I want to talk about Cleveland fans and media for a second,
about their expectations, their feeling of entitlement, and their over
reactions.
I know I’m not going to make
any friends with this but let’s face it, only about 10 people will read it
anyways and none of them even like me.
Sports talk radio and social media outlets have become
almost unbearable lately.
I will start by saying that I, just like 100% of Cleveland
fans am tired of the losing. I want a
winner just as much as the next guy but what role do I play in making that
happen? None really, all that I can do
as a fan is support my team and show up on game day to back the product on the
field.
For starters, the allegations going around about the Browns “tanking”
it this season are absolutely absurd. No
Player, Coach, GM, President, or Owner would lose an entire season on purpose or
set themselves up to do so. The fact
that this type of garbage comes out of people’s mouths shows their true
ignorance. Chud is starting the best
players on his roster, Banner didn’t purposely draft garbage, and the players
aren’t taking plays off.
You’ve got guys in the media like Kiley and Booms running
their mouths about stuff they have no idea about. Think about it, they liked Colt McCoy for
Christ sake. The Owner, the Coach, the President,
and the GM don’t need to explain SHIT to you.
Do your job and let them do theirs, I don’t care if you don’t agree with
what they are doing or even if you like it.
Let’s face it, Joe Banner and Mike Lombardi have forgotten more about
football than guy’s like this will ever know.
You suck at your job, but I’m not going to tell you how to do it
because I’m not a radio guy, my face is too pretty for radio. If i don't like it, I just don’t listen and I’d advise you to do
the same. If you don’t like the product,
don’t watch the games. It’s not like you
know what you’re watching anyways. Oh, and
please do yourselves a favor, the next time you get Joe Banner on your show, don’t ask
him about hotdogs. It’s a sad day when
MKC makes you look like fools.
The fans have got to stop over reacting on Mondays. Already, we need to fire Norv, Lombardi and
Banner after only 2 games. This is why we are losers, it is shit like this.
It makes me laugh to see all the people calling for Greg
Little to get cut because he rolled a stop sign. Yes, I know his license is suspended but you
want to kick him off the team because he’s stupid? Right.
The funny thing is, I see the same people saying they can’t wait for Josh
Gordon to come back next week, you know, the guy that is suspended for violating
the substance abuse policy.
Greg Little has had problems catching the ball, Weeden can’t
throw it, Oneil Cousins is garbage, and Trent Richardson can’t find the
hole. But building your team with scrub
free agents 2 or 3 weeks into the season isn’t going to make you a playoff caliber
team. At some point ignorant fans need
to realize this. Players like T.O.,
Beanie Wells and Chad Johnson aren’t on teams for a reason.
And, I’ve had it with the “I’m done with this team” crap, it’s
old. Move on, you don't know better than Chud about when players should be on or off the field. Just because Trent Richardson is your favorite player doesn't mean he is a 3 down back and Josh Cooper isn't better than Devon Bess so forget about that too.
It seems like Cleveland fans and Cleveland media just want
to whine. If Joe Banner comes on the
radio, he talks too much. If Joe Banner
isn’t available for a month, he doesn’t back his product. If Brandon Weeden starts, he shouldn’t be
given the job. If Brandon Weeden sits,
he’s the best QB on the team. If Jimmy
Haslam gets pissed off when his team loses, he’s a crazy Owner. If Jimmy Haslam smiles when his team is
losing, he doesn’t care about his team.
I could go on forever but…..
At the end of the day you’ve still got the second lowest
ticket and concession prices in the league so quit your complaining and go root
for your team or buy a trailer and start rooting for the Steelers like your mom
did 10 years ago. Get your shit together Cleveland people. It’s bad enough that our teams suck, don’t
add on to the embarrassment by being dumb, whiny bitches.
