I don't like "older" Browns fans...

This idiot thinks he's getting upwards of being an old guy...at 27.
This is your brain on dope.

Once you hit 30 start buying the Viagra......

for sure and he's no Ghoolie.Does anyone else smell the strong scent of Troll meat
so to make his point he pulls three teams out that are carbon copies of old school football that he just slammed.@walterwhite said:
Oh sweet Jesus, spare me the "I used to walk 8 miles to school in the snow" been around the block jargon....
For fucks sake the generation before you pulled that same shit on you.
Have you guys seen the atmosphere in Seattle? SF? Carolina? It's fucking embarrassing how better it is in those places.
I'm tired of this fucking rotting, dying, corpse of an organization that needs a pulse of Youth and Swagger.
The Old Browns are DEAD. DEAD as a fucking Door Nail. All the fun shit that my dad used to tell me about in the dog pound is over. Bringing kegs in, passing joints, girls flashing tits, fighting Steelers fans, throwing batteries at Boomer Esasion and his hair do... It got replaced by bullshit PC political correctness, guys who drive Volvo's and wear Khahki pants and complain when you stand up t cheer. The past 3 Browns games I went to I either got kicked out, or had to deal with some fucking Bouche' Liberal Dad complaining about my "language". This team has been a disaster since 1999 and my language is the fucking problem?
I love the old school dog pound guys that used to chuck beers at opposing teams heads but as far as the shit I see in the stadium now, it's embarrassing. It's full of suburban dad's that don't want a young exciting player like Manziel here....
What because our qb isn't black? U act like these new age teams are runnin the exotic options and wishbones and 2015 madden user designed offenses.
Oh and by the way chump the three teams u mentioned don't even have a runnin qb as good as Steve Young who was doing that shit when u were still playing with ur own shit outta ur diapers.

Older Browns fans have had been blessed with memories of what is was like to be a rooting tootin Browns fan back in the glory days (for me the pinnacle was the late eighties). We supported with pride teams with a true legacy who knew what it meant to put on the Browns colors. We rooted for unified teams with strong leadership on the field. If you didn't leave it all on the field every play and every fucking game.....you didn't play. Players didn't get married to their skank ho's during the season. You played through injuries and illness that today's players would never think of suiting up for. As cliched as it sounds it really seemed to be a team with solid "blue collar" ethics that the fans endeared themselves to.
Old Muni stadium was the Mecca of all things Browns. It was a rite of passage to make the pilgrimage for all the true believers of the Browns faith. Short of molesting young children or going on a shooting rampage most behavior was tolerated. You didn't have a bunch of homos squeezing your horse balls to see if you had any "contraband" upon entering the premises. There was none of the "no boooze after the third quarter" chicken shit and you could get as fuckered up as you wanted as long as you could make it out of the gates with or without your buddies help. i don't condone this, but yes, there used to be some hellacious fights usually when the squeelers came to town. In the stands, pregame, postgame...anywhere anytime Fights were not the exemption but the norm. I witnessed Browns fans tipping over a car and giving the occupants a pummeling when they tried to drive through a crowd in front of Muni.
All I want to say about the current state of Browns affairs is that the culture of Browns pride never migrated from the old to the new version 15 years ago. Maybe someday soon they can bring in some personnel who can motivate and lead......Until then i refrain from draft evaluation and other speculative matters because i just don't have the fuckin energy anymore.
I knew things have changed in Cleveland forever after the 2012 St Louis game. As I stood in a mostly empty stadium throwing every imaginable insult at the Browns players I was confronted by a young mother with her teenage kids. She tuned me up pretty good regarding my behavior, but all I could do was look at her and her boys while shaking my head in utter disappointment and yearning for a time long gone. So it goes....

We should draft a smash-mouth running back like Trent Richardson and good pocket passer like Brandon Weeden.
Forget Russell Wilson or Ty Hilton, we got ourselves a good blue collar sumbitch DT like John Hughes instead.
Zach Mettenberger has a sexual assault charge, he's a laid back country boy, who gets injured, and got picking his nose and eating it on TV.
I think he'll fit right in here...
Your still suffering from diahrrea of the mouth I see. First its pretty safe to say we are aware of the fact Trent is NOT a good smashmouth running back and Weeden is not a good pocket passer. Trent can't find the holes in swiss cheese and Weeden never could pass from a muddy pocket.
Obviosuly we would all love to have Russel Wilson. I am sure when he was drafted you knew he was going to be a stud and should have been a first round pick?? Of course you did. Ty Hilton is meh ok....... I am going to go out on a limb here and say Josh Gordon may be just a little bit better.
Get off the Mettenberger kick already. There may be one guy on the board that would draft him high. The rest of us OLD and YOUNG guys have mixed opinions of who we think would work out best here and if any of them are franchise guys.
Overall you are just here to piss people off iwth your fuck stick comments. I will give you this, you are good at trolling.

