It was always funny when Forrest Gregg got brought up to Doug Dieken on his and Jimmy Donovan's Browns recap show. (Which sadly isn't on now)
He hated Gregg something fierce. Safe to say he wasn't a big fan of his coaching style. ?

I heard that was pretty consistent among the players at the time. He wasn't here long from 75-77.

Believe it or not, I went to the game where Joe Turkey Jones slammed Terry Bradshaw and the Browns won. Having said that, back-up QB David Mays filled in for Sipe that day and got the win. He was a black QB (who was also a Dentist before or after his short stint with the Browns). Their Head Coach that year was a former GB Packer - Forrest Gregg. The Browns finished with a 9-5 record and did NOT make the playoffs that year. That was kind of like the 2007 Browns that had a 10-6 record and didn't make the Playoffs.
Forrest was a great player for the Pack. He was head coach in Green Bay for 4 years about 10 years after you guys had him. The only good thing about Forrest as a coach was his extreme hate for Ditka and the Bears. Forrest and Ditka had an actual fight in the tunnel going in for halftime of a preseason game.?
Dave Mays never started any games for the Browns? I think he played in Buffalo after the Browns.

? To the part in bold above. Love him or hate him, Ditka was hilarious! As for Mays, I don't remember too much about him before or after that game in Cleveland.

In a thread about Paul Brown, I'd be amiss if I didn't say to the out-of-town guys on here that if you ever find yourself in NE Ohio (maybe for a Browns home game road trip) you need to not only hit up the Hall of Fame in Canton (duh) but you need to go next door to Massillon on a Friday night and catch a game at Paul Brown Stadium.
You won't believe you are at a high school game. What a great old stadium, hell, they have a helluva indoor practice facility. As far as I know, the Cincinnati Bengals still don't have one, but this high school does. ? (Edit: Apparently the cheapest team in the NFL finally burst into the 20th century and got themselves a temporary indoor practice facility this season, and are building a permanent one soon. Not sure if it will have indoor plumbing, but baby steps...)

Yep... Massillon game Friday night, Saturday at the Hall of Fame, Sunday up in Cleveland. Not a bad way to spend a weekend!
I and the rest of the NE Ohio guys are spoiled. Its a fantastic region for football. I've seriously thought of going to a different HS game in NE Ohio every week for a season - hitting up games from Youngstown to Steubenville to Massillon to Cleveland and making a blog about it.
