  • I don't get HBO, so my only question is would having this during camp help or hurt? I suppose that neither would be a viable option as well.

    You know they want to follow Manziel, so I see it as hurting more than anything else. I'd rather have our guys 100% focused on the coaches and the task at hand and not watching some film crew sticking cameras in their face.

    Oh probably, but that's not what the show is about.

  • I am surprised the NFL can force a team to do the show but I guess the owners voted on it. If the Browns volunteer to do it that is OK but if they are forced into it then I hate to see it happen. My concern is like some of the above comments that it will be a distraction to the team and too much attention focused on JM.

    The good that might come out of the Browns doing the show though is Pettine is a great coach and runs the club well and it would be good to showcase this to a big audience.

  • Well look how well it worked out for Atlanta last year!

    Oh wait. Don't look. 🥷

  • Surprise? The NFL Forces teams players coaches owners everybody to do public relations stuff.

    And they should if there is any kind of profit sharing at all. It's a business and a show. If you want to keep a low profile and don't like the spotlight sell the team and by yourself a vacuum cleaner manufacturing plant.

    If I had the money to buy a vacuum cleaning mfg plant I would be a happy Browns fan (and I wouldn't move it to China either). 😁

  • I look at the show as a major distraction.

    No thanks, but we'll see what happens.

  • How did the Bengals do the season after they had the cameras in?

  • No opinion. I have never seen the show.

    I would get HBO if the Browns were on it

    Until then I will NEVER EVER pay for that crap

    This makes almost no sense. HBO has some of the best shows on TV, barring none.

    I'm actually agreeing with the Vag on this. HBO has some really great programming.

    I don't really care what the show is about. I have only seen clips here and there.

    Seems to me the show can be about whatever they want it to be about. I am sure that if they come to town, Johnny will become a central focus.

    Do yourself a favor, and check out a season, any season. It's one of my favorite shows,

    As for it "hurting" the Browns, man, I hope the team I love is tougher than that............. If not, then they don't deserve it.

  • A chance to show the world the perception outside of Berea is wrong, I think they're going to jump at the chance.

  • Bad idea. Stay under the radar. The Browns don't need anymore distractions!

    Why did you post in this thread then?

    Unless a team volunteers, the NFL will decide who will be on the show, and let's face it, the Browns and everything that encompasses them, are way too intriguing for the NFL to pass up.

  • This is awesome for me as a fan

    Not great for the Browns development

    Who would have thought this comment would ever make sense at some point, lol

    Ditto. Got a feeling the Browns are going to get drafted.

    Not worth the extra $$ IMHO. To each their own. Crap, my Directv bill is already on the high side of $100, (way more than that when I pay the six month extortion fee for Sunday Ticket) and the only "premium" I normally have is the $12 Fox Sports package. If I occasionally want to watch a movie, PPV is a cheaper option in my case.

    Personally I'd like to see us hold off at least one more year. Very pivotal year for this organization and what it is trying to instill culturally. Shining a bright light on that will do absolutely no good.

    Hopefully someone steps up and volunteers...

    Their original programming had better stay great since the movies they've been landing lately suck royally...

  • last year I was deadest against it but honestly, who gives a fuck now? It can't possibly make things worse can it? If anything it'll help but most likely just make everyone say yeah that's about what we thought.
