Sober Up Josh

You may have caught the news that Josh Cribbs, the Cleveland Browns punt returner is “unhappy” with his million dollar contract.  His agent J.R. Rickert, according to the Plain Dealer states that “Josh is starting to get a sense there’s no appreciation for him”.  Incidentally along with his current $6 million six year deal he received a $2 million signing bonus – we should all feel so disrespected!

These guys live in a complete fantasy world.  And…I am praying that the Browns don’t put up with it. 

Hey Josh…you signed a contract…live with it dude.  The Browns would have if you had gotten injured or turned out to be a sub-par player.

Josh…if you don’t want to play for a million a year I know a whole bunch of people who would be glad to run back a football every Sunday for your payday.  And…they would not complain, be grateful for a job and add value to the Browns organization.

Get a life Josh…just like the rest of us.  If you only read your press clippings it’s time to look at the other parts of the newspaper to see what is going on – young people dying for their country, a challenging economy, foreclosures, etc.  If we were you Josh, we would be kissing the ground that Randy Lerner walks on – you are leading a charmed life.

If your feelings get hurt because you want more than a million a year to play a game, then consider taking your football and go home.  That’s what poor sports do…they quit when things don’t go their way.
