Braylon Edwards tweets apology to Ruiz and Patterson, But...

thats a crappy apology

You know who we do not hear enough from? Anthony. Carter. Let’s hear from that #1.

If he just stopped at "UM football needs to step up," it would have been OK.  

Maybe we could lock him in a room with Grant Newsome for a while and have Grant explain the significance of his tweet.

I replied that "you dropped those tweets faster than the two passes you dropped in the Rose Bowl"...

Twitter sucks

The 'Ol Non-Apology Apology. 

Did he apologize before or after getting suspended from BTN?

Patterson can really throw the ball well. I think he's an excellent qb

So, serious question:

When Browns fans (an elite club of sorts to which I belong) booed him, he and a lot of UM fans speculated that the main cause of the criticism lobbed his way (which bounced off his facemask) was his college selection and allegiance.  At what point can it be acknowledged that we didn't like him because he was/is an arrogant loudmouth who couldn't/can't catch?

Maybe we could lock him in a room with Grant Newsome for a while and have Grant explain the significance of his tweet.

Apologize and defend yourself--there's a winning strategy.

As if ANYONE thinks Michigan doesn't need to step its game up.

First one after RR when he got hired. Happy with Hoke cause he was a Carr guy. Harbaugh is a Bo guy.  I have never seen former players split like this. You would think they all want the best for the team. I  guess in some cases it is not the team, the team, the team.

Braylon is an ego maniac. Needs to stfu and get on with his life. Ripping on underperforming teenagers does nothing but make him look like an even bigger douche than he already is which seems impossible. 

Get the duck on with your life Braylon and do something positive for a change. 

Fucking dumbass. Good thing you were good at catching a ball because you aren’t good at anything else. 

He shouldn't personally call out players but anything he says about coaching or the program is fair game.

lol "...with that being said I still was right. They are trash." 

Guy must be attempting to take Shannon Sharps spot on the Skip Bayless show. 

i was disappointed with his comments. But he has a point though. Just see how our red zone offense was last season and this game. Soft... In JH's first two years, when we get to opponent's 5 yard to the end zone. We would line up our FB and HB, and run into the zone, with a lot of creative play call on the same set. Now suddenly, we abandon it since Pep joined the team. Instead the play caller whoever he is overthink himself and called a play action and didn't roll out our mobile QB, and led to a sack. To play ND, MSU, the best way is to pound the way in and crush their confidence. It's too soft not to do that. Bo, and Carr, even Hoke would do that in the first drive in red zone inside 5 yard line.

I won't call out player soft, but i do want to call out the offensive play caller soft in red zone.

Good apology to me and he’s right. We do need to step up, a lot. 

Piling on Braylon like this is pointless, and heartless. He said something stupid. But the second part of the sentence shouldn't be "fuck him," but rather, "but I understand, and I hope he gets help." That's the Michigan difference. That's Leaders and Best.

It's very clear Braylon has a problem. We've seen that he's probably had a problem for a very long time. From his own admission, and reports from others around him, that problem was on very public display on Saturday night. 

We have no idea what the people in Braylon's life have been doing to get him the help he very clearly needs. But I hope they're successful. I'm hoping a few years from now, if and when Braylon gets some help and clears his head a bit, that we see a contrite, mature, and unimpaired Braylon as a better ambassador of the university.

He has it in him, despite what the folks around here tend to think. I'm hoping for the best. And not condemning him at what very well could be his (very public) bottoming out.

I think BE has now replaced Chris Webber as #1 least liked former athlete here.  

This just in...asshole is asshole. 

Once an a-hole always an a-hole.  Not going to change.

I'm sure he'll be grabbing another TV gig shortly.

/s

what a goof.

This is a classic example of his message being correct, but his method being terrible. Braylon needs to understand that people won't take him seriously if his method is to be an asshole.

That was not an apology.

trying to think of when i was interested in what braylon thought about anything ever, and....nope.

lloyd had him pegged.  braylon will always and forever want attention, first and foremost.

i don't remember his dad being like this, was he?

Fight me, Braylon.

He shouldn't have called them out by name as he's a public figure in an analyst's capacity but the message is right on the money.  The offense was ridiculously predictable and yes Shea looked absolutely terrified at times.  The O-line which was supposedly taking things personally and were going to be improved this year simply wasn't.

The days of three yards and a cloud of dust are LONG over.  Don't resurrect them.

Why dont you just sit out a while Edwards..dumb shit 

This is what happens when you combine too much money, too much fame and too many head shots.
