Yeah. I was listening to Fox Sports Radio and Clay Travis chimes in and talks shit about Baker, again.Baker Mayfield Isn't Sorry About Any of It
In one season, Baker Mayfield has become the NFL's scariest QB. In this interview with GQ, the outspoken star talks about how he got there, from the unbreakable self-confidence to the apology he didn't mean.www.gq.com
And the money quote?

I don’t like it. I don’t want to be the l villain. I don’t want to be hated, being laughed at was troubling. I want to be the feel good story for once.This is probably the biggest turn in popular opinion from NFL fans on a Browns player. Yes, people had issues with the Hue stuff, they had issues with Baker's other comments... but never have I seen the hatred transform into the monstrosity that it is now on Twitter and Reddit. People that supported Baker through everything in the past are really upset about these comments. They loathe the Browns and want us to lose badly... this isn't an understatement. Understandably so - there's no defense to these comments about Daniel Jones.
It's 100% official now - we are the villains. To some, perhaps in surprising fashion since we had every reason to dream of being America's team. It felt like destiny. But just as great things were expected of Anakin Skywalker from the jedi order, things took a sharp turn.
Don't feel sad, don't play the fence... you're either on this train or not. Embrace the hate and let it flow through you - this is who we are. I'm not holding back - Baker took us here and he's my QB... so F the world.

With that said, it is what it is. Baker better put up or someone is gonna make him shutup.
The same New York media that slammed the Jones pick is now butthurt that Baker Mayfield is doing it.
Yawn, who cares? That story does not make us villains, you guys get wayyyy too caught up in twitter fauxrage. Nobody outside of New York or Cleveland will even remember this in 24 hours.
Personally, I don’t really care either way. But yeah, hatred is inevitable once you start winning. Just win, baby.Personally, I enjoy reading all the butthurt Twitter comments.
I am fine with being the villain. It was always going to happen anyway with Baker at QB the second we started winning. He's the type of guy you hate when he's on another team.
