*You probably know someone like this. They know they’re gonna get kicked to the curb by their boss for crappy performance, but when it happens, they act surprised and can’t handle it … go left on said boss.
One such person, if you are to believe a new explosive ESPN report, is now former Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson.
The story goes that Jackson was so pissed at Browns owner Jimmy Haslam after a Week 8 loss to the Steelers, he cussed at him (Haslam) and threw him out of his office.
And if you didn’t already know, the report confirms that it was an ongoing “shit-show” behind the scenes in Cleveland this year.

Here’s more from the ESPN piece:
Haslam reportedly went to Jackson’s office to deliver the news after the team had chalked up another loss — sending their record to 2-5-1 on the season.
When Haslam told Jackson that the team had “quit” on him and the Browns were firing the head coach, Jackson reportedly said, “Get the f*ck out of my office.”
So, why such anger in a moment EVERYONE saw coming?
According to the report, Jackson’s position is that Haslam had given him a vote of confidence behind the scenes — telling him the team would be firing offensive coordinator Todd Haley, not Jackson.
When Haslam decided to move on from Hue on October 29 … Jackson didn’t see it coming (despite an overall 3-36-1 record with the organization) and lost his cool.
Speaking of the Browns’ owner, the article also paints Haslam as a guy who’s in over his head. You see, he was crazy adamant on selecting Johnny Manziel in the 2014 NFL Draft over Teddy Bridgewater because “something about Bridgewater’s handshake rubbed Haslam the wrong way.”
As we all know, Manziel simply couldn’t perform and is already out of the league. On the other hand, Bridgewater has become a pretty solid QB (despite injuries).
One more thing about Haslam. He also reportedly nicknamed his ex-VP of football operations, Sashi Brown, who is black, “Obama” because of his Harvard degree … which made people in the Browns organization uncomfortable and came off as racial stereotyping.
