Ghoolie Always Ghoolie Posted May 12, 2023 Report Share Posted May 12, 2023 Some of you maniacs are already insisting that Watson is a bust, our team will blow, and in general we are fucked. People, it is way too early for this. We must be optimistic. We must be hopeful with high playoff expectations. That way, when all this shit comes true we can really.be miserable. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob806 Posted May 12, 2023 Report Share Posted May 12, 2023 I'm optimistic, year 53 lol. They added some decent parts. Did the analytics team analyze their coaching strategies? That is the key ( for me anyway). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the key ( for me anyway). Here are my current-day feelings. Each one of us has some personal level of tolerance for buying into the new year optimism, only to wind up embarrassed and disappointed in our team. But the most important rock in that storm, to me, is there is no other football experience like the Browns. Pick ok out whatever you want, Jim Brown, Kelly, Mitchell, Red Right 88, The Drive, the Dawg Pound, Cardiac kids....and you know, I could name this stuff all night. We all could. The universal cord this team strikes with people is astounding. I'm on a cruise ship and some Sweedish guy talks to me about the Warfield trade....no shit. So, what this means, is it's better to believe and get duped, than it is to be a fan of any other NFL team. We're going to the show. If not? We still win. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Browns have entered their 4th decade of suckdom. Remember they sucked during the 90's too...which was before they moved.

Orion Posted May 17, 2023 Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 Right now we've got some players. Since Stefanski became coach we've had pretty good reason to think that we can have a good year. (be that coincidence or not) But for two straight decades we've had virtually no reason to think the team would win many games. For me, rock bottom was when Ray Farmer was GM. I felt total hopelessness. Now, the nagging lingering cloud over everything is the owner. If he's going to dictate the style of play that the HC must employ...then...that's bad...because that's just one more thing to have to overcome...like injuries and poor officiating.  We're tied for 1st right now. Go Browns!  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
