Good night, Mr. Lewis. Shame you couldn’t go out on a high note.

Yeah, NFL players have it sooooo easy. I’ll bet you don’t wish that you’ll feel like an 80-year-old when you’re 35.

You may call it crying, but I think Lewis’ point is that the players are worn out and beat up before they even start the game. Obviously this puts the team at a considerable competitive disadvantage. It could be he is being “weak and soft,” or it could be he is talking common sense.

Who else got hurt? Last player I heard about was LB Barton.Lewis is wrong for the way he wen’t about it.He is a leader on this team if he has a issue he should have taken it to Mangini not the press.

This looks like he is crying about 3 hr practice and when he says “It is not my job to tell him this” then what is his job as a team leader? Because it sure as hell is not leading by example.

Some might not like Mangini but when your team miss block,drop balls,fumble balls and miss tackles only way to get better is to work at. If that means 3 hrs a day then so be it.

The problem with the fatigue on gameday argument is that the two things most strongly linked to fatigue are injuries and penalties. Fatigue affects the mind and decision making. I just don’t see it, except with DA’s turnovers.

It’s worth noting the writer did not back up the statements with any facts. A little bit of info on how the fatigue shows itself on gameday would be nice, because I have a huge list of items that contribute to a 1-7 record. And lack of talent is at the top of the chart.

On his way out the door, no less.

He signed a three year 17 million $ contract prior to the 2008 season.
That averages out to 5.666.666 dollars and 67 cents per year.
And for 48 games, assuming we don´t make the playoffs, that´s 354.166 dollars and 67 cents per game. 355.000 dollars per game! Considering what houses cost nowadays he could have built an entire posh neighborhood at that rate. A neighborhood to put people in who oppose Eric Mangini, so he can´t bench their landlord.
I´m being a dork here, but I´m saying that there are motivating factors, for what these professionals do and say sometimes.

according to some they just play Madden football

Captain Stutterstep isn’t worth a damn these days.

I would agree that he has the right to voice his complaints, but he should go to the coach first, then if nothing resolved talk to the media. He needs to handle it within the locker room. The Browns are already being scrutinized without one of the captains sturring up more crap.

Sure, he has the right to bitch. He also has the right to be labeled a stupid malcontent when he does it this way, midseason, just before his retirement, and straight to the press.

’’doesn’t complain’’

really?

The love for Lewis is coming from Ray Lewis. Although he has not produced this year he still has skills and can scare defenses so much so that they still need to game plan him. He might have put up better numbers this season if the team wouldn’t be down and they had to throw the ball to get back in the game.

Your headline should read "No Love for Screw Lewis."

Fixed.
