Survey Monday...Browns/opponents survey
-
I grew up near Erie, PA. My Dad is a diehard Browns fan, he got me into the them during the Kosar years, but I was too young to appreciate what I was watching at the time. I remember my dad fuming mad when Bill cut Bernie. I was about 8.
So the Bulls: Two of my cousins were big into the Bulls and I always looked up to them while growing up and we visited a lot, that was part of the lure. I was never really a basketball fan, I was a Jordan fan and a Bulls fan by association.
What are the freedom fighters?
You don't know what a freedom fighter is? In theory: a person that fights for the liberty of his country. You know, like in our history, the likes of Nathan Hale, Patrick Henry, George Washington. In other countries the likes of Simon Bolivar, Lech Walesa.
In some cases, there may be people that we disagree with as being "freedom fighters" but who perceive themselves as freedom fighters (where we may think they are in fact simply a faction that wishes to bring their own form of tyranny and oppression to their people....Fidel Castro, Che Guevera the VietCong, the Sandinistas, even the likes of Osama Bin Laden who may think of themselves as freedom fighters)

In the context, I was confused why you were bringing up "freedom fighter". I still am, kinda...
PS Thomas Jefferson is still my favorite, despite the haters.

3. Who are your Top 3 Most Favorite NFL Players that did not play for the Browns (or your favorite team)?
Dick Butkus, Johnny Unitas, and, what the heck, Mike Vrabel
I should explain. Mike Vrabel's dad taught at my school, even though he went to Walsh Jesuit.

Yes, I guess I was being a little obtuse. I was analogizing that a Cleveland fan having Michael Jordan as a favorite player was tantamount to an American having Osama Bin Laden as a favorite "freedom fighter". Its a silly stretch, yes, but somewhat apt, nevertheless. I let this guy off because he is from Erie, and not really a Clevelander.
And, just out of curiosity, who is "hating" on Thomas Jefferson? I mean, the guy wrote the Declaration of Independence for crissakes.

You may be here, but you weren't there.
On Jefferson, I don't think it is about the children he may have had with slaves that would give rise to "haters".
I have heard that there are actually some moronic, fringe right-wingers out there that want to blast TJ for his politics....or more to the point, distort his political philosophy....or ignore it because it doesn't fit in with their own views:

oh gosh .. I can't role my eyes harder at that kind of thing.
Not to get political around here, but some right wingers are way too loud and just ignorant.

Not to get political, but I was referring to the decision in Texas to remove TJ from all school text books (the issue you correctly link to).
Back to the subject at hand: I also loved watching MJ play. Just a phenomenal player to watch.

Yes, but you know, in my opinion, LeBron is a more spectacular player. LBJ needs to win some titles, but his "Wow" factor exceeds that of Jordan.

It's difficult to compare considering Jordan played in a time when the hand-check was still legal. I think LBJ is a better defensive player than MJ, but MJ takes the trophy of best overall player, IMHO.

Well the Jets playoff game was pretty damn hard to beat but if we are talking games that i have seen personally then it would be my first ever game in Cleveland which was the Seahawks win in overtime in 2007. Not a bad first game huh!
2. Who are your Top 3 Most Favorite Browns (or your favorite team's) players of all time?
Matthews
Slaughter
Kosar
3. Who are your Top 3 Most Favorite NFL Players that did not play for the Browns (or your favorite team)?
I have a soft spot for the Bucs because they were the first team I ever saw play as a kid on a Disney holiday back in 81. That's what got me hooked on NFL football - it took another 8 years to settle on a team - Thanks to one Jamie berger from Cuyahoga Falls who convinced me to become a Browns fan in a pub in London in 1989.
4. Who are your Top 3 Most Hated Opponent players of the Browns (or your favorite team)
Rod Woodson
Troy Polyanna Hairdo
Heinz Baked beans ward

The only thing that MJ could do better, in my opinion, is hit the outside shot...and at winning those titles. But LeBron is becoming much better at the shooting, and hopefully he will start to get the titles under his belt.

Perhaps you are thinking about a different game, but I thought it was against the 49ers that Kosar was hobbling around on the fractured ankle, yet still managed to pull the game out. In fact, I believe it was a Monday night game.
