i apologize for the first part of my post I was not trying to be harmful and am sorry if it offended ghoul or stans family or anyone else here

Apology accepted. Just remember bro, football related insults are all a goof. Nobody should ever be offended by barroom talk as it relates.to our fanship......but when you cross the line onto  commenting personally about any poster, then you soil the board. It demeans us to do that because it shows us to be so over the top about foot all, that we forget about people

For instance..in the case of my fat lard azz...I take no offense. For 40 years of.my life I was a perrenial 30mile a week rinner and at ave 60, in front of a dozen onlookers I benched 405....8.wheels. Hope.to do it at 65, next year.

Now, arthritis in my.knee and some medication for a different conditioned, couple witj my.eating like I was 25 has pumped me up. 

Now, I am not at all sensitove about it.....BUT....what about posters who may be overweight and who ARE sensitive about it? Imagine hpw the more timid might feel.

Just think, bro. Think how vulgar Rickles was on stage, but he was a great, compassionate guy on the real.world. Football isn't the real world.

Me and you are okay. You must be a good man to applogize. GO BROWNS

Me and Stan at the Paris buffet in Vegas. I think about 2 years ago. I gotta do something to commemorate Stan in Sin City.

Just curious, why haven't you moved there yet?  You have been talking about doing so for like 5 years now.

My wife is a principal and a successful and substantial Wealth Management Firm, and their CCO. I have just today accepted Venture capital for a start up based around a thunderously impactful  new water purification invention,we just this week recieved patents and PCT approval for immediate patents across the globe.If I had a regular.job the move would have already taken place.

In the coming months qe will biild a pilot/applications testing plant, and a full-scale manufacturing plant.

Once that stuff is underway....poof.....I am gone.

I am headed to my second home, Las Vegas on December 3d. I have a lot of great things planned but am going to take some time and visit the haunts that I know Stan liked. and some places we shared drinks and laughs.

I was just informed Friday by our Caesars casino host that Caesars Entertainment will have a luxury box and we will be invited to watch football, and most likely, opening day at the stadium. How nice it would have been to get my buddy in with us. I drove Stan crazy trying to run down a friend of mine who performs as Pee Wee Herman on the Strip, now Freemont Street. Stan ran him down and sent me a video, then told me to STFU about PeeWee. I think Drew (his real name) and I will have a toast to Stan.

Again, Stan and Kathy were at Paris for two days that Cathy and I were at Caesars. I missed seeing them, and could never have fathomed that I would never see him again. Man, the Ghoolie stuff we had planned to piss you guys off. Stan and Ghoolie in Raiders garb......

Stan loved Vegas, I love Vegas. I am going to have to come up with something to have Stan forever noted on the strip. I have no idea what it will be, but it will be something to make him proud. I think I need to send Lew Merlettis a case of Miller Light bottles and tell him to shove them up his asss. That would be a good start.

Simple question: Who do you think will be the better NFL QB?

Don't really care. I care about the Browns wi. ing it all. Mayfield is going ro make that happen. Mahommes is a great kid and a QB. Comparisons i sult.both of these qbs.

Baker bleeds Brown and Orange. Thatmakes him better.

Without ever meeting any of you guys, and never talking to the man, I consider the ones I have conversed with pals, even Ghoolie. 

Prayers to his wife, children, family, friends, and all of you guys who knew him. Its never easy losing someone close, even harder when it is unexpected. 

Father, we pray that you take care of Stan, like we know you will. And we pray you ease the hearts of all those he left behind and help them get through these tough times and celebrate all the good times he had. Amen

I consider you a pal as well Gunz. You love the Browns, that makes us all family.

Very emotional win today.

These are some of the best posts ever on The Browns Board, and I'll get back to all of you tomorrow.

For now, I'm just going to enjoy my beer and Fireball in my "I Hate The Steelers" tshirt and think about the one thing Stan bitched about for 20 years: "I just wanna see the Browns play a solid game for 60 minutes on both sides of the ball" ... He got that today.

Thanks for reaching out to me, John. This is beyond words, and beyond tears.

Today's game was thunderous.

Board stuff aside- this is why even though we might disagree- It's why we're here. this is one big family. Drawn together because we love the Browns. (some may not admit it, but deep down you do) We've lost folks- some that don't post anymore like Rich or Bees Indy, and some that have gone on to a better place like Fat Dad and Kathy Hutchins.

There's many, many great guys I would have never gotten to know as friends if not for this board.

So RIP Stan- that win today was for you.... 

Thank you so much for the call today, brother. It's been ages since I heard your voice, and at the same time it was only a moment ago.

