That all sounds like great logic, but you're missing the actual catalyst. Dude just ignored a woman and her paternity case for two years, gets a warrant for his arrest and has to supply his DNA. The next week we learn that Josh Gordon is now a father. A few days after that, maybe even that same day, he's back in rehab. After he entered rehab we started hearing that he got suspended again.

There are some Ifs ... But IF he is reinstated, and IF he overcomes he addiction and stays clean, and IF he returns to the form he was when he lead the NFL in receiving, then a lot of posters that have buried Josh will be back on his bandwagon and hiding the posts about his demise ... JMHO

If he doesn't, then it is no different that where we are now..... there is no down side.

I agree w/what you are saying, but Pastor is calling out posters for doubting Josh Gordon.

This in a nutshell. And unlike previous Browns organizations, it wouldn't be a distraction if he falls flat on his face like he did last year.
The more things change the more they stay the same.

look I am a Browns fan have been since 1965, I love this team and don't hate anybody, if I have hurt anyone I apologize, all I am doing is giving my opinion on the team I love, I don't know everything, If I did I would be working in an NFL front office, so please forgive me if I have said anything to offend anyone, we are all hoping this team gets better and we won't always agree on how they should ... Peace and Love in Jesus Name

Seriously? No, he was making a statement regarding those that "have buried Josh". There is a difference; subtle perhaps, but a difference nonetheless. Hell, I doubt Josh - but I have hope for him and see the value in continuing to keep him around. It's all up to him; he just needs to realize that and take it to heart.

Seriously? Apparently we're having issues with some understanding the difference.
At DT, context and meaning are a scarecrow kicking at moving goalposts.

It's not a win win. We aren't better off with JG. We weren't better off for having JG before and we won't be better off having him again. He has had his chances to make it here. He's lied to us all. He's had his wake up call before. He's had time to make this a win win but chooses to other road. He's failed every time. He's done playing for the Browns. It's all over but the paperwork for Flash here.

I'll worry about it when a druggie can give up his drugs. Just don't ask me to hold my breath. When a guy would rather smoke pot than earn 10s of millions of dollars then he deserves all the misery his choices lead him to. Because pot is not addictive, right?!
You can't fix stupid but you can destroy ignorance. When you destroy ignorance you remove the justifications for evil. If you want to destroy evil then educate our people. Hate is a tool of the stupid to deal with what they can't understand.

Thanks Josh for the spiritual, now get better and pass your tests. Get ready to play so we can trade you to some schmuck who believes in you. I do not, Fool us once, Fool us twice, well everyone knows that story.

So Josh Gordon posted a pic of him working out at UF's stadium. So Ballpeen, as one of the more reasonable posters on here, I'm going to need you to drive down there and explain to JG the financial impact of his suspension, in a hope that he will get his crap together.

He can't be trusted, but a healthy Gordon, a clean and sober Gordon, can make any team better. ANY! I honestly don't think we need to worry about it, I doubt he stays clean so there is no decision to make.

Utter and total stupidity time after time after time is pretty easy to remember.
Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

I agree 100%, its like always wanting that original red ryder bb gun for Christmas only to Recieve a pair of socks in a big box.. Major let down. Until you get your hands on the red ryder dont count your bb's.
