Gaither Still Hasn't Practiced (Merged)
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...chargers-camp/
Quote:
Michael Gehlken of the Union-Tribune San Diego confirms that Gaither’s back is “healing slower than the Chargers hoped.” Gaither will not play in the Chargers’ exhibition opener, and “there is some doubt” about his availability for the second week of the preseason.
May not mean much in the long run, but it's a pretty bad coincidence that he's struggling with his back again after getting paid.
Jared Haynesworth...er, Gaither @ it again
Re: Jared Haynesworth...er, Gaither @ it again
you guys realize this goes against what people say about him. that he faked an injury because he didnt want to play RT or wanted a contract... hes their unquestioned LT and he just signed a 4 year deal. if anything its more proof that he had the injury to begin with and even better, more proof that we made the right call by letting him go.
Re: Jared Haynesworth...er, Gaither @ it again
He can't waste time at practice, after all he does need time to spend that $8,000,000.00 bonus... Bc

I honestly can't even remember what the issue was with him (I stayed out of the Gaither debates), it's just bad timing that he's suffering with back spasms (which I don't think is what he suffered from here) now.
Re: Jared Haynesworth...er, Gaither @ it again
He's going to be making 13 million and doesn't have to do jack shit for it lmao, seen this coming a mile away. Such a talented player, and doesn't even want to play.

Either ...
He is incorrigibly lazy and getting rid of him was the right move ...
Or ...
He has legit and serious back issues and getting rid of him was the right move.
Agreed.
Please everyone, do not mention again that this couch sitter should have stayed here. Regardless your opinion of him (lazy or injury prone) this was the right move by moving on.

Thoradic disc injury... which back spasms are a side effect of or it could be completely unrelated and caused by something else. Didnt mean to group you anything, just that the "faked the injury crowd" used those two reasons as to why he apparently faked his injury. The Lazy and horrible work ethic people are still going, which i dont necessarily disagree with, but that also doesnt mean he faked the injury.

even though ive always defended him for truly being injured, this much ive always said. it was time to get rid of him regardless how you feel about his injury. he was good the limited time he played here, and he could have been great if he worked harder but you pay for the future and his was just not worth investing in at the time, and has been proven right regardless.

Lol. I'm not sure what's worse JaMarcus Russell robbing the Raiders for money or Gaither robbing the Chargers.
