    Ben won 2 SB and is 22-2 versus the Browns. Only a jackoff believes that he even cares about preseason, let alone needs it to be "sharp".

    Every year Browns the Hoortas get all excited by fabricating a bunch of meaningless, non-football factors that have absolutely nothing to do with football. Every year, it is the same thing, " The Steelers are done" The founder of "THE HOORTAS", Hoorta, makes a predictable, annual pilgrimage to TBB to tell EVERYONE how every other team is in trouble....how their player and coach losses will be detrimental, how their contract problems will bring them back to earth.....BLAH BLAH HOORTA BLAH................................... EVERYONE IS GETTING WORSE AND ONLY THE BROWNS..................VIA GENIUS THAT ONLY THE HOORTAS UNDERSTAND............ARE GETTING BETTER.

    This isn't Bullschidt....................it is Hoorta Schidt 

    Here is all you need to know. The Steelers turn recruits into football players. They have always had a revolving door of people coming in and out. The Steelers have perennially been game ready based on tougher players, discipline, consistency of football philosophy, and a more cohesive family structure. Oddsmakers give the home team 3 points. They also make divisional rivalries closer than other games. So, the Steelers are 5.5 point favorites even with the Browns having all the home field advantages.

    I will be the first to admit that on paper the Browns have much more scoring potential than ever before in the V 2.0 era. Since the defense seems to be stingy, a couple big plays could get the Browns close to a win, or actually winning. I hope that is the case. However, history and logic weigh in heavy.

    • Ben is a Browns crusher 22-2
    • The Steelers own the Browns at home, and have the ability to take over the stadium, especially if Ben takes the fans out of it early
    • The Steelers historically have never been slowed by players showing up at the last minute. 
    • The Steelers scrubs STILL beat the Browns best
    • Hue Jackson's teams tend to be penalty and mistake-prone. Watching Hard Knocks, I don't see that this has changed or even been addressed
    • Hue Jackson's offense has yet to break out of the dink-and-dump reputation. Defenses salivate and benefit from this

    Ghoolie's Prediction   Steelers 20 - Browns 17

    Also, look for Hoorta to get kicked out of his house for bringing up Ghoolie at the dinner table and bedroom.

    Who wants to hear from a Frak khunt. No one here

      Every year Ghoolie predicts water runs downhill. Not too hard when the Browns have stunk for so long.

        I get that. But the draft and this week is all we get most years to go out of our minds with positivity and what could be, and no need to prematurely ejaculate on parades. Your ground work has been laid dude. Your “l told ya so’s” will still be waiting for you. But for now, right now, be a damn fan.

          I think it is rather telling that we call it steeler week and the steelers definately aren't going around calling it browns week.....

          Over on the steelers board they definately dont think of this as a rivalry or special game at all

              @ghoolie said:

              I called Hue Jackson out before his first preseason game was over. You plastered me with article after article about how I was full of schidt, about how I didn't understand football. You gave me the same "expert" horseschidt then that you are now, which is I am not smart enough to see what is going on. Yes, here you are, now agreeing with me, as if you too, knew Hue sucked. You didn't Larry, you LOVED the guy. You GUARANTEED me success. You assured me that Sashi and DePo combined with Hue was FINALLY the winning combination.

              How is that water running downhill? You admitted many times that when I told you in 1995 that Bill Belichik would be an SB winning HC before the Browns ever made the playoff,  I was absolutely visionary. Who else predicted that back then, Larry? Tell me? I told you after the FIRST PRESEASON GAME that Crennel and Sewage would total schidt and would never have success. I wanted them fired in the preseason. You and Flugels went on and on about how Belichik and Ozzie were going to fall apart without what you called the real genius behind the scenes. So save your water downhill bullschidt for someone else. I missed Lynch (maybe), but that's all ya got.

              Look, you are a very intelligent guy, and I still consider you a pal. You are one of the most well-read Browns experts I have ever met. HOWEVER.....you have a severe shortcoming when it comes to understanding human nature and the way things in the real-world work. The Browns have indeed satisfied my cry for better skilled players, still not impressed at QB, but it's possible. The OL crap is meaningless because it only takes a week to put together an acceptable OL.

              However, this franchise is still disorganized, mistake-prone and without focus. That, in my mind makes them a 4 - 12 team at best.

