Reportedly Toxic

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Peyton Hillis lashed out at former teammate Joe Thomas on Thursday, comparing the Browns' offensive tackle to a "crazy ex-girlfriend" after he made disparaging comments about the Kansas City Chiefs' running back.

Thomas told reporters in Cleveland on Wednesday that Hillis didn't always play hard during his time with the Browns. He also accused Hillis of creating a "toxic" environment in the locker room by putting his contract situation ahead of the team.

Hillis's retort

"Joe Thomas, he can have his opinions all he wants," Hillis said Thursday. "It's kind of like a crazy ex-girlfriend, you know? It's been over a year. Get over it. But I don't know. I guess when you get paid over $100 million by one team, it's kind of easy to point the finger at another guy and hate on him for trying to get another contract."

hmmm this doesn't necessarily sound like a denial of any sort

Pat Shurmur is mum on the subject

Man it's hard being a white running back in this league. Who does this Joe Thomas think he is criticizing someone who has to fight prejudice and judgment every time he puts pads on?

Can't wait to see the huddle's human stormfront repository put their little spin on this

      D. Morgan on T-Mac: “I made the decision pretty early [January]

      By ECHornet · Posted

      Cheers OP. I wanted TMac to be the pick and was so excited, and surprised, when his name was called.    Last year, I wanted one of the Xaviers, Worthy or Legette. So Dan has been delivering on my wish lists. Now I hope it pays off over the next few years.    With our trade up last year into the first, we could have a dynamic WR duo on cost-controlled contracts for 4 years.

      Yea I have it.  When it flares it can be very severe.  I had an extended hospitalization a couple years ago and it took a while to recover.  Can’t imagine trying to deal with that as a pro athlete.  It’s hard enough as a desk jockey.

      Before Shadeur Sanders there was Ryan Mallet

      I think the difference is that The Golden Calf of Bristol and Cam were just big personalities with big time talent (The Golden Calf of Bristol just lacked any consistency, leading to most of us hating him because it felt like he pulled big plays out of his ass). Sanders is a good talent who is completely full of himself and the ego feels unearned. You should WANT to change the bad culture of the losing franchise you expect to go to as a top pick...but that's a thing you keep to yourself or articulate well enough that it doesn't come off as "we're doing poo my way, if you don't like that, don't draft me".  You don't create an entire room touting yourself as legendary when you did absolutely nothing legendary at the collegiate level. Nobody is going to be fondly remembering Shadeur Sanders the college QB. Johnny Football is there, Cam is there, Vince Young is there, RGIII is there, The Golden Calf of Bristol is there.   Sanders needs humility and to pry himself away from his father. His father is going to tank his career before it is even started.    Sanders may bounce around the league as a backup for a few years, he'll play in select games and look like a backup but he'll have that one game where he pops off and that game will be used to say "see?! He's great!" and then he'll get the start and never live up to that game again.
