Randy Lerner

That was in response to Stuart saying they were always last, which they weren't.

Just taking their record over the past ten years (not including this year which i believe hasn't finished) and you can see why people are not happy

I'm not looking at stuff past the first three figures.

Given that relegation isn't an issue you can see why there is unhappiness with him. And whilst they may not be strictly every year I think poetic license should be given because the point is still pretty well made.

I can see a pattern here. Randy is a serial killer.

[PeterWithesShin]

He sold them in 2012. They are currently 3-10 this season.

Lerner's father brought them back from the dead in 99.. this is their full body of work. It's hard to be as bad and dysfunctional as the Browns, and I'm from Philadelphia. The parallels between his two tenures are stunning. Now, if only we were worth a billion dollars.

Has he opened an overpriced cafe in Shoreditch as well?

Can't imagine him with one of those hipster beards

[brian green]

If Randy opened a cafe, I wonder what he would call it.  Cafe Tears probably.

[MarkM]

He would turn it into a burger bar after spending a shit load of money making it worse

[Jimbo]

Nobucks?

I think you've found his level in running a business.

Two winning seasons in 14 is a terrible record in any sport and points to poor manangement of a team at every level.

[in exile]

Speaking as a long time Steelers fan, I think Randy did a first class job at the Browns

[Chico Hamilton III]

Sad Café

Boom!   

[PeterWithe]

I think he's nearly always been well intentioned, just God awful execution of everything.
