LOL! Ah, but one of my favorite trips was on the metro in Barcelona sitting next to a beautiful dark haired beauty using my best Spanish while passing it off as very poor and underutilized. Had her laughing by the end of the ride and telling me how my Spanish was "muy bonito". I explained that it wasn't Spanish like her Castillian, it was "Venezolano". That's kind of like saying you don't speak the King's English, just Texanese or Bronxian. She laughed all the way off at her stop.
:lol: As that other song goes, "Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end"

Wow. Gonna be another long year. Stay strong Haslam, and fans especially.
-
Looking at the schedule again, think I can see us scrounging up 6-7 wins. Prepare yourselves. See you in 2018.
-
Nfl.com puts us on their toughest schedule listing. 3 QB's & 50 players to go yet
I thought it was premature before the draft, but the guys at NFL Network only see a couple of wins for the Browns. Nate Burleson says the X-factor in the win equation will be Josh Gordon. Of courrse they also played the "what if" game with the Browns taking O.B.,Jr (went #12 to Giants) @#8 in 2014 instead of Justin Gilbert. They admitted they were playing "beat up the Browns" again.

I might end up going to the Texans game ...
I should be at Browns vs Chargers.....
As I said, I was thinking about one or both of these games. If a crew is to get together, I may be in for one. Let us know is anyone is formulating any plans.

Are you planning on a reciprocal London trip?
Me? No...a bit too far for me and the timing doesn't really work that well. I know some of the other guys are planning on the trip.

Yea, I need to talk to them. Like I said, I would love to, but it would not be politically correct for me to go sans spouse. Not that she would want to deprive me of going, just that she would be pissed about me going without her since she has to stay and work. (school employee) Houston/SoCal still far more viable.

Well, you just do your two weeks in Spain, then spend 4-5 more days in London for the Browns game on the 29th.

Ah, see how Ghoolie wisdom eventually comes to you all. i have been saying that most here, are sheep. I also use words like jackoff, dickhead, urethra yodelers, but...you get it.
Why is this even a thread? Who gives a flying fuck when the schedules are released? Oh my God, this is earth shattering......... LOOK LOOOK LOOK YOU MOTHERFUCKERS........................... The Browns are going to play against other teams. WOW this is important shit.
Some of us have potential designs on attending a road game or two, and travel plans have to be made if that is to happen. That is why it is important, at least for me. I mean, don't you get that? We also have potential conflicts in our schedules, some need to secure vacation time from work (not me so much as I am self-employed, but others do) so we need to know those dates to plan around them.
And, if a group of us is going and plan to meet up, then we have to coordinate with each other.

The wife is an energetic Vikings fan so we're seriously considering the trip to London.
Week 8: Oct. 29 - Minnesota Vikings (London) - 9:30 a.m./NFL Network[/size]
Checking airfares this AM... not what they were 15 years ago, but very doable. Even less if I want to make a day of travel... fly Turkish Airlines... and connect in Istanbul. What could go wrong?
Planning to attend the game @ Houston (Bro-in-law is season ticket holder) then following Mon or Tues looking at :
- Roundtrip Houston to London, and
- open jaws Houston-Paris/London-Houston.
Puts the London game right at the end of the trip. A lot of logistics left to sort out, but working on it...
What's the ticket situation for the game? Are there block sales? Do you have a Paypal account?
PUB CRAWL... 2017!!!
I might end up going to the Texans game...
See you there... where there TBD...

:lol: As that other song goes, "Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end" Have yet to do Spain... Next London game? Side trip to Espania? I imagine we could even find a racketball court. You know CPR... don't you?

In case you are all wondering why I am all over this thread, it is because it may be the first time that I can combine my two main "hobbies" into a single venture. Travel, and Browns football. Now, as some of you may know, I am not really a big fan of the in stadium game experience. I may go to one game a year. I prefer watching the games on TV. But, if I can combine my wanderlust with a Browns game, I think it is worth the effort.
So, FYI, I started a tradition 20 years ago of doing a fall (and a few at other times) "guys" trip. I often would book them over the Columbus Day Holiday as at one time my part time government job allowed me off on the Monday Columbus Day Holiday. And so began:
The Gipper's Columbus Day "Discover America" Trips.
Here is a list of all such "Discover America" trips that I have taken:
1997: New Mexico, Santa Fe, Taos, Angel Fire
1998: The Dakotas, Badlands, Black Hills, Theo. Roosevelt NP
1999: Nevada, Lake Tahoe, Sacramento, Yosemite
2000: Canadian Rockies: Calgary, Banff, Glacier NP
2001: Arizona: Tuscon, Yuma, Tombstone
2002: Colorado: Breckenridge, Aspen, Black Canyon, Rocky Mountain NP
2003: California: Death Valley, Yosemite, Sequoia/Kings Canyon, Joshua Tree
2004: Florida Panhandle, Panama City, Mobile, Montgomery
2005: Utah southern: Bryce Canyon, Zion, Capitol Reef, Great Basin, North Rim of Grand Canyon
2007. Spring break: Arkansas, Hot Springs, Little Rock, Shreveport
2008: Washington state: Vancouver, Victoria, Olympic, North Cascades, Mt. Rainier
2009: The Cayman Islands
2010: Puerto Vallarta, Mexico
2011: Arizona: Scottsdale, Sedona, Prescott, Apache Trail
2012: Hawaii, The Big Island, Molokai
2013: Pennsylvania/New Jersey: Delaware Water Gap, Poconos/Catskills
2014A: Georgia northern, Atlanta, SW North Carolina, NW South Carolina
2014B: Montana, Yellowstone, Butte, Missoula, Anaconda, Billings
2015A: Utah, Park City, Salt Lake City, Flaming Gorge, Ogden
2015B: Texas, San Antonio, Midland, Odessa, Lubbock, Amarillo, Abilene
2016A: Spring: Alabama, Florida Tallahassee, Georgia
2016B: Idaho, Boise, Craters of the Moon, Twin Falls, Eastern Oregon
And I still have a "Bucket List" of about 15 additional itineraries that I have in mind for these trips, among them Southern Cal, and Louisiana Bayou country, which is fairly adjacent to Houston (New Orleans/Lafayette/Lake Charles). Either of these could be combined with a Browns away game tailgate if a group is to get together.

Per my research there apparently can be tickets (end zone seats) to the Chargers game purchased on this site:
Price range: $115 -125

I hope you plan on a book and book tour.
lol... Two things I know about me and gambling... I love it too much and I am bad at it.
Did you not see my finish in Pro Pick'em last season?
Then again... I did win College Pick'em... and I am overdue for a Pro hot streak...
So maybe a quid on a 5-team parley... or better yet 6... hmmmm...

Oh that book! I was thinking about The Gipper's long overdue travel guide and visits to the mall bookstores.
GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND! -
Unfortunately Gip we have round trip non-refundable tickets to Madrid and back so London is out as an option. We had to get all the reservations in for the paradores well in advance along with the flights because even when we did them the paradores were almost full in more than a couple of locations. Looking forward to the entire trip that will include going to one of the oldest still operating ancient Roman aqueducts.
