Albert Haynesworth

Raise your hand if you're shocked that Haynesworth lost most of the $40M he got from the Redskins. But hey, it wasn't his fault!

"When you hit free agency, the Washington Redskins are going to offer you $100 million. Everyone will talk about this (they won’t talk about the fact that most of that money is not guaranteed, or that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offered you $135 million). The $100 million will become a huge burden. Take less and stay in Tennessee where you belong."

That was a really good and interesting read.

I'm a bit torn cause he wasn't too smart with his money (not all his fault given the financial advisor being a jackwagon) but he should've been smarter with his money during his playing career also.
