I went in to edit again cause every time the editors go in they never take to set the page breaks correctly. All the text was showing up in HTML code so I backed out. I'll wait till the dust clears and then go chek it again later.
Clearly the latest editor didn't get the memo that this was a series by which our fans know us.

Eric Mangini has been an utter failure in Cleveland.. A big part of that has been trying to be like his former mentor, Bill Belicheck.. Heres a message to Eric: He Will Never Be On Belichick's Level. Appreciate any feedback you can give on this piece.
