Ha I don't disagree, it did have some interesting stories in it though. Isn't a quick read. 

I read it and it wasn't that bad.  #1 lesson is Dorsey needs to keep Haslam out of any decision making, which it seems like he has done so far.  We all already knew this.

This article is good panic porn for those that are worried about Haslam.

When Haslam came in, and sold his shares that he had with Pittsburgh, he said he wanted to model this team in the 'Steeler Way." Up until this hire (Kitchens) he's done the exact opposite of what the Pittsburgh franchise would. 

Am I saying I want this to be "Pittsburgh West?" Hell no but there is something to be said for "letting the football men run the football operation." Even Jimmy Jones might have a few more Lombardi's if he kept his finger out of all the pies.

LOL, Hue told Haslam to get the fuck out of HIS office AFTER being fired.

Disagree with bolded. I mean it proved some of my worst concerns, Haslem is an imbecile. The way he handles business is absurd and shows a deeply insecure individual. Horrible look for the franchise, but I do think this article helps Dorsey. He can tell Haslem to STFU and GFH when he starts to get too involved. also puts other ppl on alert to avoid the snakeoils salesman at all costs.

Like I said it is panic porn and pretty much something for people to get riled up about.  It was nothing more than what we already knew.  That's why I don't think it is that bad.  It's not shocking. 

Would love to steal him

For some reason, I'm now imagining Hue as Milton from Office Space.

After he was fired, the players were referring to him as "Michael Scott."

I assume this is the author of that article, because he is just rehashing what said in it? 

God I wish the season wasn't over. Nothing to look forward to, sports-wise, until the Browns start up again....

I'm looking forward to FA & draft talk. I love the wheelings and dealing of the NFL.

Not sure what prompted this....

Take responsibility for your shitty decisions TP.

Would like to thank the NFL for making Saquon Barkley offensive rookie of the year instead of Baker. Gives him yet another chip on his shoulder.

Also, they can GFT for tho. Baker won rookie of the week like 7 times, yet he’s not rookie of the year? Ooookay

Not to mention Baker broke the rookie TD record despite not starting the first 3 games.  Bullshit decision, but as you said it's another chip to add on his shoulder.

Not to mention that Baker's production netted a 7 win increase versus 2 for Barkley. QB is also the toughest position to play in sports. Oh well, a pissed Baker is a very good Baker.

Browns tied for 8th at 20:1 to win the Super Bowl next year.
