| On the Edges of the Browns News Desert Posted: 27 Jun 2008 07:36 PM CDT There's not a lot of Browns or NFL news breaking around the internet, which will probably remain the case for the next three weeks or so. Here's some items of interest from the last couple of days… - Adam Schefter thinks that Koren Robinson might wind up in Cleveland. , Adam Schefter apparently doesn't know much about Phil Savage's approach to players who could have off-field distractions. "Need" doesn't always equal "want". This is a bit more logical than fantasy services tossing out the notion that Matt Jones would wind up in Cleveland, but still is something that I would tend to reject out-of-hand based on the team's past behavior.
- Webdawg at BrownsBacker.com always has cool stuff that he digs up or has sent to him. Here's an old article that Doug Dieken wrote for the publication that later became Browns News Illustrated. This pre-dates The Big Lebowski by a couple of decades.
- The good news in Baltimore is that there is absolutely, positively no way that training winged scavengers to run around your stadium can go wrong. Just curious: is David Modell still involved in the organization there? This has the stench of Modellian dumbassery all over it.
- In New York, success plus new stadium adds up to Personal Seat Licenses, which is causing a little uproar. Coincidentally, that's the same as the deal we got here in Cleveland, minus the "success" part. Fortunately, Mike Florio rides to the rescue with an editorial that both re-hashes years of similar columns, but comes with the added bonus of arriving fifteen years too late.
- Oh, please, please, please just shut up about LeBron and Nets. The national media seems to be unable to close their mouth and keep their drool contained at the notion of James moving to the east coast to hang with a rapper. I couldn't blame him… he's hardly making a dime here in Cleveland.
- Here's the most important news of the day. Of course, it has nothing to do with sports. We're all sports fiends here, but, seriously now, does it ever?
