He quotes this in the press (from Reiss's Pieces):
Browns owner Randy Lerner, in a piece in today's Cleveland Plain Dealer, talked about why Patriots Vice President of Player Personnel Scott Pioli is an appealing candidate to him.
"He's got a lot of qualities. He's very well-trained. I think he's got a very attractive demeanor, football demeanor. It's the right time of life for him. I think he's a fundamentally good guy."
Last week after talking with Cowher, he reported to the press that Cowher is not interested in any NFL coaching job, not just the Browns. Lerner has no business talking for Cowher, nor saying that it is the right time of life for Pioili, whatever the heck that means.
He is exactly the type of interfering, drive-you-nuts owner that would drive Pioli nuts. Certainly, Pioli had to be aware of how Art Modell messed with BB in the 90's.
If Pioli was desperate for a job, maybve it wouldn't matter. But Pioli can take his pick of what he wants, and the right owner is key to a teams success. The worst owner is a meddling owner, and a dumb meddling owner who blabs everything to the press had to be the absolute pits.
