    It goes without saying. Get rid of him.

    I don't think I've been unclear on this at all.

    Doesn't it seemed like those three guys would know that?

    If none of them has a clue it's pretty fucking shocking.

    I highly doubt Shanny would leave his post if Manziel was a special talent.

    It's probably the other way around. He knows Manziel sucks donkey balls and he'll have no QB to lead his offensive schemes.

    Well I highly doubt you have much idea what Shanahan thinks or doesn't thanks. I mean as long as we're highly doubting stuff...

    I mean seriously he's going to Buffalo with his hat in his hand and their best hope is to pick up Brian Hoyer in a bidding war.

  • One Mary Kay article which is all conjecture with no named sources and we're "disfunctional" again.

    Horseshit.

    We had one of the Browns VPs join us at our last Browns Backer game against Baltimore. Real cool guy, real high on the chain. I got to talk with him one on one for a bit and he talked to the group as a whole too.

    He said the #1 thing the Browns set out to do this year was to not only change the culture, but to set the culture, because we haven't had one in 15 years.

    He said Jimmy is as passionate and smart a owner as you would want. He said Farmer is large and in charge ... speaks with authority, has the respect of everyone in the building. Coach Pettine is exactly what they want, and he is in't going anywhere.

    He said on past teams you wouldn't even hear about Gordon, Gilbert and Manziel because the team catered to the players, but it is all about the team now, and you are all in, or you are gone.

    He seemed to think Manziel was going to be fine. He basically said he was a "spoiled rich kid, and some things need to change" but that he can be very, very good. It sounded like the organization was committed to him for next year, however if the "things that need to change" involve alcohol, good luck with that.

    Overall he stressed over and over that it is a streamlined chain of command and it's not changing, Jimmy is going with these guys.

    So if Shanny is really sniffling, he'll be gone. If we re-commit to Shanny then this was just a bullshit story. I really wish we could trade MK to Pittsburgh.

    The comments may be total bullshit as far as the internal dysfunction. I do hope though that Jimmy being "large and in charge" doesn't translate to iron fisted meddlesome Nazi similar to the old Raiders owner and his buddy Jerry in Dallas. 4

    Farmer is the one he described as having the respect of everyone in the building, "large and in charge" were my words to describe his account of Farmer.

  • Again? Still! But is a good question...how do we break this dysfunctional crap that's been around since Art Model (can go to HE!!) took over? I think Art Lerner was the answer, and then he died, and his son who didn't care to own an NFL team, couldn't liquidate it quickly enough. I don't think Jimmy Haslam is the answer...but I don't know who is.

  • "Professional Experts" who got paid millions were brought in to draft these players:

    Trent Richardson

    Brandon Weeden

    Barkevious Mingo

    Justin Gilbert

    Johnny Manziel

    Johnny Manziel

    Of this list, the current GM is only responsible for Gilbert and Manziel. I think Gilbert has the raw talent to be a good corner, just needs a work ethic implant. Mingo seemed like he hustled all year, even with a hurt shoulder. Not ready to put the bust tag on him yet, either. T.Rich and Weedon are obviously no longer with us, and Manziel should join Weeden backing up Tony Romo in Dallas.

    On the Manziel thing, I think it's worse - he could have been drafted later, and Carr - IMO much better, could have been there at our second pick without a trade up. I think Carr had a decent rookie year with the always dysfunctional Raiders.

    As a long time Cowboys fan, i know what dysfunction looks like. I have seen if first hand for many years. The Browns are dysfunctional. The way they fell apart at the end of the season showed that something ugly was happening behind the scenes. Changing coaches every season is a big problem. A meddling owner is a big problem. A Head Coach that cant control his team, is a big problem. Shanny wanted out because he wanted nothing to do with the situation any long. Holy hell.

    Fuck you fucking everlasting knob slobbing motherfucker.

    This is the first year of a brand new organization, new head coach ... they are changing the culture and it takes time.

    Your fucking mancrush was part of the problem, not part of the solution, so he either changes or he is gone ... this ain't gonna be some fucking Dallas North dripping with dysfunction and drama, it's going to be run the right way. We didn't have the talent to finish the mission this year. That will change.

    Go put your Romo jersey on and jack off to Johnny you fucking useless cock gobbler.

  • Honest opinion is okay, but how about an opinion that isn't assholish?

    Seriously.

  • @everlastingxxx said:

    Why do you keep responding to my posts if you are going to respond like a child? I am giving my honest opinion based on my own experiences. You dont agree, thats fine, but no reason to hurl insults because you cant control your anger issues. Bully me, embarrass me, whatever you feel you need to do to feel better about yourself, but i am going to give my honest opinion regardless.

    Well, your opinion sucks. Just like your dad.

    This forum is for Browns fans, why are you even offering an opinion?

    Oh that's right, because you have an agenda. You can say "Cleveland messed up Johnny". Well, fuck you, we are doing this right this time, and if he's not on board, so be it. So go fuck off and take your Johnny love with you.

    I agree.

    Ive closely analyzed the situation and tried to apply a balanced objective view.....and have concluded Globbersnobber is a whiny bitter bitch who's broken hearted by her manlove for Johnny Fucking Failure and now needs to lash out.

    These manzeilots are the worst much of baby bitches Ive ever seen.....go love your cow / boys already

  • @everlastingxxx said:

    It is an opinion and its open to being debated but the insults are against forum rules. You continue to cross the line with your abuse of power and lack of self control. You are also a hypocrite.

    I wasn't aware we had rules. Someone should probably point them out to me.

    So I can delete them and replace them with:

    1. Fans from other teams have no rights.

    2. Don't be a complete asshat.

    I am a Browns fan. I have followed them all season.

    Well, I follow the weather, doesn't make me a fan.

    We are a passionate bunch. You are a Cowboy fan. And a Manziel groupie

    Can you just leave me alone?

    If there is actually something wrong with you ... special needs, etc. ... let me know, and I will leave you alone and send you a nice apology.

    If you are just a douchey Cowboy fan, like you appear to be, then I will continue to fuck with you.

    This is how this ends: 1. You quit being a douche 2. I get rid of you because it's a distraction to our discussions.

    Your choice.

  • @everlastingxxx said:

    I private messaged a number of moderators. Many of them do not agree with how you abuse your power and think you are acting childish and immature.

    Ya, I'm OK with that.

    Dude, it's just a message board. Either fit in, or leave.

    If you are going to criticize the organization from the outside prepare to keep getting hit in the face.

    If a Browns fan tells me were dysfunctional, I'm going to engage him in a conversation. If a Cowboys fan tells me we're dysfunctional I am going to childishly and immaturely shit down his neck.

    then, "wham". I regretted slipping.

  • @everlastingxxx said:

    Why not just ask why i feel the way i do instead of insulting me? What does insulting me do? You are not going to bully or intimidate me. Sorry, just doesnt work on me. Just talk about the issue at hand as an adult and we can have a good conversation.

    That said, I think i have a better perspective. Following the Cowboys and Browns all season allowed me to compare each team and how its run. I think its been a real eye-opener for me. I am saying that the Cowboys have been dysfunctional for years. I know what it looks like. I lived it for years. I know what it is.

    I don't want to have a conversation with you. I want to tell you what a dumb fucker you are.
