Is Phil Savage losing it?

From www.examiner.com/cleveland, Cleveland Browns Examiner:


In the most recent chapter of "Savage Existence",the story of the 2008 Cleveland Browns, Phil Savage has apologized to the fan to whom he sent a profanity riddled e-mail.

"Go root for Buffalo. F*** you.", wrote the Browns General Manager.

He since has made a public apology and is ready to move on from the incident.

"There had been previous e-mails from him over the months and enough was enough. We have both apologized to each other since", Savage explained.

Now, I have been a Savage supporter from the beginning--but this is just crazy. Why on earth is our General Manager responding to e-mails from crazy fans? Just think about it, he is corresponding with "Joe Blow" the angry Browns fan! This is supposed to be a professional sports team.

I understand a fan writing him a coherent contention on why he thinks Phil Savage or the Browns are bad. There is no reason, however, for him to respond to harassing e-mails consisting of statements calling Savage, "the worst GM in the NFL". Does he not have an assistant to filter through emails and documents? Sort of like an actor that has an agent who sifts through scripts, e-mails, and fan-mail.

If he does not, then I will go ahead and ask Mr. Savage personally, could you employ me to do that? Just let me know and I will send my resume to you.

By the way, don't be surprised if he actually responds to this column!

And what is with our head coach Romeo Crennel giving his two cents on the matter? Why is he giving explanations about how Savage handles his business? He should figuring out why his defense can't tackle. If they cannot, then Steve Slaton could slaughter the Browns this Sunday.

No matter what, if you are a Browns fan, this should be alarming. Every week this organization is becoming a punch-line for the NFL. I'm starting to wonder is Savage is losing it. As a professional, you just can't act like that.

Now, bring on the Texans!
