Holy smokes did Randy get it right?

McM-whatever, is crying the blues when the unfortunately reality is we're a results culture. Can you imagine the article he'd write if we released all the coaches only to hire someone inferior?
"The Browns, in their usual bumbling way, made a serious blunder. By letting their existing strength and conditioning coach out of his contract early he secured a job with a rival team. The Browns, left in the lurch, were forced to scramble and hired Richard Simmons for the job."

All I know is if Dave Redding (strength a/conditioning) is available we should get him...IMO Hes the best in the business.

There's actually a pretty bad article out about us right now, from a biased source (McManamon or whatever it's spelled like).
Kinda puts a sour tune on some of this nice music we're making.

12 people lost their jobs and it is unfortunate. I agree. But that is a drop in the bucket compared to the stuff going on every day.
Circuit City just dumped over 30,000 into unemployment. Banks are dumping thousands of employees every week.
If this guy is going to cry over 12...maybe he should take a look outside his rosey little glass hut.

Sounds like this guy has a ax to grind as much as anything else.

Yeah Peen I agree...Maybe Hes pissed because He didnt get the big scoop or something...Frankly...I find him to be a boring writer.

Could be....I was leanings towards he was hoping to land one of those jobs himself.
Maybe he isn't so upset those people were displaced, he is just ticked a position isn't going to be filled.
Newpaper writers are becoming a dime a dozen as newspapers are folding right and left as they become less important....and they weren't all they great paying jobs in the first place....being stuck as a indy spinning your tales on some net based news source has to be even less lucrative.
A nice job in the Browns PR department had to have sounded pretty good.

Yeah I had seen Him on STO with Michael Reghi who host's a weekly Browns show. So yeah I think your idea about the PR dept. is spot on But McMannamons personality is too dry and boring just like his articles are...Most sports writers and or sports jocks are always looking up the ladder for sure ...Hey if they can let an Idiot like Greg Brinda on the airwaves anythings possible

Newspaper guys are always looking for something better...it is more a stepping stone job than anything else for the vast majority.
The best you can really hope for as a sports writer is to become the local team beat writer...and those really don't pay all that well, and those jobs are usually held by the same people for 30 years or more. Timing and luck is as important (maybe more) in landing one of those than is any ability to put pen to paper.

I guess the only great perk about being a Sports writer is you work from home on your laptop....Type out your article and email it to the Editor then goes to the press dept.....Check is electronically sent direct to Your account....cant be all too bad...

Maybe that is how it works now.
I have known a few newspaper writers over the years and they had to show up at their desk, get their assignments from the editor of their section, or turn in whatever it was they were submitting as their next piece.
But that was in the smoke filled newsroom days with the editor chomping on his stogy..

I wonder if any of these staffers had anything to do with the PR problems the team had with all the Kellen Winslow stuff?
And yeah, if they aren't doing their jobs or their job duties can be split between others, it makes good fiscal sense.
The days of kicking everyone's butt at the line of scrimmage are over now
