"The Browns on Tuesday announced that CEO Joe Banner and general manager Michael Lombardi are leaving the organization.

Ray Farmer, who toiled under Lombardi, has been promoted to general manager effective immediately. Banner, set to exit over the next two months, released a statement on Tuesday calling the transition "bittersweet."

The Browns will always be the Browns.

It's gotta be tough sledding to be a Browns fan ... they deserve better than this. At least there are lots of liquor stores near the stadium.

No tenture ever with that team.

Personnel-wise it's a great move for the Browns... Cleveland fans are thrilled to get rid of Lombardi. But now there's a new GM who played no part in hiring the new coach and the owner could still be going to prison so it's still a circus.

There are no great moves for the Browns. They have proven to be incapable of understanding talent and unable to make a great move. They are Dallas 2.0

Lombardi sure didn't stay unemployed very long. It appears he is headed back to the Patriots.

I wonder if Cleveland is in danger of losing their football team again.