The stories about how Stan created TBB as an AOL off shoot I think have been shared a lot, by more than one of us. I think however the reasons Stan created TBB have not been shared, or at least put up on a pedestal properly.

Many think that Stan’s love for the Browns is the fuel that formulated this place, but it isn’t, and it really never was. Oh, for sure, the unfair treatment of our core AOL group helped instigate Stan’s effort, for we AOL posters were being treated the same way NFL refs have treated our team. However, if you want to really learn something about Stan, I hope you will read along as I share my own personal journey with him.

Nearly 2 decades ago Stan pulled together a phenomenal tailgate for the Inaugural 1999 return of the Browns. He enabled many cyber friends to cross into the realm of real-life friendship. He enabled me to turn my once online hated rival Rich4Eagle into a beloved friend. Stan’s efforts brought me many other personal and lifelong pals, West Side Steve, Flugs, Chicopee John, I still think Hoorta and Zombo, and many others.

Oddly, at the 1999 inaugural, I barely introduced myself to Stan. We were antagonistic to each other. Both perhaps not enamored with the other’s ego. It was not until we discovered our mutual interest in Las Vegas years back that our friendship really grew and soared.

How sad it was this morning for me to receive a message from Zombo that my suspension had been lifted. I say that because his message also included the horrible news that is at this moment ripping a piece of many our hearts out.

Some might say, “how odd that Zombo would reach out to Ghoolie, I thought those guys hated each other.” Hmm, and now, we can begin to see why Stan created TBB.

A few years ago when I wrote an Irish composition for John (Zombo), Stan told me in Vegas that I was gay, that Zombo was gay, and my love song to him was proof positive. All kidding aside, the real story here is that it was TBB that facilitated that song. It facilitates a hell of a lot of our songs.

Stan created this place out of his love for people, for knuckleheads, for every odd nut, bolt and spacer that ever cheered for, cursed, and scratched their heads over the Browns. Stan created for us the real life “Cheers”, a place where everyone knows your name. Zombo, Hoorta, Ghoolie, WSS, Stinkhole, Vagitron, Gunz……

To the dismay of many, Stan and I seldom talked about TBB, and it was Stan who asked me to be here, not the other way around. However, Stan didn’t ask me to be here because he knew I was so great that the board couldn’t get along without me, no, he knew that I, me, Ghoolie, could not get along without TBB and my dear friends; friends who know me away from the Ghoolie schtick. On several occasions I asked Stan to change my screen name to Tom. He refused. In fact, Zombo changed my name back from Vesna Kociper, because to my extreme humility he felt Ghoolie needed to remain a part of our place.

In recent times, like me, Stan had fallen out of love with the Browns, even saying to me that I was right to want the new team to be named something other than the Browns. The reasoning being so that the new owners didn’t get a free ride and take advantage of our undying love for what had come before. But Stan was wrong, and I was wrong. The “Browns” whatever that is, is us. Pure and simple, it is us, and my beloved friend Stan Aten created a place for us.

Stan and I planned to post a picture of he and I wearing Las Vegas Raiders shirts in Vegas this coming winter. Two weeks ago we were each in Vegas at the same time, but missed each other. My God, that is yet another spear in my heart. I was so close, so nearby Stan and Kathy, and we missed signals. However, at the end of the day, Raiders joking aside, we talked about us. You, me, the knuckleheads, the oddballs, the fans who just need a place where everyone knows their name.

Stan…………..I know his name……………I knew him and I loved him.

God Bless you Stan, us, we, everyone here will never forget your name.

Give your wife her dildo back.

History says that no  Big 12 QB will be much good as an NFL QB.   Since that league was formed from the Big 8/Southwest Conf. schools in like 1994, the best QB to come out of there has been Andy Dalton.

But....I think that trend has to change, and these two are the best candidates to make that change.  I just hope the right one is on our side.

WTF DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING? School history? Like what? When a guy registers to go to a school his skills are automatically limited? Dude, how many times did your mother drop you on your head?

I said it a bunch of times to the guys who wanted us to draft Barkley. RBs don't win championships, at least not many unless they have a great team around them like Emmett Smith.

The Browns can't even win a fukcking game.

ok.  I wasn't on this board back then.  I had no clue of your take on Richardson before he played a down with us.  But I can tell you this, I don't value the RB position as highly as you do......because I live in New England and have watched the Patriots win super bowls with washed up RB's.  I view the league as an offensive, passing league first and foremost.

....oh, and when Richardson started out pretty good with us, Jim Brown changed his tune into, "I see some of myself in Trent Richardson."  Perhaps he was talking about his (Jim's) non willingness to block.

