Errors and Omissions – Gerber tried to give the MVB to Joe Johnson. No idea which Joe Johnson he was referencing. A Joe Johnson played in the NBA, another Joe Johnson won the 1986 Snooker World Championship as a 150-1 underdog and Dr. Joe Johnson is a highly regarded international speaker on unleashing your purpose. None of these Joe Johnsons played for the Browns last week.
