Everything that Holmgren, Heckert, and Mangini have ever said about what kind of players they are looking for, i.e..... players who are not prima donna a-holes, would suggest that T.O. will never be in cleveland. That guy is over rated and inconsistent, which is why Dallas got rid of him. I'm not worried about it.

ummmm

I really hope that you don't think JOE Porter from the Browns practice squad is the same person as JOEY porter, who plays for the dolphins.

WOW, indeed.

remember the last time we could talk sh*t to steelers fans?

mangini

This is a typical example of how the media spins Mangini's comments into something they are not.

"We're going to look at the whole body of work and all of the different things -- and not just for Brady but for the group -- and see where we are and assess it at that point as opposed to doing it right now,"

It wouldn't be very exciting to write, "Mangini will be preparing for the draft like every other NFL coach by assessing the talent on the Browns."

OR....

Maybe Lerner is really a Vampire! Which would explain why he is media shy. And also why James Davis is out for the rest of the year.

The reason he continues to own the browns is to keep a constant supply of fresh blood on hand...yeah....that's it.

wow

First of all, badly is an adverb. Adverbs modify verbs. Such as "We played badly." He used it to DESCRIBE how he felt. Description words are called adjectives, like the word BAD, for example. This is 5th grade grammar!

just sayin.... if I was paid to write I would learn how to use the language we have all agreed upon.

now that's out of my system.

"George never had a chance to be successful — and maybe he wasn’t the most qualified person for the position -- but he never had a chance in Cleveland with “The Secret.” He was never able to gain the respect of the employees in the company because it’s difficult to lead people when there’s a refusal to communicate."

hmmm.....now what did Joe Thomas think about Kokinis ''.....he wasn't around too much, and when he was he was pretty quiet.''

how about Cribbs?

"When Cribbs was asked if he knew Kokinis, he said, ''Yeah,'' and laughed."

I guess that's Mangini's fault as well.

Perhaps Lombardi should take note and provide evidence to support his inane commentary.

"He was not involved in the Braylon Edwards trade, for instance, because at that point the Kokinis era was already over. Since the beginning of the season, it has been the worst kept secret (kind of ironic, right?) that Kokinis was going to be gone. He wasn’t happy in Cleveland from the beginning, working for his good friend “The Secret,” and the Browns were not happy with his work. This hiring was flawed from the start."

Absolutely no evidence given for any of this, just empty statements.

This article is drivel. All statement, no substance.

There just seems to be a total lack of passion in this team. The games are effin boring to watch. I could handle losing if there was some kind of fire in any of the players. Like you guys though, i can't really imagine getting behind any other team.

I am actually thinking about trying out for the browns next season. i can't tackle, throw, or run. I'd be perfect.

I don't think it was excessive at all if it teaches a dude how to not be a prick.

pay 3 bucks for your water like anyone else who is not a pro football player would have to.
