"To increase in scope or severity, as a disease taking an unfavorable course", Yea, that't the one that fits the Browns situation the best right now. I wonder if that is what Mangini meant by Progress.

 

I'll stand behind DA as a Browns fan, but I can't say I'm very excited about it. I hope that gut wrenching feeling I have is wrong.

for the past 3 seasons there has been one gigantic larger than life impediment to progress.

 

It is high school girls (along with adult males) screaming for Quinn like they were at a Rick Springfield concert.

 

Now that impediment to progress has been removed.

 

It is time to continue along the path toward success.
