And then you all jumped on the bandwagon of another team that was "ripped away" from its city. FWIW, I acknowledge that Baltimore got screwed in 1983. What I won't do is feel bad for you about it now. Browns fans are funny that way.

I missed it by one game.

BBTV has been named the official CCSLC CTE Expert. The Majestic XII have spoken.

Good enough. I'm designating you as official CCSLC CTE expert.

It was an observation. Talk about whatever you want.

DISCLAIMER: The following post is just an observation based on some of the posts in this thread with regard to Antonio Brown. As far as I know, none of you are experts on CTE. As far as I can tell, most of you are smart enough to know that A doesn't necessarily cause B. The preceding post was not a "mod post" or a warning of any kind. It was me being amused by all the amateur neurologists we suddenly seem to have around here. My only regret is that I worded it in such a way that it could have come across as a warning and that was not my intent. Carry on.

Fair enough.

Look at the bright side, at least no one is talking about how the humor of the 32s thing flew right past you.

By my count "thirt" has two consonants in a row before it gets to a vowel. "Dirty-twos" is even better than 32s and it's a perfect fit for the Dan Snyder era.

What part of saying a number is tripping you up?

On the serious side, Red Wolves is "incredibly lame", IMHO. Let's take one of the most generic names in sports and throw red in front of it. Talk about uninspired. You know why I like 32s? Because it doesn't lend itself to a bunch of Nike bull- trying to explain how a red wolf has ties to Congress and Dupont Circle.

Who wants to glorify a year in the height of the Great Depression? It just sounds lame and most people outside of diehards won't know what it's referring to. Who cares? It's a fun name.

I unapologetically love that name and have followed suit with BASS as just using that name when I refer to the team. We have the best listeners in all of podcasting. We got your back, Jer.

Another thing that never gets old around here - watching some of you get all bent out of shape over a name like 32's (I don't give a flying that it's not supposed to have an apostrophe. The apostrophe makes it look good and I like it.) It's a fun name ya bunch of buzzkills.

Whatever it takes.

The apostrophe gives it some flair.

There are worse options. Most of the ones I've seen, in fact. 32's or bust!

Ask and you shall receive.

Watching this place go full Zapruder film over a teaser video never gets old. And I mean that in the best way.

For the record, I'd be fine with the WFT being renamed the Triangles.

There is but one name for the WFT that works at every level and that name is the 32's.

Setting aside podcasts, etc. - The short answer is local radio is on the way out because radio doesn't like to spend money. As a result, you're not getting hosts capable of bringing in an audience which results in low ratings which results in less ad revenue which results in less money to get good hosts. When faced with the choice, radio management will almost always choose to pay someone 10 bucks an hour to board-op a national show over paying a local host real money to do a local show. Frankly, I'm kinda surprised local sports shows still exist and I say that as someone who worked in radio for a long time. FWIW, I haven't listened to a local sports talk show in years.

No relation. Not spelled the same way. Bernie Kosar and Heather Kozar. Still, props to Tim Couch for punching well above his weight.

This is the Browns we're talking about. Put me down for $50 on bombing. And I'll throw another $50 on the Browns using a top five pick on the 17th best QB in the draft.
