I think most Skins fans would agree Cooleys days in Washington are probably over. So why not go off on Tony Romo, Albert Haynesworth or anyone else that you can. Especially when his arguments are totally accurate. Its not like he is Jerry Rice who makes an opinion with no real basis except “trust me, im Jerry Rice, i know” type demeanor.

Cooley should challenge Haynesworth to a cage match like he wanted with Romo.

I remember when he stomped on that guys head. I give him 2 years before he’s in prison.

It’s perfectly normal to not like or even hate what you do for a living. It it not normal to stomp on people’s heads while they are lying on the ground defenseless or grope waitresses. I may not know much, but I know a scumbag when I see one.

So spare me the they-made-him-do-it defense. He is a con artist of the highest order. Over-under: 2 years after he’s out of football (soon) and convicted of some idiotic crime.

I have a relative who was a first round bust as a LT. He did play over a decade as an average G. I also have a friend who was a first round bust as a RB who played over a decade as a back-up. They both HATED football. This is probably more common than people realize.

You don’t need to love your job in order to get paid millions to do it. See Curtis Martin.

Boy Cooley sure does run his mouth a lot for a guy who spends most of his time on IR. Is it just me that thinks this?

Do trash people like collecting trash? I would think not, yet they show up every week, unlike Haynesworthless.

Cooley Do you love football or talking on the radio while injured? Seriously though its November we are about to play thanksgiving football why are we talking about Albert, who is sitting on the Bucs roster out of playoff contention, and why are we listening to Cooley who is on the sidelines while the Redskins lose a heart breaker to the Cowboys? I am Cooley fan, I want him to prove that he can still play but who cares on this.

Many pro athletes hate or dislike the sport they play for millions of dollars each year,just look at your NBA players right now,they average $5.1 million a players per season yet they now refuse to play,losing 50 to 200 grand a game,if they loved basketball they would just sign the contract and not worry that the owners make 1 or 2 % more money than they do a year,I bet if you took a poll the lower and middle ranked NBA players would sign a deal but the top of the NBA who make the most money think only about themselves,if they loved the game that wouldnt happen and we would have games tonight.

This is ironic coming from Chris Cooley, a man who has used football as a means to fame and never saw a camera he didn’t love.

Maybe Haynesworth didn’t like seeing Chris cooley practice in his Lil shorts, while he was in Washington!!!

Chris Cooley & LaVarr Arrington…..underrated, focused, out-played their contracts and good locker room guys. The gold standard for Redskins players under the Synder regime.

bwahahaha

This is just stupid “he’s big so naturally he was made to play” lol I’m calling BS on that right now. I know plenty “big” people who don’t play football and make millions. So sell that garbage to someone else.

One of the Pats beat writers made a similar observation awhile back. She said football loves Haynesworth more than Haynesworth loves football. What’s shocking to me is that he fooled BB. BB’s far from perfect but he is usually pretty good at figuring out who loves football and it’s one of his top requirements. So AH is pretty shrewd as well.

it’s also gotta suck for haynesworth to have to carry a 350 pound body around everywhere you go and you’re always running and pounding… but, the guy did take the 100 million. so buddy, suck it up and play with all your heart, because someone paid a very steep price to get your maximum effort on every play, every practice, every film. it’s called work honor.

Who cares what Cooley has to say? He is on IR. Aren’t those guys supposed to be invisible?

Great!

Now how does Cooley feel about his team getting beat twice by Tony Romo?

Scoreboard, Chris.

Luckily for Haynesworth and his delicate sensibilities he won’t have football to mope over next year. The free ride is over and absolutely no one is going to spend money on this loser ever again.

Maybe he just hates football under Shanahan…I am sure many Skins fans likewise hate football under Shanahan even as they hate Haynesworth.

Yeah, things worked out for Haynesworth so much better in New England.

By the way, I estimate the over-under on when Haynesworth is out of football and announces he is broke is three years.

Oddly enough, he’s been pretty decent here in Tampa so far, and most surprisingly is showing a lot of effort. It might just be that he is completely unwilling to adapt to any system that doesn’t fit him, which is certainly a pathetic stand to take but might be the truth nonetheless.

There is a difference between the man who says “x is my job, not who I am” and the man who says “I am x.” I teach; I’m a teacher. I build houses; I’m a house builder. I play football; I’m a football player.

I’m not a Skins fan or even a Cooley fan, but that guy tells it like it is. And for all the ruckus he’s caused in the media recently, I have to say I agree with him most of the time.
