NFL owners unanimously approve sale of Browns to Jimmy Haslam (and his $1 billion purchase price).
Owners also approve allowing agents/teams to talk about players 3 days before free agency. In other words, tampering legalized.
Cartoon bubble over every NFL owner's head this morning at meetings: "If Lerner can get a billion, wonder how much I could get?"
Good time to sell an NFL team: player costs low, labor peace for next 9 years, record broadcast contracts about to kick in.
And related to the Browns sale......
Browns president Mike Holmgren will retire at the end of this season and former Eagles president Joe Banner is being named the Browns new CEO effective immediately, according to league sources. New Browns owner Jimmy Haslam is expected to make the announcement today
