What a complete embarrassment. When canidates tell you they're are not even willing to come in and listen, thats a problem.

This of course made me think of...

What a mess up there in Cleveland. Those poor fans have been through so much BS. Farmer is a solid guy who's been around a long time. I remember him in Hard Knocks Kansas City.

Firing Mike Lombardi and Joe Banner: What really happened? | Dawg Pound Nation (http://dawgpoundnation.com/2014/02/11/firing-mike-lombardi-and-joe-banner-what-really-happened/)


I have a feeling that Jimmy Haslam is doing some side PR work with pieces like this. He's basically trying to take the heat off himself and say that Banner/Lombardi were forced on him when buying the Browns.


The problem with this shit job is that Lombardi didn't come until a year after he owned the Browns. He also is the one responsible for hiring Chud and allowing him to be fired.


Jimmy is trying to deflect blame so he doesn't get branded as the next Dan Snyder/Jerry Jones.

I talked today to a couple of friends of mine associated with the Browns (in the past and present) and they were both ecstatic about this move. I mean I was surprised how delighted they were. They said Banner was not a football guy at all, and Lombardi was mediocre. They both said this is the best thing that's happened to the team in years

I'm not saying they are bad moves, but firing somebody after one year on the job is moronic. Why even hire them to begin with if you are doubting their ability to begin with.

Hell, any GM that gets a 1st rounder for Trent Richardson is doing alright in my book....lololol
