Remember. Larry Johnson owns the Broncos.

- What player are we talking about? "He has collected guns for a long time, and three years ago he took a test in Florida that allows him, while he’s in his home state, to carry his loaded Glock .45 in his glove compartment, his .357 Magnum in his duffel bag, his .380-caliber pistol in his pocket."

- The Rocky Mountain News asks if the Broncos are ripe for an upset today.
- Chris Mortensen of ESPN is reporting that Browns' sources tell him the team has been looking very closely at Marty Schottenheimer as a potential coach in 2009.
Let's GO Chiefs! A win today will just make it even more difficult for Denver to clinch the division title.
Marty And The Browns
I’m not sure I’d put much stock in that. If Mortensen’s getting his scoop from Browns sources there’s a good chance it’s coming from one of Phil Savage’s management team since the Browns owner tends not to give interviews and while Savage may want to hire Marty, if Savage gets the boot this year along with Crennel (which it has been widely reported that he could) it won’t matter who Savage wants to hire.

Who was the GM for the Browns that hired Marty the first time?
Correct me if I am wrong, but he was fired after the Mack fumble wasn’t he? If so, has a head coach ever gone back to be the head coach again from a team that fired him once, in the NFL?

Fired, No
Coaches have gone back to their previous teams before.
And this is actually a different team. The Browns team (owned by Art Modell) that fired Schottenheimer before is now the Baltimore Ravens. So there shouldn’t be bad blood…the only thing that’s the same is the team’s name.

Good Point, Modell

That's still weird
all of the franchise records by former great Browns players are actually part of the Ravens…
PVChiefsfan - December 7, 2008
Nope
That was a condition of Modell’s move to Baltimore…the records for the Browns stay with the Browns franchise in Cleveland. The Ravens records start from scratch and the Browns records simply have a gap in them.

Back To Marty
ESPN made the rumor a front-page article and from the way they stated the story it sounds as if Randy Lerner’s the one interested. So maybe Marty does end up back in Cleveland. He’d be a good fit for them.

daamn riight…

Read My Mind
I read that article about Gray in the paper and immediately saw him wearing a black leather trench coat with his various armaments tucked away…I think we should give him a shot, anybody paranoid enough to have three guns on him probably won’t get sacked from the blind side that often, even with our OL…haha

I think the Funk is getting too much of the blame.
Let not forget it was the city council that prioritized some bogus volunteer law.

The Funk Is A Crackpot
Anyone who engages in a lawsuit with the city because he cannot stand to be apart from his wife (who, by the way, is being sued for doing things that would rightfully have gotten any other volunteer fired if they weren’t banging the mayor) has lost all sense of perspective.
I thought Funkhouser got a bad rap with the whole auto dealership thing (when they loaned the city a car). But his behavior over the last few months isn’t remotely responsible…the man’s incapable of working with other people, he’s lost all perspective, and he’s the kind of guy who gives libertarians (his general political affiliation) a bad name. Before he was mayor he worked in a job for the city where he never had to work with others to lead effectively, and now we’re seeing why those guys struggle once you put them in charge of other people.

A Mayor's Job Is To Represent His Constituency
It’s not to bog down his office in petty squabbles with the city council because they told him his wife can’t work for the office. He should be focusing on other things but he’s petulantly refusing to play ball with anyone until they cave to him on an exceedingly minor issue. Plenty of cities have anti-nepotism laws on the books and the council passed the law through appropriate channels, and if he wants to protest this one that’s fine…but it should be one of the lower priorities of the office and he’s turning it into a national story.
