Let me try to wade through all the funny stuff and try to speculate on a few things that might give you a legitimate answer.
A. Rander Lerner is the owner of the Browns, the Villa team, and he is also now involved in some real estate development on Long Island. He also still keeps his hand in on The Bank of America to whom he sold his MBNA business. He also is involved in several charitable organizations in the UK, in the New York area, and here in Cleveland. So, from a business perspective, I would say that he is spread somewhat thin, like too little butter on a piece of toast.
B. His personal life is also spread about as thin. He owns a home in Armagansett NY in the Hamptons of Long Island. I think he owns some kind of castle in the UK. And he has a place here in Cleveland. He has 4 kids. Three of them live in NY with his ex-wife. One of them lives here in Cleveland where he attends St. Ignatius and plays football (not futbol, football), and Lerner bought a place in Ohio City in Cleveland near where his son goes to school. As I understand it, he spends at least 2 days a week here in Cleveland (where his mother and sister also live...in Shaker Heights), he spends time in NY with his other kids, and of course he travels frequently to the UK.
In fact, of all the wealthy people that live in the Hamptons, and there are very many wealthy people in that part of the country, Randy Lerner is THE most frequent flyer out of the Hamptons airport on his private plane than anyone else.
So, I guess the bottom line answer is that Lerner is probably preoccupied a bit, particularly with his children. And since he is spending more time here, the Browns may be getting a little bit more of his attention, not that him giving them more attention has been productive for them.
(and FYI, it was Lew Merlitti, who is now the head of Browns security and who also used to be the head of the US Secret Service that encourage Randy to send his son to school here at St. Ignatius rather than some prep school on Long Island or elsewhere. And by the way, St. Iggy's won the State Championship in football....and has long been a national powerhouse in that sport)
A helpful answer at last!! Thats all I wanted - thanks
