Do Not Sell My Personal Information
That throw really was sweet though — hit a speedster in stride deep.

This is me speculating, but I don't think it was planned. I really think this guy has anxiety and other issues, drugs and alcohol have always been the way to deal with it. This time around he was having issues again, recognized he was about to relapse, so he raised his hand.

I hope society can get to the point where an annual mental health checkup is just as normal and routine as a annual physical or doctors visit. Like KLove said, sometimes just talking to someone, getting things off your chest, can be very helpful. I hope that is what Flash needs, and the Browns get him into a weekly session if they haven't already. I'm really hoping he can get on the field for week 1.

Great post..

Honestly I can relate in many was with Gordon on all this.

Without going too far into detail, I suffer from addiction myself. It's a battle everyday. I'm actually in the middle of it right now. It's so difficult to just stop and do it alone. I've gone days and weeks without using shit, but it's only because I know I'll go right back to it. Rehab and talking about this kinda stuff is such a massive step in a positive way.. But you have to want it, 110% for you to get better.

From the outside looking in, you wouldn't understand. From the inside looking out, I couldn't make you either. That's generally how it goes, and I would assume most addicts feel. I know several others that do, anyway.

For Gordon, though.. His addiction doesn't run as deep as I would say mine, or others do. That's not to make light of it at all.. That's just to say he's lucky in a way.

Weed isn't like pain pills of heroin. It's not going to kill you with an overdose, and you don't need the drug in your system every 10 hours or so before you're going through the sickness. Which, I would like to describe it as being tortured by Lucifer himself. Because it's hell.

Thankfully, though Josh isn't battling those demons. He's definitely battling his own, so again, it shouldn't be made light. You have to take it seriously, because the road goes beyond what he's doing - and it gets darker and darker.

I don't know him personally, but my brothers girlfriends friend has a kid by Josh. It's always been a dream to somehow meet my favorite player.. But I would never press the situation. If it happens it happens. With that said, I'm proud of him for realizing he needed help before he lost control - and he's managing it and fighting back to stay in control.

Definitely something great to tell people that look up to him. I know it's something I would look at and try to strive to do better.

So for anyone trashing him and whatnot.. It says a lot about you as a person.
 
Rewatching the OU-UGA game and noticing Nick Chubb.

I see a very physical runner that likes to go downhill, while his teammate Michel seems more like a speed dude.

I kinda like the idea of a guy like Chubb is he's as advertised because damn.
 
I’ll be interested to see the offensive line unit combination(s) in the early-goings — more specifically Coleman’s (OL) development as it’ll be key if Corbett struggles with his reps at tackle.

Ehhh....I hope Chubb pans out, but watch Chubb against Alabama. He was awful. Michel was amazing against Bama and OU. Chubb has great size, but really needs to get his momentum going downhill to make plays. Michel's vision is pretty elite.

Just being honest, I wasn't a big fan of the Chubb pick. I think he excelled greatly in a system where his offensive line was elite and college defenders just aren't in the same hemisphere as an NFL defensive line. I hope I eat my words.....I just know what I saw against legit front 4's in college, and I always thought Michel was the MUCH BETTER back.

Callaway is much more physical than Desean though. I'm actually not a big fan of that comparison. Callaway is an athletic freak but physical after the catch. IMO, more of a Steve Smith mold than a Desean Jackson mold. Callaway has very good speed, but what makes him special is his ability to get physical during the route tree and after the catch when he can use his explosion.
 
Our media is downright embarrassing.

Worse than this was fucking Mary Kay spamming every single player about Josh Gordon.

How about you fuck right off and leave the man who’s trying to get healthy alone?

Players dismissed the questions with a professional “we’re behind Josh and he can take all the time he needs” but she wouldn’t shut the fuck up about it. Infuriating.
 
It’s not that Mary Kay wouldnt stop talking about Gordon, but it’s that she’s so unapologetically bad at it.

Like, the public line on Gordon has been repeated for days. Nobody is going to give you a public quote on him that tells you anything you don’t already know.


A real reporter would be trying to get off the record stuff on background trying to put a better story together.

There are sooo many good reporters out there covering the NFL, or pro sports in general. I’ve been in this world, at a relatively high level.

Cleveland’s football reporting is the worst I’ve ever seen. It’s the perfect compliment to the franchise.
