FartWaffles 1,857 Posted August 28, 2012 it's been about three weeks since Britt's meeting with Goodell and still no word on a possible suspension, we have to make final cuts by the end of the week, am I the only one who finds this timeline completely unacceptable? Sure it'd be nice to get word on his suspension sooner rather than later, but I think regardless of the punishment the Titans are going to keep Britt on their final roster. When healthy and not behind bars Britt is clearly the most talented receiver on the team, and it's not even close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When healthy and not behind bars Britt is clearly the most talented receiver on the team, and it's not even close. It's not a matter of deciding whether or not to cut him, he's clearly a stud. It's a matter of deciding how many WRs to carry in his absence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AL_Royalty 489 Posted August 28, 2012 (edited) Kenny Britt helped me win $350 in a 2010 fantasy football league, but since then, He's either been in trouble or injured. It doesn't matter how talented he is if he can't get on the field. I've read through this whole thread, and I don't really see anything he's done that's that terrible, but I HAVE seen a lot of stupidity exhibited by this kid. Also, if he didn't have millionaire lawyers, He'd have definitely done some time over some of this. I'm not really sure what I'd do if I were the one making the decisions for the Titans. There's no questioning his talent, but there's also no questioning his rack-a-disciprin. The only question is, how embedded is his immaturity and resistance of any structure. The one very telling thing that I read in this thread was that, a day after basically getting off scott free of felony charges, instead of being at team workouts with the rest of his team, he decided to go get into trouble that, if some later reports are accurate, never would have escalated had he just cooperated. Combine this with his history of injury, and I don't think you can keep the guy. Edited August 28, 2012 by B-isforBowe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When healthy and not behind bars Britt is clearly the most talented receiver on the team, and it's not even close. Kila already made my point for me, but I'm going to elaborate. If Britt can play week one then our WRs are pretty well set with him, Washington, Wright, Williams, and Hawkins, but if he's out for an extended period of time early on we're going to need to look hard at our young guys to get a fifth guy on the roster or bring in a veteran for depth. To not know what we're going to need there really hurts our preparation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oochymp 2,393 Posted August 30, 2012 honestly, we probably weren't beating New England with Britt, so this basically just gives him another week to rehab his knee, but I still wonder why it took the league so long to come to this decision Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted August 30, 2012 He's been arrested like 8 times and gets one game? Johnny Jolly, the dumb fat drug head that he is, got arrested like 4 times and is suspended indefinitely. Weird and inconsistent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BC 331 Posted August 31, 2012 Is the dude healthy? I was expected him to not do a lot of playing this year. Are we seriously potentially looking at Britt playing 15 games? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted August 31, 2012 Is the dude healthy? I was expected him to not do a lot of playing this year. Are we seriously potentially looking at Britt playing 15 games? There are two things Kenny Britt can't do. 1) Stay Healthy. 2) Stay out of trouble. I would be shocked if he played 15 games this season. *** waits 4 months for this reply to get quoted and laughed at *** Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted August 31, 2012 If Britt only get's one day for his 8th offense Lynch better only see one day as well. the thing about Britt's incidents (and sorry I don't have a more artful way of putting it) is that he's never had a "what the fuck were you thinking?!" incident, he's just had a lot of "that was probably a bad idea"s it's definitely gotten to the point where he's established a pattern, which is why discipline was necessary, but none of the incidents have been enough to merit a whole lot of attention.

I concede the fact that they may not be some kind of mastermind felon type of acts... But EIGHT times, he's had a run in with the law. EIGHT. That's just absurd. Do us a favor, Kenny. Stay home.

Do us a favor, Kenny. Stay home. like I said, he's definitely established a pattern that needs to be changed, but I don't think a four to six game suspension is necessary to do that, I wouldn't argue with a two game suspension, but I think one is completely fair given what he's done Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted March 19, 2013 just thought I'd share this: FORT CAMPBELL, KY. — A federal magistrate found that Titans wide receiver Kenny Britt not guilty of driving under the influence after trying to pass through a security gate at Fort Campbell Army post on the Tennessee-Kentucky state line. After a five-hour trial on the post Tuesday, U.S. magistrate Lanny King also found Britt not guilty of violating the implied consent law for refusing to take a Breathalyzer test. Britt was in the courtroom but was not called to testify. He was arrested on July 20 when he tried to enter the post through a gate on the Kentucky side of the installation. Military police administered a field sobriety test, then handcuffed Britt and took him to the Fort Campbell police station where he refused to take a Breathalyzer test.
