Gawd, your such a dick.

In that same ESPN article:
But by the end of his tenure in the NFL's largest market, [Mangini] was being called moody, dour and controlling.
Remind us of anyone?

The only way this is going to work out is if randy doesnt play matchmaker with the gm he needs to play fetch the gm instead and go get what mangini wants and needs in a gm to begin fixing things..
If it happens this way i have a good feeling in my gut...
As for you jet fans go enjoy your faggy GM and new coach..oh thats right no good coach wants the job with an overpowering GM looks like shottenslimer is your man...

Isnt that what phil savage was a overpowering GM?
he made good on some of his trades but was not willing to delegate his power and that was his fall.

it is clear that randy lerner is only concerned about making a profit off of the browns and not winning a championship. he has made it clear over the past 6 years that job number 1 is to make as much money as possible. he has never understood what football means to this town and how much we are dieing for a winner because he is not a cleveland guy; he is a business man from new york. his dad was great for this city and knew how much the browns meant to this city.
i have grown up my entire life being a browns fan while my dad and his entire family are steeler fans from pittsburgh. every thanksgiving it is 15 steeler fans and me all by myself taking their crap. it looks like i will be taking their same crap for 4 more years because mangini is not the answer. i love how lerner said that he was "impressed" by mangini in his interview. he also said he was "impressed" by romeo. the only thing to look forward to now are two things; one being that mangini may do something right and draft ray maualuga. the other being that maybe in a few years the browns will still be in the same place they are now and randy lerner will say the words we are all waiting for; "i am selling the team."
this is one of the greatest football towns in america and we have nothing to show for it. it is time that we took a step in the right direction and rid ourselves of randy lerner for good. until then i will continue to root for the browns with everything i've got and take my lumps on thanksgiving.

Mangini was the best fit and probably the best young talent to be had at the present.
While other former unemployed head coaches were to good to come here we will be glad that we didnt hire a Cowher or Shanahan they would come with to many other loyalties to other franchises.
To me hiring a those 2 would be like hiring a Loyd Carr.

This is an awesome, awesome day.First of all, I want to thank that dude's mom for breaking the story.
1.) Tony Grossi needs to be enshrined in the Browns Hall of Fame as soon as yesterday. He has cockblocked Modell so bad that the evil MFer may never see the Hall.
2.) Randy Lerner grew a set of nads. He didn't make the poplular choice, he made his choice.
Apparantley we are now rivals with the Jets and the Patriots.
Not worried about the Jets.
It's a great day for Italian-Americans, people from Connecticut, guys with manboobs, and 3-4 linemen.
This dude started out as the copy boy for the Old School Browns and now he's going to lead the New School Browns to the Promised Land.
Doesn't get any better than that.

But it does bro, his name is Mangina!

I can live with this move as Mangini is said to be highly organized & Ryan as DC is a wonderful addition. A Head Coach MUST be surrounded with able assistants or he is screwed. I think Lerner may have it right this time. I also have a sneaking suspicion that the GM may already be decided upon & will be a guy EM can work well with. While we don't really know what will happen, I don't think it could be worse than we have seen.
Let's be open to a fresh start. We have more talent than was utilized this past year, so let's just wait & see what happens with them & whatever new pieces are added. I am very pleased that we didn't hire a tired old coach & got a young man who COULD be a long term solution. I am optimistic.

Mangini, who was against the pickup of Favre, sparred with the future Hall of Famer. Favre threw nine interceptions in the last five games, precipitating the team's free-fall. Johnson wanted Favre to return in 2009 and felt the chances were greater of that with a change of coaches.
Reminds me of the infamous Belichick/Kosar debacle that preceded the departure of the coach. Not exactly the same thing, but it still evoked the memory.

Y'know, reading about the press conference today made me feel a whole better about the move. Mangini seems relaxed and happy and his responses seemed genuine. A really nice way to start.
As for the stuff that really matters, there's a lot of reason to feel good about the future, the most important being the one Lerner cited: Mangini can hit the ground running since he has some experience.
He brings discipline, stability and intellect. Those are a GREAT place to start.
I'm excited!
(What other choice do I have?)

The Browns will play in the Superbowl in February of 2011.

I wasn't sure about Mangini, but after hearing his press conference today on the radio,
that has all changed. He has a sense of humor, and didn't seem to use one inane platitude. Not once.
Which is very, very refreshing after hearing Crennel DO it most of the time.
Genuine was a great word to describe him.
I figure we won't be squinting at the TV now during Browns games, while wondering "What the... are they thinkin?"

The one thing I like about Mangini is that when he drafted a rookie, he gave them a chance to play. He realy coached up the rookies and let them go out and play.
He stated while he was with the Jets that rookies make a few mistakes, but they are excited to play and play hard to impress the coaches.
I think one of RACs biggest problems was that he basically ignored our rookies. He didn't even want to play them on special teams.
