Possible Browns GM
Is anyone having déjà vu yet?
Obviously I don’t feel good about that. Who could possibly feel good about that?
I did some number crunching on how coaches do in their second NFL job as compared to their first. Aside from Bill Belichick and Tony Dungy, the answer is that they’re about the same. So unless you think Mangini is the next one of them, expect a lot of 8-8 or so.

January 5th, 2009 at 8:30 pmI no longer live in cleveland, but there is no way to purge myself from being a fan of the sorry Browns! That being said, Eric Mangini? Please say it aint so. Another fat, overpaid underachiever is not what Cleveland needs. Why not try a thin guy who at least has the discipline to push himself away from the table! You never know, but at least a guy who looks professional on the sidelines might help our “discipline-free” team to at least train and play like they give a hoot!!!!!!!!!!!
