Derek Anderson Blasts YOU

EDIT: his 2010 contract was for 7.45 Mil
EDIT: his 2010 contract was for 7.45 Mil
-The cost of retaining Anderson was secondary. He doesnβt leave empty-handed, having made $6.45 million in salary and bonus in 2009, his fifth year as a Brown.- from Canton Repository article
Well, that was my point- the guy made millions in Cleveland, but according to DA, those darn lowlife fans just don't love my '09 quarterback rating of 42 enough. Dulldurn, I won 16 games as a starter, about $1 million per win. Yall hate us-& Holmie says you're an interception machine with an erratic cannon of an arm- go prove him wrong- and the betting odds say you can't.

i got you hoorta, i just had to fix the stat i was butchering. in the OP it said 2007 lol.
yeah that's a lot of bread. Cribbs might not make that in his entire career. surely Mike Adams and Abe Elam won't. actually, a ton of guys in the NFL won't make 14M in their careers.
in my opinion DnS he shoulda held his tongue a bit longer and waited for the right audience, like the fans who cheered for whatever reason. he may have held it for a long time but he sure let it go at the first opportunity.
he got paid HUGE and now he's getting a fresh start--to me it seems ideal for him. so why the immature angst? i hate that it's ending like this, even Braylon and Kellen left quietly.
that was a personal blow too, like he's been waiting to say it. it's a shame.
i could be reading into it but he acts like we owe him something.
-
I think we are now even.
He got his good share of insults from us and eventually he called us losers and said he's looking forward to come to Cleveland and roll the Browns (the fans, he probably meant).
I guess we can move on.
-
DA, no one feels sorry for you, you made more money thanks to the Cleveland Browns than 99% of the average Browns fan will make in a life time.
Your lack of commitment to the organization that made you richer than you ever deserved to be deserved more than your smart-ass smile after another game changing turnover game after game.
How many times can you rocket a pass 7 yds to a wide open RB in the flat or a WR under zone coverage?
How many times did you throw into double or triple coverage down field when you had someone that was wide open on the field?
How many BQ or Ratliff fans for that matter do you think you made over the years with your disgusting play?
Due to a long arduous deployment in 2007, the first game of the year I saw was the 2nd Cincy game and even then I didn't hate you even though that game disgusted me...
Then Phil made the mistake of overpaying you, the 2008 season spiraled out of control and dumb ass Crennel wouldn't bench you so after you already cost us the game vs Indy and got injured the real fans of the Browns (including myself) were cheering because a change in QB was finally forced on coin-flipping, slow to make a change, camp cupcake Crennel! I couldn't care less at that point who the back up was I was just tired of seeing you lose game after game.
Wallow in your self-pity and hatred for the fans of Cleveland if you want even though you are a very rich man thanks to our hard earned money you ingrateful A$$.
You were nothing but a one hit wonder now that I think about it...Kind of like that group in the '80's - Planet P - big things were expected of them too but their only hit song was "Why Me?"
I hope you do come back to Cleveland next year so we can finally share in your joyous smile as you are walking off the playing field after throwing (another) INT! and you can hum in you head all you want "Why Me?" but I don't feel sorry for you, good riddance!

DEREK HAS A RIGHT TO BE MAD. I love the Browns and am as loyal of a fan as there is, but you don't cheer the guy for getting injured, especially after he gave you the best season in over a decade. Browns have wonderful fans, and we also have A LOT of white trash hillbillies who don't know squat about the game that love to just act like a drunken fool in the stands on Sundays.
Everyone always talks about our great, loyal fan base, but we are not good fans as a whole. Same with the Cavs and Indians, when we are winning we love our team and fill the seats, but when we lose, we don't give a crap. The tribe may not sell out a HOME OPENER and if Lebron leaves Cleveland the Cavs would go under!
Cleveland sticks with their teams and never roots for a new squad, I will give them that, but we have way to many rude drunks representing US, THE GOOD FANS. I would venture to say that a majority of people on this board can be respected, coming to a forum like this to discuss detailed football topics. YOU GUYS KNOW WHO I AM TALKING ABOUT, and whether you want to admit it or not, you know that our fans are not what we make them out to be.
I was ashamed to be a Browns fan when we cheered D.A. getting hurt. That's something Philly would do.
Remember the Cincy coach yelling at his fans, this isn't Cleveland -- he had a point.
Bottlegate, as well.
I am just sick to my stomach again, remembering how terrible we really are.

Careful there Metcalf. Your speaking the truth. You could get banned for that here. It doesn't matter how big a browns fan you are, never speak negative . Drink the kool-aid and pretend. The admins around here don't take kindly to negative remarks about the browns no matter how true. Heck, I finally signed up to post this warning after lurking here for a long time and I'll probably get banned for saying this. Sad

Good riddance 3 years overdue imho...as for ruthless fans 10 years of ruthless losing and ruthless poor almost non existent football culture from inside the organization will do that, we not only deserve a winner but with anderson gone assures us we will have a winner...
Good luck DA i hope you enjoy your new role as a backup qb on some other team, its all you should have been in cleveland...

