Personally, I don't like the idea. When Modell was here a lot of people bitched and moaned because he cared to much and was alway being chastised for "meddling" (WTF?....it was his team). Now you have an owner who has all the money in the world, but doesn't get involved. What do you really want?....to persuade him to sell to someone like Dolan? Screw that.....I gave up on the Indians when he bought them. He was well known as being a cheap bastard that would never put a penny of his own money in to improve the team. Lerner needs to hire a football mind to hire / fire coaches as needed. I mentioned Kosar before, but really, anyone with a knowledge of how to build a winnig team would be good.

then why give him four years of guaranteed money? lerner is in love with this guy.

So now you see why everybody needs to get on board with Mangini and Co.

He's not going anywhere.

If he does, Lerner might sell for sheer embarrasment, not because of a petition.

i've said it before and i'll say it again: randy lerner is the biggest cancer on this team. he hired two head coaches in a row that nobody else wanted because he"was just so impressed by them." apparently he never knew two guys could be this terrible. i was 100% against the hiring of mangina and it appears right now that i was right. i really hope i'm wrong about him, but it doesn't look like it.

I have tried to think that randy wanted to do the right thing and wanted to return the browns culture to its once greatness but instead he has closed this team off from its fans more and more and has hired one bad anti-fan regime after another he nor the people he hires even have a clue as to what this team needs..to start this team needs an owner who lives in cleveland and understands the culture and how to hire the right people to nurish and feed it...fans are the most important part of the football family but the lerners only view us as revenue and idiots that buy their never ending bad product...fans need to take a break on sundays take the family to the park or do something with them thats worth doing because under this owner and his anti-social regime watching this imatation browns team or even watching mangini's fluffy garbage and lie filled press conferences just puts you in a depressed state that just after you recover from one does it again a few days later...cleveland browns football in all its history has never sucked so much and its not all just about winning...winning means nothing to me with this disgraceful outfit the owner ,the players and this regime have no passion for this game let alone the team ,fans or city..

I will never stop being a browns fan but i have stopped supporting lerners and the nfls wallet and ego...

I do want to buy into what Mangini's cooking, it just smells so bad right now. Patience is a virtue and i know its hard to come buy right now, but do you really think Lerner gives a rats ass about a fricken petition concerning his business.

Sometimes a look at history will give you your answers. Just what i thought, no petition has ever forced an owner to sell.

But shitty dealings did cause a team to move. Everyone here has the solution, right?

This board is due for a 'purging' of all the negativity. It sucks, but we knew it was coming.

This club has been turned inward by lerner away from the prying eyes of the fans and the media that adore it mr lerner and his administration treats the fans and the city as unimportant and irrelavent to anything concerning the cleveland browns except ticket sales..randy lerner doesnt live in cleveland or even ohio and lacks the understanding of what cleveland browns football is all about in general and to the fans personally..

Mr lerner fails to realize to browns fans this team is much more than just a business its a way of life with traditions and a culture that was like no other nfl city and he and his father have tried squandering it all away but the fans are not going to lay down and let it die NO the fans are going to step up and take it back...

@jadbf said:

Right but again, If Lerner doesn't feel he's being supported, he can choose to MOVE instead of selling.

That can't happen. Right Oakland? right? Anahiem? right baltimor?

If Lerner gets pissed enough, the NFL would have quite a legal battle in forcing him to stay.

So you can go right back to 1999 then.

The city could and would easily win the rights to keep the colors we would have to wait for another expansion but we would be rid of lerner as it is now we have no team ,no pride and no tradition anyways and enough is enough the lerners have taken a lot out of this once proud club and its fans but its nothing that cant be replaced with the right owner and a fresh start..

And support for this team will soon dwindle away to nothing personally i have no desire to see a live game under this ownership and especially this regime i havent been to a game in 3 years now and i wont be buying a sunday ticket next year or any more gear either i have 2 relics from this years craptastic idiocy of a coach all ready...i will watch the games by other means but not a penny to lerner or the nfl...

Its just a chance that has to be taken in an effort to preserve and restore real cleveland browns football...

I don't get the treason angle. It's a proposal for Lerner to sell the Browns, not MOVE the Browns. Big difference fellas.

What's wrong with wanting an owner who has the ability to pick a decent coach and run the team the correct way?

Specta

there is nothing wrong with what you've stated- but whining to a billionaire to sell HIS team screams of loserville.

a petition requesting a promise of effort, leadership, and accountability might be seen as slightly more credible.
