In all seriousness, the Browns own the team, not the media, fans or players. i don't agree with all they say or do. I also try to see all sides even though I don't agree with players, coaches or the FO at times. I see no relevence of a 1st round pick bashing any NFL FO. To me, it is like yelling at the surgeon seconds prior to him cutting open my chest, it may headlines and draw attention, but the risk outweights the action so I praise the surgeon knowing he has total control.
I loved Chad the football player, but hated his off field antics. I see great players should talk on the football field and leave trash talking against the owners and FO to their agent. You may admire Stewart for speaking out, others like me now think he made an ass out of himself.
I certainly don't admire Stewart for his comments and I personally think they were stupid for a player that hasn't played a down in the NFL and had the worst production of any college drafted in the last 30 years. But it's not good show of the Bengals player relations to push a 1st rd pick to want to make comments like that. That was kind of my point the Bengals have a recent history of not treating players well or a way that the rest of the NFL would operate. You said they can tag him 2 more times essentially locking him up and taking away his leverage. No other teams would treat players like that and it certainly wouldn't do us any favors getting players to sign as FAs.
I also need to say I loved Chad's antics and I think he smack talked the right way. Being silly and alot of times it would be out of the media like mailing pepto to the upcoming DBs.
