The Look On Johnny Manziel's Face When He Got Caught Flipping Off The Redskins Was Priceless

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/look-johnny-manziels-face-found-131345657.html

Redskins defensive end Brian Orakpo called it "hilarious," telling ESPN: "We were messing with him a little bit, just saying this ain't college and stuff like that. We were having a little fun. Manziel flipped us off. It was something funny. We were all laughing on the sidelines."

Browns coach Mike Pettine called the action "disappointing" but said it would not play a part in who wins the quarterback job.

The reaction among fans on Twitter is near-universal glee that Johnny Football now gets to do Johnny Football things in the NFL. Joe Theismann seems to be the only person who had an issue with it.

But Manziel has been famous long enough to know how these sorts of controversies work. So when he was informed by team PR person Rob McBurnett that ESPN caught him flipping the bird during the fourth quarter, he was visibly distressed at the thought of answering middle finger questions for seven straight days.
