  1. LeBron James mural in Miami defaced.

    LeBron knowingly feeds the hype, so I don't feel bad about the negative that comes his way.

    I knew the diehard Heat fans wouldn't take it well.

     

    Both of them...

    :LOL: I enjoyed hearing about the mural in Miami, after hearing all the crap from those two Heat fans and there media saying Miami has more class then the mistake by the lake ( :zzz: so 70's) .. Regardless what people think outside Northeast Ohio it has been nice to have some positive news go our way for a change sports wise and landing the Republican convention (not talking politics) Big boost for businesses downtown Cleveland.
  2. The Browns were one of only 2 teams who didn't go to Johnny Manziel's pro day (the other was the Bears). They must have decided Johnny Football isn't very good at football. I would have thought that since they need a quarterback very badly they would keep their options open, but there you go.

    I read somewhere duck that the Browns plan on conducting private interviews with the top QB contenders Manziel, Bridgewater, Bortles.. I don't think they attended any of those QB tryouts. Latest on Cleveland sports radio is there in least favor of Bridgewater and more in favor of Blake Bortles then Johnny football.... But what do they know, it's all just endless speculation.. :huh:

    Who do you like, or would you not pick any of these guys, maybe you favour Carr or Grappola?

    Honestly at this point... I don't know. :P Every week they bring in the" experts" on WKNR Cleveland Browns daily radio talk show and heard plus & minus of all the top three contenders and there analysis the Browns should or shouldn't draft. I favored Derek Carr early on, and i just read he's going have a private work out for the Browns Monday. I'm tired of the guess work , I just hope to God they don't screw this up...

  4. I don't really like this kind of thing to be honest, you can't compare guys from different eras. You can look at stats for what they're worth and count Super Bowl rings but that doesn't really prove anything either.

    So true, without reading up on players from the early eras of the NFL you don't get a complete picture or understanding of what it was like or how extraordinary a player was during a certain time period.Stats do not tell the whole story.
  5. "Factory of Sadness". Yup. Funny but depressingly accurate. I grew up a fanatical Browns fan but lost my religion in '95 (not that I follow another team, I just remain betrayed and sullen). I try to like the new version -- I follow them and watch them when I can -- but it's not the same. And it's not just the results. The New Browns uniforms have always been different and thus not right. Now they're going to go to "cutting edge" uniforms. F*ck. How about they go back to the definitive Browns unis, most recently worn '85-'95? With the white jerseys they were the best uniforms in football. Instead we're going to get a Nike roller derby disaster. Maybe it's better as they'll stop pretending the new team has anything to do with the old beyond the name and location.

     

    That all said, if the organizational leadership pulled they're head out of their *ss and allowed the players to become a winning franchise again, I could forget my sweet/sour memories of promise and heartbreak delivered year in and year out by the old team and embrace the new team. I hope they get Clowney.

    I wished the NFL/ Cleveland ownership group didn't except the "generosity" ? :eyeroll: of Art Modell to let Cleveland retain the team name. Should've just retired Browns and kept the heritage & rich history to the record books. Start a new, cause the reborn 1999 edition never has proven worthy yet to earn the right to carry the legacy of the distant past glory of the REAL Cleveland Browns.
  6. I was watching this live when it happened, amazing game between to tough teams. I think it was a wise move to end game regardless if they should've continued contest at a later date. That's the other side of the argument and a separate issue ..Did hear some boos in the stands when the announcement was made at Nationwide but there was just as many cheering the decision. These kids were broken down running on vapors. Cleveland St.Ignatius is dominate force not only in hockey but basketball and football as well.
