He's always been wealthy, no? His family is very well off I believe.

This was why I was beside myself over his willingness to potentially sell his team's season down river for a few bucks in college...

anyway, are there any Browns fans round these parts still thinking this was a good draft pick??? serious question.

I live here in Cleve-Burg and I can't find a sole who are still happy we drafted him. The lipstick has been completely rubbed off this pig. Can't even stand to look at him.

I know a few Browns fans who aren't happy that the Browns drafted him, but still maintain that most of the anti-JFF sentiment comes from people who are simply Johnny-haters. But that just goes to show you how desperate some Cleveland fans have become, to have a winning NFL team.

Not drafting Watkins and Bridgewater, when every sensible NFL fan on the planet knew that was the right course to take, is going to hang over this franchise like The Drive and The Fumble...

Money Badger don't care, it does what it wants. True then, and still true today.

It is sad that anyone thought Manziel was going to shape up and excel at the NFL level. He wasn't even a good QB at the college level (From an x's and o's and football IQ standpoint), he was just an athlete that found ways to make plays with his feet and get the ball to Evans.

I said it then, if Mike Vick couldn't make 'street ball' work consistently in the NFL, no one ever will... surely not JFF

Hey Deion,
Johnny had issues before her. Could they be arguing because she's on his ass to get into rehab? This appears to be one of those situations where he has to hit rock bottom before he does something. Given his attitude going back to A&M, I wonder if rehab is going to help?

As a Vikings fan, I want to say thank you. We really appreciate Bridgewater.

As a Browns fan, I cannot wait until they release him. I don't care if he turns into an all-pro with another team, he has been yet another black eye for this franchise. They have enough issues without having to deal with his troubled ass. Hope as a human being he gets his life together but not in NEO.

I couldn't run in the shape of a penis if I tried. So if this is true, impressive. If this is just something drawn up, I have to think the artist routinely draws... Other things.

On the Prevail and Ride main page it says right on the banner "Dick's make everything funnier." He draws a lot of MS Paint dicks or dildos....usually stuffed in Bob Stoop's mouth.

Not to pile on as I know we have quite a few Browns fans around here but the writing has been on the wall with this kid since day 1. This is Ryan Leaf all over again, good news is you didn't draft him that high, lol.

Mike Vick was and is the most exciting football player I have ever seen in the NFL. But as you mentioned the consistency just didnt exist. But surely, if someone was going to do it, Vick was the guy.

I remember impassioned debate in the the NFL draft thread when he was getting picked. Some people were VERY excited. Others were the opposite.

Just think, they had to physically restrain Jerry Jones from picking him (or so the legend goes) to take "unsexy" ZMart who has been an All-Pro.

Jerry deserved Johnny.

Yea, I was very nervous that old Jerry would doing something stupid. When they took ZMart, it might have been the most excited I've been about a Cowboys draft pick in a long long time, maybe ever, for two fold. They didn't take Johnny and I love ZMart.

I'm pissed he made me eat crow.

So I'll refuse to rescind it again.

But damn what a waste. I detected douchebaggery years ago. Lots of love and hate for this kid.

In the end his truth showed.

Is it the end?

I kind of hope this is the end, because I don't see a positive trajectory at this point... Let's hope it just doesn't get worse.

He obviously doesn't give two shits about football if he's going to continue to do this. I mean, at this point, its basically clean up or your career is over. At least it seems that way. I could see someone giving him a shot but he's not giving himself many bargaining angles to play with teams that are worried about his character.
