Here’s how stupid you must be to play for the Cleveland Browns.
Odds makers are calling the NBA Finals that start tonight between the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers perhaps the most one-sided championship series in the history of pro basketball. Damarious Randall better hope they are right.
Randall is the new free safety for the Cleveland Browns, who should not be mistaken for the LeBron-led Cavaliers. Here is why: Randall signed with the NFL team that went 0-16 last season and kept its coach, Hue Jackson. Dumb move No. 1, there.
This week, Jackson will jump into Lake Erie to pay off the debt he owes by guaranteeing fans that the Browns would not be worse in 2017 than they were in 2016, when they went 1-15. They were worse by one game. Take a swim, coach!
Now they have this nincompoop safety making this dumb promise on Twitter this week. Randall said if the Cavaliers beat the Warriors for the NBA title, he would buy every fan that re-tweeted his offer a Browns’ jerseys. As of last night, 885,000 people had done it. At $100 bucks per jersey, that will cost Randall almost $78 million, if LeBron can lead the Cavs to their second title in three years.
What was this guy thinking? Cleveland fans aren’t as stupid as he apparently thinks. They are pretty passionate, with the Indians a Major League playoff contender and the Cavs having James, who has proven he can lead any team to victory.
Randall said he didn’t think that many people would re-tweet his tweet. Duh? A free Browns jersey if the Cavaliers win? They are underdogs, yes, but never out of it with LeBron. Now, Randall will be rooting against his new hometown NBA team to save himself millions or a major PR disaster, which his new football team hardly needs.
What is it with Twitter, anyway? How do compulsive tweeters get anything else done if they spend all day tweeting and reading, then re-tweeting, tweets? The general manager of the NBA Sixers, Bryan Colangelo, is under investigation for having secret Twitter accounts on which he criticized his own players.
Whaaat? I hope that is not true, because Colangelo will have lost the last job he ever has in pro basketball. He’s the GM of the team! If he doesn’t like his players, trade them, don’t tweet about them. Or hire Randall to do your dirty work!
