“Light dawns over Marblehead.” It may be a Northeastern saying, but it applies to the big southern man playing defensive tackle in Philadelphia. The young, rowdy, quick to anger Haywood is now a 10-year grizzled, introspective 10-year veteran who has changed some of his ways. Maybe the most significant is money management. It was no secret that as soon as the game check cleared, young Honky Tonk would be out bouncing around Philly, or whatever road city he was in, and reveling in his favorite food, drink, and women. Now a days? Haywood has built up a significant bank account, a nest egg, to use once his playing career is over. Unsubstantiated rumors have it that Haywood is going to turn in the pads and helmet at the conclusion of Season 34, so that money will come in handy sooner rather than later. Here’s to hoping Haywood can thread the needle between a successful end of career with a healthy and happy retirement.
