We’ve seen a lot of bad looks from Johnny Manziel – but last night was his worst.
What’s worse than rapping into a money phone, holding a rolled up dollar bill in a bathroom, and kicking it in the DJ booth during a bye week after you promised to stay quiet? Sitting on the bench on national television, even after the starter gets hurt.
Really, how did that taste, John? Tight, back and forth, all night. As exciting as a Browns game we will ever get. The stage is set: Josh McCown goes down… It’s Johnny Time!!! No it’s not.
Mike Pettine doesn’t even let him get off the bench. So the dude can get past the velvet rope into VIP, but he can’t even get on the field on Monday Night.
Hope that club run was worth it. Hope that champagne was real cold and that DJ was killing it. Because the Browns fans were CHANTING Manziel’s name to get him in the game… and his Coach wouldn’t even look at him.
And by the way – the guy who did get in, balled up. You really think Football would have come in cold and done as well as Austin Davis did? No you don’t.
And it doesn’t matter because we’ll never know. Because you know what’s even more embarrassing for the Browns than getting that kick blocked? That their first round draft pick spent the night in “timeout” rocking a parka.
That’s the game he was supposed to start, on national TV, against your arch enemy- and he didn’t even see a snap.
I didn’t think it could happen – but John found a worse look than mounting a swan in Vegas… Riding the pine in prime time.
