One of my favorite Browns writers nails it again with his take on the Johnny Football situation in Cleveland:

As I understand it, per league rules after the rookie mini the Browns (or any team) were not allowed to "block" national media from any functions. So I'm not seeing this enlightened reversal the article goes on about.

We had a saying in the military, work hard, play hard. As long as you can perform it doesn't matter.

In the Army in 'Nam, it was easy. Long a favorite saying of mine & when questioned about that attitude, I just explained it as, "I might not even be here tomorrow, so I live today as if it's my last day on earth".
I salute Johnny as he sure seems to embody the "Work hard, play hard" philosophy.

Yeah. If it were up to the higher ups, nobody would be in attendance for any practice.
Also, if you're going to post an article, have the balls to at least call it your own.

really? the face of the franchise? GTFO.
even though i know a lot of people in the media game and dealt with them for years it wouldn't hurt my feelings a bit if they all got flushed down the toilet.
what a bunch of garbage.

Who would you say is the face of the franchise?
Players. Current players.
None of this, "every player is the face of the franchise" bologna.
Every team has a marquee player. Some have two.

I'd agree with that. They were the best players the Browns had for the last 5-8 years.
But now it's Manziel.

haden and thomas, i agree.
one day it could be JF, maybe sooner than later.
you can't just tag a guy the face of the franchise when he hasn't taken a snap yet.

Premature... possible, maybe even inevitable, but premature.

I don't think you have a choice. The "face" is what people think of when they think of the browns. That's Manziel.
I'm not saying it's right or logical, but that's the truth. I understand marketing other players on billboards and stuff, probably best until a guy makes a pro bowl or wins a playoff game.

Vegas must love this guy. First the free promotional spot from this weekend and now this.

That is what YOU think of when thinking of the Browns. I for one do not, and I'm sure I'm not just speaking for myself.
Not saying he'll never be, but c'mon he's been on the team for less than a month now...

No need to bookmark, I don't think any of us will forget the 143rd Texas A&M fan to join the site and tell us how great our quarterback is going to be.

Hahaha Z. Yep, the 143rd Texas A&M fan is as memorable as the 69th or the 96th one.

Just a little change of pace......

Well back (no pun or bun intended) to the topic, here is a good read on the business side of "Johnny Football"., a.k.a. "Johnny Cleveland".
