    I guess we should've known this was coming when Tuitt sold his house in Pittsburgh earlier this year, I was hoping he would play this season, but I wish him well in retirement.

    Never said anything about opinions. But his personal life and decisions are just that, personal. Yiu can online and speculate all you want, but he owes none of us anything. There is a difference between having an opinion and actually expecting Tuitt owes you something because you bought his jersey.

    To the folks that are pissed and bitter, the Browns are looking for fans.

    Ahhhh, no. He had a minor procedure on his knee and missed over a year. It wasn't because of the knee injury 6. :cool:

    Good luck in retirement Stephon. Wish it could have turned out different for you and the organization but given the circumstances I understand.

    We don't know all the details and how much it prevented him from playing last season, I'm not going to question him, it's just dumb for some fans to act like he just sat out last season to take the Steelers money :rolleyes:.

    If Tuitt's retirement is processed as a post June 1st case they will save a little over 9 million, they will also have a dead money charge of 4.75 million in 2023.

    No actually they aren’t

    Browns have great fans

    I commended them

    It’s easy for us to root for a winning team

    They stand by their teams even when crappy

    Otherwise **** the Browns

    Correct, it was none of our business. This was 100% an employer/employee situation. If they want to tell the fans great, but fans are not entitled to it.

    You pointed out that most of the money comes from television contracts. I responded with the implication that fans are necessary for those contracts to exist. It was absolutely relevant.

    He wasn't disposable. They just couldn't keep everybody.

    Ok Symantec’s they kept who they wanted to keep

    But at the end of his last season he played poorly and was getting pushed back regularly

    All I can say is I wish Him best, and I was really amped at Him coming back. He was My favorite DL(sorry Cam), but what's done is done.

    BS. Your eye roll states entirely different as if what I posted wasn’t factually correct.

    I never implied fans weren’t necessary, that was just your usual grating self.

    I agree , but now if people stopped watching....that would be a different thing. I selfishly wanted Him back. He was one of the best DL in the league when He played. As a human I wish Him....Like I wish everyone....good luck, and have a good long life, or as Spock would say....Live Long,and Prosper.
