"The fans are ruthless and don't deserve a winner. I will never forget getting cheered when I was injured. I know at times I wasn't great. I hope and pray I'm playing when my team comes to town and (we) roll them."
Well good luck with that Lurch.
For a man/professional athlete who never showed any amount of emotion on or off the field, he sure pulled out a drug induced Corey Haim today. (Also, is it just me or did it seem that Lurch was always on horse tranquilizers?)
Lurch, if you happen to read this, please ask your wife to assist you in reading this and explain to you what I am about to lay out for you both......
You would never have come to Cleveland if not for former Browns GM Phil Savage.
You wanna lay blame, blame Savage for bringing your sorry inaccurate throwing ass to Cleveland.
You wanna live in the past and bask in the glory in what was your 2007 campaign, go find a time machine or a hot tube and relive it. And remember you still had 19 INT's that year. Its one thing to be a Brett Favre, but Favre wins games.
You are so bad that Charlie "Future Arena League Star" Frye beat you out for a starting gig.
Your worst decision ever was playing in the Pro Bowl. Why? Because even when defense isn't played you still couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.
Your speeches are nearly as stupefying as Tim Couch's:
"I've been here going on four years now and laid it on the line for this team and city," Couch said. "For them to turn on me and boo me in my home stadium is a joke. I've worked my butt off here and it's hard to take, man."
Here's an idea for you both.....The majority of players at the QB position want to be there, they want the ball, the want the cheerleaders (and in some cases Playmate models), they want the big money, they want the fame, they want the endorsements, they want the spotlight. But with the good also comes the bad.
What always seems lost in the mind of a young sports professional is that when your play sucks, we (the fans) are expected to look the other way.
I DON'T SPEND MONEY TO GO TO THE GAMES TO STARE OUT OF THE STADIUM TO LOOK AT THE LAKE FOR 3 HOURS.
You must accept the fact that on your best days you are a marginal quarterback. Yes, the talent that surrounded you was sub-par, but your talent was more stagnate than a swamp in Georgia in the middle of summer.
Finally your apology earlier today from your little hissy fit was about as lame and see through as I may have ever seen. Your agents attempt to put out the fire, ended being a misfire. Enjoy your permanent position as placeholder for PAT's in either Seattle or Arizona.
When you pull this "why don't you love me" bullsh*t, at least man up and do it in front of a camera and start the waterworks instead of Tweeting about it. Now go back home to Scappoose and live with your family of Sasquatches.
