Looks like the Browns’ official site is up to its old tricks, this time for good reason. My RSS reader shows a headline entitled “Dinkens maintains innocence” and the lede “After watching the film, Darnell Dinkins said the critical holding penalty he was assessed late in the Sunday’s loss to Pittsburgh was not, in fact, a hold.”
This sentiment was essentially endorsed by Romeo and written up by one of the team’s employees. But the article does not currently appear on clevelandbrowns.com. “Not posted yet” is what the linked page says, though “unposted” is closer to the truth.
Methinks they fear for Dinkens’ wallet, knowing how touchy the league office can be about criticizing the officials.
