Ibleedbrown Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 What a long strange trip it’s been. I can’t help think that Gordon being on the team created some unsavoriness within the locker room and how he was basically given an exemption on training camp and more. I mean, that’s what creates the bond between a team is going through the same crap, both good stuff and bad, day in and day out, together. It works for a football team as well as a glee club. The only thing l can liken it too is when Josh Hamilton and his troubled past joined the Reds. He actually performed well for them and didn’t screw up, but there were rumblings about how others on the team didn’t care for the preferential treatment he was getting, and boom, he was later traded.

Dorsey did the right thing to a team that can claim him on a million for a year than what player will see being cut monday. Who's giving Josh a new FA deal?

Wtf? ur not getting sht now dumbass. It does seem as though we would have kept our cool, show cased him today and perhaps Thursday then traded him. Since it appears he has violated nothing to result in a suspension we may get higher than a 7th as teams vie to obtain him for the year on his rookie contract. If he is cut he is a full free agent able to go where he chooses and negotiate his own salary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 Good riddance, addition by subtraction. Last I heard, Gordon stayed out most all of training camp,then claimed a hamstring problem because he played in some ...basketball competion ? Whatever it was, it wasn't permitted by the NFL or the Browns. I remember that Gordon and Johnny thought they were the only "real" ones... Gordon is just a locked in loser. Too bad. I thought he would have been in training camp every single day, to get his last chance and....nope. Excuses, fails, and dope and booze,... All that talent and no legit brains or heart. Nobody can blame the Browns for trying and trying to help him, but he couldn't care less to help himself. Done. *EDIT - oh, and I wonder if he was supposed to come back for that pass that got intercepted. whatever. just.... Done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nero Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 I'm not surprised but this but I can't stop feeling frustrated. Talent does not always meet with self control.

Exactly. I think we all were hoping he was coming back to give a big boost to the offense. It just appears he's unmotivated. If that's the case he won't succeed anywhere.

beare Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 Contrary to what lot believe he will be picked up quickly!! I can understand browns upset with him but why not suspend him 4 games or so rather then just cut him get nothing.If drugs or alcohol arent involved im not sure they should outright cut him!

Tour2ma Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 ... and the beat goes on... He hasn't been released yet... 4 hours ago, Westside Steve said: True but he is still on the rookie salary correct? If he's a free agent they can ask for the Moon. Released is being used, but I think "waived" is the proper term (kinda like collusion vs. conspiracy... but I digress). Anywho... were he waived he'd have to clear waivers to become an UFA, and the odds of that happening given the trade inquiries that came rolling in on the news are slim and none.

He doesn't have to go through waivers. He's a vested vet so if he's released he becomes a free agent. That's why its put out that we are going to release him. Find out who wants him bad enough to give us something for him. Once he's released and a free agent he can go anywhere he wants to go. Dallas and SF have shown interest.

As Flugles said, it took Ghoolie around 4 days to revert to form Trollie. He's gotten more chances on this Board that Gordon got with the Browns. Sorry Tour I wasn't diligent enough in deleting his nonsense flamebaiting. I called him out to post a link showing Gordon was drunk- and I'm still waiting for it.

Ghoolie Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 5 hours ago, Flugel said: Unfortunately I'm one of the knuckleheads that put logic in a gas fire. Gotta confess - he beat the tar out of me over the years. When he first arrived I was all - "let's give the guy a chance." Fooled me once, fooled me twice and then I went all about-face the next few years posting WTF are we wasting our time on this guy for? Next thing I know I'm finding myself all in on his "Come to Jesus" moment with finally taking the drug addiction and career serious. Gee, there's a surprise - Flugel has his village idiot hat on before week 2 kicks off. That wasn't cheap either. I had to fill out an id ten t form to get it. Here's what that form looks like in all caps - ID10T. There's allegedly a handful of teams interested (per ESPN's Adam Schefter) - so can we at least get more than a 7th round pick for him? Or, do we massacre that too? You got caught up in his potential, Flugz. We all did. The comments now, including mine are filled with a lot of frustration and anger. I think however that even his best champion has to admit that the likelihood that he showed up drunk/high is pretty good. I imagine the Browns are not going to broadcast what Kabot wrote as "he wasn't himself" and "they felt his sobriety was in question". If Gordon was just drunk he will play again. If he was high then we will find out about it. Either way, whoever, if anyone picks him up, he becomes someone else's headache. I wouldn't take a chance on him.

Tom at this point- it's not frustration- Gordon has frustrated us often enough. I my corner- it's disappointment that a guy with all the talent in the world didn't have enough discipline to use it. It would be so Browns for him to go on to another team and have a stellar career. Dorsey and Hue finally just ran out of patience- and the rest of us too.

Along the way, I was condemning the NFL for what I thought was unfair punishment. Rather than mingle adjectives and feelings, my position is what I hope the organizations' is; It doesn't matter what happens in Gordon's future, we need to put him in our past. He needs to be gone. There are too many good players and positive energies with this team now to bee flucking around with this idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
