Oh yeah, you are right about everything regarding sports turdo. Just like the time you said DBs aren't that important in the NFL, and they aren't worth big money. Richard Sherman's clinching play is the most recent example of you being wrong LOL.

This whole browns situation reminds me of the first part of this clip from a movie:

I called the Browns asking them to remove my name from consideration for the Head Coaches position.

Think Haslem gets it yet that people don't want to work with Banner/Lombardi?

They should just let Banner coach the team.

He is the reason no one wants to come here, so if they insist on keeping him around at least make him useful.

What is it going to take for Haslam to realize this guy is a cancer and a plague on this organization? How many times do we need to hear "NO" from prospective coaches before the light bulb goes off?

You are acting like you know the front office dealings? I didn't know we had an insider on the chatter??

#Niners coach Jim Harbaugh said #Browns did contact him about members of his staff. Refused to divulge which coaches.

Lol No.

Former head coach of Michigan State, and Arkansas before Bielema took over.

Was a tongue-in-cheek reference.

But I am available, and I do build a pretty unstoppable offense on Madden.

Would he suspend a player for talking trash? If so, HIRE HIM!

Please say yes. RT @TonyGrossi: Hearing #Browns may pop the question to Mike Pettine tonight.

Any Browns fan disappointed by idea of Pettine: He is probably the best defensive coordinator in football.

Lol would love to hear how he's the best DC in football..?

Don't know much about him, but that just kinda seems crazy to me

He would be a pretty legit hire IMO. He worked on the Ravens defensive staff for a good while and lead the Jets when they were worth a shit.

The 4 years he coached with the Jets, their defensive ranks:

2009: 1
2010: 3
2011: 5
2012: 8

And I believe they were a top 10 defense in Buffalo this year.

He might be the hire to fix the red zone TD% issues for the defense.... Then you won't need to draft the 8'3 guy to help stop it.

Yeah I did more research on him and it appears his defenses have always been pretty good. Always seemed to be the puppet who got a lot of the credit, until last year when his Bills' defense was very good.

Looks like a fiery guy, too.
