Did you watch the last half of the season.se-alum;1559250 wrote:I think the "giving up" and "lost the locker room" are just cop outs for the front office, because it's an excuse they can use that fans and analysts can't really disprove. However, it seems as if the players are doing all they can to disprove it.

Get the fuck over yourself. He posted what he heard, I posted what I saw that was a little bit different. Isn't that the point of a message board?SportsAndLady;1559254 wrote:Oh you mean there's conflicting reports out there and nobody outside the front office knows what really is going on?

At least I added some information to the discussion instead of trying to start arguments with every poster that I don't like in hopes to run them off of the thread.

I gained alot of respect for the Cleveland media today.se-alum;1559264 wrote:Steve Doerschuk ‏@sdoerschukREP 2h One verbatim question to Haslam: "Can you assure the fans they don't have The Three Stooges running this organization?"
At least they didn't sit there and allow themselves to be lied to by those buffoons.
Haslam was visibly embarrassed and pissed about that question, and I think it is great. Gives him a small taste of the outrage the fans deal with on a weekly basis because he insists on employing bran dead people like Banner/Lombardi.
I also loved the question about why the GM of the team is essentially in the witness protection program and is neither seen nor heard from. Joe Banner said "he hadn't really thought about it."
It's amateur hour in Berea right now.
I just want to know when the grown-ups are allowed to come in and clean up the mess.

I thought management did a good job today of taking the blame. They didn't blame it all on chud. They admitted they made a bad choice as well. NOW they can't miss. This one has to work. They have a good core of players and 7 picks in the first 4 rounds. They have to make them count.

I'd argue that the former is actually more important than the latter. You start the revolving door shit, you'll never get a top guy except by dumb luck.Crimson streak;1559298 wrote:This. The most important coach hire/ draft since we have come back.

It was bush by the guy calling them the 3 stooges. Hilarious guy, was it worth peaking your career at blog sites from here out? I expect that from a message board troll.
I wanted Chud to succeed. But it was clear he didn't have it in him when among other things you have josh Gordon on the sideline during an onside kick. Or yesterday letting a 4th and inches turn into 4th and 5 with timeouts to burn.

And shame on the Browns players and all their Chud ass kissing. The right answer they should collectively say is.."we as players srunk this year, and as a result, the coach gets fired for poor performance." That's the way it works.

They guy didn't make up the question and ask it. He was actually speaking for the fans from his companies Facebook page, and took the question from there. I think it's valid considering that's a question most fans have at this point.bases_loaded;1559301 wrote:It was bush by the guy calling them the 3 stooges.

The guy said he worked for 19 right? Considering they are basically a tabloid, nothing from them is surprising.
But this wasn't out of bounds. As mentioned, he clearly stated "this is what fans are saying on our Facebook: your thoughts?". If you're going to ask something like that, that's how you do it.

Yeah, i would rather people go over the top with ridicule than to lob up softball questions like the norm. That guy did exactly what he wanted to do and he gave me a laugh...so no complaints.

This. All you have to do is compare them to the Jets. Both teams had nothing to play for the past two weeks. The Jets saved their coach's job... The Browns got blown out by two non playoff teams.Footwedge;1559304 wrote:And shame on the Browns players and all their Chud ass kissing.

No problems with that question either... You do something like this, you better be able to take the heat. This front office has balls at least. They dumped Trent amid all the criticism...and in retrospect, it was a very good call. They dumped Chud amid all the outrage... And we'll have to wait till next year to see if they are vindicated.wes_mantooth;1559387 wrote:Yeah, i would rather people go over the top with ridicule than to lob up softball questions like the norm.

The thing with Chud was their screw up. It might be bold to get rid of him, but they are the ones who hired a guy they determined to be so bad he didn't even deserve a 2nd year.

I'm confused on why It's Chud's fault that we had no QB capable of playing in the NFL once Hoyer went down...
