Police: Crowell's 'store-bought apology' not enough; may not staff Browns games

The Cleveland Police Department said Tuesday words aren't enough to undo the gruesome Instagram post made last week by Browns running back Isaiah Crowell.

Crowell apologized Monday, upon his team's request, after posting an image of a police officer having his throat slit by a masked man.

President of Cleveland Police Patrolmen's Association, Stephen Loomis, told TMZ Sports that Crowell needs more than a "store-bought apology" to undo his mistake in the eyes of the police.

"He needs to go to Dallas, help the families who lost their loved ones last week, write them a check, look them in the eyes, and give a heartfelt apology," Loomis said.

Loomis called the post as "offensive as putting a picture of historical African-American men being hung from a tree in the 60s."

He said if Crowell doesn't head to Dallas and make a donation, the police force will not work at Browns home games anymore.

"I will pull Cleveland officers, sheriffs, state troopers out of First Energy Stadium this season if he doesn't make it right," said Loomis. "You're a grown ass man, and you claim you were too emotional to know it was wrong? Think we'll accept your apology? Kiss my ass."
