Bentley?s career in jeopardy
By MIKE McLAIN Tribune Chronicle


BEREA ? When LeCharles Bentley signed a six-year, $36 million contract with the Browns last March, he couldn?t wait to remove his sports coat and reveal a Browns jersey when he was introduced at a press conference.

It appears that might have been the highlight of Bentley?s career with the team. Barring some unexpected good news on the patella tendon injury he suffered in training camp last July, the Cleveland St. Ignatius and Ohio State center will miss the 2007 season.

Worse yet is the severity of the torn tendon and the impact of a second surgery to remove a staph infection might end Bentley?s career, according to general manager Phil Savage. Speaking at a news conference Tuesday, Savage said Bentley is undergoing rehabilitation in Arizona. A decision on a third surgery will probably be made in May.

Very sad news. Let's hope it's not the end.

Sad to say, but I have simply lost all hope in seeing LeCharles suit up at center for the Browns again. If he does, it will be a blessing from the sky. Tough tough break for a classic Buck. Although, luckily for him, he signed that nice fancy contract right before perhaps ending his career with an injury. Better than getting the injury right before FA began.

I have mixed emotions about this attempt. As an OSU and Browns fan it would be nice to see him back. The reality is that I want him to have a normal life and this might ruin the quality of his life after football. I just hope he doesn't make a bad situation worse.
