Northcutt files grievance

There\'s a slim chance Northcutt will be successful. Even the player\'s union stayed away from this one and his agent (the guy who missed the date that apparently was right in the contract) had to file the grievance. \"Did not bargain with Northcutt in good faith\"? That sounds like a lame excuse.
I can\'t imagine that his contract will simply be terminated by a judge. At the very least the Browns might be forced to trade him at a lower price to get the distraction out of the way, but they\'ll still want something in return. Very unlikely he\'ll end up in New Orleans for the 2004 season IMHO (and not too sad about it either).
