And in a move that was long overdue, Hickerson was elected to the Hall of Fame yesterday. Papa Cass touches on this Browns legend in this Super Bowl Sunday piece.

Erik CassanoPhenomenal column from Papa Cass here today. In it, he takes a closer look at Cleveland's triumverate of head coaches: Romeo Crennel, Mike Brown, and Eric Wedge. The three men have one thing in common - this is the first head coaching gig for each of them. All three men are learning on the job, and are struggling with pushing the psychological buttons necessary to take things to the next level ... a practice that can only perfected with the experience they lack.
