Bentley hurt

The Browns season might have just been dealt an enormous blow Thursday morning as stud offensive lineman LeCharles Bentley was reportedly wheeled off the practice field with an air cast on his left leg.
Cleveland.com is reporting it as "what appears to be a serious injury to his left knee."
Bentley, a center, was supposed to be the Pro Bowl anchor to what was a vastly improved offensive line. If he is done for the year, the continuity of the offense is altered dramatically and the chances of the Browns having a competitive season go way down.
We'll see what the diagnosis and prognosis is, but right now it doesn't look good.
Welcome back to Cleveland, LeCharles.

C'mon, Papa Cass, give yourself over to me now. You know you want to come over to the Dark Side.

This is getting pretty ridiculous. I try not to believe in the Cleveland curse, but come on. It's as if we don't have the right to be optimistic anymore. We can't even think positive about the Browns before some season-ending (Bentley, Winslow) or career-ending (Jamir Miller) takes place. It's as if someone refuses to let Browns fans enjoy even a day of preseason optimism.