If anybody has the right to blast a team or its fans, it's DA. This guy was surrounded by absalute crap for a roster and was the guy taking the fall for every loss. He has had 5 OCs and 4 HCs in his career. 3 OCs before he turned 25! He NEVER got a full training camp or preseason despite what Quinn fans say. His job was never secure. I recall even after a 3 game winning streak in 2007 where DA was playing exceptional, the questions were still about how him playing well would effect Brady Quinn's playing time. ARE YOU F'N KIDDING ME?! He has been answering questions about his backup for 3 years. Notice his best games were the first half of 2007. I don't find it coincidental that nothing at that time suggested him being replaced. It wasn't until early November of 2007 when people starting asking about his backup and how much time he would get in 2008, that he started the DA stuff most of you will remember him for. The guy has been playing tight since the end of 2007. Why? Because he knew that if he didn't go 25/30 with 2 TDs and 0 ints, that he could very well lose his job. And we all knew it. Except Ron Jaworski on ESPN who said that DA was his absolute favorite young player to watch on film in 2007. He went though his reads, he could make every throw, and he didn't take sacks. Now imagine being a 23 year old hillbilly QB who just got off the Jim Rome show talking about about how well you've been playing; only to leave the green room and answer questions about your handsome backup QB; and how well you think he's doing in practice. I would have some ill feelings for this town too. And as he reminded us, he was cheered when he got hurt.
I don't think fans realize just how young the guy was when he got here. He's only a few months older than Quinn and he's been through a lot of systems and had to play with some really, really bad teams. It wasn't all him by any means. And what's even worse is the fan base didn't just prefer the handsome golden domer, but they seemed to out right hate DA. I mean after all he was the only thing between them and their hot-pants QB right? Quinn was obviously a superstar waiting to happen but the ugly stepsister DA was in the way. These last 3 years with BQ/DA have been like something I have never seen before in professional sports and will likely never see again. It was just ugly from the orginization down to the fans. It has been disgusting. I have seen fans choose hometown sex symbol over their team. And to make matters worse, I saw fans hoping for the team to fail! Fans were ignoring principal formulas for winning just so they could "see what Quinn can do". Absolutely sickening. As dumn as Steelers fans are, not even they have stooped so low and emberassed other fans this much.
I know I sound like DA's attorney but this 3 year circus has been a roller coaster of lost perspectives, fanboy mentalities, reverse evolution, and full on man/love/gay/misguided/uninformed/irrational/booze induced ass backwards persepectives and behaviors for the sake of "seeing what he can do". In a vaccum that is just assinine; but when it comes at the expense of the entire team, then it's almost criminal.

Didn't we laugh at Tim Couch when he got hurt too. We r fans and we pay damn good money to watch these players do their job, if its cheering for a td or for someone getting hurt, it dont matter, we still put money in their pockets. DA you have always blamed the other person for your wrong doing's. Now you are gone, and I am happy for that, thanks for the 1st Cincy game in 2007 and go F**k yourself for the 2nd one.

So you feel you have a right to speak your mind anytime, and DA does NOT????...
I agree with DA and how he was treated...this is a BQ luv fest in Cleveland, why??..I'll never know...he's a NO TALENT PUNK,.
DA will be fine, I can't blame him for wanting to get out...
NOW Seneca Wallace will be treated like a dime store bitch every time he see any playing time...
YOU GO DA and get yourself some real talent to work with and some real class fans......
No need to be part of this Brady Quinn HOMOFEST anymore...
-
Qbs that whine and lash out at fans like DA did ruins there chance to again in the league. No team is going to want that; it show immaturity, lack of disicipline, and someone who cann't take the pressure of the fans; cann't take the pressure of a 300lb def lineman chasing his sorry ass around the field.
-
conversely, you think any QB's wanna play here knowing they'll get booed when they go down? you think the respect for the cleveland fanbase exists outside of said fanbase?
this is like 2 children fighting over the best toy in the sandbox. in the end, their both whinging and crying.
-
Doesn't surprise me. This whole season he seemed to have a prick-like attitude to him. He can go f**k himself and his petty-bullshit attitude. Freakin loser. Get the hell away from my beloved Browns.

have you seen the clip of philly fans throwing ice and snowballs at SANTA!!! Thats classless.

I look forward to his return to Cleveland, he's a marked man now.
I'm pretty sure that the players know it will buy them Franchise like credibility with the fans if they are the one to knock him out of the game.
-
A blast about us fans not deserving of a winner, is a blast towards the players in our locker room; in my opinion.

I was at the SD game in Cleveland when it was about 2 degrees out. Moved down from the nose bleeds and sat at the fifty yard line about 100 ft behind the Browns bench. The entire second half DA sat on the end of the Gatorade cart and spat into a garbage can every 20 seconds, looking off past the scoreboard with a blank faint stare.
My buddy looked over at me (After working all day...outside in the snow.... at a steel yard) and said.... "Where can I get a gig like that and make that kind of money..."
Anyway you slice it, most of these guys are whiney, spoiled morons. Alot of us fans (especially in our area) work at jobs that there is a chance of being disfigured and/or killed on a daily bais, (one of my good friends was hit by a steel beam that fell from a crane and now sits in a wheelchair for the rest of his lfe) and this dude wants to complain about being booed at his job...
Sorry about your luck DA.... sucks that you've been blessed enough to play football for a living.... is there anything else we can do for you?

Just heard on the mike and mike show that DA says he's SORRY! LOL
