It's not fair to make too many Johnny
Manziel gestures in Washington Redskins bench. This is a lot of use gestures. But
to be fair it important, it should be. Cleveland Brown rookie quarterback did
he in a nationally televised games and many look, look at him. Coach Mike Pettine
explains why it is important for him. "This is very disappointing,"
said Pettine. "We talked about playing like brown. We hope that our people
is just like a Brown. We want to be a first-class organization. We have
hundreds of thousands of children to attend our training practice. This kind of
behavior is unacceptable." Position. Pettine and then add on Manziel thing
is obvious: "he should know better than anyone, all eyes are on him."
Manziel will be fined and life will continue. His teammates will rebound. But
it matters. And here’s why. Manziel plays in a city that raised Jesse
Owens, who went on to win gold medals in the 1936 Olympics in Berlin in front of Adolf Hitler. He
plays in a city that was home to Larry Doby, the first African-American in the
American League who dealt with constant and bitter racism. He plays in a
city that was home to Jim Brown, who overcame racism and spoke out against it
throughout his career. All of them dealt with far more than Manziel does
on the field, and they handled it with dignity and pride, not with a junior
high gesture. Manziel is friends with LeBron James, who competes as hard
as anyone and has never done anything like that on the basketball court. Finally,
Manziel team-mate Joe Thomas, he played every down
every game because he drafted and professional Bowl every year. He has
experienced all the 10 - loss of season, every season, but he made to the team.
He never complain, never let their performance, despite the annual trick year
after year after year. Manziel attitude is very important, because he couldn't
spend his second preseason game without a classless behavior. He’s competition.
What he did and said a lot of since he started camp. But this stance will be in
the first camp more remember things. He can put it behind him and how he acts in
the future, and he deserved a chance. But it is not the best way to start a
career. Is not the best way to follow those who paved the way for him.
