Mangini is actually smart. He learned from Belichick that the path to greatness is to get fired from the Browns first. He's WAY ahead of Belichick's pace.

Come to think of it, maybe Mangini really IS ManGenius... after all, genius is 1% inspriation and 99% persperation... and the fat fink sure does seem to sweat a lot.

So this is how Mangina is going to pay his fine for lying about Favres shoulder.

Did he have one of his vaunted "open competitions" between two mathematicians to decide how much the fine would be on this one?

Why the hell did they hire Mangina in the first place?

It would be funny if it were a rookie fined during his forced slave labor for Mangina's football camp.

This guy is an absolute TURD.

What is the logic of hiring a proven mediocrity? Don't take a chance on someone who could be good, just hire someone known to be able to be mediocre? Browns fans should revolt.

Just silly on a multitude of levels.

It hit me that Mangini is like Capt Queeg from the Caine Mutiny. All we need is Eric to pull out silver balls in his hands in a post game conference and talk about the "strawberries, strawberries"

There has to be more to the story than this. When I check out of a hotel, I expect them to add the extras on my bill (room service, minibar,) Did he tell them,'don't drink the water"???? How cheap can you get..with a pro athlete?
Maybe this explains why they have staph problems. Did they replace disinfectant with plain soap??? I'm only half-joking .....
The CBA provides for room and board (article 38)during training and if they are on team business, I hope the Browns followed the letter of the law re per diems (article 39- see below) because if I'm the union rep, I'm scrutinizing everything now..

Section 2. Room and Board: All players will receive room and board during the pre-season training camp, and
housing between training camp and the Tuesday prior to their Club’s first regular season game for those players

or the equivalent shall not be considered as furnished by the Club.

Gwedd

I expect that the NFLPA might actually weigh in on this subject.

That's a rediculous penalty for such a small thing, especially since the hotel normally would add the cost of the water onto the credit card billing after it was discovered. Every Hotel i have ever stayed at as put a $20 "padding" onto the hold on your card in order to cover such events. If the bill is square, then it's rebated or refunded or not even charged.

I would have to think that there are other issues between the player and coach here. If not, there certainly is now.

What a douche Mangina has become...
