Mike Holmgren might be interested in mending fences with Jim Brown, but don’t expect Trent Richardson to do the same.

The rookie running back told Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com that he had no interest in talking to the man who so often referred to him as “ordinary” before and after the Browns took him with the third overall pick.

“He has his own thoughts. That’s him being him,” Richardson said. “I have no problem with it. I just wish the best of luck for him whatever he’s doing in life.”

Among other criticisms of the current regime, the Hall of Fame running back zeroed in on Richardson, saying he didn’t see “anything outstanding about him.”

“I laugh at the situation,” Richardson said. “You don’t know me from spic to span. But he’s Jim Brown. He’s done a lot here and I haven’t done anything yet. I have a lot to accomplish and big shoes to fill.

“When it comes down to it, I have to work and make sure I make him a believer. I haven’t done anything yet.”

There are times when Brown comes off as a cranky old man, complete with the “get off my lawn,” tendencies.

At the same time, he’s Jim Brown, perhaps the greatest running back of all time. Treating him with a little respect is still in order.

You can't blame him for the era he played in.. He is one of the greatest backs to ever hit the field.. HANDS DOWN!! There is no need to say what he would have done in today's league, b/c it isn't fair..

He wasn't a smooth runner. And I'll be the first to admit that you can't decide on which era you play in.. But in the 60's the average O-Linemen weighed roughly 260lbs. Jim Brown was over 220. hahahah He was bigger than everyone. He ran high, didnt have the greatest juke moves. He benefited from playing against white lbs and dbs... No racism but yeah, no wonder why he got off. If I had to compare him to a player of recent memory.. It be Eddie George

Trent ain't gonna diss the old man. He is real humble respectful and laid back. But he is a beast on the field. I just hope that OK State QB is the real deal and he beats out lil colt McCoy so Trent won't have the pressure of being the savior. Aint no rb getting !! with no passing threat