I suspect he posted the same kind of post on several other
team discussion boards.

I see you have qualified "old" as born before 1965, so as a 1964 baby I will deliver a response from the OGP (Old Guy Party):
1. Every single older Browns fan I talk to wants a Lumbering doofus QB who's AT LEAST 6'4 230 pounds with a rocket arm. These are the same assholes that continue support for Weeden. I just heard some douche bag say he wants Zach Mettenberger over Manziel because he's a prima donna. Manziel is too fun and exciting for these old men bleeding deacon so of course they want a classic pocket passer. God forbid we have some fucking excitement
I really don't think anyone, old or young, wants "lumbering" or "doofus".
At least 6'4 230 lbs? Sure ... if they are mobile and football smart with a quick release and can lead. Because that describes the two guys in our division who beat us down twice a year and have three rings between them. That size also describes the prototypical super bowl winning QB from any generation, including this one. If Manning wins on Sunday, then nine of the last 11 Super Bowls have been won by guys 6'4 or taller. Not ... 1960's ... 2001-2014. Today.
That said, we all just want the best QB. Personally, I am on board with Bridgewater, and Manziel is my second choice ... both smaller guys that can move ... because they are the best prospects in my opinion.
"You young guys" think this Manziel phenomenon is something new. Wow, a young, ballsy guy who can throw on the run and beat you with his legs ... this is the new NFL! "Us old guys" say: You don't have to tell us what works, we KNOW what works. Fran Tarkenton worked, Steve Young worked ... these type of guys CAN work. In fact every generation, every decade, has had "the ballsy guy who can throw on the run and beat you with your legs". If you ask most Browns fans my age, their favorite Browns QB of all-time is not the 6'5 lumbering Kosar, but the 6'1 shoot-from-the-hip Brian Sipe ... because he was very exciting. Who doesn't want exciting? Did you know he was the NFL MVP? Maybe look that up.
Hey, you know that Steve Young guy on the NFL Network? He is what Johnny Manziel aspires to be. Could beat you with his legs, could beat you with his arm, could beat you with his brain, could beat you any way you could possibly be beaten ... and did. Not afraid to take a hit either ... took so many he had to retire early. But not before he wrapped up a Hall of Fame career with the highest passing rating of any retired QB.
I think I speak for most of us when I say it was much more exciting to watch Young and Favre running around making plays and taking hits than it was watching Aikman sitting in a pocket delivering the ball like a robot. But we will take whatever wins. six foot winners win, 6'6 winners win ... just get us a fucking winner.
2. They act unless you have 5 fucking pro bowlers on the offensive line then you have to take an offensive linemen at all cost in the first round.
I don't know anyone on this board that wants to draft an offensive lineman in the first round this year. If they do, then they need their head examined. We need to always be upgrading the offensive line, and we definitely need better run blocker on the inside, but playmakers come first. Having a stud left tackle is half the battle with the offensive line ... the key is a cohesive 5-man unit that plays smartly together. And some beef.
3. They all want a smashmouth running back. Dude, nobody gives a shit about smashmouth running backs anymore. Quit living in your fathers fucking NFL
Apparently Pete Carroll still gives a shit, because he just rode one to the Super Bowl. Last year both teams in the Super Bowl were smashmouth.
This statement of yours is stupid.
You don't have to find them in the first round anymore, you can find them just about anywhere, that is good news. But you still have to be able to run the football to win, that is the critical news.
Seeing as one team has a 6'5 lumbering QB and the other team has a smashmouth running back ... you have really painted yourself into a corner this Sunday.
4. Rant over.
OK, then. 27 years old? We've had one playoff win and three winning seasons since I was 27 years old ... can I rant now?

- Well... as usual I do... and this year I'm actually considering a guard.

I want someone like Joe Kapp
LOL... or Bobby Douglas... (that ought to send the kiddies to the google machine...)
so to make his point he pulls three teams out that are carbon copies of old school football that he just slammed.
And he threw in the astute observation that stadiums packed with fans watching their team win get raucous at no extra charge...

Nah- Zombo answered his response far better than I could. I'm probably one of the more senior members on the Board- and please don't paint every guy on the high side of 60 as a football moron. Sure we know the game is changing- but it still amounts to blocking and tackling. With age come perspective on the game. Yeah- Jim Browns was a rare talent- but he was running over defensive ends that weren't any bigger than he was. It was news back in the 60s when a player topped the scales at 300 pounds- now it's news when a OL or DL doesn't. Plus, Goodell is doing his best to pussify the game. Turkey Jones probably would have been suspended for a year for piledriving Bradshaw, and Jack Tatum might have been kicked out of the league for paralyzing Darryl Stingley.
AND, BTW, in a passing league, you need as many quality cornerbacks to defend passing as possible. I'll take Richard Sherman and his smart-ass attitude for the Browns anytime, thank you very much. Patrick Peterson would be nice too.
As far as bad fan behavior- that's more of the NFL's NATIONAL stand, not just in Cleveland- same as the ridiculous security rules- going way overboard banning women's purses IMHO. BTW, as far as standing up and screaming obscenities- give me something to cheer about, and I'll stand up too, and you don't need to cuss to get your point across.
PS- to the OP, maybe you're too young to recognize the difference between "cocky" and "arrogant asshole". The latter tends to disrupt team chemistry.

