Good find, X. I like these 2 posts concerning Jim Brown's oral diarrhea:
"You can spout all you want about 'facts' and you can stroke your ego by thinking you know oh so much more about football than anyone else...or you can get your head out of your ass and realize that your opinion is worth what I paid for it. Nothing. Just the same as mine."
He was a great back and a Browns legend. I'll never take anything away from his accomplishments. He's an icon for this franchise and I think I speak for most Browns fans when I say we appreciate all he did for the organization.
Unfortunately, since his heyday, he has shown his ass on more than a few occasions. He's been a drunk, a wife beater, a racist and a narcissist.... He's not shy about criticizing other running backs. He criticized Franco Harris too. and when Harris was on the verge of breaking his rushing record, Brown contemplated coming out of retirement simply to protect his record. He's an absurd human being.
And if all that wasn't enough, he is so far removed from the modern era of football that he can't possibly know whether Trent Richardson (or any other back for that matter) is going to be any good. When Brown was playing, the average size of a linebacker was 5'11" 190 lbs. and ran a 6.2 40... Now they are 6'3" 240 lbs. and run a 4.7 40 or better.
So do us all a favor Jim and shut your piehole.
