Which is LITERALLY the only thing that matters.

If the "inmates" are the coaches and players on the actual team as opposed to armchair wanna be know it all tough guys on an internet message board or radio call in show....then I'm damn glad the inmates are running the asylum.

Root for the name on the front of the jersey NOT the name on the back. Get over the Johnny Nobody infatuation already.

Even if I wasn't a fan of this kid, I would be wanting to see him play great and to then have these same haters kissing his ass for the next decade.



With the extra baggage aside, do you really think Manziel is going to amount to much on the field? I have a couple of work buds that think this guy is going to be great and they hate the Browns. Am I missing something here? He can't even beat out old McCown.

IDK I just don't see what would be the point of keeping the guy. He's a distraction and he has done very little on the field and there's the fact that he can't get playing time from an journeyman QB that gives you no hope for the future.


The kid needs experience under center. He is gonna make plays to win you games thats all he did in college and we saw it against the Titans. Frankly, I believe with Johnny we are in 2nd place behind the Bengals by 1 game due to the loss against the jets in week 1. the other games, I believe we win with Manziel. McCown says the right things, does the right things but finds ways to lose. Johnny isnt gonna always look great but I believe he is similar to what we see with a Cam right now. Doenst have to look great but he finds ways to win.

Bret didnt read coverages well his first few years. He partied to much, was an addict and an alcoholic but u know what at the end of the day, he found ways to win.

If you want a priest then go to church on Sunday. If you want someone thats gonna win games then play the kid and let him grow with this team. We have thieves, sex addicts,wife beaters, child abusers, drug addicts, convicted felons, drug dealers and rapists all flourishing happily in the NFL but heaven forbid Manziel has a damn drink and argues with his girlfriend lol

If I was Manziel I would spend some of those Millions to hire investigators to search into the history of Mary Kay Cabot, Lacanfora, Pluto and post the findings all over the net for everyone to enjoy.

Really nothing has changed much as far as fans views. The vast majority who wanted us to draft Manziel want to see him play. Those who were against us drafting him and felt he would never amount to anything want us to move on.

As long as he stays with the girlfriend, he's going to keep being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

She's a party girl and that doesn't work for a guy coming out of rehab.

This statement is BS, and was used to drum up something that has nothing to do with anything. Why does race have to be brought up, even when it is not involved in the situation.

He is a rich white kid, so naturally in today's age of media, lets turn this into a black and white thing.

I don't care how these assinine writers are looking at the situation, but they are using conjecture to add to the story. One stated he was "beating" her. In this one the person who brought up race says their were "abrasions", plural. She had a mark on her arm from him pulling it.

People are questioning the policeman's judgement, as if they know he was wrong. He is trained to identify someone who is intoxicated, apparently he saw no justification. As for what happened, the girl changed her story at sometime, which makes her statemennts hard to take seriously.

He was not charged, and their is no definite proof of him hitting her. The person who saw all this stuff at a supposed 90 MPH, even said it looked like he was keeping her from exiting the car. The media is trying it's best to turn this into more than it was. If Goodell gets involved, and I was Johnny, I would definately file a suit against them for defamation.

I'm not trying to apologize for Johnnie's actions, but it is clear to me that they have a vendetta against this kid. If it was any other player, my feelings would be the same.

It sickens me that law enforcement is being looked at the way it is today. This cop did a good job of difusing a domestic quarrel and now he is being questioned by outsiders trying to make him look bad.

The hate for Manzeil is unbelievable, but that is what society is today.


I think this is an excellent post.
