WP: Haynesworth will skip minicamp, wants trade

[SkinzWin]

Let's trade him to the worst UFL or Canadian league team there is....

[johno]

if he wants to sulk and not attend camp, bench him. shanny has to show he wont be pushed around.

[celts32]

If they can't get fair value then they should just let his fat arse sit out the season. The hell with him...

[Hog1]

Last thing we need is another locker room pariah....see ya' Big Ass.
AND, I am confident that as far as Shanny and Bruce are concerned.....this boat sailed some time ago. It comes as no surprise to them, and I'm good with that. Personally I am of the JOE philosophy. You never regret filling your locker room with good character guys, and BA couldn't cut it in that department........
I have NO patience left for the 50 million dollar man!

[14WOODS]

Let Haynesworth rot at the end of the bench.

I would never trade him, bench him until his contract expires.

There should be a section at Fed-Ex dedicated to booing and belittling Haynesworth where the end of the bench is.

So what can we get for Fat Albert now? What teams would be interested? Will we have to cut him?

[SFREDSKIN]

I was critical of the FO when he was signed, now what I would do is don't trade him as he likes. What I would do is if he wants to be traded then he'll have to give back most of that money (like Arrington) or sue his ass (Al Davis style). How could a player who doesn't want to play be paid all that money, there has to be some loop hole or this is going to become a trend.

He doesn't deserve to continue wearing the jersey with all of his nonsense so what's the maximum amount the Redskins can fine him for each day he misses mandatory days that he sits out of camp?

Nobody to blame but Snyder (or whoever structured the deal) for giving him so much guaranteed money up front.

Redskins teammates begin to tee off on Haynesworth | ProFootballTalk.com

For now, the Redskins can fine him roughly $10,000 for skipping the minicamp. If he stays out when training camp rolls around, the number increases to more than $16,000 per day.

What about during the season? Is it a game check?

If this is not resolved, at least the team can fine AH and try to get some of their money back. Otherwise, even if his fat ass sits on a bench, that does nothing positive for the team.

Pull off a "great trade" b/c the player demands it?? I call BS. AH cost us the Skins nothing but Snyder's money (Cry me a river on that one). AH is not going to make or break this season. Clearly Shanallen have been planning for this contingency (How many DT's did we sign?).

Shanahan is telling the rest of the team - "I decide, nobody else - so you better get on board." Ultimately, that is a vast improvement over past years. If I am Shanny, the only way I trade AH is if we get a stone cold stellar offer otherwise it looks like I am caving. Not gonna happen (stellar offer or Shanny caving).

You would rather players be allowed to bitch there way out of playing how the coach's wants them too? (Santana: "I am the number one WR or I don't play"; CP: "Either I am a three down back or trade me"; Los: "I am the starting CB or trade me", etc. etc. etc.).

Sorry, whether it's where, how or when they play or if they are even part of the team, coach's dictate to the players. Not vice versa.
