A legendary Cleveland athlete is reportedly canceling his season tickets for the Browns following the trade for Deshaun Watson.
There’s been some backlash against the Browns following their trade for Watson, who has been accused of sexual misconduct by more than 20 women, but is facing no criminal charges.
Former Cleveland Indians star Jim Thome is reportedly canceling his season tickets following the trade, per his wife.

She took to Twitter to make the announcement.
“Officially cancelled our Browns season tickets today and asked for a refund as they were paid in full. Very sad after 40 years as a fan, but this is my line in the sand. I believe women. Especially when there are 22 of them. That press conference did nothing to change my mind,” she wrote.
“They may not give us a refund. But I sent the letter today. If Browns won’t refund—-I will auction off every single game and publicly donate every cent to different women’s crisis charities in N.E. Ohio, raising awareness week by week during the season.”
