Rob Long Update: And Now We Hate The Cleveland Browns...
The Cleveland Browns were you favorite NFL team for approximately two days. Now you hope they go 0-27.*
The Browns invited former Syracuse punter Rob Long to work out for the team on Aug. 2 after Reggie Hodges went down with what appears to be a season-ending injury.
Today, they apparently decided to go with a punter not named Rob Long, thereby ending his time with the team. They instead decided to go with Richmond McGee, who was waived by the Bears on Monday. Thereby proving the Cleveland Browns motto to be..."Just Trying To Get By With Chicago's Leftovers."
From now on, we'll all imagine Jim Brown and Ernie Davis in Bengals uniforms.
As you might expect, Rob is taking the highest of roads, which is good since I'm taking such a low one.
* I know there are only 16 games in a season (for now) but that's how pissed off you are...

did Rob Long even arrive yet before they cut him?
Geez. You’d think they’d give the new guy a chance considering the other guy is proven mediocre. I’d root for Rob Long on the Pats, but Zoltan Mesko is only a second year player. And Zoltan Mesko has an amazing name. Can’t argue with that.

They probably waived him after finding out he beat cancer
Those kind of winning ways and positive attitudes have no place in Cleveland.

Maybe they thought he'd brings his own helmet
and they wouldn’t have to pay for a new one, and then were upset when they found out that we don’t have the same helemt as them anymore. So they decided to go with “Tits” McGee.

Great job Cleveland
Choose the kicker whose name sounds like an awful jam band rather than the one with the word LONG right there in his name.
It's like passing on a quarterback named Accurate
Or a wide receiver named Catch.
Or an Orange named Otto.

In the long run, this is good
Better that Rob play for a better team and not a shitty one like the Browns.

I hope the Browns go 0-27 every year, Rob Long or no Rob Long. I really hope he makes a team elsewhere, but I’m a little relieved it wasn’t in Cleveland.
