I completed my training this morning 😂

Preparing for another Browns season to kick off. #DawgPound

@BraggingRtsSpts @BenAxelrod @BurdsIVue That wasn’t fun either. Modell firing Belichick and elevating Ozzie to lead front office helped create a dynasty (NE) and allowed Ozzie to thrive in Baltimore. 30 years later, here we are as Cle fans. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[Arny Martin @ARNY_MARTIN]

@WordofJ @Drownomatic5000 @BenAxelrod Sheesh, Modell and Belichick had a falling out, he was going to get fired even if still in Cle. Just like Ozzie would have been promoted to lead the front office regardless of city location.
2 Facts: Bal got 2 rings, congrats. Ozzie was the reason

[Arny Martin @ARNY_MARTIN]

@WordofJ @Drownomatic5000 @BenAxelrod So you’re saying Ozzie would have picked different players and had different front office staff just because he had better seafood in Baltimore?
The guy turned out to be a pro personnel/GM guru and front office leader for 23 yrs. Biscotti inherited Ozzie, he didn’t pick him.

[Arny Martin @ARNY_MARTIN]

@WordofJ @Drownomatic5000 @BenAxelrod 1) Ozzie Newsome (Cle legend), the architect of the Ravens rosters, was already in the Cle front office and was promoted after they moved

2) Modell was in financial dire and would have found another investor just like Biscotti

All this would have happened in Cle if no move

[The Ball Out @theballoutmedia]

"Alright, with a bit of hindsight, I think we've been reading a ton of bullshit since yesterday.

Rich Paul had announced that if the Knicks hadn't won the title, he would've gone there without a second thought, but now we're talking about him settling in New York during his stint in Philly.

We can stomp our feet, insult Koby, Mobley Mitchell, Dan Gilbert, or the pope—nothing's gonna change a simple truth: he NEVER intended to come back.

Rich Paul said it yesterday—he hesitated between GSW and Philly (while living in NY), and it comes down to him already wanting to live in a big city. That's just how it is.

Next, let's be crystal clear: there's also the Klutch Sports angle.

Why did LeBron's inner circle (supposedly) complain about Garland's departure when it was Rich Paul who orchestrated it? Because he's a Klutch Sports client.

Why did all those AD rumors pop up? Because he's a Klutch Sports client.

Why was there a star next to Maxey's name on the whiteboard? Because he's a Klutch Sports client.

Why does Rich Paul emphasize the importance of Nick Nurse in this decision? Because he's a Klutch Sports client.

Why does the first rumor after the Philly decision involve Caldwell-Pope? Because he's a Klutch Sports client.

We don't have a single Klutch Sports client left in Cleveland as of today, and that's no accident.

We can criticize a ton about the roster build all the way to some players' performance levels (even if, heads up, I'm reading some whoppers) fine.

But if you think LeBron and Rich Paul ever seriously considered coming back to Cleveland after ditching us time and again, then you're the willing puppets in a goddamn puppet show.

And if you think #LeBron gives a real shit about the sentiment, our fan base, and this organization—and that it's just a coincidence he chose to announce this decision the NIGHT BEFORE the franchise's birthday event, marking 10 years since 2016...

You're victims of Stockholm syndrome, and it's high time to break free.

That said, happy 10th anniversary of the title—2016 is eternal, and nothing and no one can take that from us!" - @CavsNationFra #Cavs #UHaulJames #LeBronJames

@theballoutmedia 💯

Most Cle fans would’ve been fine with him choosing another team if he didn’t string this along, allowing the tease of closing his career in Cle to fester.

He didn’t owe Cle anything other than treating the fan base with respect. Should have just ruled Cle out early.

[Arny Martin @ARNY_MARTIN]

@ChrisFedor I’m fine he went to another team, but it’s how he went about— dragged this out, teased Cle again, etc.

Philly traded for Jaylen Brown weeks ago. He knew the roster of Philly and Cle weeks ago. Philly is only better if Embid stays healthy, a BIG IF.

[Arny Martin @ARNY_MARTIN]

@HammerNation19 No will ever know what moves (if any) would have made a difference in his mind.

He chose Philly to form another super team and ring chase.

There was no move the Cavs could make to create a starting 5 better than Philly, assuming Embid healthy.

[Arny Martin @ARNY_MARTIN]

@ScoopB LeBron preferred Garland over Harden? His buddy Brandon Weems is in the Cavs front office. Does anyone really think the Cavs wouldn’t know of LeBron’s preference,if there was one?

Also,his family flies in a private jet and can get anywhere they want, whenever they want. #Cavs

[Arny Martin @ARNY_MARTIN]

@Delta it’s time to reinvest in the flying experience you offer. 3 flights in a row, with 2 of them internationally, and it’s been horrible. Seats are uncomfortable, WiFi slow or goes in and out, my seat wouldn’t recline, and one of the flights the AC not working good. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[McNeil @REFLOG18]

Ten years ago today on June 19th, 2016 the Cleveland Cavaliers came back from down 3-1 to defeat the 73 win Golden State Warriors and win the NBA Championship 🏆

[Arny Martin @ARNY_MARTIN]

So true, every Cleveland fan can relate to this 🤦🏻‍♂️ #cavs

[Joel @JG4President]

I promise you I wouldn’t wish being a Cleveland Sports fan on the devil himself.

This shit is pure torture at every turn.

[Arny Martin @ARNY_MARTIN]

@ZackMeisel @JeffPassan We need an article on with insights on the following,
-What’s next for Ingle? Start playing OF or 1B? DH only?
-Playing time of Bailey vs. Hedges at C

You don’t trade a 1st rd. pick and a good prospect for a catcher, if you don’t have a plan for Ingle who is tearing it up in AAA

[Arny Martin @ARNY_MARTIN]

@BaldyNFL Can he switch to LT and be a stud for the Browns at #6 or is his best position RT? Browns already got their RT in a trade.

That plan did not work too well when they drafted Jedrick Wills (converted to LT) a few years ago.

Gold for Johnny 🇺🇸❤️

[Arny Martin @ARNY_MARTIN]

@AkronJackson Not sure how I missed it. Good article, coupled with being a sad read for Browns fans.

If Stefanski goes, Berry has to as well. He dealt the cards Stefanski was given. 🤦🏻‍♂️
