Hear is a portion of the story written in the Post:

Sopping wet in his gray nylon long-sleeve shirt, he finally acknowledged the crowd shouting his name behind the ropes.
"We love you, Albert!" someone yelled. He raised his hand in a mock wave just in time to hear the retort. "We'd love you more if you lose 10 more pounds."

I love the bold part!

A mixed reaction I didn't expect, but I did share a quick moment with a player I won't name about the feeling of offseason workouts going foreward. Is this type participation going to be expected to continue in the future, or is/was it because the majority of the guys wanted to leave a good impression. His response was he hadn't given it much thought, but if it is expected to continue he thinks there could be more Haynesworth's in the future minus the dollars.

Well, we'll see. I mean I love that all the players were working out at the park together...but I have never minded when players wanted to train on their own or workout elsewhere. The thing that bothered me about Haynesworth was just the mini camp that was required. If guys want to work out elsewhere next year, I wouldnt have an issue with it... of course I'm sure if we win a ton of games, guys will buy into it. If we go 6-10, then they might not.

I believe it was actually said if he'd run 10 more laps, at least that's what was reported by several guys yesterday

From where I was standing I could hear the "We love you" part but little else. I know attention gazed towards the comments.
