I'm not sure why it doesn't seem different to you to report an injury as a fact or writing the article as stating you caught a break because another team had an injury.

I clearly noted that the link I used didn't call it a break. That isn't different enough for you? I also did not scour the internet looking for Steelers' columnists.

I don't see the point in complaining about it. It IS a break for the Browns. Injuries are part of the game.

No, of course not. I referenced a particular writer. I didn't say anything about every Brown report ever. Is Cabot your mother or something?

Just didn't see any reason for outrage. I could care less about Browns' beat writers or the Browns themselves.

Outrage? Sounds like you are infusing drama where there is none. I said it was a shitty insensitive headline and it was. I was done with the topic and didn't think of it again until you commented. Not sure where you get outrage and why are you even commenting on it in the first place then if you could care less?

Discussion board, I was responding to your concern, not the Browns.

Sometimes writers post something unintentionally insensitive. Other times they have to slant things in a way that's relevant for their audience. Other times it gets re-reported with a different slant. I was going to compare this to...nah, I don't need the grief.

The Jets D would need to be the 85 Bears or 00 Ravens for them to have a shot and they can never be that today's NFL.

I love the fact that this lady is trying to reason with the guy. What outcome is she expecting exactly? :pound:
I love the fact that he’s like 13 years old and still acting this way haha.

Jared Goff is on the verge of making NFL history and he could do it as soon as this weekend. If the Lions quarterback attempts 44 passes on Sunday against the Seahawks and doesn't throw an interception, he'll set the NFL record for most pass attempts without throwing a pick.

Like most NFL QBs with a good O-line, good targets and things working on schedule. Goff has the ability and arm talent. His struggles have been when he's forced to think on his feet but even that has been improved since getting away from L.A. and all the pressure of the first overall pick. Going to Detroit is probably the best thing that ever happened to him.
