Ive lost count of all the predictions that came to fruition.
He gets about 3 out of 10 right...and brags interminably about it. Or else he says "I told you so" when it ain't really so. Or else he claims being right about some prediction that he never made at the time. E.g....you were not here for Savage and Lombardi or Crennel of Mangini....so you don't know what he predicted....other than what he told you. He takes ex post facto credit.

Read what I wrote AGAIN. I said making predictions doesn't equate to knowing football. Not the ins and outs of football. Not schemes and when and why you run something. Coached for a LONG time and I dont know A LOT.
But predicting something doesn't mean knowledge of it, just that you can predict.
Like I said, not a shot at him, but I am sorry I take offense to someone saying because someone can make predictions that they know FOOTBALL. I dont know him, maybe he does know a lot, but nothing that he has posted on here shows that kind of knowledge.
And I don't post much, dont even read a whole lot, but SOME of the things I have seen him "predict" someone without much knowledge of football or the Browns could do.
I wish everyone did have a good knowledge of this great game. I even asked before when he was on one of these rants about knowing more than everyone to just come up with 1 simple play design and show how and why it would work, didn't hear a word. Not saying he couldn't do it, bit for someone that wants to boast about being the smartest, I would have thought he would want to prove it.
Anyway, it doesn't really matter. God bless

Gunz.............. buddy, you are really far, far off base in your comments about me. I have said many times that I am in awe of how well educated many posters here are when it comes to the X's and O's of football. AMong others, my pretend nemesis Flugel, my long time buddy Hoorta, and others have taught me much about this part of football.
However, what YOU do not understand is that the X's and O's are not what wins championships, makes the HOF and projects an ordinary man into greatness.
The reason so very many of my predictions prove out, is because my expertise is not the "game" of football, but instead in being able to read character, passion, discipline, desire, commitment and sincerity. THESE....not analytics, mechanics, percentages, blah blah blah.........are what separates great men from average men.
Do you know who Clive Davis is? He is the most prolific record executive of all time, discovering and promoting more platinum artists than anyone. He plays no instrument, does not sing, read music, or have any knowledge of recording, producing or songwriting. He knows nothing of the X's and O's of the music industry. Yet HIS predictions about who will make it, and who will not, are more accurate than anyone in the history of music.
X's and O's? Lowest cowpoop on the totem pole when it comes to being successful. Everyone has the same X's and O's. There is no edge to be gained in the X's and O's.
I am in the process of launching a new water purification technology that investors believe will wind up selling in the area of 10 figures. God willing it will, and I can help everyone and everything I care about in this world. WIll it come to be? I don't know, but, my team is not too good at X's and O's. Oh, we are great at the science part of it, but, my web guy is a dyslexic homosexual Millennial who I found working in a bowling alley; my marketing guru is a young woman with no big corporation experience. Yet, here we are, no long resume of X's and O's, yet were are getting a swing at the show.
What people say, do, and act, have far more to do about what kind of player they are, than their analytics and mechanics.
Just don't talk so much, watch me, listen, mark my words, and you will learn somethings nobody else obviously have exposed you to.
The Cleveland Browns have the hardest hit players in the NFL -
One of the goofy things that show you how off base some attackers of Boo are, this guy has spent a ton of time giving me a hard time, insulting me, and basicaly endearing himself to me as a guy who can think for himself, and who is wise enough to read between lines, AND judge things not on whether or not he likes the aurthor, but by if the message is good.
Boo is one enlightened guy.

I think you missed the point of what I am saying. Obviously coaching is only a part, and the things you just mentioned are extremely important.
What I was saying is that making predictions about a subject doesn't mean you know the subject. It doesn't mean you don't either, but that isn't telling of the knowledge. Professional gamblers use statistics and probabilities to make their picks. It doesn't mean they know the game.
It really wasn't a shot at you. You seem like a nice guy except when you go on these profanity filled tirades, which I dont like, but to each their own.
I am not saying you don't know FOOTBALL, I dont know you to make that assumption. But what you see and read from a message board can't give you the answer to that.
I hope your water project does very well.
God bless

How does someone that makes predictions about the NFL that come true not know about the gane?
Makes no sense.
Sounds like a financial planner who flips a coin and picks blue chip stocks that is a dishwasher by night and knows nothing about finance or banking.
This game is a hell of a lot more than drawing up plays in the dirt. Management is just as important placing the right people in place in the front office and on the sideline. We don't even need to discuss the draft and free agency. Most clubs separate the personell aspect of the sport from the coaching side of the business.
Look Chief, I get that it's irritating like sand in the vagina when Ghoolie is proven right time and time again. I'm simply pointing out the truth on here is all.
My daughter, who did nothing but read books when I took her to games, out-picked all the guys in an NFL playoffs pool where she worked about 4 years straight. She knows absolutely nothing about football despite my very best efforts. The key to picking all those games right for so long? Which uniforms she liked best in each match-up. So yes you can do it without knowing much about the finer intricacies of play.

