It's the domestic violence story that the Cleveland Browns want to shamelessly wish away: After getting dinner and drinks on Oct. 12, Johnny Manziel allegedly hit his girlfriend Colleen Crowley "a couple of times," pushed her head against a car window and grabbed her arm during a roadside dispute, according to her account in the police report. Police later found abrasions on Crowley's arm. One would think that this would've sparked the end of Manziel in Cleveland. After hopelessly struggling through an unproductive rookie season, he was in rehab this past offseason, so a report of drinking violence mixed with drinking -- police smelled alcohol on Manziel's breath -- should've been the last strike.Instead, the Browns, who've levied no punishments against Manziel, reportedly want him to break up with Crowley, according to CBS Sports writer Jason La Canfora.The Browns would rather see a possible victim kicked to the curb than for their own quarterback to face his actions, accept punishment and receive treatment. It's an absurd request of cowardice on the Browns' part and underscores just how inept NFL teams can be when handling domestic violence reports.
