Bess arrested
-
Here's the story from his being hospitalized before the Dolphins dumped him off on us:
OK, we didn't trade much to get him, risky, but worth the gamble if he got himself straightened out.
But to give him a raise and an extension??? I thought banner was so supposed to be Mr. Cap Genius.
Giving a guy a another guaranteed $6 million to be your third receiver when he just got out of the psych ward?

The Three Stooges, version 1, have made better investments.....nyah, nyah, nyah!
Genius is an understatement...and the beat goes on. In the Army, we used to call what they do "steppin' on their dicks".
This just keeps getting funnier or more sad...take your pick. It's time to man up & admit (and reverse) YOUR mistake(s) Jimmy.

Don't get me wrong, the TSA are complete assholes sometimes.... And I might even give Bess the benefit of the doubt, and say that he was just acting "hood" while blasting his ipod into his ears and singing, and then he proceeded to get harassed and reacted poorly.
Nevertheless, the dude aint acting like a role model, and he must of never realized, you need to keep politics, religion, and weed out of football.
Now he'll move to Jamaica, and join Ricky Williams, and Willie Nelson, so they can begin filming the movie, "Potfest", the sequel to "Beerfest" i've been waiting years to see.

I really think he most likely hit up all of the Miami/FT Lauderdale bars, took a bunch of molly, and then went to the airport a few hours later though.....

Turns out Bessie had a bizarre run in with the law at his home ten months ago ... A month before we signed him ... And he was yelling "Hide the weed" and "Hide the guns".
Way to do you due diligence Banbardi.
Haslem should seriously fire these fucks today and start with a clean slate.

Answered a question before I could even ask it...
What was the deal about his answer when responding to a reporter who asked about the Instagram photos of pot? His answer , "Ask Brandon Weeden" Huh?
Brandon is either his lawyer or his connection? Both? I think I read where Bess used to call Wheezy "Saul"...

I'll be shocked if FO does not file suit to void contract based on Morals cause for Bess' illicit activiities.
Nothing could improve this FO's player relations like beginning to sue one of them who (as has been pointed out) clearly needs help.

Report: Dolphins didn't tell Browns about Bess' condition before trade
By Ryan Wilson | CBSSports.comJanuary 19, 2014 10:24 am ET
The Dolphins reportedly took a 'don't ask, don't tell' approach to trading Davone Bess. (USATSI)

Last off season, shortly after Davone Bess was arrested and committed against his will to a treatment facility for psychological and emotional issues, the Dolphins traded him to theBrowns. But according to Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald, the Dolphins didn't share that information before consummating the deal.
"While the Dolphins knew Bess was troubled," Salguero wrote, "sources confirm they took a don't-ask-don't-tell approach on the matter when shopping and trading Bess. The Dolphins did not offer information on Bess' apparent personal instability."
If true, this reflects poorly on former general manager Jeff Ireland, who mutually agreed to leave the team earlier this month, as well as the Dolphins front office. It's why owner Stephen Ross stressed the word "integrity" when he explained what he was looking for in his next GM. "This individual also must be a person with integrity who is open-minded and creative," Ross said in a statement.
"Credibility and respect are currency in the NFL and no one wants to be bankrupt," Salguero points out. "You have no idea how many NFL people I talk to tell me about the respect they have for one another despite the fact they want to bash each other's heads in on game day."
Bess, who played in 14 games with the Browns during the 2013 season and caught 42 passes for 382 yards and two touchdowns, has been under scrutiny in recent days. First, he posted photos to Twitter of what appeared to be marijuana. And Friday, he was arrested forallegedly assaulting an officer at the Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood (Fla.) International Airport.
Bess missed the final two games of the 2013 season after the Browns placed him on the non-football injury list. The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports that Bess had been dealing with personal issues for some time and had been battling insomnia. He had flown back to Florida to seek treatment.
If the Browns decide to cut ties with Bess they can't do so until after the Super Bowl; all rosters for teams not taking part in the postseason are frozen until then.

How about a simple background check, boys? It's not hard to access public records.
So far Lombardi has picked up a guy with a torn ACL in the middle of the season, traded and given an extension to a receiver that had just gotten out of the mental ward ... oh and I sure didn't see Ozzie Newsome (or anyone else) giving him a tussle for Paul Kruger's rights. Did they give Desmond Bryant a physical before giving him $35 mil and finding out he needed heart surgery?
Jimmy ... Fire these fucks and start over ... we'll forgive you ... just do it.

I don't give the first shit about him smoking weed and anyone who does is a fool, but attacking people? And who knows how valid that really is. He could gave shoulder checked some TSA douche and all of a sudden they're making it out like he went apeshit on the guy.

"Browns general manager Michael Lombardi said the Bess deal was done, pending the veteran passing a physical on Saturday. Bess signed a three-year extension with the Browns on Saturday, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
To get Bess, the Browns traded their fourth-round pick (No. 104) and fifth-round pick (No. 164) to the Dolphins for Miami's fourth-round pick (No. 111) and a seventh-rounder (No. 217)."
