bigdog17k Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 http://pigskinlovinglady.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/marshall_brandon.jpgBroncos' Marshall suspended for preseason, can play Week 1ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Pro Bowl receiver Brandon Marshall, openly unhappy with the Denver Broncos, was suspended by the team through Sept. 5 for what coach Josh McDaniels called "detrimental" conduct. Marshall, who has brooded since demanding a trade and asking for a new contract, was informed of the suspension by McDaniels on Friday. "We tried to handle this situation with Brandon as privately and professionally as we could throughout the entire process with he and his agent, Kennard McGuire," McDaniels said at a news conference. "This morning, we made the decision as an organization to go ahead and suspend Brandon. We'll look forward to having him back on Sept. 6th as we begin our preparations for Cincinnati" in a Sept. 13 opener. McGuire didn't immediately return a phone call Friday. McGuire was out of the country until Monday. McDaniels did not single out a specific episode but said the suspension resulted from a series of incidents, though some boorish antics during the team's practice Wednesday -- after he had been warned about such conduct that very morning -- seemed to be the final straw for the coach. "His actions didn't really change after that warning. That leads us to today," McDaniels said. During pre-practice warmups Wednesday, Marshall walked while the rest of the team ran. He punted a ball away instead of handing it to a ball boy and swatted a pass thrown to him. His actions were caught on video and broadcast by KMGH-TV. Marshall told ESPN on Thursday night he wasn't trying to force a trade through insubordination but that frustration got the best of him. Marshall, who had 206 receptions the past two seasons, is also upset with what he feels was the team's misdiagnosis of a hip injury that required offseason surgery. He pulled a hamstring during the first weekend of training camp and didn't return until a week ago. The receiver was held out of practice Thursday, apparently as the organization was formulating its disciplinary response.Full Article w/ video Marshall is going about this ALL wrong imo.

Cobb Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Wow, he's so stupid it's not even funny. I don't understand why he is doing all of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdog17k Posted August 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 He really is an idiot. He doesn't even know how the team will perform yet, it's like give it a chance. And if you want out, don't be a [expletive] about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChosenOne Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Please just trade him and start rebuilding already. He has a point though he has out played his rookie contract, and deserves a new one. I think the Denver organization is also at fault here not just Brandon.

But then Brandon gets his way while acting like a baby. That isn't an example you want to set for future players. Broncos need to let him either play or sit. And just let him leave on his own via free agency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but you are only asking for more attention keeping him around, so why not trade him for so good value and go on with your season with out any troubles.

bigdog17k Posted August 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 Yeah but that is not going to stop all the negative attention. It will quiet it on all the big fronts. Sure you'll still hear about how Marshall is complaining, or unhappy, or doing whatever. But you won't see or hear his antics on the field.
