awesome possum Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 I've read other reports about how much of a jackass he is in public, like screaming at women and kids for taking his picture before he could pose. Sounds like a genuine case of spoiled entitled assholitis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordfish Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Yeah, it's a pretty well known fact around the city that he's a total douchecanoe.Good story about him and Arnold Palmer floating around too, but i don't know if it's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaime L Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Yes indeed. The city cries out for a Tebow ;)Just kidding... I think.Well the good thing about Tebow is he won't get accused of rape every offseason. Infact you won't even have to worry about him getting accused of having sex.

Infact you won't even have to worry about him getting accused of having sex.I don't know...Tiger Woods, while not a "bible guy" (if you will) certainly had one of those squeaky clean images that made you think he'd never go wrong...how'd that work out for him? You know Tebow's got some sort of dark dark secret just waiting to come out... :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swordfish Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Derek Anderson on Browns fans....."The fans are ruthless and don't deserve a winner ... I will never forget getting cheered when I was injured. I know at times I wasn't great. I hope and pray I'm playing when my team comes to town and (we) roll them."http://nfl.fanhouse.com/2010/03/09/derek-anderson-says-browns-fans-dont-deserve-a-winner/Awesome.

"Those of you who got to know me personally from covering the Browns over the past five years, know this was out of character for me. I wasn't taken out of context, but I was speaking out of frustration after my career with the Browns came to a close."I had some great times playing in Cleveland, especially during the 2007 season, and I met some great people and made many lifelong friends along the way," Anderson said Wednesday. "I'm looking forward to starting a new chapter in my life."http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4981767 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhom Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 "The fans are ruthless and don't deserve a winner ... I will never forget getting cheered when I was injured. I know at times I wasn't great. I hope and pray I'm playing when my team comes to town and (we) roll them."Turn the clock back to 2002 and nearly these exact words were uttered by Tim Couch. Fans cheered when he was taken off the field injured as well and he was widely lampooned as a "cry baby." Much as our discussion above revolved around a trend of bad choices for Ben Roethlisberger, I think at some point people need to look at fans and say the same thing. The fans of the current incarnation of the Browns franchise are developing a history of devouring their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then the Dog Pound could BBQ his ribs on a spit before a game and eat them while watching the Browns play the Ravens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrik the Unsmiling Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 It would set an interesting precedent and pretty much end my fears of the Yorks moving the 49ers to LA, so I'm very much in favor of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palin99999 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I'm OK with Derek being pissed that some fans cheered when he got injured. Those type of fans should not be allowed back, but he shouldn't lump all of us in this. Derek's time with the Browns was very much a roller-coaster ride. He had a phenomenal 2007, but everything since has been embarrassingly bad and he has always acted like nothing was his fault. The general consensus in Cleveland is that just because a minority of fans acted like assholes, the rest shouldn't be lumped in with them. Cleveland fans are incredibly loyal, but we expect our guys to give 100% and when we see a guy that doesn't care as much as we do we get very pissed at them. Look at a guy Zydrunas Ilgauskas, he's never been the most dominant player, but Cleveland fans have bounded with him intensely - all because we know he cares and is loyal to us. Tim Couch went through the same thing as Derek here, but he never insulted the entire fanbase. He said that he was very disappointed in those fans that cheered. Tim's actually been to several of the Browns games since he retired. It's just too bad that he was drafted to such a terrible team and was not given anytime to develop.Sorry for the rant. :commie: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
