    Haha....I always laugh when folks act like hot, dusty, sweaty, nasty places are better because there isnt snow or cold.....

    I'll take my winter....to be rewarded with glorious springs....perfectly tolerable(and GREEN) summers......beautiful, cool falls......all topped by a blanket of white for christmas.....

    My bro lives in Tucson, the ugliest and most hostile environment Ive ever been in.....I wouldn't last a week there.....

    And I visit Texas & Oklahoma about 5-6 times a year and wouldn't trade for a day.....or an hour....

    Well, to be honest, that has been my attitude too......but now that I am the age I am dealing with ice where you have to walk...and snow is becoming a problem. Plus I am starting to get some of those little tweeking pains from the cold...so I could see leaving the cold weather. But where would be the best place to go? I hate humid sweltering heat.....like Fla/Louisiana/ parts of Texas. San Diego and other parts of California might be great weather wise....but the traffic/cost of living etc. seem intolerable. Arizona is a possibility....but not Tuscon or Phoenix.....north toward Prescott or Sedona might be good. Flagstaff is too far north as they get a ton of snow there.

    My vote is for Sedona/Prescott. I visited there five years back and loved it. Plan to return and seriously considering retiring there someyear.

    Browns Board HOF worthy summary there Z...

    Maybe we need a "history" section?

    Indeed. I'm copying and saving that summary for my own use when someone asks me about Browns woes and the QB carousel! (credit to Z)

    One big difference is the sports media and portions of the country outside of Ohio are tuning in to see what Johnny does. The previous QB no one cared except Browns fans and a few college fanboy followers. Nothing to this degree though.

    Anybody notice who the analyst is for Derek Anderson's start in Carolina this week? That's right ... Brady Quinn

  • Bullshit. We kicked the Mexicans ass or we would still be part of Mexico. Kicked the Comanches ass too. AND kicked a bunch of outlaws ass to boot. Commit a capital crime in Texas and you get the death penalty.

  • We may have a chihuahua leading the Dawg Pound but not a midget. Marvin Lewis,Jeremy Hill and Greg Little are mental midgets.

    GO JOHNNY "CHIHUAHUA" MANZIEL AND GO BROWNS !

  • I'd say most of us hate the Cowboys. In order of hatred:

    Steelers Ravens Bengals and Cowboys.

    Others I generally root against but don't hate too badly Miami Dolphins Denver Broncos, Atlanta Falcons, Philadelphia Eagles, Oakland Raiders, New Orleans Saints. Some I just kind of don't like Seattle Seahawks, Jacksonville Jaguars, Washington Redskins, Carolina Panthers, Houston dumbass Texans, Arizona Cardinals,......

    The rest I either don't mind and root for if it doesn't affect the Browns or just don't care.

    Well, BB had 5 seasons here and he had a losing record in 4 out of 5. In his first year in NE without Brady starting he went 5-11.

    So, the only evidence we have is that without Tom Brady at QB.... he has been a loser in 5 out of 6 years.

    But my suspicion is that BB will retire as the HC of the NEP when Brady calls it quits.....and then you will have a guy born in the same hospital as me for your HC.

    Agreed. However you have to take into account that he didn't quite run the Browns like he runs the Patriots. The Pats are the BB show. He is GM and HC and he gets the players HE wants, and does what HE wants with them. His first year here, he didn't have as much of a chance to craft the team and he pretty much got what was handed to him, and look at the pick that he DID make in the draft. He picked arguably one of the All-Time greatest QB's in the game of football when no other team even gave him a look. But there are many other things that make him a great coach, I think too many people emphasize the Brady thing. It will be very interesting indeed to see what happens when the Brady days are over.

    Seriously? Why don't you just release him right now and rely on your backup QB....and then let's see how good BB would come out.

    One of the greatest coaches in history...Paul Brown had his troubles after Otto Graham retired. Almost all dynasties are great coach/QB combinations.

    The only guy to really win big with multiple QBs was Joe Gibbs.

    Wow! I didn't even know he had gotten a gig with Fox. That is fairly hilarious, ironic, pathetic.....and a lot of other adjectives.

    I wonder if Horseballs ever said to him "Oh yeah, I'll still be starting in this league, and you'll be up in the booth calling my games!"

  • ooOOhhh.....a hate list!!!.....I LOVE hate lists.....here's my top 10

    1. I hate our whole division......... They all suck rocks and are equally hateable.
    2. Dallas Cowboys.......... They simply make me sick. Always have. Always will. HATE them.
    3. Denver Broncos..........no explanation necessary
    4. New England Patriots..........just a fucking bunch of Red Sox fans in disguise
    5. Seattle Seahawks.........because I've always hated their uniforms. They dont look like ballers. The new neon shit is gay.
    6. Carolina Panther....i hate new teams. They never feel like they belong. Tampa & Seattle still feel new to me.
    7. Jacksonville Jaguars....See above. PLUS, I used to confuse them with the Panthers. 2 new teams, both cats, both suck.

    And my 10 favorites:

    1. DA BROWNS......of course
    2. Minn. Vikings.....my favorite as a front running 8 year old...foreman, tarkenton, marshall, rashad...still love that team!
    3. DA Bears!.........always seemed like a gritty team and just my flavor
    4. Green Bay Packers.......see above..Plus, I love cheese!
    5. Detroit Lions.....that fucking barge is everything....we own you detroit!(well, not really....)
    6. LA Raiders....always liked the team and image. Not so much now. They'll be back.
    7. Houston Oilers.....maybe because I miss them? If they were still here, Id put em on the hate list
    8. ........................hmmm, it appears I only like 7 teams

    The rest are ....eh

  • Awesome history lesson Zombo. Thanks. I sometimes forget, or intentionally block out, the depths of how laughable the worst of the awful has been since '99.

    Make it required reading for any newb, Browns fan or not, to gain posting rights here.

    How dare you slander my beloved Earl Campbell and Bum's Oilers. You'll smoke a turd in Hell if you keep that up.

    Good ole Bum....always bitchin about the nail we gave him to hang his hat....I think it was rusty 😉

    And..hey, look again, no slander.....they made my favorites list....

  • My Hate List:

    1. Steelers

    2. Ravens

    3. Bungles

    4. Cowboys

    5. Dolphins (from living down here)

    6. Patriots (the fans)

    7. Broncos (the history)

    8. Texas (fuck Texas and fuck expansion teams)

    That's about all I hate, but we need two more, so I will add:

    9. Chiefs (because of bad experience with some of their fat obnoxious fans once)

    10. Penguins (because they are all Steeler fans)

    OK, they are really a hockey team, so 10. Rams, (because they keep moving and dicking over people)
