Not that I have any personal affinity for the Browns, but I think this is another stellar marketing move by Coach Bowden.

Well I'm a Browns fan, but not a Holmgren fan so much. Not that I hate the guy, just don't have much faith in him right now. I'm sure he'll give one of his speeches about building for the future and patience and all that stuff that we've heard a million times. Probably even draw those comparisons between the Browns and Zips that so many in NE Ohio like to do. But the sad part is, the Zips actually are improving while the Browns are getting worse. I think I'm more excited to hear that Jim Donovan is also going to be there. He's very respected in Cleveland. -------------------- It's okay....we'll be better next year

As a Steeler fan, I'd like anyone affiliated with the Browns to stay away from the Zips. We're bad enough.

Yeah, lets hate on Holmgren, it's not like he has taken multiple teams to the Super Bowl or anything

Oh, come on. Some of you sound like a bunch of Pittsburg Pirates fans. Keep that negative mindset away from the zips.

I have formed no opinion of Holmgren's tenure with the Browns yet.
Regardless, he does have a respected history in the NFL, and speaking about football in Akron is not a bad thing at all. |
