UPDATE:

Looks like Scott E. Entsminger will be let down by the Cleveland Browns one last time afterall.

Just not in the way he’d like.

Team spokesman Zak Gilbert told NewsChannel5 that it will not be possible to fulfill Entsminger’s dying wish, considering the team is not currently in Berea and does not start training camp until the end of July.

The team has reached out to Entsminger’s widow, however, and will present the family with a Hall of Famer Lou Groza jersey for the memorial service.

In the middle of an otherwise normal obituary printed in the Columbus Dispatch for Scott E. Entsminger is this amazing little nugget of black humor. It seems the only relief from being a Browns fan is the grave, and even then, the expectations are the same.

A lifelong Cleveland Browns fan and season ticket holder, he also wrote a song each year and sent it to the Cleveland Browns as well as offering other advice on how to run the team. He respectfully requests six Cleveland Browns pall bearers so the Browns can let him down one last time.

Bravo, sir. RIP.

  1. Haslam is digging his own business grave, so he should make an appearance. Never has Randy Lerner’s 30 percent minority share in the Browns looked so good — if Haslam falls, an embarrassing sidebar to the main event can be averted….with Lerner taking the helm as another search for an owner can take place — with better research by NFL security.

  2. “that gold Jerry, GOLD!!!”

    SOFA KING FUNNY!!!!! He lived the life and died the death a Browns fan….SO SAD….

    Oh hey…Made something up funny… say 2 watt really fast…
    And don’t forget to credit your source!!!

  3. Kudos to scott for being that loyal to the Browns over all these years, and if the Browns are seeing any of this, isn’t it sad that this is how your fan base thinks about the team?

    Also credit to scott for putting the Browns in a no-win, “guaranteed to let him down” situation – if they don’t show, they let him down by not showing, and if they do show, they let him down, literally, by lowering him down into the ground. Sounds like a guy with a great sense of humor, I’m sure some Browns players from the past are waiting for him on the other side.
