Yes and no Bonnie.
Not sure how much PB had to do with getting JB involved back then, and I'm certainly not going to deny that he is 'capable' of a class act, but, being an old timer, and remembering Brown starting the Bengals from the Cleveland Browns, one thing many players said about him, was he was all football business.
Rarely spoke to the players off the field, nor showed much concern for them off the field.
Obviously I didn't know him personally, and was never around the organization to confirm or deny, but that's what the consensus was as I remember it and what the players DID say about him, after the fact.
