Just to focus on the current ongoing problems like I always say follow the money.  Just look at the guaranteed money and signing bonuses. 

Is he worth what the BROWNS have shelled out so far and how much to repair the BROWNS' image and more.  A colossal mess and they are married to it for years.

Will a Super Bowl make it even ? Maybe.

That is a nice chart.  Thanks for posting.

While it looks steep today, It probably won't look as steep in a few years.

We keep hearing the cap is going up, though we don't know where that may go.  I suspect the teams have a pretty good idea where things are going, and through the NFLPA, agents have a pretty good idea where things are headed.  That is why you are seeing guys reluctant to sign, or just demanding large numbers now.  Right now Watsons slice of the pic chart may seem out of proportion, but the pie is about to get bigger where his portion will fall in to more of the norm that we are used to.

OK Sunday School is over time to go out and play.   Or go take a nap.

Meanwhile,  we have some really nice T-bones ready to go on the grill.  Spinach salad w/buttermilk ranch, black olives, BP w/butter s&p and sour cream.  Chocolate mouse pie for dessert.  ️ 

Now who didn't see that coming ?

NY strip, baked 'tater, broccoli, Pine Club onion rings.  LOL and plenty of wine.  Rombauer chardonnay, Marques de Caceres Rioja Riserva, and a special birthday after dinner treat- a 1992 Taylor Fladgate vintage Port.   

Though I don't normally advertise it,  besides our British Browns Backer Gareth Hubbard, I also share a birthday with Jerry West. 

And before I get grief from the temperance police, haven't had a drop today- yet.

We generally go ribeye, porterhouse,  strip but occasionally some other cuts demand a look depending on marbling,  price and other things.   Oh BTW the T-bones were really good tonight,  great potatoes and a good spinach salad w/sides of black olives and really juicy artichokes.   Mmm-mmm. 

Better STOP  before we get exiled to the GAMEDAY food thread !

I'll take you up on that bet for a root beer. If you say nothing more about the Browns QB Watson, you win the root beer. I'll take a caffeine free Coke Zero.

Just for the record nothing wrong with thinking Watson is a scumbag. I think everyone here, as well as  in Berea believes he is and we just all have our own levels of dealing with it.

Also ....

Ahh forget it. I'm having Chinese for Memorial Day.

A lot of holidays Susan has her children and grandchildren over for a pool party at I get the hell out of Dodge. I visit my sister in Carrollton and on Memorial Day the only restaurant open what is the Chinese place God bless them. Of course Chop Suey and chow mein are as American as apple pie. Which probably isn't even American anyway. ?

Normally we would visit Jimmy's Backyard BBQ.

Of course, most of us have the opinion Watson is various shades of a scumbag.... But there's no need to keep on beating your opinion of the matter into the ground- say around 20 times.   

Speaking of China... those folks there are getting pretty sly. I just got an email (very authentic looking, supposedly from Directv) with a return path of at&tservices.cn, not at&tservices.com . .cn is China.  ?  Cybercrooks are upping their game, use extreme caution.

As far as Watson it seems like everybody else on the board is fine with it. I'm holding my nose and wishing for the best. People have short memories. Good? Bad? Who knows it is what it is.

Frankly I don't think it should be against the law to be rude to women. I think it's the woman's job to tell DeShawn pay for your fucking massageand g t f o. That's what I'd tell you if you asked me for sex. ?‍? And I figure prostitution is a two-way street. On the other hand if any of my friends were going to hookers on a daily or weekly basis it would creep me out oh. How about you?

But honestly I would root for Watson before I would root for Michael Vick. I bet some of these guys would be fine with Vick.

???

??Yeah the way they deliver anything gets stranger and stranger exponentially as the years go by. I have DirecTV and Spectrum and Verizon for my phone and DirecTV is now a t and t oh... probably all going to be consolidated sooner or later. Or fractured even worse.

Back to the subject of legal matters apparently there's one more dame that decided to file a complaint. For what that's worth. Which is probably not very much.
