      I like Assante and think he could be a force to be reckoned with. However, I still have to question where he was drafted. It's on of those weird situations where even if he turns out to be the next Polamalu, it's still a bad pick. We could have easily gotten him in the 4th or even 5th rounds. He hits like a truck, and has tons of potential though. I can't wait to see him play though.

      I'm pretty sure you are talking about tj ward. If ward ends up as good as polly he was a good pick, imho any pro bowler is a good pick in the 2nd round

        That leatherhead hat of yours too tight CFFL!!! ๐Ÿ™‚

        Having ANY decent safety play will make me happy this season - It's been a frustration of mine (and yours I'm sure) seeing the hole plugged by underachievers and filler inners for the last few seasons. I'm keeping my eye on Ward and assante in camp as a priority. (I say my eye, I'm going to have to rely on Atenears reports as usual)

            $300 is ridiculous

              Is it?

              Lets do the math.

              $300.00 divided by 17 weeks = $17.65 every Sunday.

              Will you spend more than $18.00 at the bar? Probably.

                i usually don't spend that much at the bar and i even drink heady brews. some of the games are on in my viewing area as well, so i probably go to the bar 6x a season. i'll be in the stands for 3 games this year, too ๐Ÿ™‚

                  If you live in market, then I think NFL Sunday Package is a waste.

                  I donโ€™t drink that much, but you also have to eat. The bar I would go to, I can easily spend $12 without thinking. And thatโ€™s with the $5 mini-pitchers and half-priced apps (8 wings is a full meal for $4.50). Plus tax and tip? If I stay at the bar for 2 games (which we often do) then thatโ€™s at least one more mini-pitcher and one more appetizer. Thatโ€™s easily $20.

                  You may be the exception to the rule, as most people who go to the bar to watch a game spend at least $20 to $30, not including gas.

                  $17.65 a game is a fairly reasonable price actually.

                    sounds good on paper, but 16/300=$18.75 per game.

                    if you can get drunk and still keep your bar bill below that you must be about 50 lbs...(and a super shitty tipper lol) ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜„

                    $300 is ridiculous

                    huh. i could've sworn i paid $350.00 the year before last using the 5 payment flex-pay option. $300 doesn't seem high to me actually.

                    EDIT: i see your follow-up post now. bar cost is the dilemma i had, cuz i drop at least $50 by myself. this year my fan uniform will probably consist of brownie underwear, socks, and a beer coolie as i fart freely and avoid drinking and driving from the comforts of my own couch...considering a DUI generally costs about 4X the price of season tickets (4K +) i can definitely see the value @ $300.

                              I have had the ticket since 2000. And yes it used to cost $169. And now it is nearly double that but the math is right on the money. You spend a lot at the bar. And people forget that you get to watch any game not just the crappy one that they are showing on your local stations. And with picture in picture you can split the screen and watch two at once. I absolutely love the ticket!

                                What kind of beer is that? Natural light cans or Bud family bottles? Or the Beast on tap in a dixie cup? Just curious.

                                  What kind of beer is that? Natural light cans or Bud family bottles? Or the Beast on tap in a dixie cup? Just curious.

                                    1/2 mile? That's great. You can go watch the game, get shit faced and stagger back home in 10 minutes!

Just to give you guys a heads up for NFL Sunday ticket this year, Last year I payed 275 and this year its over 300 for the same crap. I dont know why it went up but it did, I will pay it like always but this is getting really expensive.

                                      If I lived in Cleveland I would try and get season tickets, now I have to pay the 300. Honestly, after all these years paying a arm and a legs, whats 30 more. I cant live without the Browns during football season, I will eat bread and drink water to save money, to be able to watch them.

                                        The Browns signed fifth-round draft pick Larry Asante, the team announced Friday evening.

                                        The Cleveland Browns today signed defensive back Larry Asante to a multi-year contract, the team announced. Asante was the teamโ€™s fifth round choice (160th overall) of the 2010 draft.

                                        A three-year letterman at the University of Nebraska (2007-09), Asante started 36 of 39 games, registering 224 tackles, three interceptions, three forced fumbles and one sack during his collegiate career. Born on March 7, 1988, the 6-0, 210 pound Asante is a native of Alexandria, Va., where he attended Annadale High School.

                                        Another picked signed. That's good to hear.