              Dude, get over yourself. You aren't that good. You try to make yourself out to be a genius about everything, including the game of football. If you are smart about anything football related, it would be in making some predictions, which has not one iota to do with the game. All that shows is that you might be good at gambling or fantasy football. Music, sure. Water, you betcha. But you have not shown at ALL a knowledge of the game.

              Now, as for your predictions, sure you have gotten some things right, but you give yourself a handicap with you constant posting and multiple predictions. You cant be a genius and better than others by giving yourself multiple chances. And there are multiple examples of this from you.

              Whether you want to admit it or not, you want any kind of reaction from people on here. You want to brag when you get something right, and want to ignore or give yourself some kind of excuse when you are wrong. If you didnt want the reaction, you wouldn't post the amount you do on here, and say things to get a reaction. And you change your story so many times on here and predictions that I believe you do it because you know it will elicit a reply. 

              You come off as incredibly narcissistic and refuse to admit to anything negative about Ghoolie. Not when you make a bold prediction about Hue being bad after 1 preseason game, no you then say he will be gone after 1 year. When he is not, oh I never said that. Paxton Lynch will be the best QB in this draft. After he shows to have not been, you says he deserves more time, but others who you didnt pick dont after far less time. But then in this very post, you cant even admit to Lynch, saying I was wrong about Lynch (maybe). But whatever, it is you, it is your internet genius, toughest man alive persona and schick. Go for it.

              But dont come on here and give guys a hard time because they have any kind of hope or love for something. No, Ghoolie or Tom or Harry doesnt get to decide that for anybody. You try to act at some point like you have some hope, and dont get the same kind of response as your hate filled posts so you go back to the trash. And when you have no response to any kind of issue you result to that same trash to try and deflect from any real substance. So you rattle out some racist, homophobic, childish rhetoric. 

              I dont care about the thing from a year ago or so about a first fight with whoever it was. Violence doesnt solve anything. What I would love to see though is some kind of bet between you and whoever it is that you get into the most with about a prediction on wins, heck even an over under. Pick the cost.

              If you really wanted to be an actual fan, or show how smart you are, why not actually start a thread with some real talk. Not some kind of trivia, heck not even something about how the ins and outs about how football really works, but SOMETHING substantial. Not insult after insult, but a REAL topic.

              We know you wont do it, because it doesnt go along with Ghoolie and may not further your agenda. You will just keep hijacking threads about how smart you are, and nothing substantial.

                  Bro, I AM one of you, but you know, look at it from my perspective. I go back to Jim Brown hugging me at Hiram in 1962. I walked next to Clark, Hick, Fiss, Gain, Rode Groza's shoulders at Hiram and shared hot dogs that my Dad bought for us three after a Hiram practice. I don't need to prove anything to douchebags here, Now YOU............. different story. You are capable of being a Browns fan and also a human being. So, I get it. You are pumped up, this is your team, and you would like to have an old fart cheering alongside you. Admirable of you, you are a real fan. and most likely, one hell of a guy (kid?)

                  You see, for me, this team, I see it as a fake Browns, an imitation, certainly V2.0. The ides of me just whoring myself and giving unadulterated support to this box of dog-schidt doesn't sit well. It just doesn't. 

                  Most of the dumber, mentally one-dimensional people here, like mjp28, Dumb Oven, Hoorta and Gip, think that when the Browns start winning I am going to pretend like I have supported them all along. But that isn't me, it has never been me, never in my life. Winning has absolutely nothing to do with this. I didn't abandon my team or blast them in the Nick SKorich and Phipps era because the Browns were something special and the players bought into it.

                  Garrett making a tape about wanting to be a Cowboy? Gordon not getting to camp? Joe Thomas laughing on the sideline while the team is getting butt pounded? A new, multi-million dollar regime not even having an OL in place 7 days before the Steelers? You go back and watch Kosar getting murdered, Brown getting gang tackled, the faces on the fans at the last home game............. when THIS team behaves like they understand and respect that? Then I will pay some respect. Will I ever love the Browns V 2.0? I seriously doubt it. If they won the SB this year, I would be glad, but it's not the same as the real Browns winning it.

                  WIsh I could meet you closer in the middle man. I really do.

