    I know the Browns GM, and he is prob. more sick of Brady's crying then we are.

    The GM is calling him out now:

    BEREA — Perhaps sensing a need to put Brady Quinn in his place, Browns General Manager Phil Savage said this Thursday: "Last I checked, and I haven't been in a math class in a long time, three plus 19 equals 22."

    It was a reference to Joe Thomas' draft position (No. 3 overall) as opposed to Quinn's (No. 22), as if to remind Quinn that even though he thinks he should have been drafted in the top five, he wasn't. And he won't be paid like it.

    Brady says he is only being reasonable which the flip side is that he thinks the Browns are being unreasonable:

    Q: The contract holdout is a week long and counting. How much longer can this draw out?

    A: I don't know. I think it's a give-and-take. It's tough to answer. But what we're asking for is reasonable.

    Now we on this forum are far from the only people being critical of his holdout:

    Dear Brady Quinn:

    As you work out in Arizona or wherever, have you dared to ask yourself, ''Just what am I doing?''

    Do you realize that your holdout makes it seem like you have an overblown sense of entitlement? That you not only are hurting yourself by holding out, but also not helping the team that saved you from even a bigger free-fall in the NFL Draft?

    Brady, the Browns picked you at No. 22.

    It doesn't matter that they once said you were among the top five players on their draft board. Or that you thought you should, as a quarterback, go higher than 22nd. Or that your college coach Charlie Weis thinks you are the next Tom Brady. Or that you went to Notre Dame.

    You still were picked 22nd.

    The only reason you didn't sink lower is the Browns made a deal with the Dallas Cowboys to stop your skid at 22. As you sat there forever in that room sweating in your suit on national TV during draft day, did you ever wish you had gone fishing with Joe Thomas instead?
