Maybe you could explain to the parents who have had their child attempt to commit or commit suicide that it wasn't as serious or their child is "less dead" because it was a case of cyber bullying and not being a transgender teen. I'm sure that would go over well and make perfect sense to them.
That's How Every Empire Falls Song by John Prine ‧ 2005
He caught a train from Alexandria Just a broken man in flight Running scared with all his devils Saying prayers all through the night But mercy can't find him Not in the shadows where he calls Forsaking all his better angels That's how every empire falls
The bells ring out on Sunday mornng Like echoes from another time All our innocence and yearning And sense of wonder left behind Oh, gentle hearts remember What was that story? Is it lost? For when religion loses vision That's how every empire falls
He toasts his wife and all his family The providence he brought to bear They raise their glasses in his honor Although, this union they don't share A man who lives among them Was still a stranger to them all For when the heart is never open That's how every empire falls
Padlock the door and board the windows Put the people in the street "It's just my job, " he says "I'm sorry." And draws a check, goes home to eat But at night he tells his woman "I know I hide behind the laws." She says, "You're only taking orders." That's how every empire falls
A bitter wind blows through the country A hard rain falls on the sea If terror comes without a warning There must be something we don't see What fire begets this fire? Like torches thrown into the straw If no one asks, then no one answers That's how every empire falls
Lot's of stories about harassment and suicides as a result of social media. It is an issue, and most parents know it's an issue.
Some things that can permanently alter the life of or children they want regulated or ended. Other things that can have the exact same consequences not so much. Hands on.... hands off.
I just think Schwartz is being dramatic, there is a good reason that the Browns did not hire Schwartz as head coach and that is because he is not a good head coach
We have no idea what the conversations between ownership and Schwarz were leading up to the hiring of the new HC. Claiming "He's not a good HC" is the same thing Tennessee fans said about Vrabel who will be coaching in the SB Sunday. It's the same thing their GM and owner thought too. I know I'm not qualified to say those things about Schwartz and I highly doubt you are either.
True for the most part, but as a fan, it keeps on getting more and more difficult to stay true to the team. I doubt that I'm going anywhere, but man, it sure can be difficult at times...

I don't know, I pretty much expected this. I actually don't understand what the "mistake" was. I mean, if Schwartz is not your man for the HC position, he was obviously leaving.
The only mistake I've seen was telling prospects keeping Schwartz was "non-negotiable"; if that was, in fact, the case.
I can only speculate. He probably felt he was jerked around.
Nobody is irreplaceable.
There are guys who can do the job. Banda and Tarver are internal guys who could step in and do the job.
I am now hoping the Browns promote Jason Tarver Linebackers coach. He knows Schwartz's system really well and his linebackers have been responsible for calling the defensive when the offense audibles. He has been with Browns wince 2020 and has developed players like JOK, Devin Bush, Carson Schweisinger etc... Hoping he is next in line to keep the gang together as much as possible.
And with Emerson coming back and an addition here or there our D can be even better. If we make the right moves on O we can be legit contender's next season.
Emerson is an unrestricted free agent.
Congrats to Schwesinger. Nice speech last night as his mom get emotional in the audience.
