Browns reportedly fire GM Kokinis

Published: Mon, November 2, 2009 @ 9:25 p.m.

Browns General Manager George Kokinis was escorted out of the Browns facility in Berea by security Monday, two league sources told The Cleveland Plain Dealer, and is believed to have been fired.

The Browns did not immediately return calls or emails, including an email to owner Randy Lerner.

Kokinis was handpicked by Browns coach Eric Mangini to be his GM, but was barely heard from after his hiring in January. Both began their careers in Cleveland as underlings to Bill Belichick in the early 1990s.

No way! Movement forward. Good, he seemed like a 'yes' man for Mangini. I know, I know, what Im about to say could be met with anger, but I hope they keep Mangini.

The Browns ownership finally gets it and is moving in the right direction.No one even saw Kokonis,he was a Mangini puppet.No maybe the Browns will get a true GM to run the team,and can pick talent,since we have 11 draft picks this year.It's a start in the right direction.

Does anyone really think with all his dead brain cells from his alcoholic addiction days that Bernie Kosar will do any better? The problem is the Browns' owner. Lerner doesn't have a clue how to run a winning football team in the NFL and how to hire the right people to get that SB championship. New GM - same finish, LAST!

Guaranteed, it's the arrogant ownership. Time, and time again, has proven, "Lerner doesn't have a clue how to run a winning football team in the NFL and how to hire the right people to get that SB championship."
