Fat Al says he never wanted to leave the Titans and that Shanny lied to him about the scheme.... (blah blah blah)
Does anyone know how much total $$ Fat Albert got from the Skins....? We know it wasn't the whole $100mil
The Skins won't make the same mistake again (at least we hope not)
“I think honestly the difference between me and him is, like, I didn’t want to leave the Titans,” Haynesworth said Wednedsay on ‘The Greg Pogue and Big Joe Show’ in Nashville. “I wanted to stay because I was very close with [Titans defensive line coach Jim Washburn] and it was just fun. To play for him and to have the guys that I played with. The Titans really, upper management, really just forced the hand of me moving. I think with Suh, I don’t think he really wants to stay, and I don’t think the Lions really want to keep him either.”
Haynesworth played two seasons with the Redskins and had short stints with the Patriots and Bucs in 2011. He said he lost his love for the game during his time in Washington.
“Well, I mean, it wasn’t fun,” Haynesworth said Wednesday. “To be honest, after like a year or so of doing that, I mean, it really just got old. It was not, not fun.[color=#FFBF00] At Washington, it took my love away from the game. When I was with the Titans, playing for [Washburn], we loved the game.[/color] We loved, as a D-line, to go out and just destroy an offense. We didn’t win all the time or whatever, but just to know that we really caused problems for other offenses and that we played extremely hard… And then, when I went to Washington, it almost became like politics. Almost. It wasn’t 100 percent about football. It was like maybe 50 percent about football, and then 50 percent about just getting the name out there. Like, how many times could you mention ‘Washington Redskins’? It was just so different.”
