What will pissing off Feinstein do to the team, hurt their ticket sales in Maryland? OTOH, their presence at camp can create a distraction the team doesn't need. There's no downside to this correct decision, and potential upside.
Well that and the fact the browns don't base their decisions on one guy in the media not even related to the browns.

BREAKING: Cleveland Browns have agreed to terms with WR Miles Austin.

Confirmed on the FB page. Pretty pumped. IF he's healthy, he's a great pickup.

I definitely like Austin when healthy. Without looking it seems like he's hurt pretty often.

No, he can't get on the field.

I'm not against the signing, I just don't see how this really solves anything

Agreed. The big issue is losing a guy as great as Gordon. That is just going to be extremely tough to overcome.

..but just when everyone else is getting all dinged up he will return midseason fresh and tear it up.

I would have preferred the browns forced the bills to package Stevie Johnson with the trade up. Clearly they knew he was gone at that point.

I don't know why that's ironic. the Browns are a joke and they keep proving it time and time again . I didn't know Steubenville had a pro football team. your a dumb ass.

Is that Biggie? Keep on hating but Eastern Ohio has always been Pittsburgh territory. It also is Ohio state Buckeye territory but as far as pro sports go the only teams with any respect in Ohio are the Blue Jackets and the Reds.

Only since the late 70s early 80s. When the Browns were good the valley was orange and brown.

Pittsburgh pro teams were the only teams I knew growing up and I never changed teams not once ever. The Buckeyes had Woody Hays and Archie Griffen and the Ohio state marching band and the Michigan rivalry therefore the Buckeyes have always been #1 . Columbus is a great town and I like the Bluejackets. I have to respect the Reds because I grew up and the Big Red machine was great and the Pirate rivalry was the best with the Lumber and Lightning crew. As far as the Indians are concerned I loved the movie "Major League" and I did root for them to win a title. Truth be told I want the Clowns to do good and win if they aren't playing the Steelers. They just keep self destructing and doing the stupid things that keep them losing. I pulled for the Cav's until Lebron defected.

The Browns have about as bad ownership as the Clippers do. Goodbye Cleveland thread and I wont let the door hit me in the ass.
