Coaching Search Over ... Already
After an extremely short coaching search, the Cleveland Browns have hired fired-Jets coach Eric Mangini, according to the team's website.
Randy Lerner wasted no time, that's for sure. Mangini was the first candidate he interviewed and I can't help but wonder what Mangini could have possibly said in his interview to win Lerner over so emphatically.
As I've stated previously, I was not on board with the idea of Mangini as the next head coach of the Browns. He seems like he'll be just another Romeo Crennel. But, we'll see. I am, of course, still a Browns fan and if Mangini is our new head coach, then I'll have to be supportive of him.
It does baffle me, I'm not going to lie. I mean, are qualified head coaching candidates in such short supply that Lerner is content to hire the first person he interviews? Also, I'm bewildered that he'd hire a head coach before he hires a GM.
All I can right now, while we wait for Lerner to hire a GM, is hope that Mangini turns out to be one of those NFL coaches that finds great success in his second head coaching job in the NFL after a failed first stint.
I think I can speak for most Browns fans when I say, "Welcome aboard, Coach Mangini ... don't screw it up!"
Check out the new Blawg Pound poll and let me know what you think about our new head coach. Go Browns!

Groundhog Day
As funny as that Bill Murray movie is, the situation developing with the Browns is no laughing matter. Has Randy Lerner learned nothing!?!?
Not only is Eric "Romeo Redux" Mangini rumored to be the leading candidate for the head coaching job, but now Baltimore Pro Personnel Director George Kokinis is said to be his pick for GM.
This is a Romeo-Phil Savage pairing all over again!
WTF, Randy? Say it ain't so!
The comparrisons between the four of them are outlined pretty good by the Dawg Pound Daily. I mean, come on ... has Lerner learned nothing?
My hope is, this is all just a big bluff and the real GM and coach will emerge from the rumors and lead this franchise to its much-deserved glory. I guy can dream, can't he?
