Crabcake Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Saints will cut Brandon Browner when the new league year starts. If the Ravens clear some cap room, he might just be a perfect fit: he's a veteran corner that can probably at this point be a pretty good No. 2 or No. 3 corner in the NFL. What do the Ravens need? A No. 2 or No. 3 corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayMac Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 As much as I hate Skip, he is just playing a part at this point of his career. He sold his soul to the devil to be a TV personality. That's why most the ESPN personalities are frauds. It's kind of like not liking an actor because of the part he plays in a movie or show. With this being said, I cannot stand the man.

BBTV Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Maybe by doing it during the SB he was actually attracting less attention to himself since most of the world was focusing on the game? Maybe he didn't want a moment, so this was the best way to do it. Either way, that's the absolute perfect tweet. Love the "peace" emoji.

Gothamite Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I can't believe he thought there would be less focus on football during the Super Bowl.

Burying it? When every single sports journalist in the country is looking for another NFL story to write? Of course we can follow parallel stories. That's not the point. The point is that he's trying to steal a little focus from the men who had earned the right to play in the biggest game. At least, that's a reasonable interpretation of his action. No biggie, just a bush move. They happen. I just thought him better than that. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

At least, that's a reasonable interpretation of his action. No biggie, just a bush move. They happen. I just thought him better than that. I'm thinking the exact opposite of your "reasonable" interpretation of his action. He was absolutely burying it. If he was trying to get maximum exposure he wouldn't do it as the game was happening. He'd Brett Farve it, drag it out for weeks, hold a press conference, cry, etc. Doing it during the Super Bowl insures it won't be big news at the moment. He strikes me as the type of the guy who wouldn't pull a calculated move like that to "Steal glory" or any such nonsense. Of course, there's no rule that says he has to do or say anything publicly. He could just not show up for training camp and have his agent let the team know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFGiants58 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 On 2/5/2016 at 9:26 AM, McCarthy said: During his senior year in college I compared [Manziel] to Brian Bosworth. Loud mouth, self-promoter, arrogant beyond belief, but otherwise decent college football player. That comparison worked for a while, but now he's full-on Ryan Leaf. Just doesn't understand the game at the professional level, has severe substance abuse problems, and a terrible stubborn attitude. I've always loved when entitled :censored:s get their deserved comeuppance and I loved both times the Bengals humiliated him, but I'm taking no joy in this now. He's got real problems. Whelp, now we have more visceral details of what happened between Manziel and his girlfriend. This may be Manziel's end in the NFL.

TheOldRoman Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Looking at ESPN's front page, the primary story is on the Super Bowl - specifically Cam Newton's struggles. The stories featured at the top are Riley Cooper being released, Delmon Young being a thug again, Johnny Manziel being a thug again, college basketball rankings, the Knicks firing their coach, and LeSean McCoy. You have to scroll down past literally a dozen videos and other stories, plus stories on the side (what an awful website), before you get to any mention of Lynch. He didn't steal attention from anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
See Red Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Yeah I kind of thought he announced it when he did specifically so it would be buried. He doesn't appear to enjoy the attention, so why would he make an effort to steal it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
