Johnny Manziel likely just a back-up for Saints game
September 11, 2014‘Stache-less Indians sweep doubleheader
September 11, 2014Spencer Lanning hasn’t been in the news this much since he tossed a touchdown to Jordan Cameron in a win over the Minnesota Vikings. Yet, here we are, discussing the Cleveland Browns’ punter, days after he received a left cleat to the facemask in the middle of a game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Apparently, Antonio Brown, who delivered the blow, told reporters that all is well with him and Lanning as the two patched things up over a post-game hug and laughs. This is all well and good, except for the fact that Lanning said the two never spoke—at all.
Browns punter Spencer Lanning said he did not talk to Antonio Brown after the game and said Brown was lying yesterday when he said they did

Lanning said he looked for Brown, did not find him. "I don't know why he would say that."

Yeah, we’re not sure either. Worse? Lanning has allegedly taken so much grief for getting a Jean-Claude to the mug that his friends, family and the always-kind folks on Twitter have forced him to delete his app.
Lanning said he's neither hurt nor mad. Has taken crap from friends and got so many tweets he had to delete the Twitter app from his phone.

Apparently shutting off the push notifications wasn’t an option. At least that’s a few more megs of space available for Snapchat.

Twitter stinks
Is deleting Twitter ever a bad thing?
From the title, I thought he had somehow deleted Twitter from existence, which would have been worthy of accolades 😉
Funny. His Twitter account seems fine to me. @LanningSpencer
Funny—he never said he deleted his profile.
Never trust a punter he’s probably lying about talking to Brown too.
Funny. Your headline is thus a midleading, attention-seeking piece of craptastic writing. Good job, you.
They would have written a book called, “twitter For Dummies,” except that would just be twitter.
The man can kick a football higher and farther than 99.9% on human beings on the planet. He makes more money doing so than 99.9% of people on the planet doing whatever the hell we do. He tried to tackle someone running full-speed to save a touchdown. He does not deserve mockery for any of this. Punt on, Spencer.
Exactly. Spencer Lanning was just doing his job…effectively, I might add. He put himself between Brown and the end zone and got kicked in the face/neck for his trouble.
You know what he’s making this year? $495,000. Hate on haters. Call him “just a punter” all you want. Just know that Big Money Spence is laughing all the way to the back…right after a stop at urgent care. A kick in the face is still a kick in the face.
