Randy Lerner Needs To Make Cleveland Browns Top Priority

Browns Backers,  

Browns owner Randy Lerner does have a pulse after all! It only took him 11 games and QB Brady Quinn being out for the season for him to come to the point of even considering firing "Dumb and Dumber," I think he should hold off until his beloved Aston Villa finishes their season so he can sack manager, Martin O'Neill, that way it'll be a "Three Stooges" execution. 

Lerner needs to become become more involved with the Browns on a daily basis if he wants to make the Browns a success again. I highly recommend he take a meeting with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones so he can take notes, because he must be doing SOMETHING right.   

In my opinion, Lerner doesn't strike me as a NFL owner who really cares about his team, and while spending upwards to $130 million in salaries is nice, it is really hard to respect someone who prefers watching his second-rate soccer team get beaten by the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United, even Tottenham. is better than his prized Lions, who are nine points behind in the Premiership table.  

And while he is watching his mediocre team struggle on the Villa Park pitch, Aston Villa and the Cleveland Browns are very much alike in terms of being storied clubs with dedicated supporters and long standing bitter rivalries.

The Browns main rival is Pittsburgh, Aston Villa F.C.'s rival is Birmingham City. Aston Villa is also one of the most successful football clubs in English history, only behind Liverpool, Manchester, and Arsenal.  

Something about Lerner doesn't sit well with the most ardent Browns fan because while he seems more distant and aloof by not being in Berea as much as he is in Aston, he comes across as someone who doesn't seem to grasp running an NFL team.  

What Lerner should do when the Browns season finally ends is fire Romeo Crennel, because his 24-35 record is only the tip of the iceberg, the cluelessness, lack of emotion, in-game incompetence on top of the inexcusable benching of QB Brady Quinn who is now out for the season according to media reports, Lerner needs to anull this football marriage before it becomes a messy stillborn divorce.  

Phil Savage, despite his incidiary email, deserves to be retained because he has at least brought SOME talent through the draft with LT Joe Thomas, QB Brady Quinn, WR Braylon Edwards, and SS Brodney Pool, but his free-agent signings with the exception of LG Eric Steinbach, NT Shaun Rogers, RB Jamal Lewis, and WR Joe Jurivicius leave a lot to be desired. 

Lerner should up his reported offer up to $10 million to bring Bill Cowher back to Cleveland, by any means necessary, and Cowher would have all the money and power he never had in Pittsburgh so he could stick it to the Steelers twice a year, how sweet would that be?

If it took the abysmal 16-6 loss to the Houston Texans to finally get Lerner's attention then so be it, but all every Browns fan asks of him is to become more involved in your REAL football team in Cleveland, that has the best football fans in the world putting more money into your pockets, because if you think the empty orange seats you saw on Sunday were a concern, then you have no clue about Browns fans! 

Arsenal FC in the house!!
