I Retract the Manziel Stuff

I won't question the Browns' collective decision to bench Johnny Manziel after he was caught partying again...

However, it's a political move.  Kenny Stabler chain-smoked and drank like a fish.  He's just the most prominent star quarterback.  Brett Favre comes in second, but he came later, so he had to fix himself.  This was fairly common.

Josh Gordon's last suspension was for having a few drinks on a plane after the season was over.  It's just ridiculous.

I quit smoking by getting an electronic cigarette and "vaping".  Now, one restaurant chain after another is banning that!

Johnny might or might not have a problem.  Some people never get addicted to alcohol.  Are any of you young people aware of that, or have they brainwashed you?

I'm fine with Josh McCown.  I'm just disappointed that Manziel won't get his opportunity to prove what I'm pretty sure he would have proved.

Now, he has to prove he can not enjoy a beer for a long, long time.  Political correctness is like a plastic bag over your head.  It's suffocating all of us.  It's taking our freedom away. 

It's like cancer.  It never stops.  It's not enough that Johnny quits partying all the time, no.  No, he has to quit partying ever, including one freaking night on his bye week!

I'm confident that Josh Gordon will return next season, but not that he'll be perfect enough to avoid another suspension.

He might take an alleve for a headache or something.  He might test positive for eating a McDonald's hamburger with poppy seeds on it.  

I'm suffocating just talking about this.  I feel like the only sane person in America.  I can't believe you all just accept this crap.

I guess they had to do this.  As it was, women's groups had him convicted and sentenced to castration for preventing his nutty girlfriend from jumping out of his car.  They probably knew what was coming off the TMZ video too, and got ahead of it...for political reasons.

But "old video"?  Ok they were angry too.

What now?  I don't know.  Tony Grossi will look like a genius, since the Browns are more likely now to draft another quarterback in the first round.

Tony thinks it's because Johnny will always suck, which is wrong.  But now, he might get a couple starts, if that.  His status will be unresolved.

He might show enough to be part of a draft day trade, or else have to compete with the new guy (behind McCown).

Oh well.  Unfortunately, they'll probably stomp the Ravens.  They'll probably win a couple more games too.

That's how it works here.  You win just enough to screw yourself out of a franchise quarterback.

McCown shouldn't really start.  He's not fully healed, and is libel to get hurt again, worse.

I suppose that makes winning less likely, except that Mike and company might decide it's politically expedient to decide Manziel has been sufficiently chastised after two games or so...

It's just disgusting.  Land of the free, home of the brave hahaha
