Browns Fire GM George Kokinis

Browns general manager George Kokinis was escorted out of the Browns facility in Berea by security, two league sources told the Plain Dealer, and is believed to have been fired. The Browns did not immediately return calls or emails, including an email to owner Randy Lerner. Kokinis was handpicked by Browns coach Eric Mangini to be his general manger but was barely heard from after his hiring in January, both began their careers in Cleveland as underlings to Bill Belichick in the early 1990s.

That's ridiculous. The only thing good about this offseason/season was getting rid of headaches and stocking draft picks. Daboll should have been the fall guy. I guess you can't put Lerner's new "leader" of the organization at O.C. Shitty way to treat Kokinis.
Please, no more fucking patriots or ravens.

I used to post the cartoons, but got no replies...so I quit doing it (kind of like spending 30 minutes of my time posting baseball bets that nobody ever noticed)...

I loved the cartoon about Rex Ryan

Now lets hope they don't make the problem even worse and hand over the GM duties to Mangini.
