First Item Up For Bid, Bob

Ok, now let me start my ranting on something that has been making me sore for a bit of time now, and that is the Cleveland Browns. Now, last year, they use the high draft pick they got because they sucked the year before, and picked Kellen Winslow from Miami. The same Kellen Winslow who said that the 2002 NATIONAL CHAMPION OHIO STATE BUCKEYES would be too slow for Miami in the Fiesta Bowl, just like in the '01 title game when Miami trounced Nebraska. Way to make a prediction, Kellen! Oh, and of course, Winslow is apparently "a f*cking soldier" or so he says in a 2003 post game interview. What a prick. Plus, he has contract issues, wanting too much money, so he misses the start of minicamp. Then, he lets himself get injured in the second game of the season, and the Browns try to ease the steam off of the horrible season by saying that half of the offense was built around Winslow. What a bunch of liars! If you even try to make a rookie the center of your offense, you're destined to get burned anyway. Looks like Butch Davis learned that lesson when his ass was kicked out the door. Okay, and now, to top the whole thing off, Winslow goes against the stipulations in his contract and rides a motorcycle, and of course, he gets into an accident, and is now sitting in a hospital bed with internal injuries, chest pain, and a concern from the Browns' training staff with his right knee. I hope the team takes back the bonus money and salary he is no longer entitled to since he broke the terms of his contract. Come on, Winslow didn't even have a license or learner's permit for the motorcycle! So, not only is he ignorant, he's breaking the law too. But I guess that's what you can expect from players who come from the University of Miami. Just ask Ray Lewis.

I'm only half done now.

So I wasn't happy with that pick in last year's NFL Draft. And since it just popped into my head, I'm still pissed that the Browns did not take one of the FOURTEEN BUCKEYES picked in the draft last year. Not one. FOURTEEN BUCKEYES picked in one draft. A record. But not good enough for the Browns. In fact, the Browns have had only two Buckeyes on the team since '99, and Chris Spielman got a career ending injury in the preseason! Darnell Sanders is the only Buckeye to play for the Browns in a regular season game since they came back in '99.

That's why I pick the best player ever to play for the old Browns or new: Tom Tupa, Punter.

I thought that would be the worst of it, because things were looking up. Romeo Crennel was brought in to coach and turn the team around, and Phil Savage was hired as GM, having one championship team under his belt already.

But things got a whole lot worse.

Romeo Crennel, a defensive minded guy, with serious needs on defense, takes the No. 3 pick and drafts Braylon f*cking Edwards. F*cking scUM. I was in agony all day that saturday. Ok, so the Browns picked the player who they and many other teams thought was the biggest talent in the draft. Well, first off, Crennel apparently forgot what state he is in and what University is two and a half hours south of him. What a scUMbag. And my hatred for ESPN got hotter when all throughout the draft they glorified Braylon in his effort against Michigan State, which to ESPN is apparently a bigger rivalry than THE GAME. What-friggin-ever. So Edwards racks up close to 200 yards recieving and a pair of touchdowns. Wow, Braylon, I guess it must be really hard to catch a ball over a secondary with player six inches shorter than you. Really tough, Braylon. Tell the people about your dismal performance against The Ohio State University. Tell the people how you couldn't perform against a REAL secondary. And no, Texas did not have a REAL secondary. Tell the people how you only beat The Ohio State University ONCE in your college career, and how you cried after you came into the Horseshoe and lost back in November.

Tell them all Braylon. Tell the truth ESPN. Tell me why you stooped to a new low, Cleveland Browns.

For what it's worth, I'm not gonna watch the Browns unless Edwards gets 1,000 recieving yards or gets injured. You all know who I'd cut first if I was GM for one day.

This year, I'm all about J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS! and the Minnesota Vikings. Those two teams got the biggest steals of the draft, and I bet Nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge sets a scoring record for the Jets.

Man, I'm both tired and riled at the same time...
