Former Browns WR Reggie Rucker, speaking to a Cleveland
business group, on a new owner for the Browns: "We need an
expansion team owned by [MBNA Corp. Chair] Al Lerner. Al
Lerner gives us the best chance to return to glory" (AKRON
BEACON JOURNAL, 12/11)....Red Sox P Pedro Martinez said he
has signed a contract for "around" $75M with the team, which
makes him the "highest-paid player in baseball." The Red
Sox have not confirmed the deal (BOSTON GLOBE, 12/11).
