Steelers' co-owner wants a piece of the Cleveland Browns

Cleveland Browns owner Randy Lerner says he's discussing a possible investment in the team by businessman Jimmy Haslam, founder of the Pilot corporation, a chain of convenience stores and travel centers. Haslam is also a minority owner of the Browns' archrival, the Pittsburgh Steelers. Lerner says he was approached by Haslam, and have agreed to keep details of the negotiations private. Meanwhile crews have completed the rennovation of Cleveland Browns Stadium.  Crews have completed weeks worth of concrete restoration, seat replacement, and installation of new food stands. Taxpayers funded the nearly six-million dollar rennovation that was requested by the team and approved by the city.  

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
