Yeah, LA is a good spot. This franchise is a joke and embarrassment. Move them to LA before they completely ruin the Browns name
LA is a good spot for what?Yeah, LA is a good spot. This franchise is a joke and embarrassment. Move them to LA before they completely ruin the Browns name
Certainly not an NFL franchise, hell they lost 3 teams already.

He has said in many interviews that he has no interest in coaching again. He likes doing just a bit of tv work during the week...working an NFL broadcast on Sunday and going home to his family on Sunday nights and like all ex-coaches who go into broadcasting.....he says I haven't lost a game in years.
What you say and what your heart tells you can be two different things Mark. He has also said on numerous occasions he would love to coach Manziel, warts and all. I think he is aware that it is undertaking transforming a problem child into a responsible adult and uses his experience with Brett Farve as a parallel process. He's even said he would enlist Farve to help him get thorough to JM. That does not sound like a guy truly done with coaching. Farve was JM's idol when he played in junior high and high school, so lets hope he follows directly in those footsteps from addiction to stardom.

I was referring to Billick not Gruden. I agree with you on Gruden. I think he will coach again somewhere. I'm surprised he didn't jump at the Notre Dame job a couple years back.

And they'll have 2 more NFL franchises in the next year or so.

You children. I guess history was not the strong suit of many of you.
On January 12, 1946, Dan Reeves was denied a request by the other National Football League (NFL) owners to move his team, the Cleveland Rams to Los Angeles and the then-103,000-seat Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.[1] Reeves threatened to end his relationship with the NFL and get out of the professional football business altogether unless the Rams transfer to Los Angeles was permitted.[1][2][3] A settlement was reached and, as a result, Reeves was allowed to move his team to Los Angeles.
Been there, done that!

Ive been waiting for that.....but Jimmy is pretty freaking quite......(which doesnt bode well for Pettine or Farmer)....
The good part of that, is that he's kind of proven out NOT to be the "tampering owner" everyone was implying he was.....

He may have done it already without media attention. You know that would raise a distracting shitstorm.

I think he made the rotten jonny pick but can't blame him. If I just bought an NFL team I know I would want to kick the tires some. I also think he learned a valuable lesson too and has let football be up to football people.

Know all about it. Not gonna happen. That is more analogous to the Modell situation.
But, in that case....the city did not fight to keep the team....and there was no ironclad lease. The city knew that it was getting a Paul Brown run organization to replace the Rams.
And that team's owner knew the handwriting on the wall when he knew PB was coming to town. So he skedaddled. Good move for him? Sure, probably.
And as far as I am concerned, the Rams should probably have always stayed in LA.
