    If it's true why is it that the Onion is the only source reporting this...seems a little too high profile for only ONE site to be reporting on it don't you think???

    Who let the DAWGS out??

        I saw wrecking crews at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this evening.

          Too bad it's not April Fool's Day. Utter complete horse shit. Yeah- there's a yet to be revealed clause in Al Lerner's will that the Ravens be moved to Outer Mongolia, and be the key team in the new Chinese Football Association League. You heard it here first.

          As the FORMER owner of the Ravens Franchise Modell would only have 1\31 say on anything regarding the Browns. As a divested owner, he has\had zero zero vote in anything regarding League functions.

            Actually he has a 1% or 1/31st. He would have had the other 99% owner go along with him.

              Sure he can!

              And I put in my will that the Browns plane "must" crash on a west coast trip just so you stupid fucks will finally shut up "forever and always"

              I will write that will for you if you'd like. A person can put anything in a will they want....but, such a will can only legally dispose of the assets that the decedent actually has an interest in. Anything else is obiter dicta.

              You do bring up an interesting question though: What contingency plan does the NFL have in place if a disaster of that nature should occur? I suspect they would find "replacement" players if the event happened in the middle of a season. Then later they would probably hold a disbursement draft similar to an expansion situation.

                  Thanks, that made me laugh! The thought of you writing a will is hilarious. I can just imagine the pages and pages of frivolous BS, and the court throwing it out and taking the assets of the poor bastard you wrote it for.

                  I have written probably a couple thousand wills over the years.

                  If there is to be any frivolous BS in it, it would be because you wanted it in there. And you would be given the advice that it is indeed frivolous.

                  And, fyi, the frivolous part would simply be ignored with the appropriate parts being effectuated. And the court's take nothing from no one. If there is a dispute over where assets should go, that dispute would be between the putative heirs. If there is no dispute, those heirs will get their shares notwithstanding whatever other BS may appear in the will.

                  The question is whether or not what you put in there is BS.

                  Example, if you give 50% of your net estate to your dog and 50% to your kids an issue may arise as to whether the dog is legally entitled to have his "share" set up in a trust for his benefit, or whether it is legal for a dog to inherit in derogation of other "human" heirs rights. It may all depend on the laws of your state. In Ohio, beneficiaries must be humans...or charitable entities.

                  However, if you create an inter vivos trust, and fund that trust, and name a trustee to be the recipient of those funds and give that trustee the duty to apply those funds for the maintenance and welfare of that animal, that is enforceable.

                  So, in lieu of writing your will, I will prepare a trust for you....and you can leave your assets for the care and maintenance of all the members of The Dawg Pound.

                  $1500.00 will get it all done for you, including your pour over will.

                  However, I cannot draft a living will or a DPAHC for your dog.

                      Sure I can. But why should I? You wanted legal information, I gave it to you. You wanted humor, I gave it to you. You wanted abuse from fans of the opposing team, I gave it to you.

                      You should be grateful.

                      If you really want that inter vivos trust, I can give that to you as well. You can leave your dog out of it if you really want.

                      Call my office for an appointment.

                        For the uninformed masses:

                        I guess some peeps have never heard of the Onion before. Check out their web-site it's hysterical. It's satirical comedy not real news but a real paper.
