    Sometimes we just finish eachother's sentences.....



    Braylon might go to jail for 6 months - he just cost himself a lot of Money....

    Let this play out...


    I say if they want to be all high and mighty and suspend him, then just suspend him for the year and wait for Santonio.

    That's how I feel. The NFL has substance and conduct policies in place for a reason. But the game check to MADD or something like that would be the channel I'd like to see the team take.

    The team already proved that they don't care as much about what a player does off the field as long as they produce, and they've been known to dish out fines on their own. That's what I think they'll do here.

    I don't think we should bench him, he is vital to the team. We should at least waterboard him like they did to Jackson on hard knocks. At least this time a little more.

    I still don't know yet, this is a tough one for me.

    I think we can beat the Phins without all the key players we are missing. If you look at it we are missing the best player at each level of D, and might lose our best WR. I still know we will win but I'd feel much more comfortable with him in their.


    Cotch, Clown, and Smith don't exactly strike fear into the hearts of many. Actually sounds like a comedy act or something.


    I need time to think about this. lol

    I don't understand how a fan would want to see our best WR sidelined for an important divisional game on the road? The only thing you should care about is the team, and how they perform on the field, not what they do in their private lives.

    No... if the league suspends him that's fine but until he found guilty or pleads to it then let him play.

    so why should the jets suspend edwards and the dolphins didn't have to suspend ronnie brown? braylon edwards is only hurting himself. fine him a lot of money. don't hurt the team in the process. it's not their fault.

    Suspend him for 8 weeks starting in March. He is not to be let anywhere near the Meadowlands during that period, period!

    He pleaded No Contest, so it's effectively guilty.

    Just fine him some money and pray he doesn't do it again