I think Jim was merely being kind and politically correct. He couldn't very well dis the kid after we drafted him. New England has lost a bunch of SB's too, so, that passing game isn't all it's cracked up to be?

Look, here is what you young pups and zealots continue to miss, year after year after year. Whatever football is today..............a passing game, a running game. it always changes, always has, always will....and, great players can change the game. They always have, and always will.

I can tell you this much, a human being, with talent and drive from God, will, 100% of the time, make you analytical, buzzword experts look like jackoffs. Barkley is that caliber of player. When a guy like him comes along, all the draft analysis goes out the window, and you take him. Case in point.................... If you didn't know the story, and I told you that a head coach with Jim Brown on his team, used a #1 pick to go get a Rookie FB, you would go on and on and on with analytics, and bullschidt about how you don't draft a RB when you have a great one. 

BUT.............you would be, as you are now, wrong.....100% wrong......... That is Exactly what Paul Brown Did. Gee Orion, if you were around back then you could have given your draft analysis bullschidt to PB and taught him something.

Sorry man, it doens't fukcing matter who is own your team, when you have a chance to take Barkley.....you don't take Baker................. WHO BY THE WAY.......would have been available at 4.

It's June 2018.  What's different now than it was in June 2012 when we drafted Trent Richardson?  (you have to put Richardson's failure out of your mind....because we're comparing now to June 2012)

------

Butch Davis was lousy.  He drafted Gerard Big Money Warren, when all the scouts told him Richard Seymour was the pick.   And he drafted Winslow...who had a 15 yard unsportsman-like penalty in just about every game he ever played.  He was a dope then and a dope now.

I didn't want Trent Richardson. I hated that Shmucking pick. When I quoted Jim Brown as saying Trent was ordinary, you guys went ballistic. Really, you guys are fukcking jackoffs. There is no commonality between Barkley and Richardson. Nothing at all. Oh, they played the same positions? Ahhhhh... I see,   so as long as you draft someone at a position, it doens't matter how well they play, all that matters is that you can come back and say.... hey, we tried a RB before it didn't work. SO then, why draft a QB? We did that before, too.

Again, I am past the annual "I told you so" of all the years past. THere is no more fun watching you guys run and hide after this board is flooded with " Ghoolie Was Right Again" posts.

Saying that Dosey "nailed it" before a single game is played, is just more annual browns fans arrogant, self-important BS of "we are way smarter than the rest of the teams", only to watch Big Ben, Wenz, Petersen etc etc etc help their team win while we go 1 - 31. I support Dorsey because honestly, at 0 - 8, I will be bored out of Browns town.

If it were my team, I would have drafted the best player first, and taken one of the even  money  BIG QBs at #4. My beef with this franchise is that they purposely refrain from taking the top playmakers in the draft.

We will see if Dorsey knows something I don't.

Very sad to see this...Now when I think of this.. and the stupid bike stuff.. And then I think of how Big Ben could've been drafted by the Browns.. BUT! BUT! BUT! the great Andrew "Butch" Davis intervened.. And drafted "WIN-SLOW"... There's that sound that goes "THUD" And your heart sinks back to reality.. But this year figures to be different.. "fingers crossed"

Nick,  I hope you are right. I have always maintained that the reason the Browns continue to suck is that they have purposely refused to participate in drafting the very top tier playmakers. Winslow, Manziel, Quinn, and we refuse Big Ben, Petersen, Wenz, and on it goes. I want this team to win, because honestly another losing season pretty much will have me bored to death. My interest is on its last leg as it is. 

If I am being honest, I believe the Browns completely fukced up another draft. I believe the proper draft was Barkley at #1, and whichever of the three 6"5" top QBs was left at #4. My gut tells me this is going to be another year of watching the guys we didn't take run wild. Sadly, if we do blow this again, it's time to find a new team No more "rebuilding" for me.

For the record, I think the Browns made a mistake not grooming Kizer and giving him a real opportunity. I hope Jackson does well. The kid will be breathing down Flaccos neck.

Tuneman, can you explain to me how "Jackson doing well" and "toasting the Ravens franchise" jive together? Breathing down the starter Flaccos neck right?

GM Dorsey did not take him because that man can draft. 

I called Kizer a buffoon. Still, I wished him the best. I don't believe he will do well, but, he is a nice kid. He got drafted, people are calling him a dumb butt. He had better poise in the process than I WANNA BE A COWBOY Zumba girl.  I think he will flop, but I hope for his sake he does really well. Jives perfectly well.
