Stay Classy Tennessee

Former Georgia standouts may get arrested for DUI occasionally, but Tennessee products take a different approach to attempted murder: case in point, Albert Haynesworth of the Titans, who (as most have already heard) decided to stomp on the opposing team. Not figuratively, but literally - on the head - with the guy's helmet off. And this isn't the first such incident. He had a little problem with his temper when he was with the Vols too. Now I know Wikipedia can have erroneous information, but the following excerpt was backed up with links to news stories:

Albert Haynesworth (born June 17, 1981) is a current American Football defensive tackle for the Tennessee Titans in the National Football League. He is best known for stomping on the forehead of Dallas Cowboys center Andre Gurode in a game early in the 2006 NFL season.

Haynesworth played college football in the University of Tennessee. He has a history of issues with his temper. For example, while a sophomore at Tennessee, he fought with a teammate and left practice, returning with a long pole looking for tackle Will Ofenheusle before coach Phillip Fulmer stopped him. He was suspended for a half of a game. Another incident occurred at a Titans training camp, where he kicked center and teammate Justin Hartwig in the chest, and had to be restrained by teammates.[1]

Arrest warrants were issued against Haynesworth in two Tennessee counties in May of 2006 stemming from a traffic incident on Interstate 40. Both sets of charges were dropped in June of 2006. The Judge in the Putnam county case tossed the charges on the grounds that the alleged offense happened out of their jurisdiction. In Smith county, the district attorney dismissed the charges. [2]
