    The whole alcohol thing and triggering a year is a load of BS. Fucking alcohol?


    but how many times can a person be 'duped'? Just .01 over the legal limit for DUI. Second hand smoke triggered positive test. Didnt check if the codeine his Dr prescribed was against the NFL rules, had 2 beers and 2 drinks on the flight.....

    Something has to give he has to realize he needs to take care of business and stop making excuses of not knowing, being in the wrong place...etc.

    As for criticizing Carter, STephen A, etc.....well, those guys have jobs to talk about the goings on in the NFL and when guys mess up.....they will drill them.

    This so called letter seems contrite but it will be his actions that determine if he truly means it.

    True, a la "Johnny Football" saying he would stay out of the party scene.

    As an alcoholic, I made many, many, many excuses and rationalization back in my drinking days. I was in complete denial of my problem and thought world had a personal vendetta against me.

    Now I don't know if Josh Gordon is an alcoholic or addict. I don't know him whatsoever.

    But I do know that those who are in the throws of addiction are very sick people. If that's the case here, I hope he comes to this realization so that he can get the help he needs. Football is inconsequential in comparison.

    That entire article was 1 giant rationalization. An awful lot of sympathy seeking from a guy trying to claim he doesn't want or need sympathy.

    Hey maybe Josh Gordon wouldn't have got random fucking tested if he wasn't posting all over instagram/twitter that he was going to vegas?

    Really don't have much to say, or I would. I don't get on here much anymore. I'll periodically glance at the Cavs & weight training thread but that's about it.

    So you're joining the doom and gloom iggy and his doom and gloom thread because you don't have anything to say?
  • shook_17
    Give me Kevin White all day. And I mean all day. I like the second pick with the OT. Build up that Oline. Sign suh In FA. Wouldn't be too bad. Build this team so if we do fail next year and end up with the first or second pick we can get out QB and the team is set up nicely.

    I made a couple of comments on there. I didn't know it was a "club or membership" where you had to "join."

    Wtf are you talking about lol

    I'm just curious why you would rather talk to iggy about the Browns instead of, you know, actual Browns fans on here?

    There's nothing to talk about right now until closer to the draft. Right now, the main Browns topics are a) the alcoholic QB with no work ethic, b) the pothead WR who cares more about hitting a bong than his career and c) an organization that jacked up ticket prices for a shitty on the field product. Not a lot of "positive" stuff to speak of, right now. Maybe closer to the draft.
  • Commander of Awesome
    FA, Haden being Special Olympics Ambassador, our great secondary, will we re-sign Skrine, etc.... Lot of topics to discuss BR.

    What kool aid? I don't think I ever said the Browns were on their way to the SB. LOL at "kool aid." The only kool aid out there is the doom and gloom. If anyone is drinking kool aid its you stopping so low that you are now following iqqys lead.

    Completely stretching a doom and gloom narrative to the point you're making stuff up? You've definitely hit IQQY level.

    Gordon hasn't failed a drug test in years. Last year he got screwed by one sample being barely over the lowest threshold in pro sports and the other sample below the threshold. You don't smoke pot and barely fail one sample while passing the other. You would easily fail both samples. As someone who helped in the drug testing of student-athletes last year, I know.

    So you continue to hammer on a false narrative to spread a doom and gloom attitude. If that's not IQQY, I don't know what is.

    Maybe we should re-name that thread the IQQY, FW, and BR "Doom and Gloom" thread where you can all bask in each other's negativity.
  • Commander of Awesome
    It's just BR's annual "woe is me, I don't post here much anymore" QQ fest. I honestly couldn't give a fuck less.

    So you are defending a guy, the best offensive weapon you have and one of the best in the league even though he screwed over that team once again? Fact is...he got busted. Cost the offense basically a whole season. Got busted again, maybe out next year.
    Yeah, this alcohol thing and the barely over the threshold sucks, but he put himself in that position and by his actions totally fucked the whole offense.
