Looks like DA wasn’t too happy with getting ripped on in the media and by Browns fans, as it took him all of one day to say he’s sorry for saying that the Browns fans “don’t deserve a winner”:

One day after Derek Anderson ripped the Cleveland Browns in an e-mail to the News-Herald where he said they “are ruthless and don’t deserve a winner,” the former Browns quarterback has apologized.

Anderson issued a statement today through former Browns public relations staffer Amy Palcic.

Here’s what he had to say:

“I said some things to Jeff Schudel (News-Herald beat writer) earlier that I regret. Those of you who got to know me personally from covering the Browns over the past five years, know this was out of character for me. I wasn’t taken out of context, but I was speaking out of my frustration after my career with the Browns came to a close.

“I had some great times playing in Cleveland, especially during the 2007 season and I met some great people and made many lifelong friends along the way. I’m looking forward to starting a new chapter in my life.”
