Throwing away money and picks

They drink paint over there?
Explains LondonBrown's posts then.
Well, I had never written pint and it turns out that, like every other freaking word in English, it is written differently than it is pronounced...

So how would you spell paint based on its pronunciation?
Sashi's plan also depleted the Browns of ALL positive offensive veteran presence. Where did that get all our rookie talent? They had no leadership in their position rooms or on field. IMHO, Sashi did us no favors. The picks he compiled were at the expense of development of our young players & costing us top QUALITY players with his "trading down". His plan did NOT accelerate this Teams' growth...it Retarded that growth.

They were developing just fine, they just happened to be rookies. We’ll see the benefits over the next couple of years of the ground that’s been laid in the last two.

Typically the threats are never followed through. Some people just disappear and never return which would be more my style of doing it.
When I came on here mudfly was a pretty big poster, and he just disappeared one day like a fart in the wind...
Then there's Tour, who has made one post in the last month.
COME BACK TOUR!

Two of my favourites. Miss them both.

Exactly...
My guess is that Tour will be back as time goes on. Mud though has been gone a long time and I'm not sure he'll ever come back but hopefully he will.

Mud just got tired & frustrated with the constant losing. I hope he'll be back this fall.
Over the years, we've gained new people, lost several as time has moved on. A few have gone to that great gridiron up in the sky. I've always said we're not the only show (Browns message board) on the Internet. Some folks don't like our style here. FWIW, there's another one I occasionally check in on- there was a great rift over the relative merits of Brady Quinn- several guys got kicked off and permanently, and and several other regular posters followed them when they started up their own board. Several guys "over there" I'd welcome with open arms here. We have a bunch of hardcore Browns fans that we keep in touch with and Tailgate with who almost never take the time to post.

clear as day to me.London & Tour are still backed into the Sashi Brown Camp. Football Guys FO have failed too. Most posters here have moved past it.They were the same with Petine.Mudfly & Tour both threw some jabs at both sides of SB & Mud disappeared. they were close on a lot of things but this.Some good football junkie reads by both. None of the 3 want the chosen one on this board..Tour2ma is working a reddit Browns tradeable mock draft.hope he returns but that's his choice
I've kept in contact with Tour. He's got other stuff he's working on, got mad at me for closing a Saquon thread. He'll be back eventually- but probably not with the volume of posting he's done in the past.

Paint (from painting) > peint
Pint (beer) > paint
The thing with English is that you have to learn BOTH how it is written and how it is pronounced. Same goes with French. But in Spanish and German, for example, if you know how it is writen you can pronounce it and vice versa (though in Spanish the H alone doesn't make a sound and both the V and B are pronounced like a B )

It's 10:40pm in London.
The summer I spent there the locals would have their second paint down the throat by now.
EDIT: logic says it is written 'paint', but English dictionary says I refer to pint. Weird language. Viva el español.

Overreacted. Apologies all
I still think we’re making bad moves though #65 for a one year bridge QB being the worst of it.
The Browns have got Duke, Kirksey, Ogunjobi for instance at that spot or lower. It’s a valuable pick.

The positive impact of Taylor is going to be felt immediately.
Same for Landry. No waiting around to get used to the NFL like a draft pick.

Damn that Mel Kiper.

We may win 6-8 games and then Taylor still leaves whereas a rookie taken there is yours for many years (hopefully).

I think it's a case of getting the balance right. To me it looks like it's swung one way then the other, as in overpaid experience then a team full of rookies. I think building for the future yet winning games now is definately do- able. Just having TT has improved our chances of winning massively imo.

It’s an adios from me, no point posting stuff and joining in if you’re going to be accused of being drunk every time you do.
Adios to the poster Nero a fellow European, one day the men of Spain will work out unemployment is around 50% because you sleep for five hours during the day ?

You are taking this far too seriously. People disagree on here and will give each other crap. Wait till draft day. It will be a blood bath on here of people being personally offended that another team got who they wanted.

Oh and stick with it London, I like hearing a fellow brits opinion.
All my love, birmingham

It may have been a matter of expecting not to be able to get a bridge in free agency. The only FA QB in the mix who wanted to be here previously (McCarron) seems to have no interest in being a bridge QB. That leaves the Browns in the feeding frenzy after going 0-16 and having a reputation for putting QBs through the meat grinder.
The losing and rep painted them into a corner. It is costly but at this point it was a big pill they had to swallow to get a decent bridge QB.

The Browns also have to be perceived as a team worth going to in free agency. Taylor and Landry help the case.

Kizer might soon feel he died and went to cheese heaven.
GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND! -

And if he does just stink, no one will know for years as he hangs out behind Rodgers and likely Hundley.

It hasn't though really has it, we haven't landed anyone in FA that wouldn't be here if not for those two, no big names?
