    Uh oh, don't post anything negative on. mangini, you will get these clones all fired up.

    Didn't you hear, mangini will be the first head coach to be inducted into the hall of fame with a losing record.

    Jeez Louise, can we lose the Jim Rome references. I hate that show 😵

  • It's just the same stupid media hype that has spoofed up all over the country. Really they are still just talking about the same articles that were written weeks and months ago. Some writer in Chicago that can't spell worth a shit is not spending his sunday watching the Browns and seeing all the positives, he is reading someone elses article, changing some words, and pushing it off as his own idea.

  • i think it's the time we live in. where everything factual is known seconds after it happens...........when there's nothing actually happening these internet 'journalists' (if you can call them that) just start swinging at the air and hope something connects, that way they look like geniuses. i give them as much respect as i give GALFREETS or FORMERLY STONE...........which is zip.
  • It doesn't matter what any of us believe.

    There is a chance mangini will be fired. You have to look at holmgren. He took over the browns football operation to turn this around. How many times do guys get fired because he is not his guy? Mangini isn't his guy.

    It will all come down to if holmgren can live with the difference in football ideals.

    True, but if Holmgren really cared about him being "his" guy...then there would have been no better time to fire him than last off-season. I don't think Holmgren coaches the Browns, ever. That's just my opinion.

    exactly AND homgren was hired to be the prez of the org NOT COACH. basically he's a manager and he's overseeing everything top to bottom. why would holmgren give EM a chance, see that the team is/has improved and then fire him. not very logical jim.

    i dont ever remembering hearing holmgren say that gruden was his "guy" either

  • AFC North final say

    James Walker: Mangini is doing a better job of coaching this year. But I think Holmgren's decision is yet to be determined, so it's hard to say either way. It will come down to the team's performance in these final four games. The next two weeks are huge. The Browns have to beat the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals, who are a combined 4-20. Beating the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers are much stiffer challenges. But the philosophical differences are legit, because if the Browns aren't winning enough under Mangini, the people in the front office can always point to what they would do different. If Mangini finishes 8-8, he should be safe. But if he goes 7-9 or less, that would place a difficult decision in Holmgren's hands.

    And trust me, Holmgrem and Gruden are close.

    o.k. i might show my age here.........BUT..........what the hell is a stipper?

  • I give up

  • http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=stipper

    Urban dictionary has no idea what you are talking about either, but i think well go with their first definition

    So howd did you happen to get a stripper name?

  • It was linked on OBR, thought it was worth bitching about. My personal opinion is this, since Choco so kindly asked for it: You can't argue that the team is more competitive. If they close strong, you can definitely make a case that Mangini be retained.

    However, Holmgren is the top of the food chain and we all know he doesn't like Daboll's offense or playcalling and that's an issue that isn't simply going to evaporate. Can Mangini and Holmgren find peace with Holmgren's offense and Mangini's defense? Maybe. Or maybe Holmgren falls on his sword.

    And my opinion on Haden has always been that he's very good. I didn't like the pick, which is different. I would have rather traded down a little, drafted Dez Bryant, and found a corner a little later. How do I feel now? I think the Browns are probably lucky I'm not the GM, because we have Haden, he's getting beastly, and we can draft our #1 WR next year. If McCoy is all that next year and Hardesty makes some noise? Pretty amazing draft for Heckert and one I admittedly wasn't all that stoked over.

    Choco... have I been saying shitty things to you? Do you not feel a little weird being an ass to me when I never say anything remotely nasty to you? I would, but that's me.

    That logic worked after last season. That would've been the time to fire him. The team is heading in the right direction and I don't think it makes sense at this point to go back and start all over again with a new coaching staff.

    No one that I watched the draft with thought that our draft was anygood until we got Colt McCoy in the 3rd since we thought we would get him in the 2nd. The only thing we could say was we will see when the season starts and so far we haven't been disapointed. It kind of sucks to see our 4th and 5th round picks not make the team, but Mitchel is still approving and Lauvao is too and I can't wait to see how good Hardesty is next year and well we all know how well the other three picks have worked for us.

  • no....i dont shep. not at all.

    its your demeanor....your agenda. leading up to the draft, thru training camp, and the beginning of the season we had to endure your opinion about this franchise cause youre so right all the time. now you skip back and forth between the boards with little gems like this to continue your attempts to assert your opinion...clinging to any evidence that may lay credence to you being right. while over at spec board, you defamed this board many...many times. they ran you out and you come crawling back like nothing happened. you failed to eat your crow there, and you wont do it here either.

    had you not run your mouth about us to the extent you did, i may not care. months and months of dawging haden cause you didn't like the pick. the kids in the running for DROY and not a xxxxing peep from you. what irks me is you still dont even recognize just how poorly your predictions and player evaluations are....you still think your shit doesnt stink.

    so, no shep. i have no problem calling it like i see it. you fight and fight with everyone and anyone to prove your correct, then move on to the next topic when your wrong. you ran from here cause we're ignorant assholes, ran from specs board when they got sick of your shit....just why the xxxx are you here? we were just fine without you....better without you. is your list of friends that short that u have nowhere else to go?

    xxxx that....

  • Wow, people are Retarded. You know I'm not sure why people take things so personal. People get so mad about opionions, the only people I truley dislike is steeler fans.

    imagine how boring this board would be if we all thought the same.
