CLEVELAND, Ohio -- When I heard David Modell died, I had this strange feeling.
It was sadness.
I had met David Modell a few times when his father was still the owner of the Cleveland Browns.
I didn't really know him.
But the death of David Modell at the age of 56 from lung cancer opened some old wounds.
I remember Art Modell telling me, "I'm moving the team to keep it in the family."
Art Modell was talking about David. He was supposed to take his place as the primary owner when the Browns became the Baltimore Ravens.
