Cooley: Haynesworth drama is over....not really. [nfl.com]

Well, I think for Albert to finally put this to bed, he has to show up and play through the preseason," said Cooley. "He’s got to do his best to stay healthy and continue to play hard. He’s out there working hard right now. He’ll fit right in with the players. But for the story to end, he has to come out and perform a little bit."

Skip Bayless is the shit. he’s playing a character in his writing and on TV, and it’s supposed to grate on people. i for one, love the art of crowd manipulation, so i appreciate that Skip has his detractors, but, believe it or not, he’s more right about more stuf than damn near anybody else in his position.

It should be within driving distance

of Charlottesville. Maybe you get a discount if you wear the jersey…?

I really wish the coaching staff hadn't jacked Jarmon around as much as they did with

The poor guy was coming off a pretty significant knee injury and they’ve asked him to lose weight to play linebacker( which made some sense), and then asked them to gain it back to play defensive end-this makes no sense as were already heavy at defensive end and somewhat light at linebacker, and why would you want to put extra weight on an already questionable knee?

The world looks mighty different when you're peeking out your belly button

I like him better at DE

but I agree that making him yo-yo his weight and playing style coming off a major injury is not the way to go

Typical knee-jerk reaction

and quite appropriate considering what a knee-jerk to the testicles Vinny is/was.

Whatever goes wrong in my life

I always blame Vinny. It’s only fair…

I'd love to see a line graph

of all the newborn babies given the first name “Vinny” from 2003 to today in the DC area. I bet the line would look like Enron’s stock.

I'm sure you are right

unless the parents are employing the “Boy Named Sue” strategy for offspring success.

You can lack visible symptoms,

but still pass the Vinny to others. Always use protection when diagnosed with Vinny.

Jarmon may be struggling but he is coachable.

He may have been a #2 pick if he had been able to stay a Kentucky. In that scenario he would not now be on the Skins’ roster.

It does take as much as two years to recover from an ACL surgery and for him it has only been 8 months.
One thing you shouldn’t do with him is to cut him. He might need to get placed on injured reserve if he is still having problems with the knee in September.

by Jefferson1935 on Aug 12, 2010 7:06 PM EDT reply actions  

I understand

That Shanahan doesn’t have an ounce of loyalty to any of the players that were here before he was, but I just hope he doesn’t become too impatient, or too “trigger happy” so to speak with cutting players. I’d dread for one of our cut players to end up playing well for another team…

by bigrm18 on Aug 12, 2010 10:32 PM EDT up reply actions  

Jarmon was below Holiday of the DE depth chart.

Holiday was born in 1975. He was a 1st round draft pick, but he is up there in age. Jarmon is only 22 and has a lot of potential.

by Jefferson1935 on Aug 12, 2010 10:48 PM EDT up reply actions  

Jarmon

Wow. That’s really disappointing. Better to put him on IR than cut him – he can be great.

good point.
