It's official. Mangini is NOT telling the Vikes who will start at QB
-
yet this little stunt has your panties in a bunch?
you're embarrassed that your coach is.......not naming a starter?
OH THE HUMANITY.....how can we keep ours heads up after having survived the last 30 years?
You don't come across as stupid, choco, so I'm not sure why you're misunderstanding me (unless it's ad hominem attack time like DTBH) or how much more clearly I can possibly say this: my panties aren't in a bunch because Mangini refused to name a starter, I'm embarrassed by the lame gamesmanship of it all.
Perhaps I need to send these dolts a singing telegram?

Not an attack on you here mz the pussy, but I have to ask.....why in the world would you personally be embarrassed by the way the Browns are conducting business?
-
Why am I embarrassed? Because it is embarrassing. Pretty simple. Not sure why I have to keep defending my position here.
The rest of the league sees this for the lame ploy it is. Guaranteed.

Again, not sure I see why YOU are embarrassed by it. Is it affecting your life in some way? Are you having to hide from friends and family? Are people sneering at you or mocking you as you walk down the street? Inquiring minds want to know...

Perhaps I'll bring it up with my shrink this afternoon.Thanks for looking out, fellas.
just askin mz the pussy. Years ago I may have let it all get to me, but its just a game and they're the team I root for and love to watch (mostly, when they don't look worse than pee-wee, i.e. the Frye years) and so I just go with it and enjoy my Saturdays and Sundays with the Buckeyes and Browns, win or lose. -

Neb, some of us live in other cities and hang out with fans of other teams. Mostly when they dick on the Browns, we take it as our usual badge of honor that we never give up. mz the pussy and I find this kind of publicity, about "hiding" your starting QB, to be a little embarrassing in those circles.Not so tough to understand unless you don't want to.
Shep, I am in another city also. My boss is a Steelers fan, one co-worker is a Ravens fan. More of them are fans of other various teams (work on a Air Force base). Same with college. So yeah, I hear a lot of jabs and such, but I am past the point where I would take any of it personally or be embarrassed by it. I jab back and we all laugh about it.
But hey, we each handle it differently. I was just curious about why.

Obviously a semantic breakdown, Neb. I wouldn't characterize the chickenshitting at Westlake High football stadium OR my embarrassment as "serious!"it could be....its all cool....there are just certain things I don't get anymore....lol

Living in a place like LA can't be any worse than living right here in Akron being surrounded by choady Pitt fans. Not too mention so many people are fans of other teams.
Honestly, some of these people equate life success based on the football team they follow. I got over that a long time ago.
People love to hate the Browns and Buckeyes, it's been that way for years. Nowadays, people still hate the Buckeyes but really just get a chuckle out of the Browns. Things like this just add more fuel to the fire, but it fazes me none.
The main thing it's doing is pissing off those gamblers and fantasy players who don't know Quinn is the starter yet.

Well, in LA/Orange County they just equate life success to the car they drive and clothes they have, instead of on a football team. But really, it's the same thing.

There is a sweet new sports bar right down by me in the valley I'm going to watch the Buckeyes game at Saturday. Let me know if you want to hook up.

I think it's Johnny J's or something like that. It's back in the courtyard off Weathervane Lane amongst Brubakers etc. It is a nice bar though, all set up with big screens and patio plus decent drink prices and good food.
