To those that say "he did nothing wrong". For a 22 year old with money? Nope, but for a guy who's supposed to be the face of the franchise? Grow out of that stuff? I'm not so sure. If he's got a substance abuse problem, hanging out in bars is the wrong place to be. Damn, can't people see after the girlfriend incident, I would bet the ranch the Browns staff got with Manziel and laid out very strict guidelines as to what he could, and couldn't do? I've said a couple of times in this thread- the Browns know DAMN EXACTLY WELL why Johnny was in rehab. If he couldn't follow what he was supposed to do- well, he's potentially pissing his NFL career down the drain. It had to be a pretty serious violation of those conditions to get benched. On top of that, his actions make Pettine look like an idiot for having to change course.
How is Manziel supposed to be the face of the franchise? Hes been a backup for two years. And as far as the seriousness of the video,I don't see it. I really think it goes alot further than what we can see (Pettine/farmer issues). This is a very dysfunctional organization. We really needed to see if Manziel was able to be the "Face of the Franchise". But that wont happen now. So we start over.But,we all should be used to that by now.
