Well there's a nice surprise.
EM stays.

i wouldn't say i was surprised...more like relieved.

i like this pairing-a lot! mangini has balls and can make the hard decisions-he won't roll over for Holmgren if he doesn't agree>>decisions will be consensual. i also feel he will be a great mentor for Eric, sharing his offensive knowledge will only make EM better and more well rounded (and possibly give his defensive base even more insight).

i foresee a great relationship between the two that will last a very long time.

Friends, this is a landmark day in the Browns expansion era. Mark my words, this is the best thing for this organization moving forward. Holmgren, Mangini, and a competent GM. Let's do it.

Before I forget, I've got to get this out of my system:

Eff You Mike Florio

Eff You Adam Schefter

Eff You John Clayton

Eff You Braylon Edwards

Eff You Cris Carter

Eff You Boomer Esiason

Eff You Tony Grossi

Eff You Pat McManamon

Eff You Jamal Lewis

Eff You Rod Hood

Eff You Shaun Smith

Eff You Bud Shaw

Eff You Joe Posnanski

Eff You Joe SixPat

add Jamie Dukes, Phil Simms, Dan Dierdorff, and all the other Browns haters in the media as well!!

Viva la Holmgini/Mangren!!!

Just heard on the radio that Holmgren's agent didn't want him to keep Mangini. This tells me that despite the media's witch-hunt and advice from the guy in charge of his career, Holmgren made his own decision. This is very, very reassuring.

Here we come teams in AFC North! Lock up your inbred families because the Dawgs are waking up and stretching their legs! All that poking and tail pulling when we were sleeping is about to come up and bite you on the a**!!

Of course Bob Lamont didn't want Holmgren to keep Mangini. He was trying to get John Fox (another of his clients) in Cleveland. Lamont has a history of marrying clients together.

Thaak...of course he wanted a new BIG deal for one of HIS clients....silly non issue!!!

You are correct, it is a non-issue. I'm guessing that the majority of the "inside" sources about Mangini losing his job were Lamont.

hmmm never thought of it like that....

All makes sense.

I'm thankful that someone's agent couldn't interfere on the hiring process. These guys (agents) must think they are superstars with all of their power

Good call, Mikey. I did forget the guy who was benched in favor of Charlie Frye. How could I forget that superstar? Superstar jacka*s, that is.
