“The Unhappy Hour” host Brian Engelman once again welcomes co-host Brandon O’Dell to talk “Strictly Browns”.

After interviewing several candidates, new owner Jimmy Haslam has hired former Browns Offensive Coordinator & most recently Carolina Panthers Offensive Coordinator Rob Chudzinski to be the first head coach of the Haslam era.

Rumors also have recently fired San Diego Chargers head coach Norv Turner joining the Browns in the role of offensive coordinator.

In “Overtime” Brian & Brandon discuss:

– NFL playoffs (both predicting wins by the Broncos, Packers, Seahawks & Patriots).
– The baseball Hall Of Fame vote resulting in no inductions, passing over “steroid era” greats such as Roger Clemens, Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa & more.
– The likelihood that Art Modell could be elected to the NFL hall of fame now that he has deceased.
– Alabama’s college football dominance, and the chances that Urban Meyer & Ohio State can challenge for a National Championship next year.
– Junior Seau’s post suicide brain examination revealed that he did suffer from CTE, just like former Browns great Bernie Kosar & what this means for the league.
& much more.

Mental Health, CTE, Concussions, Depression, & The Junior Seau Suicide Discussion With Terry Russell of NAMI Ohio & Brian Engelman On “The Unhappy Hour”.

On our Friday 05_04_12 episode of “The Unhappy Hour” sports show, we spoke with Terry Russell, Executive Director of NAMI Ohio, (National Alliance on Mental Illness).

We discussed his 40 years of mental health work & focused our attention on star NFL linebacker, Junior Seau’s suicide earlier this week.

We also talked about how Cleveland felt & acted when LeBron James left town, & how generations of Cleveland sports fans have carried around disappointment due to decades of near-championships & failure after failure.

Terry said, “There is unfortunately still a stigma associated with major depression & mental illness for some people, but these are physical problems like heart disease or cancer, not character flaws. 1 in 5 families are effected by mental illness.”
