Cleveland Browns: Art Modell is out, Mac Speedie is in

Art Modell will not be enshrined down the road in Canton, Ohio. And we as Cleveland Browns fans can now finally not worry about this anymore.

Modell's last stand was an opportunity given to him by a special committee that enshrined 15 new members as " Heroes of the game" to help celebrate the NFL 100th season. But common sense won out and Modell will not be a member.

All the good that Modell did for the game was wiped away in one stupid act of moving the Cleveland Browns to Baltimore in 1995. Joining the Gateway project or simply selling the team would have ensured his place in Canton.
