  • Hopefully that the team will stay in Cleveland. As that is where they need the Dog Pound as it is called.

  • Somebody shake me... Wake me up from this... say it ain't so, Randy, don't go... 🙁

    Randy,

    You have been here from day "one". Okay maybe your Father was the original owner but you've been around since the beginning. I started my Browns' Fandom in '99 when they came back. We owe a lot to your Father. He "passed"- before we could thank him with a Championship, he passed that on to you. Please, Randy, reconsider. This ship that's been sinking for such a long time, We- the fans, have been right here with you. This is the time, this is the time we finally hit the smooth sailing. It's been a rough stretch of water for some time. We've been through a lot together. Once a Brown, Always a Brown. It means something to ME that you stay to see through what your Father entrusted to you. I think we are getting there, BE STRONG, we have all been tested, all of us fans have considered that we might not have it in us, to be loyal and continue to support THE CLEVELAND BROWNS, yet WE REMAIN loyal and stand ready to take on all-comers. Stand with us Randy Lerner. Give us this last chance to prove that- yes! Once a Brown, Always a Brown! The rough part is over, STAY HERE and let's REDEEM The Cleveland Browns' Legacy TOGETHER! For Your FATHER! THIS YEAR, THIS YEAR THAT IS RIGHT NOW!! GIVE US THIS- THIS LAST CHANCE- FOR ALFRED LERNER!!!

    Are you serious dude, i kept waiting for the tip off that it was sarcastic. You should delete that shit because it is embarrassing.

    Randy Lerner is a tool and his Dad the saintly Alfred Lerner was driving the get away car that Art Modell used to take our football team to Baltimore.

    The Lerners wont be missed.

    Oh yeah I'm just kidding

    Fixed it 😁

  • Randy never had the moxy to run the browns football organization anywhere but into the ground and i think he is a real douche for not handling the sale of the team either before training camp or waiting until after the season..

    Not a real classy move by either of these guys imho that is all it has done is cause a distraction for the coaches/players and whipped the city and fans into an angst of the team leaving town or being controlled by the stoolers...

    Well, now we finally know who "Poetic G" is:

    Zombo

  • Gips...so randys a douche for honoring his dying fathers wishes and waiting 10 years to sell the team?

    You sound like a swell guy....

  • I don't know about that, but as for the timing, I doubt the selling of a billion dollar sports franchise can be done inside a timed window.

    I think it happens when it happens. It would have been nice had this happened in January, but for whatever reason it didn't or couldn't.

    This isn't like deciding to sell Ole' Betsy out in the driveway for $3000.

  • Good riddance, Lerner, you scarf around the neck wearing wanker twonk.

  • Shut the actual fuck up. Everything you say is just flat out annoying.

    @tim-couch-pulls-out said:

    Shut the actual fuck up. Everything you say is just flat out annoying.

    PG, your optimism is nice, your sense of reality isn't. Seriously- what if your man-crush Richardson blows out a knee before the season starts? I haven't forgotten about Ki-Jana Carter.

    I don't know why Lerner is ditching the Browns- but his track record as an owner sucks. Period. You hoping the blind squirrel finally found the acorn in Holmgren and Heckert? Cusp of turning things around? When the pundits have Cleveland as the worst team in the NFL. Well, I guess if you're at the bottom of the barrel, the only way is up, no? Lerner sure hasn't endeared himself to a lot of fans going across the pond to bankroll Aston Villa either.

    @jppt1974 said:

    Hopefully that the team will stay in Cleveland. As that is where they need the Dog Pound as it is called.

    Not to fear- the as Fred Nance (who wrote the contract when Modell bailed) said "the Browns can't go anywhere until 2029 at the earliest".

  • poetic g spot

    you took such a beating over your man love for Trent.

    Your mission is to be annoying forever???????????????

  • An NFL owner that has more interest in soccer provides yet another reason to laugh at Cleveland.

    I'm tired of everyone laughing at us.

    Get the eff out Lerner and go tend to your sissy soccer team.

    All indications are that this deal has been in the works for months and months. They put the kibash (sp.?) on it getting out in May, and it was probably well into talks even at that time. I don't think there is such a thing as "good timing" in a deal like this.

  • Yo, don't get me wrong. I have been watching the same team as you have for longer than 10 years. I love this team right now. Joe Haden. Rubin, Taylor, Sheard, Benard, DQ, Miava, Momass, Cribbs, Dawson, Thomas, Mack, Ward, Little, Richardson, Gordon, McCoy, Watson, Cameron, Hodges, Weeden, Skrine... okay, it's getting a little thin... of a lesser extent- GoCong, Patterson, Hagg, Pinkston and LavaMan. Smelley looks like a Vickers type to me. Now this is where it gets me... Lawrence Vickers.

    Lawrence Vickers. One of my all time favorite Browns. I bet if we really tried we could bring back Vickers. Imagine Vickers blowing the LB's back 3 yards while Richardson SCOOTS through the hole. What about Hillis and Richardson together... So, I guess I kinda understand where the proponents in favor of selling the team stand. What I don't like about Lerner is that he wouldn't make that executive decision to keep Vickers even when Vickers pleaded to him and stated his case in remaining a Brown. Vickers called on Lerner, and he let Vickers and I both down. So I've changed my decision...

    This is what I don't want to happen. I don't want somebody who has a stake in Pittsburgh. Lerner wasn't what I'd like him to be but at least he had some class. He's just like a Steeler bandwagon Fan but with 'lots more money'. I want somebody who is a Brown... at heart. Even if this guy from Tennesee, that holds stakes in Pittsburgh, that clashes with his monopoly, that suddenly wants a piece of the Browns because we're on the rise... and we have been for a while now. Maybe not in the final score but in that nearly every team that played us, know'd that'd they'd play'd us. We left a mark, and many a times we crippled the Steelers into the playoffs. Maybe we haven't been successful in the wins or whatever, but we've stayed true to Cleveland.

    This is Cleveland. We are on the rise. We are headed in the right direction. Do not blow this FO up. Holmgren - Heckert - Jauron - Childress - "hopefully" Shurmur.

    So, you see, when an NFL teams comes up for sale....the fat cat must pounce.

    Edit note: highlighted ones are teams that had real ownership changes since 2000 (not inherited)...though note: Biscotti option predated 2000.

  • I just wish Randy would WAIT a little longer to sell. We are on the CUSP right now of becoming a winning Franchise. Just a little longer Randy and you'll have many more potential buyers, ones that actually CARE about the Browns as more than just some income-stream for some already wealthy guru....

    ...The Cleveland Browns are worth more than that...

    No one but an already extremely wealthy "guru" can afford to pay a billion dollars for an NFL franchise.

    Read the ESPN article PG. Lerner wants to go over to the UK to be with his real love Aston Villa. Let him go. I don't particularly like the idea Haslam has no ties to the area- but a lot of very successful NFL owners don't either. Jerry Jones is from Arkansas, Pat Bowlen- Wisconsin.

  • Sale is complete now. The team was sold forr 1 billion $'s. Sorry for ruining your wet dream Poetic G.
