Cribbs Twitter Rant: Justified? You Tell Us
Josh Cribbs used profanity in a Tweet after seeing fans bash the Browns after the 34-12 loss to the Denver Broncos. The Plain Dealer reported that he later deleted the tweet.
Everybody likes to vent and after Sunday's loss to the Denver Broncos, Cleveland Browns fans weren't alone in the habit.
The fans were especially critical of Cleveland Browns Wide Receiver Josh Cribbs after a fumble and a penalty.
Cribbs had a few words to share in response on Twitter.
The Plain Dealer reported that Cribbs tweeted from his @JoshCribbs16 account,
"I see all the negativity on twitter after I gave my life to this (stuff)," he Tweeted. "So 2 all u who are against me (Expletive) all y'all. I'm still gonna do me!"
He later deleted the post, but continued to complain Sunday night:
"Yea I had a moment smh..... wooossssahhh aiiight man I 4got each day there are a new breed of haters out there disguised as fans!"
One blogger on Rant Sports recommended Cribbs not even have a Twitter account.
Fans have tweeted in response -- some in support including Iron Chef and Cleveland restauranteur Michael Symon, some not so supportive. We've shared some of those tweets in the photo gallery.
So Stow, what do you think about his tweets?

Agreed. That man has busted his butt week after week, year after year with the Browns. He absolutely has a right to be frustrated after these games, maybe not the best to put it out on Twitter but we all make those mistakes, I'd never bash him for it! He works hard as a player and does too much good in the community to hold a bad week against him, everyone on every team has times they make mistakes and his are far less than other players.

I laugh at all of these people (hypocrites) who bash players and then when the player responds in a way THEY don't like, they start whining like the everyday losers they are.
If these losers who bash can't take the heat, then they shouldn't have even stepped in the kitchen in the first place.