                  I know. It is like rooting for a big stinky dog turd most days. But there are days, few and far between, where you look at that turd, and you’re standing just far enough away to avoid the smell, and the sun is hitting it just right and it has a shiny sheen to it, and you think “That’s one healthy turd. That dog must be eating right. Good for that dog!”

                        Bro, I AM one of you, but you know, look at it from my perspective. I go back to Jim Brown hugging me at Hiram in 1962. I walked next to Clark, Hick, Fiss, Gain, Rode Groza's shoulders at Hiram and shared hot dogs that my Dad bought for us three after a Hiram practice. I don't need to prove anything to douchebags here, Now YOU............. different story. You are capable of being a Browns fan and also a human being. So, I get it. You are pumped up, this is your team, and you would like to have an old fart cheering alongside you. Admirable of you, you are a real fan. and most likely, one hell of a guy (kid?)

                        You see, for me, this team, I see it as a fake Browns, an imitation, certainly V2.0. The ides of me just whoring myself and giving unadulterated support to this box of dog-schidt doesn't sit well. It just doesn't. 

                        Most of the dumber, mentally one-dimensional people here, like mjp28, Dumb Oven, Hoorta and Gip, think that when the Browns start winning I am going to pretend like I have supported them all along. But that isn't me, it has never been me, never in my life. Winning has absolutely nothing to do with this. I didn't abandon my team or blast them in the Nick SKorich and Phipps era because the Browns were something special and the players bought into it.

                        Garrett making a tape about wanting to be a Cowboy? Gordon not getting to camp? Joe Thomas laughing on the sideline while the team is getting butt pounded? A new, multi-million dollar regime not even having an OL in place 7 days before the Steelers? You go back and watch Kosar getting murdered, Brown getting gang tackled, the faces on the fans at the last home game............. when THIS team behaves like they understand and respect that? Then I will pay some respect. Will I ever love the Browns V 2.0? I seriously doubt it. If they won the SB this year, I would be glad, but it's not the same as the real Browns winning it.

                        WIsh I could meet you closer in the middle man. I really do.

                        One of the few times I've ever nearly completely agreed with you and shared your sentiments.

                        I was there at the old stadium shoulder to shoulder in Sheet seats, peaking around that Shmucking column. When they had to cart the sound system out with a little trolley so you could hear the announcers. I was there when we played the Patriots in 94 and won the wild card only to lose to the Shmucking steeler's yet again.. But we were contenders back then, even when our team sometimes sucked.

                        We were never laughing stocks.. .It is so damn hard to be a Browns fan. And spending all this money on new looks and new banners and new sayings means NOTHING if you can't beat the AFC North opponents. And I agree, it means NOTHING if you don't respect the past of this organization... My kids are now 19 and 17 and they have seen the Browns make it to the playoffs once and get beat.. 

                        They have lost an entire generation of fans..

                          I think it is rather telling that we call it steeler week and the steelers definately aren't going around calling it browns week.....

                          Over on the steelers board they definately dont think of this as a rivalry or special game at all

                          Yes, it must be something official.

                          I titled this thread as, "PIT at CLE," and it was changed my an admin, so it must be official.  That's fine.  I'm only a guest here and I'm from Pittsburgh, which makes me a very low life form here, and ummm, yeh, we don't call it Browns Week in Pittsburgh.

                          I dunno what they think at the Steelers boards. This is the only sports board that I belong to.  Mike Tomlin takes the Browns very seriously and he needs to get his team to take this game seriously as well or they will lose.

                          As for CLE, I see that they don't even know who will play what position on the O-line as of yet. It's starting to get a bit late to try to decide that.

                          From the Browns website: " Jackson said he’ll wait until later in the week to announce his plans for the makeup of Cleveland’s starting offensive line."

                          Consider the Ravens, They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable are you to God than the Ravens? Book of Luke, Chapter 12, Verse 24.

                            Ben won 2 SB and is 22-2 versus the Browns. Only a jackoff believes that he even cares about preseason, let alone needs it to be "sharp".

