[4Browns]

What a douche bag!

[Squintz]

LOVE IT! You beat me to the punch - I saw this and it made my morning.

[IschY]

Love Mangini or Hate him you have to aggree with his decision to get this dumb ass out of town. Guys like this bring teams like the Jets down.

[djdawg2010]

Karma's a bitch ain't it Braylon!!!

[1 more season]

is this part of the New York essence Braylon said he had and that Cleveland couldn't handle or whatever he called it?

Idiot!

[Kosar_For_President]

Can someone please tell me why millionaires drive when drunk? At least a cab, damn.

[ClevelandFanForLife]

at least there is some good news this season. he probably told the cop that "you only pulled me over because i'm from michigan."

[NewEraDawg]

He will say the cop had ohio connections , so since he's a MEECHEGAN boy he was targeted .

The punk

The same reason poor people drink and drive. Their judgment becomes impaired and they make a poor choice.

Most people don't leave the door thinking they are going out to get hammered. It just happens in most cases.

I heard the NYPD wanted to throw the book at Braylon Edwards. But he couldn't catch that either. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[ATENEARS]

He obviously couldn't catch a cab ...

[calfoxwc]

All the MORE REASON to draft for CHARACTER, INTEGRITY and WORK ETHIC/LOVE FOR THE GAME.

Super star talents with no character just end up in trouble with the law, or causing trouble in the lockerroom...

or on the field....

SO glad Mangini and co. got Braylons stupid arse out of town !!!!

[NavySteve_Browns4Life]

Edwards...what a class act, huh? This guy will never learn. Good job Mangini for getting him out of town

[ATENEARS]

You know what is really bad, is that Braylon was with Stallworth the night morning he killed a man with his vehicle and mucked up his life pretty badly for a poor decision after a night out drinking. Braylon was pulled over at 5:15am this morning. What an idiot.

Word is though that it wasn't his fault. He would have been in bed by midnight but the 5-hr energy drink kicked in.

[ClevelandFanForLife]

he'' probably drop the soap too. BUZZZZZZZZING!

[Canton Mike]

Braylon to Judge......

"But your HONOR, I was PRACTICIN' gettin' relaxed for the game. I can't catch a DAMN thing sober!!"

[FearTheRoo]

The real crime i think...was the beard!

An immense talent and blessed..........committed after millions to be a dope

Jets have every right to be livid with Edwards, Ferguson, Gholston

Posted by Mike Florio on September 21, 2010 9:29 PM ET

Many think that the Jets should have gone farther with the play-but-won't-start discipline imposed on receiver Braylon Edwards. Though the labor agreement, in theory, prevents them from deactivating him with pay, it would have been very unwise for Edwards -- a free agent in 2011 -- to make a bad situation worse by taking a stand under circumstances suggesting that he wasn't taking responsibility.

But the Jets presumably placed winning on Sunday against the Dolphins over sending a message. The attitude isn't surprising, given that the team's recent personnel moves indicate a decidedly short-term, win-now focus.

Regardless, the team has every right to be very upset with Edwards and the men who reportedly were in the vehicle with him -- left tackle D'Brickashaw Ferguson and defensive end Vernon Gholston. As Chris Mortensen of ESPN pointed out earlier today, the Jets conducted a team meeting last week to distribute a flyer explaining the Player Protect program, which provides no-cost transportation by limo from a "full service security and security driving company."

So it wasn't just one player who failed to connect the two dots and seek out a free ride. It was three.

And not only did they fail to take advantage of a free limo ride, but they also let the guy with the blood alcohol concentration of 0.16 percent drive.

On that point, we've been privately accosted by a member of the New York media for suggesting that Ferguson and Gholston were as drunk as or drunker than Edwards. Frankly, we're not sure what's worse -- three drunks allowing the guy who is perceived to be the most sober get behind the wheel or two sober guys deciding that the drunk guy should be their chauffeur.

Either way, three members of the Jets' starting lineup had an opportunity to avoid a major embarrassment for the franchise, and they failed.
