    I'd rather they focus on winning games, but much like facilities and apparel sponsors for college football, if this helps attract talent so be it. I just want to win.

    I'm agnostic on the "move" to Brook Park. Without offending some of you in NE Ohio, I feel like I'm in Cleveland when I'm driving on 71 between Lodi and Medina all the way to passing Painesville on 90. Suburbs, suburbs, I know, but Cleveland to me.

    Do you believe this is the second time Cleveland lost the Browns?

    Or this more like the Rams/Chargers playing in Inglewood, the Cowboys in Arlington, the Dolphins in Miami Gardens, the Bills in Orchard Park, the 49ers in Santa Clara, the Jets/Giants in East Rutherford, and the Commanders in Landover?

    I agree.  Being a Clevelander doesn't have to mean you live inside the city limits of Cleveland.  It's called Greater Cleveland for a reason.  As with you, when I drive up from Tennessee, I consider myself in Cleveland once I hit Medina.

    They take the big words out of the newspaper in Medina ?

  • I live in Berea, the new site is about 4 miles away from my house. I'm not liking this, but we pretty much knew it was a done deal.

    I like the stadium downtown. The tailgate atmosphere is fantastic, just pick your spot. Well, that's going away to a cookie cutter style in every other city with a dome in the middle of a parking lot- BOOOOOOOO. Sorry, just my opinion.

    I doubt I'll be a part of it as a season ticket holder. Like in Buffalo, the prices will be ridiculous.

    Maybe, in a weird way, this gets the Browns going in the right direction. The Vikings, save a few seasons here or there, haven't done a damn thing since moving indoors. They were an outdoor powerhouse until the 80s, so perhaps the reverse is in order for Cleveland. 

    I know we've debated dome vs outdoors tirelessly, but even with my aging bones I prefer the outdoors. But I realize a dome could be great for the region.

    Go Browns.

    I have to hand it to you, that is the most logical piece of illogic I've ever seen posted on this board.??

  • I Guess it will cost Cleveland, if he is correct, about 30 million bucks in revenue every year?

    A lot of small businesses may be hurt.

    Whatever. They should wait til they are a super bowl team. I figure they went

    and splashed the gigantic watson trade to help them get there, to get their new stadium.

    But it blew up in their faces. We always loved going to the games once in a while, but at this point,

    the best seat in the house, is at home in front of the TV.

    Or "syntax" haha

  • I don’t live in Cleveland anymore, so it won’t cost me a dime. But after being a season ticket holder from 1999 to 2017. I would rather it be a dome out in Brookpark. The downtown site sucked. Unless you were a tailgater. Which I did maybe once a year. And we still would take the train in and meet friends in the muni lot. I never drove my own vehicle to that mess down there. 

    The new place will be used 200-300 times a year for numerous things. That place down on the lake was used 15-20 times a year. Way more money for the region, and Jimma Dee, I know, but the family is putting up mega millions to build it. He should make money from it. And I don’t like them and wish they would go away, but what other Billionaires are coming to town to spend that kind of cash? 

  • I’m glad I got to visit the stadium on the lake before it went. I liked that you could visit the bars downtown and just walk to the stadium it’ll be a shame that’s no longer possible

    Welcome back.

    I am pretty sure it will simply boil down to swapping watering holes.  In my book a pint is a pint.  It doesn't really matter where you are drinking.

    I'm sure there will be plenty of bars built by the new stadium.

    With Watson as the QB, the fans will need them

  • The sooner they can leave this stadium and it's horrendous history...the better!

    It won't matter if H-ass-lam still owns the team...With the garbage they have been producing... I have very low hopes of anything good coming in my lifetime... Guy's like Larry, Steve,Cal and Myself don't have forever... And I know I'm missing a few others... But we don't have anymore time for this retooling/rebuild shit... Can we get Jimmy G off the street even?... Will have to check that one... Injured? or elsewhere?.. I don't know.. I think a smart vet could do well with this team.. Too late for playoffs.. But at least make a fun competitive season and find out who may , or may not be back next year... The Browns pooched themselves in to a dark corner with their bungling shit up.. I don't think DTR is more than what he already is.. You expect more flashes of brilliance by now.. But yeah.. His sample size is minute.. I'm just not seeing it with him either... But I love his attitude...

    Yeah...but by the same token, he doesn't get to work with the starting offense.  He's usually running the scout offense against our D.  I'm assuming that they're going to want to get a good look at him from here on out.
