A little Draft Week support for the Browns

Never fear, Cleveland Browns, this guy is on your side:



For those of you that did not follow the news yesterday, this guy is was James Filiaggi of Lorain, who was put to death yesterday in Lucasville after being convicted of killing his wife in 1994.

One of the reporters present for the execution was WEWS Channel 5's Curtis Jackson, who reported on the story live from Lucasville all day long. During Live On 5, Channel 5's 5pm newscast, Jackson read an excerpt of Filiaggi's final statement which, in addition to a condemnation of the death penalty, included this chilling show of "support" for his favorite team:

"When the Browns are in the Super Bowl in the next five years, you'll know I'm up there doing my magic."


We Browns fans already get a bad enough name from years and years of incidents like the 2001 Jaguars game and the Dawg Pound throwing dog bones at opposing players... do we really need CONVICTED MURDERERS using their last words to lend support to the ol' Orange and Brown?

Wow. Thanks but no thanks, James.

Please someone bury that video and this guys comments. I hope none of that gets any air time nationally, like for instance on ESPiN or the Rome show
