I guess I do wonder about that tour.
I figure as soon as a mafia underboss gets arrested a lot of the rats start running for cover.
But I think the other scenario was more similar than you'd like to admit. Mouthing off against your coaches in public and among your team mates is also insubordination. I certainly understand the kids frustration but...
Some people seem to think that if a player misbehaves by disobeying a suggestion or yapping to the press that if it goes unpunished other players might think they can get away with more shit.

A thought I do not remember seeing discussed anywhere.
Did the pressure of being named starter drive JM to party over the Bye week? Question rose out of reflecting upon what his father, IIRC, said long ago about JM drinking to deal with pressure.
Not offering the thought as an excuse, just exploring as a potential reason why he would break his word.

Or is it a sign of falling off the wagon, dating back to the roadside deal with girlly friend??....zero incidents involving alcohol for 6 months, then suddenly, 2 things happen in just a few weeks.....coinkidink?.....I think not.....
Something else not being discussed is his ex high school coach, who was hired by Johnny to live with & mentor him following rehab.......well, when he spoke publicly after the roadside incident, he said "its big big trouble if Johnny even had a single drink"...
Now...this is from a trusted source who is super close to Johnny and the situation......so, for those who insist that its "only a drink with friends" and we dont know the truth...you are in denial.....
Look....if it was just a young guy drinking, no one would care.....certainly not the Browns....and none of this would be happening...
But when you have a guy who says I have a problem, his boss says he has a problem, his Dad says he has a problem, his college coach says he has a problem, his HS coach says he has a problem and he starts lying to cover it.....then MAYBE he has a problem.....eh?

Report: Manziel expected to regain starting job before end of season
Dec 6 2015, 10:26 AMDan Wilkins
Johnny Manziel will reportedly have another opportunity to showcase his talents before the 2015 season reaches its conclusion.
The Cleveland Browns quarterback, who was recently demoted in a disciplinary move just days after being named the full-time starter, is expected to regain the lead job at some point down the stretch, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.
Rapoport added that head coach Mike Pettine's decision to start Austin Davis isn't something everyone in the organization is on board with, and the change could come as soon as next week.
As yet another lost season winds down, the Browns will certainly begin to look to the future. In doing so, the most sensible solution would indeed be to evaluate Manziel and determine whether he'll be brought back for a third season.
The former Texas A&M star had rebounded from a disastrous rookie season, making some positive strides both on and off the field, prior to his latest setback.
Davis will start in place of an injured Josh McCown on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals, and Rapoport's report suggests that Manziel will earn consideration for that role relatively soon after.

I saw and heard that report. You forgot to mention they also said dependant on how Davis plays today..... Context counts

If Davis plays well I think he continues to start as long as that remains the case. Pet would gladly let the circus fold if he had an alternative.
-
Or it could be like a used car lot when they get a clunker. Wash, wax, new rubber and get more than it's worth. I do figure we see the kid play again and things will be very skewed to make him look better than he is. I wish he was Tark but I've only seen Weeds on crack
-
Pulling for AD today since great play by him is a prereq to victory, but I have no doubt he'll open the door for JM to get starts before year's end. Really is nothing in his past or our make-up to suggest otherwise.
I am assuming that JM will keep his shit together to warrant consideration. If he does, I have no doubt that Pet will not hold him out.

I think it's another in a long line of attention grabbing moves from a guy who has accomplished zero in the NFL. Win some games and then you can do whatever the hell you want and the fans will defend you to the death.

Whenever I see that gesture, I just think tiniest violins playing the saddest songs

Today is Manziel's Birthday, same as my daughters... Shitty they wouldn't even let him play on his birthday... shitty.

Yup, look at Fig Newton down in Carolina- you think the opposition doesn't want to bust him up for doing that stupid dancing?

Yeah...and at 11-0 this year plus being in the league this long and winning games, I'd take him on my team in a heartbeat and he can dance till his fucking legs fall off for all I care.

Point is, Mark and h, Newton's play in the NFuckingL has earned him the right to dance...
