    I am sure that Albert Haynesworth dropping 32 lbs. is good for him healthwise and probably good for the Redskins as well.Albert is a tremendous competitor, that,s why the Washington Redskins aquired him with a record setting contract.Haynesworthes skill and training is not the problem. It,s the way things are getting done and the continued broken relationship between him and the Redskins.Instead of getting in shape with the team he is doing it on his own with his personal trainer-Tripp Smith.O.K we get it , you pissed off that Mike Shannahan and company want to implement the 3-4 scheme and you don,t like it because-does,nt fit you etc.... etc... but I personally think that first of all your an employee of the Washington Redskins organization and you need to get with the program.Secondly,if your as good as everyone thought you were coming out of  the Titans- , Everybody will recognize your in a new scheme but you still got to play up to your ability and just let the pieces fall where they may.Forget about the next contract your already PAID.But in keeping with this disconnect with your team-not reporting your shape to the team but having your personal trainer, Tripp Smith , leak it to Fredericksburg.Com: you are widening the gap between you and the Team(teammates,coaching,the fans).Your widening the gap and that,s not good for you or the Washington Redskins.

As lazy as Albert Haynsworth has been in the past I bet he balooned up to about 382 lbs. Losing 32 lbs probably just gets him back to 350 lbs.

Everyone seems to forget how lazy and ineffective Haynsworth was at the beginning of his career. He never did anything until he got the Franchise tag and thought he was playing for a contract. Then he got the Franchise tag again and he actually had to try hard for another year to get a big contract.

Now he has the big contract and he will never perform again like those two years he got the Franchise tag.

What a waste of money for the Redskins.

    Albert Haynesworth and the Redskins continue not to be on the same page.I,m sure Haynesworth will be in his best shape possible but in the ongoing Saga between him and his team he has decided to do it on his own keeping with the trend that the man is self-centered as depicted by the mandatory mini-camp scenario.Instead of dealing with his team ,Alberts personal trainer leaked the news through a third-party,Fredericksburg.com:Is it me or is Albert Haynesworth me against the world stance;Isolating him from his coaches,teammates and etc..Not good for him and the Washington Redskins no matter what shape he,s in.My personal thought is he is an employee of the Redskins and he needs to get with the program and learn the 3-4 scheme they are going to implement.

Albert has to think of his health first. Like the previous poster said your heart cannot maintain that weight no matter how much aerobics you do to keep your heart healthy. 
Also get off his back, he is not a 3-4 NT. Playing that position is going to hurt his chances at getting another contract if he plays this one out. 3-4 NT do not get stats and team owners and GMs use stats as their main bargaining point in contractual conversations.
In this particular instance Haynesworth is right, Shanahan is wrong. (concerning playing the 3-4). Also Haynesworth deferred that balloon payment that Shanahan keeps crying about, it should have been paid with his signing bonus but the Redskins needed some help with the cap.
The Redskins are the bad guys in this Haynesworth saga, not Albert.

I understand you donr want him to be to slim and the at the rate he was going he will be dead by the age of 45!   You cannot live life at 400lbs!!!!!  ur heart cannot take it
