Browns owner sends message to the players; Buy In or Get Out
The Cleveland Browns have been in the media more this year for dumb incidents caused by Johnny Manziel, Justin Gilbert and Josh Gordon than they have about their play.
Well their owner is done with having his players in the funny papers, and he sent this message.

“I think is the ultimate team game and I think a player who can’t show up for meetings, can’t make practice, can’t make weight lifting, disrespects himself,” Haslam said Sunday in the locker room at M&T Bank Stadium. “But I think more importantly, and I think this is what these young guys miss — they disrespect the team, the coaches, the staff, the fans. There’s a lot of people in our organization whose livelihood depends on how well we do, and we’re not going to tolerate people who are irresponsible no matter what round they’re drafted in.
“So these young guys, we’re going to give them a chance. They’re young kids. We’re going to work with them. Hopefully they’ll grow up, but if they can’t grow up and they can’t be responsible to their teammates and the coaches and our great fans, then they won’t be with the Cleveland Browns.”
