Here are some of the highlights:

"Generally, Brown wanted a lineup of Ferraris whereas Lewis preferred players who looked like they could have been manufactured by Caterpillar"

"[Brown and Lewis] did not have significant differences of opinions often, according to both men. Lewis recalls two. He objected when Brown insisted on cutting RB Kenny Watson in 2009. And Brown refused to go along whne Lewis wanted to make a change in his coaching staff."

"That team is his life," [Lewis] says [of Brown]. "He doesn't care about money. He wants all the money to be spent on the team and the players. It's not going to be wasted on things outside of that. Everything is directed to making the team better."

Which just goes to further cement how utterly, totally, completely shit he is at it.
