Well. Who would've thought a story like this could get so much attention? And, hey — even ESPN.com took off the web censors and let the AP's "as first reported by Deadspin.com" into its online copy. I'm flattered that they acknowledge our uncanny ability to carefully sift through our ...

It's rare that a real, live Obscure Brown gets the start at an offensive or defensive position, let alone a player that I only vaguely recall having heard of before, and who had to have played pretty well, since his name hardly came up during the game itself.

Cleveland Browns without Brady Quinn; mgrex30 cries in his pillow
Stampede Blue —
... Prior to Quinn's injury, he was playing well. It was always my opinion that Cleveland made a mistake re-signing Anderson. They had drafted Quinn in the first round, and one does not draft first round QBs to have them sit. They either got it or they don't, and wasting valuable cap dollars on a QB like Anderson was not a smart move for Browns GM Phil "F*@k you" Savage. I think Cleveland fans realize this because they are not stupid. Don't get me wrong: Anderson can be a good QB, especially when his WRs catch the friggin ball, but having so much money invested in two ...

If I'm an NFL owner, I would insight my GM have a local radio show. If you cannot field calls or questions from fans, how the hell are you going to deal with the stress of working a high level NFL personnel job? ...

... Cleveland Browns GM Phil Savage email to fan
Nice.
I have to admit, imagining what a crazed fan must have emailed to
Cleveland GM Phil Savage got me going. A number of questions come to
mind:
1. What was exchanged between this so-called fan and Savage?
2. Why would Savage even respond to this fan?
3. Didn't the Browns beat Buffalo last week?
4. How do I get Carl Peterson's email?
This story was even more intriguing yesterday when Deadspin announced Savage's explanation and apology regarding his email:
