Brandon Marshall Says Goodbye To Teammates, Fans

Brandon Marshall is saying his good-byes to the Denver Broncos and their fans even as coach Josh McDaniels talks about seeing his holdout Pro Bowl receiver at training camp next month. Marshall posted a farewell on his blog Tuesday, four days after requesting a trade during a private meeting with team owner Pat Bowlen. In a posting on his blog Tuesday that was titled "Clearing the Air," Marshall wrote: "Life is filled with change, and where I am in my life now change is probably best. It's hard leaving an organization ran (sic) by one of the best owners in all of sports, and someone who's been there for me through my ups and downs. The hardest thing was hearing Mr. B wish me luck in the future, but we both came to the conclusion that this is probably the best thing for me to grow on and off the field," Marshall continued. "I thank the Denver fans who embraced my emotion and play on the field and (for) showing me love every time I step outside my door."

Yeah, that out play your current contract clauce is called the training camp holdout.

 

Awesome...

I find it hard to believe that Bowlen just agreed to trade Marshall at Brandon's request as easily as that...who knows...

This team has gone in the crapter real quick...

 

Yeah, I was shocked to hear Bowlen would agree to trade Marshall that easily. It might be a snitch actually trading him. I'm wondering what teams are willing to give up for Marshall.

 

You got to figure it's going to be a whole hell of a lot less than what teams were willing to give up for Boldin. I'm very surprised that 19 stories about Marshall to the Eagles haven't popped up already...

 

No Marshall to the Redskins stories yet? LOL

 

Most entertaining off-season ever!

 

Yeah, especially in Denver, lol.

 

Especially in the AFC West.

 

Entertaining is not the word I would use for life as a Denver fan. Life is full of drama, and now I have it with the sacred grounds of my football team. You say entertainment, I say pain in my freaking butt.

 

McMoron took a team with a great offense, and a pathetic defense. What did he do? Destroy de offense, and not moving a single finger to improve the defense.

I'd be surprised if the Broncos win more than 2 games in 2009. Bellichick's coaching tree is overrated: Crennel: FAIL. Wise: FAIL. McDaniels: about to FAIL.

 

I guess they think dawkins is a big improvement. Its gonna be weird seeing him in anything but a eagles jersey.

 

So he could hold out until August?

 

Come on Ozzie Newsome - time to pull the trigger.

 

Alot of teams arent gonna touch Marshall This is how Brian Broddus, who was a Cowboy scout when marshal was in the draft pool described him

"He has incredible talent but is absolutely certifiably crazy. He has some real issues that we don't want anything to do with."

And this is the team that took a flier on Pac Man.....

 

Agreed, what nobody seems to care about is Marshall is a basket case and cant stay on the field...depending what Denver gets for Marshall this may not be nearly as bad as everyone is making it ot to be. And I know nobody agrees but I also think that Cutler is a head case, and although has tremendous upside, throws alot of bad picks on his side of the field.

 

Yeah, it may not be entertaining to you but to any other fan of another team, it's entertaining.

 

Mangini: FAIL

Al Groh: FAIL

 

Let me say as a Rams fan with average at best wideouts I would not want this guy. The Cowboys had it right when they said this dude is freaking nuts, in nicer words of course. He can be lights out on the field, but with his personal issues who knows how long Goodell is gonna let him play on the field.

As far as Denver going down the toilet, yes it is funny to everyone not a Broncos fan. God knows as a Rams fan we can use as many bad teams in the league as possible to make us look a little better.

And one last thing. Thank God we signed Spags and not this douchebag named McDaniels. I remember when he was said to be a top 3 choice after Spags and Ryan.
