Cleveland Browns:
With the announcement made that the Browns will honor all-time great Jim Brown with a statue this fall outside of FirstEnergy Stadium, one can’t help but wonder if that should be the first statue erected on the banks of Lake Erie. Or, did the team miss the boat on its first statue dedication in not building one to honor its namesake and founding father, the late Paul Brown.
The Cleveland Browns leveraged the occasion of Jim Brown’s 80th birthday to announce that the team will place a statue of the Hall of Famer outside of FirstEnergy Stadium.
