Miller retiring

...reportedly due to the injury. Which begs the obvious question -- why the hell has he been toying with signing to play next season? I guess he was hoping for the best and keeping his options open. But the BS about not wanted to be a role player sounds pretty hollow. Steinburg says Miller may go into broadcasting or go into the sports representation business (which seems a little, um, interesting given Miller's multiple bungled contract situations).

Anyway, once again I'll say it -- this is all just fine for the Browns. The team already has a big distraction at QB this offseason, and the last thing they need is an injured Miller being a part of the mix, especially since in recent years has said some questionable things about management and Couch. Let the young linebackers prepare knowing they will be thrown into the fire; I think they'll be a pleasant surprise.
