Westside Steve Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 I'm not sure how to post a picture but I downloaded one from Facebook featuring my boy number 17 the great Brian Sipe flipping some asshole the bird. Hopefully it was a Shittsburgh Squeeler or one of their dipshit fans. WSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyin J Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 How can we be seen as a great fanbase if this is how much patience we have? Its almost as if were so hateful and shortsighted we put an extra layer of pressure on our QBs. Two fucking preseason games and our 21 year old QB is a wasted pick? This is like a new level of embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradyBunchBust Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 I have a feeling they love all the attention their getting because lets be honest, in the past years how many times did you hear about the browns on sports center. Now they have a player with top selling jersey and makin bank!! Love the manziel attention. Not the player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoorta Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 I think this organzation regrets coming back to Cleveland. Well, JFF, I'd suggest you learn some history about the Browns fanbase- because you were only 2 years old when Traitor Art pulled the rug out from under us. There was picketing of NFL headquarters, FAX machines and phone lines got jammed. Our Name, our Team, our Colors. Never happened before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoundDawg Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 Flipping a guy off in the middle of a game is no biggie, IMO, but the way JFF did it was not at all "badass." You want to give someone the "f" you, at least face them. It was a punk, pussy move to do it while jogging away from them with your back turned. This guy is all overblown hype. I'm sorry. If he had been named the starter, I would have supported him and respected his game play, but I don't think he has earned an ounce of respect either on or off the field. Frankly, I have no interest in watching him attempt to grow up because I see him being a long way from anywhere near grown. Maybe because I'm older and now know that I didn't even realize how much I didn't know when I was 21, but I have no patience for his persona. Act like a grown up, you will be treated like one. If you are not ready to be a grown up, good, go for it, be young and foolish while you can, but do it elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombo Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 Well shit! WSS Flipped off Bill Cowher after Joey Porter took him out after a punt. Later played for Cowher when they won the SB. But I'm sure Brian Sipe would have no problem giving the collective Steeler organization the bird. Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 I think this organzation regrets coming back to Cleveland. This organization? Which organization is that? If you mean the Cleveland Browns franchise, it never went anywhere, so it had no where to come back from. Or are you talking about the Jimmy Haslam ownership organization? Or the Ray Farmer organization. Where do you think anyone went to come back from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the organization, or: or·gan·i·za·tion ˌôrgəniˈzāSHən/ noun 1. an organized body of people with a particular purpose, especially a business, society, association, etc. left. As far as I can remember, the franchise that resumed was comprised of all new individuals, save for a select few that may have stayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mudfly Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 I think this organzation regrets coming back to Cleveland. This organization regrets nothing, as they are still in their first year and haven't even played their first game yet...... In just a few months, they have completely restructured the team, scored some solid FA's and killed it in their first draft..... What's to regret???

As far as I can remember, the franchise that resumed was comprised of all new individuals, save for a select few that may have stayed. Well, any two people that hang out together can fit that definition of organization. (e.g. the Blount/Bell Organized crime syndicate?) And even if it was an "organization" that left.....when did that organization come back as the OP stated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From draft day to this past weekend, all he's done is create pressure on himself. All hes done is live his life....Those aint selfies you see posted on the internet. I guarantee Rodgers, Rapeberger, Rivers, and Newton all had their good times after they were drafted. They just didnt end up on TMZ because of the whole worlds infatuation with them. The only things hes done wrong since hes been here are showing up late to a meeting and flipping the bird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brnfan16 Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 Its hard when you have the glory of High School and College Football. He was on top of the world. Now, he is just a rookie QB trying to become a starter an a mediocre team. He better get used to getting fucked with and grow some thick skin. Im buying everything your saying. Green rookie, so much growning to do. Bird fipping thats so High School. The whole NFL going to welcome him with baptisum by fire. Don't want to see his "fingers rubbing money" routine either. Shut up and learn Rookie!... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clevfan4life Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 Can we all please shut up about JF? Let him hold the clipboard this season. Honestly he should be #3 on the depth chart this year after Grossman who should come in if god forbid Hoyer goes down again. JF needs to learn NFL defense's. Once he does that than we can give him a realistic appraisal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still expect Johnny to start at some point this year, unless Hoyer does what we can only dream of.....Win games and give us good QB play.
