D’oh (2009 edition)
Dashing whatever hopes existed that Washington was pursuing a much needed long term strategy, 3 reports have now been published saying that the Redskins will sign DT Albert Haynesworth for megabucks at the start of free agency.
It's Washington, it's the offseason...
Is this
a) predictable
b) depressing
c) depressingly predictable
d) the missing piece of the puzzle?
Haynesworth has been amazing this year, but the permanent sod’s law that operates around the Redskins means that he’s about to become an idle former standout, with $30m in his pocket - i.e. the new Shaun Alexander. Who, you’ll recall, the Redskins signed last year and who made a massive difference with his 11 yards on 5 carries.
How do you get an owner fired?
Next week: Redskins trade all draft picks from now until 2015 in order to acquire Chris Henry, Brett Favre and Deion Sanders (again)….
