Harry Buffalo Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Could of should of would of. Who the hell really knows what all draft picks Lombardi was responsible for. He was the head talent evaluator on those teams and past the first round pick where he was the top evaluator they made shitty picks. He never had final say but he had his hands all up in that shit. He can't just run around and say that he said no to this guy and yes to someone else. Remember, Belichick claims that Lombardi is one of the best talent evaluators he has ever seen... but in his 5 years out of the NFL he never offered Lombardi a job. Also classy move. If the last GM was so great why did they draft Weeden instead of Wilson. Why in the fuck didn't the other 32 teams not draft the guy before the 3rd round. Why did the last GM let his boss over step him and make that Weeden pick. I mean how dare you not tell your boss to fuck off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soju Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Nantz is a moron and is butt buddies with Lombardo. He stated he was objective, but throughout the dialogue you come to see he is very close to Lomabardo and couldn't be any more SUBjective. Don't take anything this guy says seriously.

BadNewsBrowns Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Nantz went on an epic rant and roasted Grossi... was definitely entertaining... logical and objective, not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He never mentions Grossi by name, but it is quite obvious that Grossi is the person he is talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choco Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Its an obvious PR campaign by the browns against a "grizzled beat writer". Spin machine working overtime for lombardi. Lost lot of respect for jimmeh with his obvious lies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bringbackbrownie2 Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Nantz is an idiot..and his commentaries are boring. Nantz is the king of random, irrelevant facts that add no value to the current football game being played. I still wonder how this no-talent quack got a job commentating on so many different sporting events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Buffalo Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 I think Lombardi is a good hire , but Im disappointed in Chudinski. So you like the hire of our new talent evaluator who is historically bad at evaluation talent, but you hate the hire of the offensive minded coach who is known for running a good offense?

The Gipper Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Nantz is the king of random, irrelevant facts that add no value to the current football game being played. I still wonder how this no-talent quack got a job commentating on so many different sporting events. Nantz is an outstanding play by play announcer on many sporting events. That said, his personal opinions should never really be brought up. Yea, maybe a lot of people have been hard on Lombardi. I can tell you....if Grossi, Terry Pluto, Much Bishop, etc. etc. etc. Well respected veteran sports writers in this town say that their is an issue with Lombardi's personal character, I for one, have to believe them. That said, he personal backstabbing of people in the Browns organization in years past means nothing really to his capability of doing his job NOW. So, we have him, we are stuck with him.....and thus I say this about him: May the road rise to meet him, May the wind be always at his back May the sun shine upon his face May the rain fall soft upon his fields May his every pick become a Pro Bowler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
