I can't help but giggle at those who blasted Chargers' GM, A.J. Smith, for not giving Vincent Jackson a huge one-year offer to get him to play this year, when I read the news item that the Redskins have suspended Albert Haynesworth for the last four games. He was signed to a $100 million contract but has goofed off and not followed the team plan because he didn't want to play nose guard in a 3-4 defense. Shanahan finally gave up on him.
Jackson finally gave in to Smith and agreed to play the last six games in order to get credit toward free agency. He ran two plays in his first game back and "injured" his calf without contact. He has not played since. Everything A.J. has done that drew fire from critics has been proven to be absolutely correct.
