Cleveland FOX Affiliate Sends Dwarf To Marvin Lewis’ Press Conference (Video)
Someone sitting front and center at Marvin Lewis’ press conference on Wednesday certainly spiced things up.
The FOX affiliate in Cleveland sent local legend “Lil’ John” Rinaldi to Lewis’ weekly presser in quite possibly the greatest troll job of the NFL season. In case you aren’t up to speed on the latest controversy to rock the league — OK, maybe not — Lewis recently made some insensitive remarks during an interview with a Cincinnati radio show.
In the midst of saying he didn’t care who was under center for the Cleveland Browns, Lewis called Johnny Manziel a “midget.”
Lewis came under fire for the comment, and although he eventually apologized to Manziel, FOX 8 wasn’t quite ready to let him off the hook. Rinaldi was an active participant too, getting a few zingers in there with his questions.
“Based on the height difference on a player like Manziel how has your defensive approach changed for Sunday’s game?”

What do you think? Leave a comment.
“Hoyer likes to stand tall in the pocket and Manziel likes to move around. What challenges does that present to your defense?”
Lewis answered both questions, sidestepping the awkwardness as best he could.
