New Browns Fans Introduce Yourselves
-
Born and raised in SC.
Where do you live now?
-
Charlotte, NC.
Well....I can't argue Charlotte. It is nicer than anywhere I've been in SC. Much higher taxes and way more Liberal though. I'll definitely be at the Panthers game this year!

Charlotte is okay in that it has professional sports.
I was raised on the beach, though so it won't be long until I'm back in Myrtle Beach or Charleston.

The national media is nothing more than a circus that would do anything they can to disrupt the browns training camps and turn the whole off season into a farce. The browns are doing the right thing by telling them to hit the bricks.
No, we think that the National Media are idiots and have no clue how a coaching staff or front office need to handle a football team....and for the most part I think we are right. They are just whining because they didn't get full access. Too bad.
Right, right. Like I said, I'm well aware of the national media when it comes to the local team. My post wasn't about whether or not the national media is allowed to cover Manziel.
I was hoping to find out the local perception of how your owner and front office are handling Manziel.
From the outside it looks pretty shoddy.
(a) can't keep things in-house
(
over reacting to Manziel 'celebrity' by telling him to 'act like a back-up' and '...this isn't hollywood' etc
seem to be going out of their way to show that Manziel is 'substantially behind' HoyerIt seems like the front office is creating the spotlight they are trying to quell.
It seems as if Haslam and Farmer are media noobs that need to stfu.
Just wondering what the local view is on Manziel's handling by the front office.

Your is the closest to a reply that I've received.
But still don't know a thing about how Browns fans feel about how their 1st round QB is being handled by their current regime.
This Browns fan feels the coaching staff and FO are handling Manziel Mania just fine, and I don't give a rats ass that ESPN is all butt-hurt they can't turn Cleveland into the circus that Washington did with RGIII.

Quit being a smart ass Ghoulardi. Been here a LOT longer then you. I still think the only reason you ever came here is because you are a McCoy fag.
There's a seniority system? Turn Blue!
Sorry, the smartass is too deeply engrained to do anything about... especially when someone tees one up for me.
But whatever McCoy crush I had is long gone. So I can offer you that.

well the manziel 'story' is not the lead anymore on espn or nfl network so they must be doing something right.

I was at Parris Island for awhile and remember the heat and the Sand Fleas.
The only places worth going in SC are on the coast.
Upstate is garbage. It's hot, humid and miserable in the summer and there's very little breeze. Columbia is dirty, there's nothing ever going on, and it seemingly takes four hours to drive to anywhere from Columbia.
Clemson, however, is by far the worst. It's a cow pasture with a school plopped on it.

NC coast is much better than SC coast and that's coming from a South Carolinian.
I grew up in upstate SC, of course went to school in Columbia and prefer either over Charleston - by a mile. Whatever floats your boat, though.
As for Clemson, I don't know where to began.
DieHard - spent a nice relaxing summer at Parris Island, myself. When were you there?

Long suffering Oilers, Texans, A&M fan here..... I feel your pain.
First off - I am female! I grew up watching A&M and football with my Dad so I am a diehard football fan and it really pisses the guys off at work when I beat them in the weekly football pot where you have to pick winners and scores every week LOL. Sorry to see the annual A&M-tu game die - Thansgiving was always about this game first and turkey second.....
I follow the draft every year (not just A&M) and go to the Texans training camp every summer........
I watched every game Maziel played and he honestly was one of the most exciting football player I have ever had the pleasure of watching (except for Earl Campbell). Will it translate to the NFL? No clue. I hope so, but i also know it may not.
Watching his off-balance throws across his body was amazing until I found out he used to be a short stop, then it made perfect sense.
I just hope he can stay healthy in the NFL. I hope he makes it and wins a lot of games for the Browns, once he gets his chance to start. He had to earn his spot at A&M the first year he played and he will have to beat out the other QB's in Cleveland also, but I think he will. Maybe not this year, or maybe 3/4 of the way through the year or next year - but he is a fierce competitor so I have no doubt he will if he doesn't get hurt.

Local view varies with the individual's temperature due to JM fever....
But, yes, there are noobs that need to stfu.

Okay, I can't speak for all Browns fans, just me. I'm mostly fine with the way he is being handled, though I think they could ease up on the rhetoric a tad. There is nothing wrong with putting a rookie in as your third stringer to start with and nothing wrong with telling him he has to earn being Johnny Football at the NFL level. Saying he needs to think like a backup and that if JM gets on the field it means another QB got hurt could be interpreted in a negative way so maybe that was questionable. If it were any other QB I'd be a little more worried but I think JM will just thrive off it. He'll put on a professional demeanor and say all the right things but deep inside it'll just make his fire burn hotter. I don't expect it will ultimately diminish his performance and it might enhance it.Your is the closest to a reply that I've received.

36 year Browns fan here, living in Denver. Former Marine on total disability that sits around house waiting for Browns football as my only passion outside God and my family. Got plenty of opinions to share so I will probably be fairly active on here. Havent been able to beat the feeling of impending doom before each season, though I get caught up in the pre-season excitement. Think we have finally gotten some people in charge that will bring us back to respectability, but I'm thinkin it will be next year before we really begin to be a factor. Excited to watch the new scheme and growth of the rookies this year, next year fillin the 2 weakest links with 1st rounders again. Nice to be able to wear Browns gear again without being laughed at, so thank you management for draftin completely out of character for what we have been used too. I'm on the Hoyer wagon this year, let Johnny sit and learn. Wifes a Squeelers fan- but I love her anyway 363/365. The other 2 days she gets some serious trash talking and usually wakes up to my Chomps pillow pet peeing on her Squeelers blanket! WOOOOOOF!

Browns Board... time to reopen the co-ed facilities.
Welcome aboard, AF... nice first post.
If it were any other QB I'd be a little more worried but I think JM will just thrive off it.
If it were any other QB, none of what has been said would have been said.

Hi all. Longtime Browns fan, new to the board. New to chat rooms in general. My Browns fandom goes back to the late 80s. Kosar, Michael Dean, Mighty Minnie, and in my mind the best trio of wideouts the Browns ever had in Slaughter, Langhorne, and Brennan.
Gotta admit l'm particularly fired up this year, and it's not based on who they got in the draft. Even in free agency, they went out and got the type of players they wanted, and put their money where their mouth was. From what l've read, seems like a lot of guaranteed money going out.
I think l like this Ray Farmer cat. The way the draft went down, l can't help but grin about it.
I think (ok, hope) that one of these unknown wideouts the Browns got is gonna step up in a significant way. Any thoughts on who that might be? Have any of you seen them in college, or have anything to say about any of them other than what l've read?
Seems Anthony Armstrong has some NFL experience. Sounds like Willie Snead had a solid college career. From what l've read not the fastest or tallest guy, but must have good hands with all those receiving yards. Maybe like a solid possession receiver, like Kevin Johnson? Also intrigued by the dude they got from the Packers practice squad last year, Charles Johnson. Sounds like he was a burner before the ACL injury. Is he healthy now? I kinda hoped there would be an article l could read on their performance in the OTAs, especially with the focus on that position, but l haven't seen one.
-
I am curious about Charles Johnson also. We have quite a bit of unproven talent on the Squad who are WR's.
