But thus far he is handling himself well.

Stubblefield signed a big contract with the Redskins right after he won NFL Defensive MVP, something Haynesworth hasn't done, so I don't think you can really say Stub was "nowhere close to player AH is." Stubb and AH both have the distinction of being the best DTs in football at the time they signed on the dotted line with the Skins.

The comparisons/speculation are valid. Both are dominant defensive tackles who performed at their highest level in a contract year.

All that said, I have a feeling Haynesworth will live up to the hype and be a monster for us.
Agreed GMScud. But What I was pointing out is that AH is aware of his responsibility to the team and his commitment to further his career and has publicly stated the same. Stubb never did that. Now unless AH has no self pride/dignity and has lost his desire to play football I think he will be that dominate force we have been waiting for.

Coming to Washington, Stubblefield had nothing to compare himself too. Neither did he amount to anything after leaving us. (probably because he quit the Roids) IMO

AH on the other hand is more like Fletcher in my opinion. Someone that enjoys playing the game and plays the game hard. And as Fletcher keeps his fire burning to make a ProBowl. I believe AH will do the same chasing the HOF.

All speculation at this point? Apsolutely. But I would compare AH more to Fletcher than Stubblefield. IMO (I better be right)
