On Thursday, ESPN released an in-depth profile on the Cleveland Browns and how dysfunctional the organization has been for such a long time, especially during the Hue Jackson era.
Among the things the piece dove into was Hue Jackson telling the Browns owner and GM to “get the fuck out of my office” upon firing him from his position.
One of the craziest stories in there had to have been when the team accidentally broadcasted porn on a wall in the Browns offices.
Marketing executives wanted employees to see how fans were engaging with the Browns on social media, so they projected the Browns feed onto a giant wall at the facility. It was like broadcasting talk radio over the entire building, and one day in particular, it was worse than that. One of the marketing staffers entered a search for #dp — for Dawg Pound. The problem was, that hashtag carried a few different meanings, one of which triggered an array of porn to be broadcast onto a wall for the entire office to see for more than 20 minutes, until a tech employee killed the feed.
If you’re not aware of porn lingo, the “D” in DP stands for “Double,” while the “P” stands for “penetration.” The Browns broadcasted double penetration porn to their employees.
The Browns did bounce back from their 0–16 mark in 2017 to go 7-8–1 this past season. The franchise still has not qualified for the postseason in 16 years.
