Seven Year 100 million dollar contract! Good grief. Someone isn't worried about the recession.
This contract could also pay up to $ 115 million if he meets all his incentives, but from what I have pointed out I highly doubt he meets the criteria.
Either way I am sure it doesn't bother him too bad.
$15 million is like that change in your jeans that just gets eaten up by the washing machine to this guy at the present moment.
It obviously should go without saying that this deal is one of the largest ever in the history of the NFL.
My question is why?
Tennessee never came close to offering what several teams were throwing at him.
Washington fans, does it not concern you that the team Albert has played for since 2002 didn't seem to think he was worth all that cash?
Here's a few reasons I have come up with:
They feared for the safety of the rest of their players.
They got tired of all his Chuck Norris imitations.
They got tired of chaining up all foreign objects so that he couldn't wield them at anyone.
They were losing too much money paying off scared motorists and pedestrians.
They couldn't design strong enough helmets to defend against his possessed cleats.
He was a food bandit..."You going to eat that cornbread?"
And the list could go on.
On a serious note though, Tennessee learned from their salary cap mistake from the past when they held on to Steve McNair for a few years too many. They had to let go of valuable players just to pay others that were past their prime.
Now I am not saying Haynesworth is past his prime age wise, but with all his incidents and injuries, who really knows when that is?
Tennessee has a solid defense, a very solid one at that. They proved that game in and game out when Haynesworth was defending that water cooler.
So I say, good riddance Albert Haynesworth.
Tennessee will be just fine without the overly paid Nascar wannabe ultimate fighter.
Hope you get your money's worth Washington...
