Deshaun Watson Posted An Instagram Story From A Beautiful Vacation Just 24 Hours After The Browns Got Eliminated From Playoff Contention
Listen I'm not saying the guy is known for making the smartest of choices, but is this not the most tone deaf thing you've ever seen? The rest of his team is cooped up in northeast Ohio, where it's snowy and windy, sludging through a 3-10 season......while he is vacationing out on the water, drinking wine, and eating pasta. AND HE HAS THE AUDACITY TO POST IT ON HIS STORY???
News flash, Deshaun, the rest of the team wants to be on vacation already too. But they have to show up to practice everyday. They have to continue to go through the motions. And they have to go get their ass kicked every Sunday and be the laughing stock of the league. Because they're getting paid millions of dollars to do so. So it's not only the fans you're pissing off with this post, your teammates have to be fucking livid too. It's one thing to be injured (again), it's another to rub the pasta and wine in their faces that you're indulging in while they're preparing for slaughter against the Chiefs.
Is he trolling Cleveland? There's really no other explanation to this. The fans hate him. The organization is pissed that he took us for a $230,000,000 ride and now we're stuck with him. And he's laughing in all of our faces with a nice bottle of wine, thousands of miles away. Less than 24 hours after the Browns were officially eliminated from playoff contention, too.
Am I crazy or is this NOT how injured NFL players act? I thought the question was do you stand on the sidelines or do you sit in the suite? But I figured a given is that you still show up to the facility, do your rehab, watch film with the team, and especially if you're QB1.....LEAD! But apparently that's only for the other quarterbacks in the NFL. Deshaun Watson plays under his own rules. He gets hundreds of millions of dollars in 100% guaranteed contracts and the day his season ends, he takes off to find a body of water a little nicer than Lake Erie.
I simply cannot get over the fact that he posted it. I'm disappointed that he's not in Cleveland, but I'm flat out dumbfounded he decided to let his Instagram followers know he's on vacation. What an absolutely ungrateful douchebag.
