  • Why does he DESERVE privacy?

    Johnny self-promoted his whole life. That's what he's about. He wants to be in the media and he wants attention. He's all about Hollywood.

    Can't have it both ways.

    Now does he deserve support, maybe another chance, help? Sure. Just as everyone.

    But when you beg for attention, you get it when you want it and when you don't.

    And why do you deserve to pry?

  • It has to take a ton of courage to admit ya need help,

    and go into rehab. That can't be a piece of cake.

    The media needs to stop it for once, and tasteless jokes

    just aren't right about it.

    Now, if he was some rock or movie star who goes into rehab every two years or so...

    it would be a joke maybe...

    But ridiculing the kid for it is low class. So many people's lives have been damaged in one

    way or another, by additictions. I hope he gets his life back, and goes for it. And guys like McCown

    will be a great help.

    Ah... it's relapses that are potentially funny...

    Got it...

  • No, sorry, I just meant that the rock star or movie star would think

    it was a joke, and never took it seriously.

    Not talking about a legit relapse.

    I see both sides but I tend to lean on this one.

    Manziel is one of the biggest self-promoters in sports, so you are going to have to take the good with the bad.

    Yeah, they are still running his Snickers spot where I live. Not that is his decision but he's still out there.

  • Manziel left rehab to go on trip

  • Hoping it's a vacation

    thats a wow.....too much going on for me to absorb it all.....

    though I did note they also had the Browns trading up to grab Cooper.....which is an idea that I HATE.....

    otherwise....interestink

  • Got away with his girl. Still in rehab. Still 5'11. Still overwhelmed by speed of NFL game.

  • Why would we trade away an unproven QB for another unproven QB?

    I know many of you don't like Manziel and rightfully so,

    but if any team ever gives up on 1st round QB after 5 fucking quarters... it's lunacy.

    See if he can turn it around this year, if not then you have a nice crop of QB's next year.

    Exactly. My thread is a reaction to the wave of Johnny hate. Let the guy flame out first before you call him a bust. Still, Manziel for Mallett isn't unreasonable.

  • This isn't my crazy speculation but it does have........ Mariota a brown???

    Maybe Brian, took a few too many shots to the head during his playing days.....but maybe not....

    Still an NFL quarterback, unlike us. Dude's yucking it up.

  • lol It just keeps getting better. What a great 1st round drafting machine we are.

    Not a viable starter from what...our last five first round picks....Johnny Rehab, Mingo ate my baby, Aarp weeden, gilbert grape, the other name eludes me...thanks to therapy.

  • Personally, I'm just growing tired of the shit-talking pessimists who contribute nothing to this board other than bitching and complaining. This is my attempt to get actual intelligent people like yourself to have conversation, since this requires a little more critical thinking than "MANZIEL is a FUCKING DRUNK and is a FAGGOT" or "fuck haslam fuck the front office fuck farmer we need to shitcan everyone and start over". TC

    **********************************************

    So very tired. Apparently, it's been a contest with a few people, to see who could be the worst of it.

    I figure Gordon will come back after a year, out of shape, stoned on his ass, get dropped out of training camp...

    and he'll sue the NFL for not giving him a chance.....

    You can keep shooting rainbows out your ass and stay positive, but people spend good money and have a right to bitch and complain when they get screwed over year after year. You dont have to click on the threads or even read them. It will quiet down as moves are made and they are quiet in FA so peeps have nothing to divert to.

    I will be interested to see how many fans will be praising gilbert after this year. He has all the tools and is working with Haden to have a strong season next year. I was happy when the Browns drafted him and look forward to watching his progress next year. With Haden, Desir, Williams, and Gilbert I think we are in good shape and I am glad we did not re-sign Mr. Flag Buster Skrine or feel the need to sign any other over priced Free Agent DB.

  • Mariota's stock will drop..guaranteed. Overthrew deep balls on pro day, no zip on the ball in endzone schemes. Doesnt have a canon for an arm and some bad college habits, not the johnny rehab ones, im talking making the transition to pros.
