Do 2 weeks worth of work…and you get a paycheck. Do your WORK, plus show extra effort, you might get a BONUS.

If you truly want to see HUSTLE in sports….pay athletes for how well they do in each game. This would encourage REAL ATHLETES to “Practice More”…..attend more Team Meetings…..work on TEAM WORK more.

But if you keep thinking that you can pay somebody 2 - 3 years in advance…and then hope that they have your best interests at heart….then you must work for the Government.

Or ENRON.

So now Brady will have Edwards, Stallworth and Winslow to throw to….Listen to what Quinn said today:

Asked Saturday about his mindset heading into camp, Quinn said it’s “just competing and trying to take this team to the playoffs. I think it’s something we weren’t able to do last year. I want to try to take over the starting job and lead for our team.”

Speaking before an appearance at the Greater Cleveland Auto Show at the I-X Center, Quinn mentioned at least four times that he plans to lead the Browns next season.

“You have to compete for your job,” said Crennel. “That’s the same at the quarterback spot. Both of those guys are going to compete and then we’ll see who gives us the best chance. We’ve always done it that way and that’s what we’re going to do.

Moooooooo

Translation

Derek Anderson is our QB, Now Leave Me Alone im on my way to the Old Country Buffett.

It starts at the top. Not even necessarily with the coaches, but with management that says “We’re paying this guy shitloads of money, and so he’s gotta play.” I’ve seen far too many good players get pushed aside because someone else got more money.

We can talk about Chicago for Quinn, but they have their own teflon guy in Rex Grossman. (How many times does he have to suck before they stop putting him into the game? Orton leads the team better, even if Grossman has the better skills.). Better options are teams who really have no QB to speak of, nor any QB-in-waiting. Teams like Atlanta and Miami.

Either that, or Quinn’s agent better be a legendary negotiator and get him a sweet deal to be the Browns backup, and hope that Anderson is just a fat d-lineman away from a career ending blown knee.

A real NT!
