    He'll have to chow down on immense amounts of soy protein to maintain muscle mass- and I don't know if that stuff has all the essential amino acid precursors. OK, I looked- 8 out of 9.  Pro football player and 100% vegan probably doesn't mix. Join PETA while you're at it.  

    there are more and better vegan sources of complete protein than soy. And simply adding brown rice to a bean like lentils gives u the full chain that meat does. The issue with vegans is they often dont understand you have to pull protein not just from two seperate sources, but "complimentary" sources. 

    ive become a beans and rice guy....ill eat meat occassionaly for taste but its not an every day or even weekly thing, like it used to be. And i still eat eggs so fuck vegans. tgey wont even eat honey or milk. Raw fucking goat milk is prob the best pure source of protein on the planet and nothing had to die for u to.drink it.

    You must fart a lot. 

    And what about the poor poor baby goat for which that milk was intended? Sadly bleating in the corner. Breaks my heart.

    Sheep milk = Roquefort cheese. Yum.  As to vegans, to each their own. 

    PS Feta cheese (usually made from goat milk) is one of the few I don't like at all.  

  • signed with the lions

  • It's not yet official, but it does appear he is signing with the Lions.Apparently he wants to start, which he probably wouldn't here. I wish him well & I applaud Dorsey for not overpaying for a 30 year old backup. We will survive.

    I LOVE a good Greek salad with Kalamata olives & feta cheese, although too much feta CAN overpower an otherwise great salad. John's Bar on Cleveland Ave NW in Canton has a great Greek salad. My standard order there is an order of smelt/cocktail sauce, a Greek salad & a beer or two. Gourmets may thumb their noses at that combo, but I love it!

  • You'd have to become a Lions fan to support Mike Daniels' team this season.

    That Lions DL looks pretty solid now -- Trey Flowers, Damon Harrison, Da'Shawn Hand [87.4] and A'Shawn Robinson [89.8] before adding Daniels.

    That’s a lotta money for a rotational DT. 7.8 mil guaranteed. Makes sense he chased the money and makes sense we weren’t the ones to pay it.

  • All 1 year deals. And winning in that 1 year mattered? Suh-TB-9.2M///McCoy-Car.-8M///Snacks-Lions-9.2M///Daniels-Lions-9.1M....sure seems like, top dollar to play..Win or lose? I hope Ogun, kicks ass & takes names later.. for just under 1M.. no harm & keep swinging at your price Dorsey..

  • He may have also wanted to do what McCoy did:   join a foe in the same division as the team that released him in order to get payback.

    But to do that you have to live in Detroit?  Nah,  it's the millions.

    Is it?  Do we know if the Browns even made an offer?  And if so, was it all that deficient in comparison?

    No we don't- and we weren't going to offer him a $9 million one year contract either. He apparently wanted to start, instead of being a rotational player, and the contract the Lions gave him isn't rotational money.  

    The tide has turned- and we don't need to overpay to get talent here anymore. 

  • As odd as it sounds l’m ok with not getting a guy like Daniels. The table is set for some fierce competition amongst the DL, and l kind of look forward to seeing who among the Zettels and Ekaules step up their game and push for playing time.

    well zettel is a DE so unless he put on some considerable mass in the offseason he's not gonna be DT material. We're "set" st DE with Smith and Avery as rotation depth. There might be a spot for Zettel there as garbage time rotation. But DT depth still concerns me. We play Blt twice and thats the best interior OL in football....thsts a heavy lifting game. I dont want sheldon and jobi accumulating too much dmg in that game. Hopefully baker and thst offense can put so much pts on the board esrly that blt has to start passing sooner.

    A good number of those backup guys have been with the team about a year now, and were Dorsey pick ups. We traded a 7th for Devaroe Lawrence. We axed Austin Reiter and Carl Nassib to make room for a couple of them, both guys who found some success elsewhere. Presumably Dorsey saw something in these guys so he went out of his way to gets them. Let’s see what they can do.

    Also, read today that Smith is practicing with the 3rd team DL most recently. He’s a guy l think we both liked last year, but getting a subtle message to not rest on his laurels. We got good pace setters for competition and betterment as a whole is bound to happen.

  • Well....this is the Browns depth chart for this year at DT:

    DT 65 Ogunjobi, Larry 17/3 91 Price, Brian SF18 94 Davis, Carl W/Bal 96 Ekuale, Daniel CF18    
    DT 98 Richardson, Sheldon U/Min 93 Coley, Trevon SF16 99 Lawrence, Devaroe T/NO

    Sufficient?  or Insufficient at this point?

    I think the Browns still want some help there,otherwise they would 

    not have been looking at McCoy and Daniels

    The 30 yr old would've been a nice addition...but for the right price.  (unless you're desperate, which we're not at that position)

    1) Thats interesting about Smith...who's taking 2nd team reps from him? Thomas? 

    2) As far as i can tell all those pickups we got from letting meder and nassib go....didnt work out. When jobi was injured they kept him in there pkaying at prob 80%. That speaks volumes about that rotation. And why Sheldon was such a key signing. The fact we were still persuing DT's lije mccoy and daniels means Berea is worried what hsppens if sheldon or jobi get hurt
