  • Awesome. I grew up in Baytown and work in Laporte currently. I'll have to give that bar a shot come gametime...

  • H-Town I have a single question for you. Are you an Astro's fan?

    If so, you'll have a taste of what it means to be a Brown's fan. I'm hoping your jumping on the upswing but I feel it necessary to prepare you for the worst.

    As for A&M, I can't blame y'all for jumping the Big 12, due to UT's unbelievable selfishness but I still have to hate you and Mizzou for jumping ship (especially when OSU and OU's pussy ass should've made the jump before y'all had the chance.)

    However A&M has always been my second favorite Big 12 team as the first college football game I ever watched was an A&M game and, with the help of the original 12th man, I became a college football fan.

    If you can do one thing for me though, don't be a common Texas douche. I know I talked some shit previously but I'm a Goddamn Browns fan for God's sake. As long as you hate UT you're good in my book.

    End drunken rant. Go Thunder.

  • Yes I am an Astros fan, and yes fk tu.

    We left the big 12 because we wanted to play real football.

    And i don't know what a common Texas douche is, but I'm probably it. We good?

  • Let me add that I was there for the 77-0 debacle. That changed sports for me.

    We good outside of the leaving the Big 12 nonsense but I'll agree to disagree on that one. Welcome.

    And sorry for my Cards ruining all of those promising Astro's seasons. At least y'all are in the AL now.

    Sorry again for being a dick. I'm drunk and don't get to talk shit much on here.

    Holy shit I remember watching that. I'm an OSU fan so I was terrified.

    Edit: After a Google I realized we got our ass beat 52-9 the previous week. I must've blocked it out. OU used to be really fucking good.

    Small world made even smaller by the internet...

    First, to any Ag it's TU not UT...

    SAW BOSSY's HORNS OFF.... SHORT.... SHARP.... WHOOOOOP!

    Second, all Ags are schooled in becoming uncommon Texas douches... it's a mandatory course... 😉

    Seriously, it's an amazing campus atmosphere.

  • Taco -- the Pujols homer and Brad Lidge squat will be forever ingrained into my brain. He was never the same after that. Neither was I.

    Tour -- actually I'm from the other Baytown HS. Lee, however, destroyed us in every sport. Are yall sure you want me as a fan?

    Also, it's tu, not TU, and the horns that we are sawing off are "varsity's" --- they aren't worthy of capitalization.

    New question: what's the post touchdown, in stadium celebration song?

  • Varsity's... really? lol...

    Been too long to remember which of their five numbers they played after a TD...

    And yesterday I forgot to mention my Fav Aggieland eatery yesterday... Freebirds. Really miss that place. Puts Chipotle Mexican Grill to shame...

  • Houston native and Texas Aggie here, and excited about my new favorite team. Manziel jersey and draft hat purchased and ready to go. I am familiar with Kyle Shanahan as a Texans season ticket holder, and (obviously) with JFF as an A&M season ticket holder, but other than that I'm a total noob. I have spent 4 days total in downtown Cleveland and had a great time -- I have told many folks that I think you have an underrated city. I hope to male the journey to watch the Browns beat the everliving s*** out of the Texans in November as well (shouldn't be too hard). Looking forward to rooting for a team making strides to actually win football games!

    A few questions:

    1) What websites/news outlets do I need to follow?

    2) How do you feel about the new coach/GM?

    3) What are the biggest obstacles facing this team in 2014 (besides the Gordon suspension)?

    4) What are the top 5 Browns Twitter handles to follow?

    5) What's gonna happen with the WR crew?

    6) Other miscellaneous information I need to know?

    Thanks in advance!

    Disgruntled long time Cowboys fan here. I hate Jerry Jones and what he stands for. I love Manziel, i was crushed when the Boys passed on him. I am excited to follow the Browns and your road to the top.

    Did not think 'Boys fans were allowed in Katy... not since it became a Houston suburb anyway... 😉

    Welcome to the Board...

  • I have spent a lot of my life rooting for the Texans and Aggies....

    And then whoever plays tu and the cowboys.

  • Wow. Someone just told me they were at a mall in Houston that has two Lids stores and they are completely sold out of browns hats...

    lol... no...

    My money is on our Michael Vick... minus the dog hate... I hope...

    Michael Wilbon (sp?) raised one comparison that never occurred to me... Jim McMahon.

    The cockiness... the competitiveness... the leadership... not the worst I've heard.

    As you are from East Texas I am sure you know about the Manziel Blue... a breed of fighting cock named after his family...

  • I have followed Texas A&M football since Bear Bryant days in the 1950's. What you get with Johnny Manziel is not just a QB, you get the best all-around athlete who has ever played the game at A&M in over 50 years of watching them all. This kid throws so well running to his left because in high school he was a .400 + hitter as a shortstop who constantly put those left running throws to first on the money with authority. He's also a just over par golfer. And one other thing to consider, Mack Brown at UT was offering him a scholarship as a safety, not a QB. He was so confident in Mack Brown being wrong that he turned down his dream school to go to their rival and win the Heisman as he made himself the player he knew he could be. When this kid says he wants to be the best that ever played the game, he isn't boasting, he's setting a bar.

    All I can say is I'm now a Brown's fan and this is going to be one of the best carnival rides any of you have ever experienced. It's been that way for the last two years of seeing him in person like nothing I have ever known in all my years of attending A&M games.

    And here's one to look for in the draft next year-he's better than 2nd overall pick Luke Joeckel or 6th overall pick Jake Matthews. He started at RG when those two were the T's, then to RT when Jake went to LT and now switches to LT for his senior year. He's a faster, more athletic version of the other two. He'll be in the top 10-count on it.

  • We always get new fans when we draft a QB (almost every year) and I have been with the attitude of lets see it.. Texas fans with Colt, Oaky ST. fans with Weeden and so forth.... Some of us are kinda jaded. Johnny is a great College player.... Hoping he does us well.

    By the way Welcome aboard.

  • New Browns fan here too.

    Can't wait for this season.

  • I fully understand any scepticism. On the Aggie boards we used to call it BAS (Battered Aggie Syndrome). Two years of electricity was the jolt we needed! He took a redshirt year to get the feel of what was required playing a pro style offense under Mike Sherman. So he's had that exposure. Hopefully your coaches will find a way to blend what he brings to the table, an escape artist who can throw strikes at any angle, running any direction. Build a unit around him and he will not disappoint. Ced O already understands how to extend the blocking as Johnny extends plays, so I hope you guys get him with one of your 2 first rounders next year.

    I'm glad to be now be one of those Brown's fans who also got to watch the greatest running back ever, Jim Brown. One advantage of living a nice long life. 🙂
