The Athletic is doing a deep dive into Jimmy and the Haslam family. They'll be publishing four articles in the next three days: Jimmy and the family's tenure as owners of the Browns (today), their involvement with Tennessee athletics (tomorrow), what took place during the 2014 draft (tomorrow), and a legal analysis of the Pilot Flying J case (Friday).

Really good article. These passages in particular stuck out to me.

A team spokesman said it’s common practice for owners to solicit feedback from others around the NFL and those affiliated with the game. Sources counter that Haslam takes it to the extreme and that the chorus of voices clouds his judgment. His name dropping around the Browns facility also erodes confidence in the people running the team.

“Jimmy speaks to a zillion people about anything and everything with no ability to figure out who knows what they are talking about and who doesn’t,” a former league executive said. “Even when he’s talking to someone really smart, he doesn’t have the ability to figure out, ‘what is the width of their expertise?’ He fails at that miserably and it’s a terrible message to the people who are actually working for him. It gives the impression he has no faith in management and coaches. Once you have them looking over their shoulders, you don’t have effective managers or coaches anymore.”

“I get the sense that Haslam is so pliable that it’s really who has his ear last,” a former league executive said. “You don’t want to talk to him at 7:30 in the morning. You want to talk to him at 7:30 at night.”

Sources believe Haslam’s penchant for soliciting outside opinion has fueled his streak of impatience. No NFL team has fired more top decision-makers in the past six seasons.

Damn. Sounds like another shyster chief executive who's in the news daily.