Ive read this board longer than you think. You were Atty at AOL. Thats how long Ive been around and definitely recall when Crennel was here. Crispy Creme is not my nickname. Its Ghoolies. So was Phil Sewage.
He did not tell me anything. Never met him. PMed once or twice not even about the Browns or football.. Thats it. I read and then observe what actually happens and subsequently form my own opinion.
You must have been a lurker. My only question is.....are you at any time going to get any better at this, since you have been at it such a long time?

I DONT HAVE AN ISSUE WITH GHOOLIE AND HIS PREDICTIONS. THERE IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE IN PREDICTIONS AND KNOWING THE SPORT AND IT'S CONCEPTS.
Alright genius, how in the world can people all over the country have these March Madness pools at work and a lot of times it's someone who hasn't watched a single second of the game and they win? Or better yet, a specific example. I usually just do a for fun pool with family. I have a nephew who spends his whole time watching sports or playing. He can tell you about every team, record, who they played, etc. And I have a niece who doesn't even like basketball. Guess who beat who by a WIDE MARGIN.
I have said multiple times now I have nothing against Ghoolie. But you are WRONG in what you are saying and you can't admit it.

Never met Ghoolie but have been reading him for 15+ years.

Ask Hoorta if Ghoolie has this account. The IP should be in Kansas or Missouri. I live in the KC area and have for 21 years.
For the last time, Ghoolie and Boo are NOT the same person. Tom used the multiple accounts thing, way back, but hasn't in a very long time. I've been the official "Ghost Buster" on forums going all the way back to the old AOL board circa 1995, and in all humility I've gotten pretty good at it. Regardless of screen name, you can tell a person's writing style after they've been posting awhile. (Maybe not if they're a professional writer fooling around) You could take the name off the post and I could tell you that's Gip, or Tour and about 20 of the other regulars here.

Sorry Gip, and I hate to admit it, Ghoolie is right 8-9 times out of 10. He called Hue a bum before he ever coached a regular season game. Care to argue at this point he's not? Krispy Kreme Crenell ? Great DC, not so great HC.
We're so hung up hopeing he's wrong we're anxiously waiting for Paxton Lynch to bust, just so we can say he got that one wrong.

Open question to you and boo and whomever...
Other than Lynch has Phoolie made other positive predictions? As in "this (player/coach/GM) is going to make it big?" Have any panned out? Any Browns in that mix?
Predicting doom and gloom for the Browns V2.0 and then gloating, which is basically all I remember him doing for as long as I read him before I "ignored" him, hasn't exactly been Kreskin level sh!t.
And for the record... I don't hope anything when it comes to Lynch; I simply don't see any chance for him as a pro.

Well, in answer to your question- not anything I can specifically remember... other than when asked who do YOU want as a Coach\GM\ Player- just the characteristics he's looking for- without naming names. He was on the Trubisky Train, but then so were me and Gipper.
And I have pointed out to Ghoolie- predicting suckage in GMs, Coaches, and Players over the last 20 years or so of Browns failure has been about as difficult as predicting water will run downhill. He's already labelled Dorsey as a coffee fetcher. We'll see won't we?

@boo-fagley said:
Thanks Hoorta. I appreciate your clearing that up.
Paxton has been hurt. At times he has looked legit. Im going to hold off on judgement until I see more playing time from him.
Only thing about Lynch is apparently Elway has about as much confidence in him as I do in Kizer. John's been extremely visible scouting top QB prospects of late, and that wouldn't be the case if he thought Paxton was his QBOTF.
-
@boo-fagley said:
Of course he has.
Garret is still "2 tackle Texas" as of right now. I expected bigger things out of him. Didnt you? Corey Coleman has panned out just as Ghoolie predicted. What has Joe Thomas brought the Browns? Misery. Who cares if he is the best in the game. Ghoolie has advocated that youre not winning a thing without a QB. By QB were talking Ben, Brady, Brees. Not Kizer. Not Johnny kick you in the nutsack.
Odd then that you failed to list even one positive example...
And for the record I knew you were not a Phoolie alt... you are not nearly as abrasive.
