• Marquise Hill revisited

  Months ago, this space challenged Browns' GM Phil Savage to leave no stone unturned in a recommended search for reinforcements at specific positions of perceived need, foremost among them being the desperately needy DL. Savage was encouraged to scour... Posted May 29 2007, 04:08 PM by MALeonard's Xanga

• Positions of concern for Browns

  First off, don't imagine that it is expected for any of these trade scenarios to materialize. It is assumed readers don't necessarily come to this site expecting accurate predictions so much as they may covet some diversion into the areas of professional...

• Ray Allen the missing link?

  Yesterday's entry discussed the imbalance present on the Cavs' current roster. There seems to be a conspicuous absence of a reliable perimeter threat among the team's top seven to complement Lebron James' capacities to drive, create and... Posted May 19 2007, 09:41 AM by MALeonard's Xanga

• As good as it gets?

  The selection of Dallas Maverick Dirk Nowitzki as the sport's 2006-7 MVP over two-time defending designee Steve Nash is an atrocity. Though it is understood the award is given upon regular-season play, Nowitzki amptly demonstrated in the playoff series... Posted May 11 2007, 04:54 PM by MALeonard's Xanga

• Front Seven addendum

  Having recently opined that the Cleveland Browns' front seven essentially holds in its collective hands the composite destiny of the club in general, it seems only responsible to provide some prospective solutions to the described problem. To no one's... Posted May 11 2007, 04:45 PM by MALeonard's Xanga

• The Front Seven

  It was good to see the professional football team in NE Ohio receive national acclaim for involving itself in the drama of Brady Quinn's draft-day fall. That it netted for the squad a potential franchise quarterback to go with its earlier decision... Posted May 05 2007, 08:05 PM by MALeonard's Xanga
