                          Looks like that rumor I heard and posted on here last week was on the money :

                          http://thebrownsboard.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=28291&do=findComment&comment=384321

                          Didn't have the Bannor info though, I'm not too sure if I was ready to see him go yet because I don't know how involved he was with the fubar.

                          Glad to see Farmer is now GM,.

                          I'm wondering who's going to take over for Bannor, I sure hope it's not someone that's going to get us in a Cap bind again like we had in the past.

                                And Farmer...

                                This has restored the faith I had in Haslam when he bought the team. I didn't like the Banner hire, I wasn't thrilled with the Lombardi hire, and I didn't like the Chud hire...

                                I am pleased with the Haslam - Farmer - Pettine trio much more than that "extra fat" we just cut loose...

                                  Just thinking here, but this definitely changes the dynamics of whether or not Ward and Mack get resigned . . .

                                    I am the first to admit when I am wrong, to The Gipper, Zombo and everyone else who have called me out on my support of Lombardi/Banner...you were right, I was wrong.

                                      I don't think we need a Joe Banner replacement. We have a President to do the off-field stuff, and a GM to do the on-field stuff. It looks like Haslam plans to be the Owner/CEO based on these recent moves and his invovement this offseason. It's the same model as the Patriots use, and Haslam did a lot of consulting with Robert Kraft before he even bought the team, so I think this was his plan to begin with.

                                        Of course others will claim that this is just more evidence of dysfunction and instability. But as far as I am concerned, this is a good thing.

                                          Love that Lombardi is gone and Farmer is is in. I'll admit I'm one of the few that wanted to see Banner stay.
