Suggs not headed to the Jets

According to sources from the AP, and CBSsportline, the trade that was to send RB Lee Suggs to the New York Jets has been nullified. Suggs was to be traded to the Jets from DB Derrick Strait. However, after a career plagued with injuries, it appears it is an unknown injury that caused Lee Suggs to fail his team physical with the Jets. The failed physical means the trade is off and the Jets are still looking for a replacement for the injured Curtis Martin.

Which means the Browns will probably just cut him.

All Browns fans should just take a moment and repeat "serinity now" to help ease the pain this pre-season has already brought.

Actually we're all just nodding our heads, saying "That's our Browns!, and watching every single minute of every game as we slowly move to a simultanious nervous and mental breakdown.

The response over on the Browns message board has been classic, as you might expect. I especially liked this post:

Yes, this is actually laughable. I had already thrown my Lee Suggs voodoo doll in the trash. It was the one with all the bandages on it to keep him healthy. Must have thrown it a little too hard!

Well actually it was a trade. I'm sure if the Browns cut Suggs the Jets would be happy to jump on him. And that just might happen.

He's been on the field for the Browns all training camp. Whatever the Jets found, it's news to the Browns.
