Cleveland Browns: The NFL Standard of Dysfunction



Yesterday the Cleveland Browns traded running back Terrance West to the Tennessee Titans for a conditional 7th round draft pick...West, in his rookie season, was the Browns leading rusher last year...The Browns had traded up to pick West in the 3rd round...And poof, he's suddenly no good, and can only garner a 7th round pick...I find this truly ridiculous...

More ridiculous is the standard Cleveland smear campaign smear campaign that happens every time a Cleveland sports team makes a move like this...Cleveland Plain Dealer, Browns shill, Mary Kay Cabot wrote, "the Browns had grown weary of West’s Incosistency the field and immaturity off the field."

The media smear continued with comments like, “maturity issues,” and “wasn’t well-liked by some in Berea” and “not exhibiting the professionalism the Browns were seeking.”

The Browns seeking professionalism is one of the funniest things I read...This is the organization who's GM (Ray Farmer) is suspended right now by the NFL, for texted down to the sideline during games, about what players should be played, and what plays to call...This is the organization who's owner had his business raided by the FBI...This organization wanting professionalism is the same group that drafted Johnny Manziel and let him act like a fuck-tard all last year...

This is alaso the organization that Suspended their Offensive Line Coach, Andy Moeller Monday, indefinately, with a very vague press release...

"Andy was involved in an incident, involving allegations that we take very seriously. We have followed our internal protocol, determining that right now it is best for the team and for Andy to take time away from the organization to focus on his personal matters. We are going to respect the process of investigation on this personal matter and will have no further comment at this time."


Later in the day Pat McManamon from ESPN.com reported, 

"A woman called Berea police over the weekend, alleging Moeller had assaulted her, the sources said. The woman was a guest of Moeller's from Maryland.
By the time police arrived, the woman was unsure about pressing charges.
However, police were required to file a report, which was presented to the city prosecutor. He will determine whether charges will be filed. Because the alleged assault was not of a live-in partner or spouse, it was classified as assault and not domestic assault."

Seems like the maturity issues, and lack of professionalism problems have consistently stemmed from the fuck-tards above....

As for the players that were drafted with Terrance West in 2014 by the Browns...2 are starters...G- Joel Bitinio (2nd round) and LB- Chris Kirksey (3rd round)...And the two first round picks, CB- Justin Gilbert and QB- Johnny Manziel have contributed little, and don't look like they're going to contribute much...

You can say whatever you want about that mess known as the Washington Redskins, but there has been no NFL organization that has shown such a consistent and high level of dysfunction as the Cleveland Browns...
I'm so glad I washed my hands of this idiot team and their horrible fucking uniforms!


PS: I hope West lights it up for the Titans!

Illinois Fires Head Football Coach




A week before the start of the college football season, Illinois Athletic Director Mike Thomas announced the firing of head football coach Tim Beckman, after a clearly long investigation...Thomas saying, "The preliminary information external reviewers shared with me does not reflect our values or our commitment to the welfare of our student-athletes, and I've chosen to act accordingly. During the review, we have asked people not to rush to judgment, but I now have enough information to make this decision in assessing the status and direction of the football program."

Beckman has been under investigation since allegations came out about him pressuring offensive lineman Simon Cvijanovic to play while injured, and that he misled Cvijanovic about the severity of his injuries...

The investigation not only showed Beckman had influenced medical decisions , but also threatened to withdraw scholarships from players during their senior year, after they had finished the football season...

Thomas added, "Both of those findings are unsettling violations of University policy and practice and do not reflect the culture that we wish to create in athletic programs for our young people. I expect my coaches to protect players and foster their success on and off the field."

After finding out Beckman had been fired, Simon Cvijanovic told the Associated Press, "All I can say right now is I think it's a step in the right direction. It seems like there's more than just Beckman that needs to be held accountable."

Former Illinois defensive tackle, and current Tampa Bay Buccaneer, Akeem Spence said via Twitter,  "Illinois just got better !!!#illini"

Offensive Coordinator Bill Cubit will be the interim head coach for this season...

Beckman will not be getting the $3.1 million left on his contract, nor will he be getting $743,000 if he were to be bought out...In 3 season at Illinois he had a 12-25 record and 1 bowl appearance...

Based on what seems to be happening at Illinois...And the fact that Beckman is a loser, with a losing team, I'm totally in agreement with giving this TOOL his walking papers...But considering Cvijanovic came forward with his claims in May, I would have thought a place of higher-learning would have setup a timetable for their investigation, with a deadline...Because firing your head football coach a week before their sorry asses get rolled by little Kent State makes you look like there is still a shit-load of dysfunction going on there!
