Albert Haynesworth is moving to Washignton D.C. to work for the Redskins, for $100 million. What was it Scooby Doo used to say? OOOUH?!
.
IT'S FOOTBALL! He didn't cure cancer or AIDS.
He tackles MFers for a living, and $100 Million for that is just obscene. And guess what, he thinks he's worth it.
.
In the midst of this, the team who paid that, just laid off 20 workers.and why did they do that?
.
Several of those let go on Wednesday said Chief Operating Officer Mitch Gershman told them the team was shedding about 30 employees because of financial difficulties caused by the economy and a decrease in revenue.
"Mitch said that the revenue from tickets and season tickets was not where it needs to be," said one employee who was let go on Wednesday.
.
Hey, Redskins Front-Office Foreskins, your revenue will CONTINUE to be down, as long as your fans think you're raising ticket, popcorn, program and beer prices, and laying people off to pay $41 million bonuses to MFers who KNOCK DOWN PEOPLE FOR A LIVING!
.
I'm havin' a stroke! Or this really happened, and I'm afraid to find out which one is true.

Scteveo is NOT drooling, It's real

(sarcastic comment)
hey Steve - the weather report sez it's gona snow at your house tomorrow...
I'll be at the beach checking out the tourist women in their bikinis..
You know what else I failed to consider, $100 million isn't what it was worth before the economy tanked either. He should blame Bush.
(clearing my throat in an 'AW BS' manner)
Blue, what worries me is that the local weather doofuses, dufuses, doofai...???... are DISAGREEING with the National Weather Service. They're disagreeing with their own local Action 5, Eye on Weather 11, Big Dog 17 Weather computer models. Yep, all the local guys are saying it's going to go south of us.
When they followed that course in January, it snowed 5 inches officially at the airport, and 7 inches in my backyard.
And yes, I have bread, milk, TP, and beer on hand. I live by the Boy Scout motto. Be Drunk!!
Post some bikini pictures to help keep me warm.
but is your TP reuseable??
As long as people are willing to shell out their hard earned money to watch NFL football the owners will continue paying these kind of outrageous salaries. I would imagine that the paid attendance revenue is quite a bit smaller than what teams earn through licensing and sale of team merchandise, consessions, stadium parking and their share of the TV and radio brodcast package. Eventually, professional sports ticket prices will reach the point of diminishing returns.
I stopped going to sporting events and most concerts years ago. These folks are the same ones who gouge fans and then want these same fans to redistribute their incomes. Hypocrites, almost all.
If I worked another 400 years at my current salary, I'd make 100,000,000.
Yet Obama the Commander in Thief and his STUPID LIBERAL COCK-SUCKING WORSHIPERS consider me rich and will be redistributing my hard earned wages so they can sit in their mother's basements, eating free cheese, jacking off and broadcasting insults on the internet.
Sometimes I really have the urge to kill a bunch of the lazy thieves. Let's hope it doesn't come to that. But it if comes down to feeding my family or feeding lazy no-good liberal leaches - I'll choose my family.
geez dude 100,000,000/400=250,000 a year
you are one of the rich that Obama is going to tax!!!!!!
you are one of the rich that Obama is going to tax!!!!!!

EXACTLY! Well, up to which time he lowers the definition of "rich" to burger-flipping wages (anyone who isn't too lazy to work). But that won't come until next August.
Every worker in America is SCREWED!
Who is Albert Haynesworth?
And Schteveo, Don't have a stoke.
You don't want to go there.
And Revolution is Coming, "EXACTLY! Well, up to which time he lowers the definition of "rich" to burger-flipping wages (anyone who isn't too lazy to work). But that won't come until next August." I agree entirely!
OT FYI - 6 pm, HST - Blazing Saddles is starting on AMC (35th aniversary of the debute). I'll count the *bleeps*!
Oh Shit - no bleeps - only silence. That of course, makes this a...
Silent Movie!
Good thing I can read lips! :-)
I've got Caddy Shack on AMC.
That means you missed Blazing Saddles - Caddy Shack comes on next!
SEE! When you live in HST you miss NOTHING! :-)
Nay, Jimbo. Blazing Saddles comes on next here. I don't know if that means 11:00 or midnight. *Sigh* I don't think I can last until 1:00 or 2:00 a.m.
Mongo straight!
WELL, it took over 12 hours, but C dash bug finally asked THE question of this story.
WHO is Haynesworth?
I'm one of those people who remembers "things" they hear. Names, places, dates, stupid trivia. It's just the way my head works. Conversely, my math skills are basic, except for an ability to "see" boolean algebra. That's the kind that makes your computers run.
But I digress.
My manually operated memory never once recalls hearing this guys name, except when someone was saying, "...stopped at the line by number 92, Haynesworth."
or
"...in tonight's NFL pre-season camp news, the best center, kicker in the NFL is Albert Haynesworth..."
For the uninformed, Haynesworth's best known attribute is a temper. He was in trouble for it in college, he once went after a teammate with a metal pole. And he's been in trouble in the NFL, he kicked his OWN team's center in the chest during practice.
Lemme return to a previous opinion. There are quite literally millions of college athletes who would do this job for a fraction of the money and with a better attitude. There's no reason to pay guys like this hundreds of millions and make a Sunday's entertainment of a ticket, a hot dog, and a beer cost what a VW did in 1962.
hey, in 1970 I paid $225 for a 1958 VW. Drove it around SoCal for 3 years, rolled it on the freeway doing 70 (no shit, all that happened was I cut my finger when the windshield wrapped around me)
and then sold it for $75 to someone who wanted the engine.
.... and they will still suck....
And, Tank McNamara's Sports Jerk of the Year for 2008 goes to none other than Plaxico "Glock" Burress of the Giants who shot himself in the leg in a NY nightclub. Hey, at least he used a decent weapon and not a Saturday night special.
Tank McNamara - isn't he the caveman dude in the comics?
Oh... wait... That's Alley Oop, he-he.
Well - almost the same thing.
Damn, Nerd - we're getting OLD!
