Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon "sincerely" apologized for his suspension earlier this month, but the two-game ban apparently has not served as a wake-up call. A source told ESPNCleveland.com's Tony Grossi that Gordon has been partying in South Beach, running with a "different crowd" and being "influenced by the wrong people" since the end of the 2012 NFL season. Brooks: Why Browns will soar People are used to expecting little from the Browns, but Bucky Brooks says their offense is poised to surprise. More ... Gordon has also displayed immaturity and poor judgment in waging a Twitter war with Cleveland fans over his support for LeBron James and the Miami Heat during the NBA playoffs. Gordon's bumpy offseason led Terry Pluto of The Plain Dealer to reveal that Browns executives had told him they were concerned about the "entitlement mentality" of some of their players. Part of the problem is that the game comes too easily for Gordon, who possesses a legit No. 1 wide receiver skill set. Last year's coaching staff was less than thrilled with Gordon's lackadaisical approach in training camp, and CEO Joe Banner called Gordon out in March. Source: NFL.com
"........ Browns executives had told him they were concerned about the "entitlement mentality" of some of their players ............ " it is rare for a teenager or 20-something in this country in the year 2013 to NOT have an entitlement mentality. For NFL executives, they have to put a coaching staff in place that can help these kids mature quickly. That's part of their job.
Well it does please me that they realize that kind if attitude is a problem. Kind of reassuring to know the guys in charge plan to instill a "grow the heck up" mentality in young players. As part of the Browns, you don't have a lot to feel that way about anyway, you play somewhere with an epically bad recent history
OH NO NOT A TWITTER SPAT OVER SPORTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! if that is displaying immaturity now i seriously hate the world
