The Browns have about as bad ownership as the Clippers do. Goodbye Cleveland thread and I wont let the door hit me in the ass.

Then you are not a true steelers fan. In no, way shape or form does any steelers fans wnat the browns to do well when they arent playing the steelers.

A steelers win on sunday is lessened if the browns also win. Told a buddy of mine who just got drafted that if he went to the browns I hope he throws for 300 yards, 4 TD and 0 INTs every game but lose each game.

As far as I'm concerned if Bennett or Austin in any combination can contribute in all 16 games, WR should be fine without Gordon. Austin is probably the best you are going to get in FA. Just hope he can stay relatively healthy.

To summarize for Mr. Feinstein and the rest of the butthurt national media:

1. Your presence can not help the organization.
2. Fuck you.
Feinstein is butthurt? Really? Ripping the Browns for their childish handling regarding the media is hardly a sign of butthurtiness. Your line of thinking is to put the Heisman trophy winner in a cage...never to be heard from again.

You must live on another planet dufus. Answering to the media is part of the entertainment package. Only in the Browns bizarro world is the national media banned. And the Cleveland jokes continue.

and has his ripping harmed the Browns in any tangible way? It has not. If he wrote something glowing about the Browns does it help them in some material way? Again, the answer is no. Can the presence of the national media cause a distraction at this camp the the team doesn't need? Yes, it can. Correct decision.

Oh noes, Cleveland jokes? How horrible.

Bottom line, the presence of the national medial in no way helps the team, it has some possibility of hurting the team. Perfectly valid decision.

I have to concur with the decision. Johnny will have plenty of time to be the center of attention and talk to the media. It's not necessary for it to be from day 1. What's he going to say? The same old, "I'm going to come in and work hard." "I just want to win." yada yada yada... Rookie mini camp is important for the new players to get to know their teammates, coaches, and schemes. Those items can be difficult enough for some of these guys without the distraction of media. He will get his time in the sun, but it doesn't have to start from day 1.

Loggains said that as Manziel slid down the draft board, he sent him a text that read: "I wish you guys would come get me. Hurry up and draft me because I want to wreck this league together."
Added Loggains: "When I got that text, I forwarded it to the owner (Jimmy Haslam) and to the head coach (Mike Pettine). I'm like, 'This guy wants to be here. He wants to be part of it.' As soon as that happened, Mr. Haslam said, 'Pull the trigger. We're trading up to go get this guy.'"

Great to see that, especially from a guy who didn't grow in in the area or as a Browns fan.

Why the need to fix it? Every player wants to get drafted, but not every player wants to get drafted by Cleveland.

He probably only was told he was being targeted by a few teams and Cleveland was one of them. If he really just wanted to play in Cleveland he should have come out and publicly stated he would only play for Cleveland because that's where he wants to play. The reality is, he saw himself dropping and wanted to get drafted in the 1st round for more guaranteed money.

Farmer must know something we don't about Gordon.

I know little sucks and I'm glad he was cut, but damn we are very thin at receiver.

Little is just fucking horrible. Just on the top of my head, I can pretty much single handedly blame him for 3 losses.


Cue the predictable "derp a merp, browns always lose they suck" post from dlazz...

It's not just his catching ability. He can't run routes and get open.
