for Haynesworth. AH has no credibility with anyone right now, but if Fletcher is saying that he had a good talk with AH and that he's doing what he's supposed to now, then I believe Fletcher. Otherwise, Fletcher is making stuff up (as you seem to imply).

I agree that Fletch likely would not just make things up.

I also think that it is unlikely that everything is resolved with AH. Given that AH clammed up right after talking to Fletch, I think that the "he's on board" part that Fletch mentioned means, "He's on board with keeping his crap in-house."

I don't think it's over. Not by a long shot. I'm sorry but I've played the fool before. Thinking that Zorn would be a good coach, eventually buying into the three pass catchers in the second round, thinking Vinny would actually acquire quality offensive lineman but I've been let down on all counts.

This will blow up again, it's just a question of when. If I'm wrong then awesome, but I thought this was over after the conditioning test was completed and look what happened.

Fletcher and Shanahan are both profesional if that means they give misiformation out for the sake of team unity then so be it,the public really doesn't have the right to know everything that is going on behind closed doors .Do you really think that at this point in a season Fletcher would come out and bash a teammate ? Seems you don't understand the difference in being a leader and lying.(...oh sorry.....spinning)

I think Fletcher did put a good spin on it, but if it were absolute balderdash like you seem to think, then he would lose credibility in the locker room.

If things were as terrible as you seem to imply, then all Fletcher has to do is not say anything about it. He may have put a spin to it, but it's not like he made the whole thing up period.

Now, are things all fine and peachy, probably not...but what Fletcher said is a step in a positive direction.

LOL.....

1) Yes,yes it's just me and me alone ,I am the only one saying negative things.:yeahright
2)Please find the post where I say any of this made up ?

3) ...going back to my original question....do you really think Fletcher ,Shanahan or any member of the Redskins will openly bash another teammate ?
4)All I have done and will do is mention that London Fletcher is a Pro and a Gentleman and if you expect that he would bash a fellow teammate .....you are wrong .So really what did you think he would say ?
