***Official Browns @ Bengals Thursday Night Football Game Thread***

[jrb12711]

This is the make or break game for the rest of the season to me. If our beloved Brownies can manage to win this one, although it'd be an uphill historic climb it'd still be possible (especially being 2-0 in the division). If the game goes how I think it will though, it's time to start thinking about next year, looking at what we got etc to include our beloved JFF.

Speaking of conspiracy theories...

NFL Network started running TNF ads "Johnny Manziel and the Cleveland Browns take on...." before the announcement was made.

Did the league tip its influential hand? Enquiring minds want to know...

We will never know because it's actually reasonable to believe McCown is hurt based on what we saw Sunday

That's also technically not untrue by the letter of the statement. Even if he was on the bench he would be part of the team taking on the Bengals. I more see that as a "win-win" scenario.

An undefeated bengals and a sorry browns. But, it's prime time, the bengals have come off of a pretty poor showing against the steelers, the browns have 'been forced' to turn to Johnny Football - can't you just smell the browns win? You can almost feel the magic of the football gods, seeing our season going down the toilet, giving us that single moment each season that gives us hope for the next one.

Or, we get stomped. Could go either way. And either way, I think we see more Johnny. If he leads us to victory with anything resembling a decent performance (60%, TD, INT maybe), he's got 10 days to prepare as #1 for the steelers, then a bye week to really get to grips with everything. If we lose, then at 2-7 it's probably be time to hand it over to him anyway to get a decent evaluation before the draft.

You mean, it could just as easily have been 'johnson bademosi and the cleveland browns...'

I see it as a battle between Grover Dill and Scott Farkus.

I'll take Grover any day of the week.

most of all the guys i know are mary ann guys.

best friend was a courier for fedex for 20+ years and his route was up and down madison avenue where i met him. delivered to 'ginger' tina louise and said she was the nastiest Cword ever to walk the face of the earth.

[gftChris]

Zombo, that picture is spot on.

Hopefully we see Andy 'bright light frights' Dalton getting his ass kicked by Johnny 'who cares about practice' Manziel for the next 10 years.

Obviously, I am doing both of them, even with your dick.

But Ginger was my fave.

Girls Next Door are great and all, but Ginger seriously needed fucked.

[miktoxic]

YES!

btw, your boyfriend would love my dick.

HA!...."was" is the operative word there......

Obviously, I was a Mary Ann guy.....(they had to work hard to make her look common, whilst making Ginger hotter)....

Here's a real Mary Ann pic.....

And she still looks pretty good.....

[miktoxic]

i'd still bust both their dirty asses.

I agree...but the fun part of Simms is listening to him argue with himself.

Hoping for a miracle on prime time. Expecting a slaughter. We'll see how this goes.

There is a stream on the browns website. It may be delayed but it's way better than nantz and simms.

Anyone in town for the game? I live in cincy and I may be looking for bar(s) to watch the game.
