The Brownies in Brazil(?)

AP1

Peter King is saying it could be the Browns playing the Eagles Week 1 in Brazil.

I've got mixed emotions.

It's nice to be recognized for that Prime Time slot.

I don't want distractions and hoopla. I just want to win.

it's philly's home game they are taking away, so either way I guess it beat's playing in philly. Also if we do play on that friday night doe's that mean we do not have to play on a TNF game ?

syd

also since elton john and gnr are playing on are field the following week, Guess that means no home game till at least week 3

Fuck that shit...

They should invite the real Girl From Ipanema to toss the coin. She still lives there in Rio.

No thanks. Don't want Watson in Brasil.

Now there’s a reference not everyone will get, haha. I’m a fan of the flick “Get Yourself a College Girl” so l know the song. Some great music acts in that flick. The Animals, Jimmy Smith and the Dave Clark 5. Mmm hmmm.

That's kind of how I look at it... I wouldn't want the Browns to lose a home game, but since it was supposed to be in Philly, I'm fine with it.

Just a week or 2 ago, I put my jibberish in a thread about the need to play a game in Brazil saying 1 fan-base would get screwed. I even brought up what if it was a game where Cleveland was supposed to host Baltimore or Pittsburgh. Now I learn what teams are likely to be playing this; and it's on a Friday Night with a non-conference team losing one of their home games. The waiting to exhale is over...

And the one who sung it, Astrud Gilberto, died last year.

Joint practice's vs Minnesota this year and not Philly. Kinda points into that direction

I'm not sure if I want them that far away from home.

Ireland, UK, Italy maybe .... keep your head into the Game #1 and #2.

GO BROWNS !

I don't like it, but the NFL has a world of untapped fans.

Brazil doesn't excite me. Germany would be a blast, & I heard Tottenham is great.

I think it'll be London this coming season, any of you chaps up for it if it happens. I'll pop down all weekend and show you round Londons finest boozers, I don't drink in shit holes and I have a vast experience of drinking all over that city through organising off season days out on the piss round there and hundreds of visits pissing it up around Leeds awsy matches. I must be one of the only Northern fans with more imagination than visiting the Dolphin, Mabels and Euston flyer. The English lads on here will know what I'm on about. Greetings from Munich, this is my 7th night away and I think my insides are pickled.

It's this fizzy German beer, they're all like lagers, better than that Fosters rubbish that some of my mates drink. I can't wait to get on it before I come out then after a week of it I'm pining for a pint of Taylors Landlord or Exmoor Gold, the type of hand pulled real ale that I slurp at home with no fizz. Just 3 nights to go then fly back Monday if they aren't on strike. I can highly recommend Munich, lovely place.

I went to a Scottish bar in Cincinnati a few years ago and ran into Belhaven beer.

Pretty damn tasty.
