After another wretched season which ended with the firing of the G.M. and coaching staff, and Johnny Frickin' Football AWOL in a blonde wig at a Vegas casino, the Cleveland Browns have solved all their problems by hiring Paul DePodesta in the newly-created front office position of Chief Strategy Officer. Kick-ass strategies are sure to follow.
DePodesta is a pro baseball executive best known for sabermetric statistcal analysis. He has worked for the Mets, Dodgers and Indians, and first gained notice with Oakland Athletic's front office. He was featured prominently in Moneyball, Michael Lewis's best-selling book about the success of the A's non-traditional approach to player evaluation. That approach is now fairly commonplace throughout baseball.Browns owner Jimmy Haslam said he settled on Depodesta only after interviewing top executives in manufacturing, banking, health care and other fields having nothing whatsoever to do with football. Haslam declared himself to be "thrilled" with the DePodesta hire, and predicted the Browns will lead the NFL in on-base percentage.
