Washington Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth took umbrage with the Falcons' blocking techniques in a radio interview Thursday night and challenged linemen Tyson Clabo and Harvey Dahl. Haynesworth, who was recently voted the second-dirtiest player in the league in a Sports Illustrated poll, is clearly not a fan of their blocking intensity. One of the hosts then asked, "What are you going to do if they try to finish you, or cut you? Give us the inside scoop." Haynesworth said, "I'll keep it a surprise, if it happens."

Ooh, a surprise! Does it involve stepping on someone's head, Albert?

Also, nice usage of "umbrage". That word does not appear enough.

I believe he'll sic the NM soccer chick on them.

The "surprise" he has in mind is to help his team lose by double digits.

Another surprise is he is still playing, and not injured yet.

No kidding... she gives "fights like a girl" a whole new meaning.

I watched the replays, she deserves to be banned. Those were just complete cheap shots.

The Bronco Offensive linemen have made their living off of cut blocks to make the running game go since the early 80s. This is an old song. It is why they draft smaller, quick linemen.

Maybe he should just worry about winning a game, that in itself would be a "surprise."

November 7, 2009  11:35 AM ET

Gee, Fat Albert, you expect to do unto others, but not have them do unto you? What do you think you are, royalty or something?

Do you have Prince Albert in a can?
Well, you'd better let him out!

Come to think of it, he looks like he's sitting on the can in that picture.

That's because most NFL players think it's something you use to keep the rain off your head.
