Art Modell passes away

122 posts in this topic

In a Very smart move, Modell's family has requested that Cleveland not mention or say anything about Art's passing.

[quote][color=#000000][font=Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif][size=4]Team spokesman Neal Gulkis has advised PFT that the Browns will make no mention of Modell, at the request of his family.[/size][/font][/color]

In the end, the Modell family helped the team that replaced Modell’s Browns out of a very delicate situation.[/size][/font][/color][/quote]

For those of you complaining about Cleveland... stop. I'm sure back then that if the Internet was what it is now, we'd have a few unkind words about Robert Irsay.

I still have many unkind words for Robert Irsay now.