See, here is where you are stupid. For all anyone knew TR could have been the next Marshawn Lynch...but he isn't. BW3 could have been the next Peyton Manning....but he wasn't.
You think the people that drafted those guys wanted them to fail miserably? No.
We old fuckers wanted them to be the next Marshawn Lynch and Peyton Manning too. It didn't work out. That was a matter of bad talent evaluation and bad luck. It has nothing to do with body type etc.
Terry Bradshaw was a good ole laid back country boy....so is Peyton, so was Favre.
I guess you want to stereotype everyone. Well, here is a stereotype that might fit you: sphincterface

it's funny every other teams fanbase has successfully made this transformation no problem. I bet ur crowning moment since '99 was throwin ur lunchables juicebox on the field during BOTTLEGATE. Doesn't get more dawgpound than that.@walterwhite said:

This is what I'll say as a younger Browns fan in general. I talk with my dad all the time about the team and we get into similar arguments as the OP does. Dad, along with you older posters, can remember the days when the Browns were actually relevant. In my life (born in 1989 so first memories are after the team came back), the Browns have literally been the laughing stock of the NFL. Even the year we went to the playoffs it seemed fairly obvious it was a fluke year. At least you older posters have the memories of being good, we don't. It's not like anyone likes seeing the team be this consistently bad, but I can't emphasize how much of a difference that makes.
I don't think I know it all, but I don't generally disagree with what the OP said either. The NFL a little more each year is embracing the 'mobile' QB. Once the patiarchs of the NFL retire (the Mannings, Big Ben, Brady etc), more and more QB's will be the mold of Cam Newton, Colin K etc. I guarantee the rules will even become more favorable to atheletic QB's as they are now. To say this team needs a OG and CB to become a playoff team is a fool's mindset. It used to be you could easily stack up on defense and win a super bowl. I can understand why older fans in general think that's the way to go, but you have to open your eyes to the bigger picture. the NFL is trying to become global and make as much money as possible. Our generation hates watching 7-6 games where defense reigns. We want Manning throwing 5 td's and our fantasy teams to score 200 points. Goddell like him or not understands this and is changing the game around that idea. Bottom line: Time to get a QB who can throw and run.
I am pleased to see that some of the younger generation is as polite and literate as yourself.

Military family, I didn't have much of a choice haha. The only thing I'd strongly disagree with a lot of you on is stadium culture now and then. I don't think it's sad that most stadiums across the NFL are enforcing stricter rules on language, taunts and the like. You can do a lot of good natured crap-talking but you don't need to be a dick about it. Frankly it brings the whole fan base down when some drunken moron starts acting like well, a drunken moron. Don't get wrong, some opposing fans deserve it. I have no problem with home fans calling out an opposing fan for being a dick. But honestly, the two or three times I've seen the Browns as the away team I've had a hell of a lot better time just bullshittin with the home fans than being a baffoon.
If we want more Browns fan in the stadium, win some games. Honestly, how much do you blame people of my generation for not going to a Browns football game? I mean Jesus, the economy still sucks and to spend the money it costs to watch the Browns shit the bed is laughable to me. I live in NC so I don't have the opportunity to go, but I wouldn't even if I could.

Agree - Good natured shit talking makes it fun and I always enjoy that with opponents fans. Virtually everyone on this board supports that while being strongly opposed to being downright abusive or physical.

They make my god damn head want to explode. They want to build a 1960's team in a 2014 era.

Well, I'm one of the old folks, and I would take Manziel in a heartbeat. There was a guy named Fran Tarkenton in the "old days" that had a good bit of Manziel in him. I also like Zack Mettenberger pre injury. I do like smashmouth running backs, and they still have a place in the NFL, they're just not a 1st round value right now. I don't like loud mouth wide receivers. I like the Jerry Rice and Ozzie Newsome types. Catch the ball and don't bitch.
It's got nothing to do with age. It's just a preference. (Also, never cared to be refered to as "dude".

to the OP.....who are these old geezers who continue to support Weedon? In fact i'd like you to find me one Browns fan of any age and of sound mind and body (ie not with downs syndrome or something)...who still wants to see Weedon out there.
