Cool show. It made me more excited than the lackluster Cleveland 95 a football life program. Its neat to see the behind the scenes stuff like Dawson's closet of shoes and weeden picking out balls

Jimmy has been owner for a few months and the Browns already are getting exposure. I loved the show, and finally feel that the corner that we have all been waiting to turn is within sight. GO BROWNS!

Finally Cleveland has another good sports team owner. Now its time to get the Dolans outta here.

Awesome Show!

Amen.

The only bad thing about the show is the fact that it was only a half hour. I thought it was to be an hour long show.

Also, the number of commercials was daunting. I would wager that of the 30 minutes of this program about 12-14 were taken up with commercials.

That is also the problem now with NFL games.

I will let you in on a little secret: I now rarely watch the Browns live. So far this year I have only taped their game and watched them later, fast forwarding through the commercials and half time. I have no interest in watching fucking commercials.

If I am watching live TV I ALWAYS change the channel when commercials come on...even for a show I really like.

What's a commercial? I think the last time I watched a commercial was during the super bowl. I watch all the Browns games live but immediately switch to another game during the commercials.

I haven't watched the show yet but I heard this morning that they showed some footage of fans tailgating before a game and my cousin was on the show. I'll have to check it out tonight to see it.

Well, I actually have another reason for not watching them live: I want to live. The stress of watching them live has gotten so bad that I get chest pains if I do it. Seriously. So I will tape them and watch it after I hear the final score. If they win I watch the game a couple of times. If they lose, I will sometimes watch it....sometimes watch part of it...and fast forward through other parts of the game.

[Mark O]

I know how you feel. It would be nice for us to win a game every now and then that doesn't require sedatives to get through.

[miktoxic]

yeah but it did show some of the players.

dawson had a big segment dedicated to him. as did the 2 first round rookies.

for a person that's outside of cleveland and the state (it's cool to get to see some coverage on the team you root for. god knows espn has failed. sure, i know if the browns were an elite team, that would all change. i just hope when it does happen someone's man enough to tell them to go fuck themselves.

but i gained new found respect for TR (even weeds). i never get to see any interviews or anything from these guys and to see TR talking to jim brown, playing videos and saluting the troops and to see both him at weeds at a cav's games was awesome to me. all along weeds has looked like a dolt to me. the fact that he could actually put 2 sentences together and out speak that cavs executive ..... i almost shed a tear into my gina and tonic.

made me really miss ohio (for about a minute....HA!)

[PoeticG]

I can't fucking believe I fucking missed this show...

I even KNEW it was coming on TWO FUCKING DAYS before it aired.

I hate watching part 2 when I haven't seen part 1 yet or even if I haven't watched part 1 recently.

I was going to set the DVR to record but I didn't know the channel, argh- another excuse. I could have easily looked for the title or scrolled through a thousand channels... WHO the fuck needs 1000 channels anyway. FUCK. I had a rough day and the Woman is bitchy. Sure would like to watch it now though.

I loved that last sentence from D'qwell.

Plus.....it wasn't really all that good IMO.

[Mark O]

Really? I heard it was pretty good.

I guess I'll like anything that shows the Browns, is about the Browns or anything that mentions the Browns. But I haven't seen it yet, I'll probably watch it tonight.

It was certainly better than Cleveland 95 a football life which was disappointing and gobbled belicheck's weiner.

[miktoxic]

i can see where someone wouldn't think it was that good. i'm like mark o: give me anything with the browns on it and i'll watch. i could really care less how many kicking foot shoes vs. plant foot shoes dawson takes out to the field or how a guy gets a football ready. but it was interesting to someone that is not a football or locker room guy to see how a pro team's staff preps everything, how the ground crew handles bad weather, and how the in-house production team does direction of the the scoreboards and jumbotrons. hell, i didn't know that the browns had an in-house broadcasting 'room'. in know of carrucci but i didn't know he was employed by the browns directly.

next week they'll prob show us the dallas game that they eluded to.

god bless mrs. haslam for making this team relevant again. maybe the players after seeing this will step up and play at that next level.

Which was the point of the show as I understand it. To show that Belicheck, despite what the media thought, was building a winning organization and he had quite a strong coaching and scouting staff as evidenced by how many of the people working for him went on to other NFL jobs. The tough part for me in watching that was the fact that the Baltimore super bowl team was the team that got started in Cleveland and was built by Belicheck and his staff and we as Browns fans should've been able to see the end result.

[The Cysko Kid]

Maybe I'm reading too much into this which is certainly possible, but in the opening montage where they showed jerseys being constructed they showed number 12 at least twice and number 3 zero times.

[ballpeen]

All I am saying is I don't know how many people outside of Browns fans found it compelling TV.

I watched it and will watch next week......I just don't know if people KC or Chicago will find it all that interesting.

Just saying....
