Isaiah Crowell is doing what most athletes do when they get in hot water by sharing their thoughts on controversial news items. The Cleveland Browns running back is backpedaling.
And doing so faster than he ever thought about running the 40-yard dash.
Crowell has never been accused of being the most enlightened of football players.
-snip-
After three years in the NFL, you would think the young man had matured to some degree. But when Crowell went to Instagram to post a photo of a police officer having his throat slashed, it was clear he’s just as reckless as ever.
Crowell blamed his “mistake” on being upset at the recent police shootings in Minnesota and Louisiana.
“I posted an image to Instagram in the midst of that emotion that I shouldn’t have and immediately removed it. It was an extremely poor decision, and I apologize for that mistake and for offending people. My values and beliefs do not match that image,” Crowell wrote on .
So for any folks out there who do think it’s OK to slaughter guys with badges as a whole, Isaiah Crowell is not a guy you can count on to do any of the dirty work. This privileged pro football player, who signed a $1.5 million dollar contract in 2014, is just a keyboard gangster.

The stupidity of this act is also also astounding. This NFL thug is, basically, advocating killing police. Imagine a world with no police. In other words, no civil society. How does the NFL play its games in such an environment? How does Isaiah get paid? What planet is this guy on.
Stupid is as stupid does. This guy deserves a lifetime ban. Without the NFL he would be selling loosies outside a variety store on Martin Luther King Blvd. in any number of inner cities. Just another du....ck negro.
So, posting a threat of violent murder is just “hot water”, immature, “reckless”, “mistake”, “extremely poor decision”.
Plus, if you read his apology, trust me, he did not write it.
I haven’t seen any definitive statement from either the NFL or the Cleveland Browns repudiating this idiot’s statements.
Absent that, one is left to conclude that both the NFL and the Cleveland Browns endorse the murder of police officers.
Crowell went to a high school close to me. Thug. Entirely. Talented but 110% thug.
Was dismissed from UGA for thug behavior.
He won’t make it long n the nfl. He’ll be in trouble with his teammates, his coaches, and the law too soon.
That's what he was thinking.
Maybe when the baby boomers all croak, maybe successive generations might get tired of this bull? After all, we're the generation carrying the whole white guilt thing.
Fact is, I wasn't driving the bus Rosa Parks boarded and had nothing to do with oppression. Why should I have to pay the price?
The Browns should have cut him immediately. They failed that test.
Crowell should be cut from the team. First and foremost for the message it would send to the rest of the team, and the league. Secondly, the Browns suck, they can lose 11 games with Crowell, they can lose 11 games without him.
Typical UGA punk. What was Steve Spurrier’s famous line about UGA? He loved playing them early in the year because he knew they would have at least 3-4 players suspended.
If that were the case you wouldn't have put it up there in the first place, you lying sack of shit.
The person who designed that picture should be arrested for inciting violence against policemen.
This is what the empowerment of this vindictive negrocracy does to its intellectually challenged but thoroughly indoctrinated voter block...
...welcome to New S Afrika.
Thanks.
Typical mealy-mouthed pap.
NFL is all about being politically correct and when you’re one of the protected class the brother-man commish will bend over backward. The Browns likely know there are numerous other players who hold similar views on their team so they’ll play this by ear rather than principle.
I agree but it won’t happen. What if a white player had done the same thing to a BLM guy? All hell would break loose!
FIRE HIM!
That is so criminally despicable! What the heart thinkth the mouth speakth ...in this case his heart spilled the most horrendous picture of his hatred towards the white the community, who in reality pay his million dollar salary! The police should demanded that he be kicked off the football team and forced to wear a blue uniform and walk the Chicago streets at night! If he can survive unscathed with his life in hand for a whole year he should be given the opportunity to return to his team!
