Josh Gordon Traded to Pats
-
Josh Gordon liked the instagram post of Hue getting fired. It's quite possible that Josh Gordon simply hated Hue and his system and everything to do with the Browns "process". Notice, a LOT of our moves still feel Exactly like moneyball moves. Everything, from cutting Nassib and Meder for unnamed newcomers to discussing trading Devalve. Who freaking knows how involved Depo still is with all of the decisions.
But trading Hyde was Definitely a moneyball move, 100%.
Trading Hyde wasn't moneyball hate to tell you. Either Hue or Haley refused to give Chubb enough touches, Dorsey forced their hand. Amazing how all of a sudden Duke Johnson got more involved in the offense when H & H got sent packing, huh?
Yeah, we really miss Carlos- Six carries for 11 yards against the Eagles. Long of seven, meaning he had 5 carries for four yards.
I have to think Dorsey- along with Wolf and Highsmith know a tad more about player evaluation than you do. It could be guys like Shelton, Nassib, and Meder (who's currently unemployed BTW) were bad fits for our scheme.

Trading Hyde, as you describe it, was a scene straight out of Moneyball.

I would've thought Dorsey's primary concern was the well-being of the team.

@the-gipper said:
If the Pats go to the Super Bowl it will not because of Gordon was any good or anything. Gordon is just another guy that Tom Brady makes look good. And besides they didn’t let them go for nothing they got a fifth round draft pick for him which is probably more then the Browns deserved to get considering his lack of production and his potential for losing his career
Sorry if I had to delete one of your replies to Trollie- guy has a serious problem thinking he's always right. Let's not forget he said Hue wasn't going to get fired this year, along with other nonsense.
Since he said everything sucks about the Browns, he should start following his Las Vegas Raiders.
Plus he's ignoring his own poll that 75% of this board want him gone. As usual, he's close to getting another time out. So how long for this time?
-
Not that the troll would care, but its simple for me, just admit you were wrong. The hate speech isnt right, but besides that, if you want any kind of props for actually getting some things right, then you have to accept when you are wrong.
So Mr. Ghoolie, if you want to have a shred of credibility or respect, then please answer like a real human on these 4 issues. Not some insult or just come back with how great and smart you are, but actually try to add some substance.
1. After the conclusion of 2016 regular season, you proclaimed Tom Brady was finished, and he would never win another playoff game. He proceeded to win 3 that year, including a Super Bowl. Last year, he won the MVP, won 2 more playoff games.
During this offseason I mentioned this to you, instead of saying yes I was wrong for whatever reason, you actually said you were completely right. That is absolutely a lie.
You have also talked a lot of crap on Josh Gordon all year, but now are singing his praises, and saying HE will take them to Super Bowl. That would take you even further in being wrong about Brady not winning another playoff game.
So the question is easy, so please explain how in any world you were correct about Brady?
2. You like to say you were the 1st one to call this person bad, a bust, etc. How many times have we heard, "I called Hue after 1st quarter of 1st preseason game." You also guaranteed Hue would be gone after year 1, yet that didn't happen. But the kicker, you have talked about a lot of Browns draft picks being busts, especially Myles, saying it before he stepped on the field. You like to say you admitted you were wrong about Lynch, only 4 years late. You actually called Myles a bust before 1st game last year, but said Lynch needed more time to be called a bust.
So exactly how do you explain that one?
3. Your "predictions" on the top players. How exactly should we give you credit for it when you say multiple people. I would like to be able to give you credit, because you seem like you need the validation, and it sounds like Tom is a decent guy. But when you 1st say Lamar Jackson, then Baker Mayfield, then Josh Rosen, exactly how can you get full credit?
And when you constantly rail on the team for not taking a QB at #1, then say they should not have taken one, how exactly should we take you seriously.
I am not going to go back again and post the top playmakers available at the Browns pick, I am sure you have seen it, but you just constantly complain that they didn't take the top playmakers when they had a chance, that the Browns are too stupid to do so. So looking at the past, the top playmaker taken available produces 1 really good player. Your argument cant be the Browns took the wrong one, because it was other teams. Your argument cant be that those players selected weren't the top playmakers, because they were drafted the highest at that time.
4. How can you say you don't care about the Browns, but be a member of the board. How can you constantly bring up about how people are crying about you to the owner of the board trying to censor you, but make a post how you want to purchase the board, of a team you care nothing about, and your 1st action as the owner would be to completely get rid of them? So what you are saying is that Ghoolie shouldn't be censored, should be allowed to say/do whatever you want, no matter how offensive, but others shouldn't even be allowed on here. So it really should just be a Ghoolie only disgusting, hate filled bitch fest.
So please explain yourself.
And I will post this reply to you every time you say something out of line that I see until you give an answer.

