Mike Brown is trying to prove a point, IMO, that point is basically that players cannot dictate to owners how they are going to run their business.

Maybe Carson is on the trading block, for all we know. Anything less than a decent tailback or 2nd round pick, I'd let him sit at home too.


Lets see, Mike Brown took over for his Dad in 1991.

I know lets hire Dave Shula, 19-52 record, NO POST SEASON
Ok, lets hire Bruce Coslet, 21-39 record, NO POST SEASON
Ok, lets hire **** Lebeau, 12-33 record, NO POST SEASON
Ok, lets hire Marvin Lewis, 60-69 record, 0-1 in Post Season in 2006

112-193 record and 0-1 in post season in 20 years as an Owner, averaging 5.5 wins per season in the NFL.

4 coaches, 1 post season game and that was a loss in 2006. If this is OLD SCHOOL then somebody bring in the NEW SCHOOL!!!! Mike Brown, Marge Schott, Cincinnati Pathetic Professional Owners of Sports Teams. Marvin Lewis should have been fired a couple of years ago, ESPECIALLY after last seasons performance. Now Mike "Old School I am going to prove a point" Brown has a chance to trade a disgruntled QB, who has every right to be pissed off at an Owner who is completely as incompetent as the Head Coach. Palmer is wasting prime years of his career on a franchise that has NO FUTURE. I would demand a trade. Even nutcase Al Davis is a better owner than Mike Brown and that is saying a lot
