WTF?!?!: The Cleveland Browns vs. Josh Cribbs

I don't know what the hell is going on inside the heads of Randy Lerner, George Kokinis, or Eric Mangini, but I'm not sure I like it. After begging and pleading for a new contract, feeling he deserves more money, Josh Cribbs wants out of Cleveland. WTF BROWNS?!!?! This is Josh Cribbs--in my mind, one of the only good players on the team. Apparently, he wants something like a 4 year/ $40 Mil. deal, with $15 Million guaranteed. That's a steep price, and I think it's a ridiculous request. But instead of working a deal out, what does the front office do? Nothing. They don't try to bargain with Cribbs. Nothing. He's set to make $645,000 this year. Come on Cleveland. Give this Dawg a bone. I don't know where we can scrounge up some extra cash for him, but I've got ideas (starting with maybe getting rid of half the Jets' team that we now have on our roster). But honestly, this is ridiculous. Without Joshua Cribbs, the Browns will suck even more, and we don't have very far to fall to get there.
