We are deeply saddened by the passing of Jim Donovan. For 25 years, he brought joy to Cleveland as the Voice of the Browns. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time.
Kris Kristofferson was a Rhodes Scholar, an Army Captain and a helicopter pilot. A critic of U.S. foreign policy, he opposed wars in Latin America and the Middle East and spoke out against apartheid. He defended family farmers, wrote some damn fine songs and sang mightily!
RIP
