  • let the kid catch up to the speed of the game. H&H must see something that piques their interest. True he has had his share of miscues in pre season. Hopefully

    he can learn to relax and let the game come to him. Me betcha he gives 110% in practice which has saved him from the prior cuts. Giveemhell Owen

    I majored in physics, almost double majored in biology, course away from a minor in chemistry and a minor in math. Now I am currently working on a masters in biology. Physics and chemistry are wayyyy tougher than bio, as far as undergrad is concerned, though. The interdisciplinary stuff is where it's at. What year is your son?

    He is now in his 3rd year at Kenyon. And yes, it is molecular biology. I believe he said he has to take about as much chemistry as he does biology with that major.

    You wanna compare brainpans? I won the Westinghouse prize when I was 12, big deal. Published at 19, so what. I got a double doctorate from MIT at 22, Chemistry and Geology. I taught at Princton for two and a half years.

    Liar, liar, pants on fire.

    I won the Heisman trophy in 1974...and the Nobel Peace prize in 1982 and the Congressional Medal of Honor in 1983...and hell, they gave it to me even though I never served in the military. A first in the history of the USA.

    But then I got married the next year. So, none of that mattered. I was always wrong in any conversatin with my wife no matter what my credentials.

    (I will say this...it may be possible that my son has a shot at going to Stanford grad school. My wife's uncle was a language professor there. Not sure if that helps...especially now that he is deceased.)

    i'd like to add, there is nothing i'd like better than Owen panning out and becoming a big contributor to the team's success. i'm pulling for him--FB is a pivotal role in the AFCN and that position needs to play at a high level. the team is putting all their eggs in one basket with him and need him to be successful badly. but the reality is, currently he's miles from Vickers' talent on the field and there are indications that he might be soft.

    in my mind, infinitely worse than bad blocking and poor technique (usually correctable) is not attempting to take a defender on at all. there's no room on the team for pussies. not saying he is one, just saying it absolutely can not be tolerated from the Browns FB position.

    i cordially invite you to prove the naysayers and myself wrong owen. actually i challenge you....no, i beg you. get er done.

    congrats on your boy Gip, now back to football plz.

  • Well, since we are hijacking this thread, please allow me to chime in with my intimidating credentials.

    I am almost 65 years old, never spent a day in a college classroom, yet my grammar & spelling are far better than a lot of these alleged geniuses! In addition, I weigh a little over 200, can't hit my weight, am 5'8" & can't dunk, run about a 6.5 second 30 (can't go 40!) & have a 5" vertical leap. Who cares! I have 7 wonderful & loving Grandchildren who think I'm a champ & I love them AND the Browns!!!

    Mike

    ps: I think Owen will do just fine.

    IN DORSEY I TRUST

    LMAO how is Ben Watson going to retire in 2 years?

    You guys act like people cant play football after 30 years old.

    Notice how I put a -4 after the 2 year guess. Better people have retired younger.

    Ruining threads since 1897.

    No, not med school. He is into plant genomics and the like (yes, stuff that is Whoosh, over my head). To brag a bit here is an article on him where he won the prize best presentation at his symposium. (yes, my screen name is based on my real name):

    I work part time at a golf course in central ohio where we have quite a few plant genomes on staff. Stay tuned for my from-the-heart Browns board biography.

    OK, I admit, my biography as stated earlier is not quite accurate. I didn't win the Heisman or the Nobel Peace Prize or a Medal of Honor. But, I will be glad to give you my life story...and it starts out like this:
