This is crazy! Typical Jag's idiocy.


The contract itself isn't crazy. It's a slotted system so whomever was picked at 3 and 22 would get what they got really anyway. Now who's the better player is up for debate.

I like Johnny Football. He's the most dynamic college player I've ever seen. The dude does push your tolerance level when he parades in front of the world with that "'m a bad boy party animal jerk and I don't give a **** what you think about it" face. There is perhaps a poetic justice here. With that New AWLENS/Vegas soul he's marooned in of all places, Cleveland. Talk about a city cramping your style.
lol

It really doesn't surprise me that you're a fan.

Sure I'm a fan. Watching Johnny Football scramble like a deer and make impossible throws game after game was like enjoying a pyrotechnical display on the Fourth of July.

Superstar football fireworks on the field > disdain for being a complete jerk off the field

He won't be pulling that :kiffin: in the NFL where the best D-Linemen and LBs in the world are chasing him. He won't have far superior WRs saving his @ss making hail Mary jump pass catches either.

Well when NFL D get to him on a regular basis and he ends up a cripple it will be interesting.

I don't really hate Manziel, it's more like disdain for everything he stands for.

rooting against him because even after getting passed over by so many teams in the first round and looking like he was going to cry the little **** still show's no sense of humility and comes out like this. **** him

Johnny is playing in a new 4-team league called the Fan Controlled League - where the fans pick the lineups - it's 7 on 7 and on a 50 yard field. He said he's playing in the league because he's bored and needs something to do, he's not trying to "make a comeback":

'This isn’t me trying to be a comeback:' Johnny Manziel returns with new and unusual league

Johnny Manziel returns to football with new Fan Controlled Football

Johnny Manziel showed a gash on the knuckle of his right hand and explained it took place during Super Bowl 55.

“I was jumping up and down and ended up punching the ceiling in the hotel room on accident,” Manziel told USA TODAY Sports this week. “I got a little banged up from sports betting this weekend.”

The bet that led to the injury: He wagered on the coin toss at the Super Bowl coming up heads, then watched a health care worker who was serving as an honorary captain flip the coin into the air.

“I was a little nervous when she flipped it and it didn’t really rotate,” he said. “But once it said heads, that’s all that matters."

Manziel, 28, the party-boy, Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback, is betting that playing in a new spring league – Fan Controlled Football (FCF) – for a team called the Zappers is the right move for his uncertain future.

A huge departure from the NFL, this four-team spring league is 7-on-7 football, on a 50-yard field, with games limited to one hour. Fans will pick the lineups and call the plays as the games will be shown on Twitch, a video streaming service.

The league begins Saturday and Manziel – the league's marquee player – is expected to start at quarterback for the Zappers.

“A big reason I’m here is I’m a little bored,” Manziel said. “I’ve been playing golf five days a week, hanging with my boys and playing cards and running around Scottsdale having a blast with a great group of friends that I’ve acquired out there. But I don’t have much of a schedule unless I create one, and I haven’t really created one.
