Thats shocking really.
Spend a few very long years living in Lima(drove to Van Wert all the time for work, btw) and that area is a hotbed of Browns & Bengals fans...It was 85-87, when the Browns and Bengals were pretty good, and it was great to live the rivalry there...there were so many Bungle lovers....
So, the area that loves BOTH teams will see neither?....thats just stupid.
Yeah but the good news is it's not a hateful drive to Lima to pick up the game if you can't afford Sunday Ticket. It doesn't make me very happy Dayton is considered a Cinci market and the Bungles always get preference. 25 miles north, it would be a different story. WLIO in Lima can show whoever they want.

Yeah....definitely NOT an all Bengal market...always felt like the Browns had a slight edge in Lima and Wapak, where I worked...
Also got to bring a few buddies up to Cleveland for their first Browns game ever....I was excited for their excitement...though I also took em to the flats and they, basically, couldnt handle it.....one of them flat out fainted at Peabodies just because it was too much music, lights, smoke, booze and people at once.......we went home early.... sober....

Why the Rams and not the Cardinals. They have moved as much as the Rams.
Because Missouri can Blow Me.

My recollection is that outside of the small semi-circle of southwest Ohio, all the rest of Ohio was solidly Browns territory, including the Gem City.
Hell, Dayton still has an AM station that carries Browns games that l pick up when they're not on tv, so l'm thankful for that and folks in Dayton that demand it.

I have never missed an A&M game and rarely watch the NFL, but ever since Johnny came along and got drafted you are exactly right. He kind of ruined A&M football for me for a while because watching them now is so boring, even when they win. I would give up A&M ever winning a title for the Browns to win the super bowl this year. Although to be fair I didn't actually go to A&M and am only a fan of their basketball and football teams. My dad and the rest of my family did so that is why I watch the games.
Wtf? What kind of fan are you? If you are truly an Aggie fan you'd enjoy their recent surge while you can. You wouldn't root for the success of one former player (that probably got paid for autographs and broke NCAA rules) over the success of the team...

I have agonized over their loses and celebrated their wins as much as you all with your respective teams. Even this year it killed me when they lost to Ole Miss and I went crazy when they beat Arkansas. There have been a lot of good quarterbacks at A&M, including Tannahill the year before Johnny. But Johnny was really that special. It got to the point where I was upset at a good kick return by A&M because it meant Johnny would get less yards.
And I don't get why rooting for certain players is worse than being a life long fan of a team. Rafael Nadal and Rory McIlroy are my favorite athletes and they are not on a team. I root for Lebron wherever he goes. That doesn't mean I am not a real Cavs fan now. If they lose it will kill me. Now I understand those of you who have watched the Cavs your whole lives feel differently about them than I do. But I don't care if you say I am not a real fan of the Browns or A&M. I will be watching and rooting for them same as you.

it almost takes a whole friggin day to drive through TX one side to the other. flat sandy with a little sparkle of water.
a perfect description of one of my ex's.
didn't watch the vid but just from the still shot the actor reminds of this guy:
LOL... that's at least the 10th ex descriptor you've commented on since I've been here.
ADD? Attention Deficit Divorcee?
But yeah... coming into Texas from Louisiana on I-10 is a little disheartening. The first mile marker is like "879" or something.
And actually the actor in the background was a well-known B-movie vet, Kenneth Tobey.
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0864851/?ref_=ttfc_fc_cl_t2
Among his many screen credits was the ranking officer at the Antarctic post in the original "The Thing (from Another World)" which more famously featured James Arness as "The Thing".
But yeah... coming into Texas from Louisiana on I-10 is a little disheartening. The first mile marker is like "879" or something.
And I was born and lived a few miles from that marker until I left at 12 years old. Lots of mosquitoes (I'm full of DDT from hiding in and out of the fogging machines), barefoot from April to Oct (even in school where folks were so poor they allowed us to go barefoot so they could afford 1 new pair a year or hand me downs), and humidity to beat the band. But when you are raised with no a/c you just get down to a pair of shorts in the summer and they didn't have any "No shirt, no socks ,no service" signs. And nothing smells as good as pine trees except maybe the oil refineries. LOL

huge difference from growin up in ohio right next to the railroad tracks and a mile from sadusky bay/lake erie.
a regular occurance was getting chased by long haired hippes after dousing their car with 3 inch slabs of ice. got so accustomed to the 'lake effect' winters that going out and fucking around was nothing to us kids.
now when i go out to walk my dog and temp is under 40 degrees my balls shrivel up into oblivion and the ladies don't give as much love cuz i look like i just got short changed at the marble shack.

Hey. It all just aligned in my mind and makes sense now. Johnny. the Aggies. the Manzealots.
Johnny is the Lone Star.

What the hell do you guys hate so much about Texas
Don't hate Texas- just arrogance. "America's Team" is arrogance. You want America's Team? Give me the Packers. Wasn't too keen on the Oilers when they were in the same division as the Browns either. Now? if the Texans smoke the Colts on Sunday, fine by me.
oh... so we have Texas A&M ulum on this board...... interesting... Not a college football guy myself. The mismatches are so whack. Who wants to watch a 64 zip game? Why go through the motions if a #2 ranked team plays a #75th ranked team? Seems like a lot of unnecessary work to me. No fun........ & marching bands...... What's with marching bands?
LOL, Ohio State- best damn band in the land. Hope they show the entire script Ohio New Year's Day. Really enjoyed the 59--0 beatdown of Wisconsin too.

Oh yeah, forgot about that. A great band & a beat down. I guess that would be fun now that I think about it.

Nadal and McIlroy don't compete in team sports. That statement has no bearing on the conversation.
"I root for Lebron wherever he goes. That doesn't mean I am not a real Cavs fan now." ---- That is pretty much the definition of not being a real fan. I'm guessing if Johnny was ever on another team you wouldn't be a Browns fan either. Again, that would be the definition of not being a "real" fan.
In the original post that I quoted you said that you would rather see Johnny have NFL success than the Aggies. That isn't being a "real" Aggie fan, that is being a fan of a player (and too often, those are just JF dick riders). How could you ever root for the success of some NFL team you are only following because of one guy over the team you are supposed to be a "real" fan of?
If you got upset because the team you were "real" fan of got a kick return TD and that mean Johnny didnt get stats, you dont sound like a "real" fan at all. You sound like a Johnny Football dickrider.
Also, what other good QBs has Texas A&M had?

Never thought I'd see the day that the Browns had a bandwagon.

I hate to intersperse in a reply, but I feel it's necessary here. That would be a definition of being a FANBOY, not a fan of a team. I suppose we're going to have to get used to the Fanboy invasion. Nothing wrong with it per se, but we have attracted a few FOOTBALL fans like TexasAg 1969 in the process. Was a Browns fan before JFF got here, and I'll still be a Browns fan even if they traded Manziel to the Texans or Cowboys tomorrow.
