  1. Nor do I. People are losing their minds over cutaway shots. Would they prefer more cutaways to drunk guys acting like buffoons in the stands? More cutaways to some coach talking into a Denny's menu on the sidelines? Taylor Swift is a huge star. If I were directing those broadcasts you can bet your ass I'd be using her for cutaways.
  2. Funny how a person with the name dont care is the only one who cared enough to take that seriously.
  3. Dollar Store Montana vs. the Walmart brand Patriots. Imagine the merchandising potential.
  4. Speaking of the NFL Championship, the Vikings beat the Browns to win the last "NFL Championship" in 1969. It was little kid me's first taste of what was to come as a Browns fan. Someone smarter would have switched teams right then and there. I really liked the 49ers too back then because of their uniforms and I thought 49ers was a really cool name. And Gene Washington was my favorite player. How different my NFL fandom would have been if I'd bailed on the Browns and jumped to the 49ers.
  5. Norwood was number 11. Bass's is number 2. 1+1=2. I'm just saying...
  6. The Clevelands were pretty solid in 1986. If memory serves, they won 84 games and looked to be on the upswing, but it was obvious two weeks into the '87 season that wasn't going to the case. They were abysmal in 1987.
  7. I still have my copy of this SI baseball preview. SI missed the mark by just a little with this one. The Clevelands would go on to lose 100+ games that season.
  8. Pretty much. I got my first subscription to SI when I was a kid in 1974. I even remember the cover of the first copy I received. I think my last subscription ran out in 2018. From 1974 thru 2018, there were stretches when I wasn't a subscriber, but they were few and far between. SI was the gold standard for a long time. What happened to it is a shame.
  9. For reference, Andrew Luck's entire NFL career was only seven years.
  10. As someone who used to have to go to these things, I wish I could say that is the dumbest question I've ever heard at a sports press conference, but it wouldn't even make my the top ten. My guess is the NFL isn't her regular beat. She sounds like someone who was there because she was the only one available for the assignment that day. People that are actually in sports media ask way dumber questions than that. Like unbelievably dumber.
  11. Warning points are just that, a warning. You're welcome to stay, but the trolling has to stop. The ball is still in your court.
  12. You've been warned twice now about the trolling. It's one thing to have bad takes, but it's clear that you're doing this just to get a response about of people. I don't like to go full mod on anyone, but you've left me no choice. This nonsense either stops immediately or the moderating team will take action. That means you have a decision to make. Do you want to troll your way out of here in a blaze of glory, or do you want to stick around and try being a contributing member of the community? It's up to you. Full disclosure, I don't care either way. Consider yourself officially warned.
  13. Houston vs. Baltimore Green Bay vs. San Francisco Tampa Bay vs. Detroit Kansas City vs. Buffalo
  14. Kick to the balls? Hardly. I don't speak for all Browns fans, but I'm happy for Stroud and Mayfield. I never drank the "Browns are serious Super Bowl contenders with Flacco" kool-aid. Anyone with eyes (probably people without eyes too because it was that obvious) could see that Flacco was still throwing two picks a game during his run and that the defense was nothing special on the road. The best thing about this season was that the Browns made the playoffs without Watson. Anything after that was playing on house money.
  15. I believe the kids call that karma. I also believe the Browns could have had this exact season with Baker Mayfield at QB. Instead, team management sold their souls to the devil and here we are. What makes it poetry is that the Browns can't even sell their souls without screwing it up.
  16. Which part of being told to stop trolling tripped you up, sunshine?
