Phil Savage fired
-
phantastick... make the rest of them gone too please
-
I had mixed feelings about getting rid of Savage. But now that he's gone, I'm excited about the possibility of bringing in Scott Pioli.
The next few days should be very interesting.

Let's hope that Lerner hasn't become enamored with Floyd Reese or any other mediocre GM candidate.
I'm predicting (as Shep did yesterday) that it's Pioli.

I could be wrong, but I don't think we'd have to wait for the Pats' season to be over to hire Pioli. Last year, the Falcons hired Tom Dimitroff in mid-January, weeks before the Pats' season ended.
However, things may be different in Pioli's case because
- he's a higher-level front office guy
- he may think it's somehow disrespectful to Belichick and the Pats to leave before their season is over.
-
As long as the new GM can hire his own coach is all I want, I don't want a GM having to play with his 2nd choice (not having the ability to pursue who he wants) like we did with Savage. I don't want that excuse to be able to be used. Tired of excuse I want wins.

Is this rumor really true?
-
WTAM mentioned it; said it may or may not be true
-
WTAM confirms that Phil is GONE
-
while savage isn't a great PR guy, he's a decent evaluator of talent who makes moves to get the players the team needs. we should have found a way to keep him on as director of player personnel or director of scouting.
and crennel absolutely killed savage's tenure here. the last six games have been some of the worst football i've ever watched sixteen minutes of.
-
Savage done enough to kill his own career, the email to the fan and how he handled the KWII staph thing. Think Lerner figured the team needed the clean slate image so the players will see change not just a cover up. plus it got Savage out of here on the cheap. plus maybe lerner figured no one would come here under savage.

Via WTAM it was Triv who called it; stating that 'believe me, Phil is no longer with the Browns organization'
-
I am wondering what this means in regards to Crennel. If Lerner is cleaning house so quickly, why haven't we heard that Crennel is gone? Might he being staying on in some capacity?

Triv may have got the story from the same PFT rumormill. Triv hates Savage more than Ghoolie does.
This would seem to be a newsworthy story, and i can't find it anywhere substantial. Anyone find it?
