2023 NFL Regular Season Through Super Bowl LVIII

I don't know about that, but I'm sure it didn't make them any better at football. Also, college was way cheaper and more valuable back then. -
2023 NFL Regular Season Through Super Bowl LVIII

In the early 80s, my buddies and I were watching a Browns game and one of the announcers said that the Browns had the most college graduates of any team in the NFL. It was something like 80% of the team. We thought it was really cool that the Browns were "smarter" than all the other teams. All those degrees didn't do all on the field, but Browns fans will take any win they can get. -

I much prefer the old Browns to the new version. We lost our team and the fans somehow lost 20 football IQ points in the process. -

The Browns weren't team futility before they moved to Baltimore. In the Super Bowl era through the move in 1995, they made the playoffs in '67, '68, '69, '71, '72, '80, '82, '85, '86, '87, '88, '89, and '94., and they only had nine losing seasons in that span. They made the conference championship game in '68, '69, '86, '87, and '89. Point being, the Browns are not a good example of being awful forever before they achieved "crapping the bed" level. They'd been crapping the bed all along which might be even worse. -

For those old enough... This is not a knock against you or your point, but why is it that we automatically give young people a pass on not knowing sports history? It wouldn't kill them to learn that Houston had a much worse collapse in the 1992 playoffs than the Lions did yesterday. Or that the Browns existed and were breaking the hearts of their fans in the playoffs well before 1999. If we make a reference that was "before their time" they can look it up and learn something. This concludes my get off my lawn speech. -

The issue I have with Campbell going for it on 4th down is he didn't need to do it with a 24-10 lead. This isn't week seven against the Vikings. You're playing in the NFC Championship game, take every point you can get. Especially when you have a 14 point lead. -

I hate old Scooby-Doo reruns. The ones with the Harlem Globetrotters are OK, but the rest of them. -
You can say whatever you'd like to me in response. I don't let my personal feelings influence my mod duties.

Pull that giant stick out of your ass and Google goofing around. And change your username to "I care way more than I should" while you're it

Oh, for 's sake, are you really going to the mats over a joke post?

I'm probably ruining my 10-0 start with these picks, but I gotta follow my gut. Kansas City vs. Baltimore Detroit vs. San Francisco -
Probably something like this. Plain ol' street hooker... $10,000 call girl...
