    Or with Watson.

    True,....now it comes down to actual talent and accomplishments....No one outside of Cleveland thinks Baker is in their Universe. Thats the bottomline...more talent..more a team will put up with

  • My expectations and approach to watching sports has evolved along with my approach to life the last couple years. I’m more interested in spending my focus on positive things and being less invested in things l have no control over. The results have been good. I’m no longer that guy who gets overly bent outta shape when the Browns lose. 

    I always figured it wasn’t realistic to expect all football players to be really good guys. A couple traits that make you really good at football, violence and aggression, don’t go over so well in the ho hum outside world. 

    When you get down to it, Browns games take up maybe 3 days of the year. 17 games at 4 hours each = 68 hours. While l love my Brownies l miss a few games for work or other obligations, so we’ll say l spend 2 days a year watching Browns games.

    I probably spend considerably more time than that on football adjacent things throughout the year. Reading articles, talking football with friends or family, tooling around this site, the draft, watching Draft Day, etc.

    In some respects those football adjacent things are the more positive aspects in life that l’m more interested in these days. Sports is largely a platform to create great memories with friends and family for me. Come baseball season l’m a Reds fan, and right now they’re slashing payroll and getting rid of good players, and they’re most likely gonna suck this year. I got friends who are losing their shit over this. But me, l just can’t wait to spend another season taking my daughter to the ballpark. 

    So how does all this relate to a guy like Watson? I don’t spend much time focusing on the lives of individual players outside the game.There are exceptions. The guys who l deem positive forces in the world, l want to support and amplify what they’re doing. I follow a guy like Nick Chubb on social media. I bought a Chubb jersey and a couple boxes of Chubb Crunch for my daughter for Christmas. 

    A guy like Kareem Hunt? I’m aware of what occurred, l saw the video, it was damn ugly. I like a good redemption story so l hope for that, but l also know it’s important to be prepared if that don’t happen. Like l said, traits that make you good at football don’t necessarily make you good at life. His character is not my focus. 

    Bottom line is anything you do for enjoyment should be enjoyable, so if you’re not getting that out of it, find something better. If a guy’s character flaws make it hard for you to enjoy his work, then change your focus off of him or off of his work, whatever it takes.

    According to the talking heads on ESPN, they only give the Browns an outside shot at landing DW.

    Which means, we’re going to probably end up going through the recycled QB’s available in FA.

    Who’s the best of the worst? Mariota? Jimmy G?

    Right now... I go after Jimmy G... What the Browns did was despicable to Mayfield... Whether or not you like Mayfield... They treated him like shit.. And he didnt deserve that AB and Jimmy are still dumber than a bag of rocks... jimmy needs to sell the team STAT!

    to me   Watson = Cam Newton

    except with  more sophisticated means of manipulation 

    First off, welcome to the board? 

    Second, what does this even mean?

    thank you -I think?

    watson sits out a year because he didnt like the GM player moves?

    league wide interest and the man can have his pick of team ( his right by contract yes) 

    and a manipulated browns front office acting this out with contradiction and disregard for a guy who actually earned the spot. {Mayfield}

    kind of the trend in takes by a few others here - maybe even you? i dunno

  • U on mine right now...LOL!!

  • Browns were informed they are out on watson. I don’t know how the hell you move forward with baker. Gotta trade him at this point. 

    AKA SNATCH98 or Rorbotron. The boards glorious admins decided to get cute and change my name to "homotron" Classy group of people. (Lost a bet with Columbus king and got banned for a month)

    This move came with a lot of risk. Not sure he’s a slam dunk success story. Time will tell. Jimmy G and Carr May still be options. I do like AB’s aggressive approach.
