    It'd be part of camp, not the whole camp I think.

      I think it would be cool for the Browns to have TC there. You know, potentially exposing the nations best recruits to the Browns org might not be a bad thing either. Just sayin.

          Fuck Columbus. Its the Cleveland Browns. Haslam is an asshole.

            Who cares it's training camp

            Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

              exactly, it's TC. Nobody cares. I'm serious i'll bet anything it's about getting a better relationship with the OSU program. WOuldn't hurt either. I mean the number one player on the team tweeted a few weeks ago that Cleveland was a dirthole of a city. Couldn't hurt to have a good relationship with the program WHo knows maybe one day Urb decides to jump to the NFL and guess who would be a good landing spot for him

                  Even though it would make it a lot shorter drive for me to hit training camp- I say HELL NO to the idea. Berea has literally kissed the Browns collective asses for years.

                  Maybe a day or two, like the Bengals move their TC around, but not all three weeks.

                    It's not like the Browns headquarters are going to move to Columbus. It's training camp. It's three weeks out of the year. I literally could not care less. And it's Columbus. Not Erie, Pennsylvania or some other shite place. Go Bucks.

                      Rationale? I think Haslam fears the Bungles are taking over Columbus. Oh, it's a great deal if you're a Bucks fan living in Columbus. The hardcore NE Ohio Cleveland season ticket holders that like to attend training camp are going to be seriously POed.

                      You think established vets that have homes in Cleveland (like Joe Thomas) would be happy spending those three weeks in Columbus? I sure wouldn't.

                            As a Berea resident, it sucks. Our State House Rep, Mike Dovilla is already working on trying to get this stopped, but I doubt it gets any traction. The City of Berea (who also happens to be my employer) just worked a new deal out with the Browns, keeping them here until 2028. It was a so-called "win-win" for both sides.

                            So a taxpayer funded practice facility in Columbus? A low-scale Kroenke move for sure. Hey Jimmy- take the $$ that the City of Berea saved you on renovations from your 76 Lou Groza home and build it yourself.

                            I think it's more about trying to regain a state-wise fan base than anything else. Training camp may spark some interest, but ultimately it's wins that will woo fans back in.

                              This is about fans. The majority of Columbus is split equally between three fan bases, Pittsburgh, Cinci, and Cleveland. The Browns are simply trying to plant their flag. Being a Columbus resident it would be awesome.

                                Not crazy about this idea....at all......and definitely don't want to pay for it....

                                I agree with you Bob.....if the Browns want to win over the fans of Ohio, the only way to do it is to beat the Stools and Bungles...

                                  I think the "Who cares" part of it is that they want the taxpayers to pay for it.

                                  NFL teams make a gross amount of money and usually have taxpayer paid facilities to conduct their businesses in.

                                  I get no taxpayer support for my business.....why should they get any more. Especially when the motivation is to get more money from a market they are in contention with another team for.

                                  You want to win over the Columbus Market? Win a Fucking Super Bowl!!!

                                    Teams get 243 million from revenue sharing each year...before a game is even played. Build your own damn training center.