                            Every year Browns the Hoortas get all excited by fabricating a bunch of meaningless, non-football factors that have absolutely nothing to do with football. Every year, it is the same thing, " The Steelers are done" The founder of "THE HOORTAS", Hoorta, makes a predictable, annual pilgrimage to TBB to tell EVERYONE how every other team is in trouble....how their player and coach losses will be detrimental, how their contract problems will bring them back to earth.....BLAH BLAH HOORTA BLAH................................... EVERYONE IS GETTING WORSE AND ONLY THE BROWNS..................VIA GENIUS THAT ONLY THE HOORTAS UNDERSTAND............ARE GETTING BETTER.

                            This isn't Bullschidt....................it is Hoorta Schidt 

                            Here is all you need to know. The Steelers turn recruits into football players. They have always had a revolving door of people coming in and out. The Steelers have perennially been game ready based on tougher players, discipline, consistency of football philosophy, and a more cohesive family structure. Oddsmakers give the home team 3 points. They also make divisional rivalries closer than other games. So, the Steelers are 5.5 point favorites even with the Browns having all the home field advantages.

                            I will be the first to admit that on paper the Browns have much more scoring potential than ever before in the V 2.0 era. Since the defense seems to be stingy, a couple big plays could get the Browns close to a win, or actually winning. I hope that is the case. However, history and logic weigh in heavy.

                            • Ben is a Browns crusher 22-2
                            • The Steelers own the Browns at home, and have the ability to take over the stadium, especially if Ben takes the fans out of it early
                            • The Steelers historically have never been slowed by players showing up at the last minute. 
                            • The Steelers scrubs STILL beat the Browns best
                            • Hue Jackson's teams tend to be penalty and mistake-prone. Watching Hard Knocks, I don't see that this has changed or even been addressed
                            • Hue Jackson's offense has yet to break out of the dink-and-dump reputation. Defenses salivate and benefit from this

                            Ghoolie's Prediction   Steelers 20 - Browns 17

                            Also, look for Hoorta to get kicked out of his house for bringing up Ghoolie at the dinner table and bedroom.

                             I was not getting good vibes about the Steelers winning the opener, giving the edge to the browns.

                            You being one of the most intelligent football minds on this forum has me on the fence again.

                                But, the idea of whoring yourself to any other team that may be winning does sit well with you, clearly. Ergo...FRAK whore fits you.

                                    I was referring to his assessment of Glommie.   

                                    By the way...that brings something up:  while Z is under instructions from Stan to not ban Ghoolie, I do not think that that means that Z cannot change the screen name of that troll.....like he does with many of the others on here:  Vagitron, Steelerfag backwards, boo fagley, etc.  Why can't Z give him a troll name?  We have certainly provided enough options on here for him to choose, no?

                                      We were never laughing stocks.. .It is so damn hard to be a Browns fan. And spending all this money on new looks and new banners and new sayings means NOTHING if you can't beat the AFC North opponents. And I agree, it means NOTHING if you don't respect the past of this organization... My kids are now 19 and 17 and they have seen the Browns make it to the playoffs once and get beat.. 

                                      They have lost an entire generation of fans..

                                      Bob, any time some Southerner blasts my fanship,  I show them a picture of me and Brown at Hiram in 1962 and I tell them the stories of why I am a Browns fan. I don't blast their team, nor do to try to equate the old championships with the new. Instead, I illustrate why I love the Browns. To a man, every fan gets it, and they lay off. Gipper likes to throw the work FRAK around, as if he is a model Browns fan, with honors. Frankly, to me, the despicable fan is the one who urinates on what once was and automatically equates this V 2.0 schidt as being worthy of the name Browns. These caulk suckers have done nothing to win such loyalty. Do you believe they have? Dropped passes, penalties, self-promotion during asss kickings, excuses, missed assignments, penalties, arrests, and basic lack of respect for the fraternity. These asssholes don't get to come into the frat house just because some rich bastard spent blood money to acquire the name. Fauhk that. his team should NEVER have been named the Browns............They should have been given a new name and they should have had to earn loyalty the way Paul Brown, Lavelli, Kelly, Wooten, Renfro and the rest of them did. Had this team been named something like the Cleveland Bulldogs, the stadium would have started out largely vacant, but I promise you, the drive to riches would have produced a much better team. I think the fake Browns, V 2.0 don't care about any of this. I believe they without character, and for that reason believe the Steelers will again prevail. We will see. I hope they prove me wrong.
