We’ve all been to that job interview, where you really want the job, so you lie to get it. You tell them you’re going to do things that you know you have no intentions of doing. It usually sounds like this;
“Will you work nights and weekends?”
“Of course I will.”
“How about long shifts and holidays?”
“That’s fine with me, I don’t like seeing my family anyways.”
OK, maybe a little exaggerated. But then after you get the job, you don’t do any of what you promised. Well, that’s what the Redskins have done to Albert Haynesworth; at least, that’s his side of the story.
Haynesworth told NFL Network’s Jason La Confora (a poor man’s Adam Schefter), that when he was signed to the Redskins, he was promised he was going to have the opportunity to attack the quarterback. The Redskins even considered trying to bring in Haynesworth’s old defensive line coach in to aid in that.
But now things have changed. Now, in the 3-4 scheme, Haynesworth will be asked to take on blockers rather than attacking. He’s going to be asked to fill holes rather than pass rushing. With the changed in schemes, Haynesworth is quoted as feeling “deceived”.
News Flash Haynesworth: You’re getting paid $100 million to do this job.
For all those of you reading this (yes, my four readers lol), take your yearly salary, multiply it until you hit the age of 65….now look how far away your life’s income is from Haynesworth’s salary.
So for $100 million, I’ll take on blockers, I’ll fill holes, and I’ll wash the dishes and empty the trash.
Grow up Haynesworth. Things in life change, and for $100 million, you shouldn’t complain.
