well back then Pete Franklin was a king in Cleveland, before internet, ESPN, if you were hungry for sports this is who you would listen to.....he was the one who started 35 states and half of Canada for WWWE 1100......

You have not had a team for 17 years, were does that put your NFL team thread?

If the Browns draft a TE any higher than the 6th round, I will eat my hand.

Pete Franklin was one of the all time greats. That being said, dude was a prick.

I think that's a pretty safe assumption. Not wanting to comment on his feelings about Colt pretty much says it all.

I was really surprised by Lerner's comments. They pretty much reeked of "we're going to make a splash at QB...Colt's not 'the' guy." If that truly is the case, he didn't help Heckert/Holmgren's smokescreens.

And then Tony Grossi's tweet regarding Lerner... "He's a pathetic figure, the most irrelevant billionaire in the world." which he immediately erased. Reporters are entitled to their opinion but that was a bit out of line. If I'm Holmgren, I'm pulling Grossi's press pass.

Pretty pathetic to erase a tweet. Stand behind your comments or don't comment at all. I agree Holmgren should send him away.

I think Grossi just needs to QQing because Lerner didn't give him the interview.

Kiper's latest mock has the Brownies taking RG3 with the 4th pick.