I’d rather see Josh Gordon in the NFL having success, then not. Who knows if we could’ve gotten a 3-4th rounder, it’s not something I’m gonna lose sleep over.
I would say Dorsey has gotten off to a great start with the selections of Baker, Ward, and Chubb. To name a few

He won't explain himself- because he can't. By his own admission- he's only here to "stir things up" in other words flamebait, and draw attention to himself to stroke his ego. To be fair, there are rare instances when he actually talks football in a civil manner.
It's been pointed out many times- he's only still here because he's all palsy with the guy who owns this board. Zombo kicked him off permanently, (to great celebration) and he went crawling to the Head Administrator to let him back on. He'd be gone permanently again otherwise. So the Moderator's hands are tied in that regard, we can only do so much to minimize his BS.
As I pointed out- his poll said 75% of the Board wants him gone, but he won't follow through on leaving us in peace. And furthermore, when he's been temporarily kicked off, he's taken to posting on another Browns Board (that I can't name) me and Nickers occasionally frequent. The Troll needs an audience, can't help himself. BTW, I think he just got kicked off there too. Whatever will he do? I'll warrant come back here and start posting ever escalating crap until he gets another timeout.
So, here's my suggestion to Ghoolie: If you don't like the way we run things around here, go have Stan set up your very own Message Board, where you can say whatever the hell BS you want to, whenever the hell you want to. I'm sure it will be real popular- NOT!!!
PS One of the now defunct boards that Ghoolie and his pal Rich4Eagle (he's my pal too, at least in person, and thankfully doesn't post here anymore) actually set up a subforum where they could talk to one another. But they just couldn't do it. Zombo tried limiting Ghoolie to creating and posting in one thread a week- and you can see how that's worked out.

Someone's in D-Nile that there actually are such things as "team rules". Of course Dorsey knew there was the possibility Josh could stay out of trouble- he just couldn't take that chance with the Browns. Not after an almost continuous litany of screwups since 2012.

But trading Hyde was Definitely a moneyball move, 100%.
Trading Hyde wasn't moneyball hate to tell you. Either Hue or Haley refused to give Chubb enough touches, Dorsey forced their hand. Amazing how all of a sudden Duke Johnson got more involved in the offense when H & H got sent packing, huh?
Yeah, we really miss Carlos- Six carries for 11 yards against the Eagles. Long of seven, meaning he had 5 carries for four yards.
I have to think Dorsey- along with Wolf and Highsmith know a tad more about player evaluation than you do. It could be guys like Shelton, Nassib, and Meder (who's currently unemployed BTW) were bad fits for our scheme.

Hyde blocks. Baker is getting destroyed. I have chosen more great players than has Dorsey.

LOL, since 1999 I have too, but I don't have to do a look at me, shout from the rooftops see how great I can pick players. Dorsey did a great job stocking KC with guys like Mahomes, and was better than you this year Mr. 1-7 game changer Saquon Barkley.
Still got a horn to toot, huh? You're just like the stock trader that posts how great his winners are, but regarding his losers? Crickets. Like Paxton Lynch- for years. And every one of the top QBs you were touting this year, can't be wrong when you cover all your bases. Want me to copy the post that got you kicked off the 'Tard here while I'm at it- so guys can see another example of the real flamebating sarcastic you? Nice PM too.
And I'll say it again. Ever wonder why you've been kicked off of every Browns message board I'm aware of you've ever posted on? It's because you choose to be an Internet azzhole. Well the Moderators here are past fed up with your act. Internet Tough Guy. Act civil, or your posts are gone, keep it up, you're going to be gone for an extended period of time. This Board gets along just fine without your BS trolling. Be thankful Stan opts to keep you around, because about no one else does.

He's throwing the bait, and you're biting the hook.
I dont care. I know exactly what he is TRYING to do. But since he wants to make people made and annoy them, I am going to constantly embarrass him until he is either gone or answers the question.
You realize ignoring him doesnt do the job, he just continues to do all his stupid shtick, so we will see if he is man enough to try and actually discuss something

I'll expound a little more Gunz, but it does seem you've got him figured out pretty well. I heard from Trollie he doesn't even believe 1\2 of the crap he post here, just keeps escalating the BS until someone takes the bait. Thinks us big bad Mods are picking on poor widdle Ghoolie when he gets out of line.
And you have to realize he's an absolute master at revisionist history. Great at predicting things? As I told him, the Browns have been so bad for so long, predicting that ______ is going to suck- was about as difficult as predicting water runs downhill.
I wasn't going to do it, but after meditating about it on my nice two hour bike ride on the Waterford- I really didn't want to embarass him any further, but he's well beyond that stage. Here's King Ghoolie's post (in part) from the other Board, and why EE (one of their Mods) banned him.
"IF WE HAD A QB, A COUPLE WIDE RECEIVERS, A DEFENSE CAPABLE OF SOME STOPS, A KICKED WHO DIDN'T MISS KICKS, REFS WHO STOPPED CALLING OUR PENALTIES, AND IF THEY JUST LET US SHOOT BB GUNS AT THE OPPOSING TEAM... WE WOULD BE UNDEFEATED.
HASLAM, DORKEY, AND WILLIAMS THE THUG REALLY HAVE THIS TEAM PERCOLATING.
GO TAMPA BAY!
Seriously, Browns fans are jackoffs."Yup Gunz- this is the real guy behind the curtain in the Wizard of Oz- when he forgets to take his Meds.

I dunno why, you guys have been here a lot longer and are on here way more than me, but I feel like I have to do this to him. I'm tired of every single time I come on here, which usually isn't a whole lot he is trying to bully someone, so I have taken up the task of teaching the bully a lesson.
Maybe at some point I will tire of it, but at the moment I want to embarrass him, and that coming from a very good and heartfelt person. I just cant stand all the hypocrisy. At least the other things that confuse me on here aren't coming from a dark place, no matter how wrong or misplaced.
But I have an idea. Since I really don't have an opinion on fatty being here or not its yalls call, but I say if he doesn't answer, or try to give a response then he gets suspended. 1 week for not answering in a week. And once he reaches the number of issues Gordon had, he gets longer, traded, or his name changed lol

It probably was and he thought that the well-being of the team was to be without Gordon.
Okay, that's just silly. I mean, who needs a hall of fame caliber wide receiver? Oh yeah...the schmucks working out Brice Butler.
