    Be careful. Those goofs in SEC land think Nick Saban or Cam Newton is their star. No wonder they lost the Civil War lol

    I think me and Orion are the Astro geeks. Been doing it since I was six years old.  To go off topic, the farthest south I've been is 11 North in Curacao for the 1997 total solar eclipse. From there you can see most of the southern sky stuff of interest. Crosby, Stills, Nash... When you see the Southern Cross for the first time...  Well, let me tell you it's sort of teeny...  Take the distance between the pointer stars of our Big dipper, and (a little brighter) that gives you an idea of it's size.  

    PS- theoretically, you can see the Southern Cross from the Florida Keys, but during the week I was there for the Winter Star Party, it was always lost in haze above the Gulf of Mexico.

    We took our camper down to Tennessee for the 2017 solar eclipse, it was really cool being in the path of totality. 

    Indian Boundary campground, right off the Cherohala Skyway. 

    Luckily saw the Northern Lights last summer visiting Voyageurs National Park.

  • My nephew in Thornton just outside Denver has season tickets. Guess I will hit him up now to go with him to that game. Otherwise haven't been to Vegas in 20 years or so and will consider that one if I can find tickets.

  • I don't usually do many road games since i have had season tickets.  We both love New Orleans and Las Vegas, so both might be on the docket this year. It will mostly depend on how those games are scheduled.

    Another trip to Denver WTF. Other than that, it looks ok. 

    Browns/Denver have met 32 times prior, 18 in Denver. Denver is 25-7 vs Cle. 

    I heard a rumor the Browns might be playing in Germany next year.

    Yep, it's eventual that the Browns number will come up for another out of county road trip. I agree- probably this year. Three in England, one in Germany, and one in Brazil?  LOL is Japan or Australia next?  

    I guess you could sign me up for Brazil, not just for the football, but to knock off one of my astronomy bucket list items on the side. To get south of the equator to see the sky flipped upside down. The North Star is forever below the horizon there.  ? PS there isn't a "South Star"...

    The sun goes round the wrong way and water swirls down the plug hole in the opposite direction anorl.

    I'm hoping they play Jaguars at Wembley. I think Vikings have the game in Germany. Been looking at our away games and  several of them have MLS teams so that's got my cogs turning, the chance of some Browns action with some of our type of football thrown in could get me clocking up the miles again. Last trip came in just a bit short of 11,000 miles.

    Sorry if I missed it, how did you enjoy your time in Cleveland? I remember you posted you were looking for some good pubs/bars, just wondering where you went?

    Had a right laugh, had a strole out to Brick and Barrel, had a walk out to Ohio City and went in The Angle. Went in Beerhead and Punch Bowl social and dished out some batterings to young uns and an old un on the dart board in Flannerys on East 4th. Was strange when I came out of their at 01.30 as I walked across the square all lit up, there wasn't a sole anywhere to be seen and next to no traffic anorl. Just seemed really peaceful for the centre of a big city. Didn't see anybody till I got back near the flats where there was a few party people mulling around. Everybody I met on the trip were brilliant and the hospitality was exceptional. Was funny when I had my Houston backers shirt on, other Browns fans looked right surprised when I opened my gob, had a couple of 'well you're not from Texas' comments. Went in Rock n Roll Hall of Fame which was excellent, must have spent over 4 hours in there and went in The Civil War memorial which was interesting. A very enjoyable holiday . Will see how the schedule falls and might pop back over a bit earlier in the season next time. Cheers.

    Ranking all 32 teams (including the Browns) by their 2024 strength of

    Interesting, but we all know how this goes. Different rosters, injuries, etc come into play for all 32 teams.

    IF the Browns can repeat the 8-1 home record ( ok, only 8 home games in '24), then splitting or above splitting the road games, say 5-4, it's playoff time again. #woofs

    I'd expect a home primetime game, maybe 1 on the road.

    and hopefully thats it. Remember 2007 D.A's magically lucky year ? (and yes I do believe it was Josh Cribbs getting us a short field to play on, is the reason we did so well) so where was I ? oh yes please no more than 2 primetime games or the jinx will be in

    I have 3 of my 4 siblings (minus the Englander) coming to visit for the eclipse and all we have to do is step outside the back door in an open space past the back fence I keep mowed down to snakeproof it. Saw one in NC back in 1970. They saw one in Wyoming in 2017. Then it heads Cleveland way from here. Hopefully weather will cooperate, but you never know during tornado season. At least the bluebonnets will be in full force early April.

    Wow, I knew on paper the Browns 2024 schedule looks rough, but #1 overall toughest? Yikes. But you are right, schedules that look rough in April sometimes become easier when the season actually starts, and vice versa.

    That being said, I could go for one of those Charmin soft NFC South schedules.
