    Sad someone dies but overall I don't care. The only thing I care about is whether or not his upcoming death launches him in the HOF. He still doesn't deserve regardless of whether he is living or not.

      He's already dead. Son confirms.

      Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

        Maybe him dying is what is needed to break this curse. The move has come full circle or some shit.

              I am not going to lie, when I saw the breaking new ticker on ESPN this morning I yelled out "yeaaaa". Which I immediately regretted. It was just my immediate reaction and probably that of 100,000 other Browns fans.

              The dude has family and my condolences go out to them. RIP.

                Actually, I heard his dying words were "For we cannot help agreeing, that no living human being, will ever yet be cursed with seeing, a Lombardi Trophy hanging through the Cleveland Brown's Stadium door. Quoth this dying Raven, 'May the Brown's see post-season glory, Nevermore.'"

                  Bullshit, you don't know dick. He moved the team because he lost money from the Indians moving from the stadium. Cleveland voters overwhelmingly approved the aforementioned tax issue to remodel Cleveland Stadium. It was purely about money asshole.

                    schmodell didn't care about "giving us good years".

                    It was always all about him, his prestige, and his money. The evil men do live alfter them.

                    But, it's only proper to say something decent at a time like this.

                    ........let's see...... oh, "..." no, that won't work either.

                    Something.......decent.... to say....

                    Okay. I've got it.

                    I hope he is doing just fine playing melted checkers, sitting on molten lava, with the devil, forever.

                    fart schmodell isn't even worth this thread. blech.😠

                        I wore a Browns coat to school (3rd grade) a day after they moved. I wore a Browns tie to school today (teacher) without knowing he had died. Talk about coming full circle. Although I'm not happy that he's dead, I don't feel any sadness by it. It's a weird feeling.

                          You all know Lerner Sr. helped Modell move to Baltimore right? Before he bought the Browns? Just saying.

                                  if art modell would have never bought this team we might never had won those championships way back when. he was an innovator. he drafted black players when it was frowned upon. he gave ozzie newsome the first black GM position.

                                  if anyone is going to hell it's the assholes that make fun of someone's death.

                                    I agree here, but don't you think that should of more reason he should kept the team here.

                                        That reminds me that I saw Margaret Hamilton perform live at The Cleveland Playhouse back in the 70s. She was up there in years at the time...in her 70s, but gave an outstanding performance. In that play, the name of which escapes me, she played an elderly lady being terrorized by an intruder, she played the heroine, not the baddy.
