We know now what that “something” was up at Browns HQ today: Kokinis was fired by owner Randy Lerner and escorted from the Browns’ grounds (heh) at approximately noon ET, according to a local news outlet.
Lerner is apparently partial to new coach Eric Mangini, which explains why Kokinis is taking the fall instead of the Mangenius. Regardless, the only thing more hopeless than firing a coach midseason is firing a GM; it’ll take at least a year to undo this damage.

Browns
I knew the fans were not happy with the results of the Browns these past couple seasons. They do need some overall reevaluation and planning to appease everyone. www.thetrademarkcompany.com

Poor Dawg Pound.
Whatever needs to be done should be done. It’s ridiculous that they can’t put together a competitive team there. Bring in Bernie, boot D.A. to make roster room to claim Chris Chambers, and then tell Mangini “it’s been real.”
Ryan can serve as interim and pick anybody he wants to run the O.
Also, get some damn cheerleaders!
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles...
