Outside of the Browns lost I had a pretty memorable weekend. My sister lives in New Jersey and her brother in law grew up with Joe Haden. So after the game we got to go up to his game suite and him and his family invited us to go to the XO steakhouse with them afterwards. I felt uncomfortable considering I don't know Haden personally or anything but him and his family were really cool and paid for everything! It was great since we also ate in the same room as Cribbs, Ward, D Jackson and P Taylor. I was truly taken back on how classy Haden and his parents were. They even invited us to go to the club with them that night but I was far too tired (got up at 4 AM to tailgate). My sister went though and once again he took care of everything. Simply a great and friendly family. Anyways I thought I'd share since it's not an everyday thing for me. As well I wanted to pass on the story to show what a great overall guy we got playing cornerback. Now if the Browns would have won.......

Was he ready to go when you met him or was he waiting on approval from a coach?

He came to the suite about 30 minutes after the game. Just shook everyones hands and talked to his Mom, Dad and girlfriend for about 10 minutes and then we all left. Not sure whether he had to wait on his coaches approval. I was surprised how fast he made it up though considering he took post game questions, showered and was in a suit by the time he arrived.

That went absolutely right over your head, he was referring to the play where the defense was all in the huddle

He seems like a good guy, saying and doing all the right things. I'm glad he's in Cleveland!
I want the Cleveland Browns to be my pallbearers so they can let me down for the last time.

Doesn't hurt that he's one hell of a football player either.

Hi, I'm looking for Ray Finkel... and a clean pair of shorts.
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.
