61-year-old journalist James Fallows passes NFL conditioning test
"Le tout Washington DC is in a snarl about the standoff between Albert Haynesworth, the Redskins' hyper-talented defensive lineman, and Mike Shanahan, the new coach. Haynesworth, theoretically the most dominant player on the team but one who radiates Bad Attitude, skipped all off-season training sessions; Shanahan is either putting him in shape, or hazing him, by making him pass a 'conditioning test' before he can practice with the rest of the team. Haynesworth has now failed two or three straight times."
"But Lindsay Murphy, the Fox reporter, thought as I did that the Haynesworth test didn't sound so impossible."
