hey Stan I'm slammed at work right now but was planning on leaving a little early Saturday from Solon and heading to Berea for camp. Maybe I'll leave around 3 ish and that'll give me time to hang out. What's the deal with traffic there?
-
I will put up a map. I just looked at the Browns (.pdf) map off their web site and it is poorly done IMO.
What the deal is, is Berea is getting new Train over/under passes and the entire North-end surrounding the Browns Berea facility is under construction and all roads closed. However, you can't enter the Browns facility from their main front gates anyhow, you have to enter through the South enterance off Beech Street within Baldwin Wallace College Campus (which is NOT under construction).
The corner of Beech Street off Bagley Road is where you will park, so come in using I-71 to Bagley Road and head West. You will pass Southwest General Hospital, Cuyahoga County Fairgrounds, Berea High School, then come upon Baldwin Wallace, which signs and crowd will point out the designated parking areas. Then it is a 3-4 block walk up Beech street to enter the complex. (If coming to the Upper Deck Sports Cafe, continue on Bagley for another mile or so. The Upper Deck is in the same plaza as Marc's grocery store).
From the North, take I-71 to I-237 (Berea/Airport freeway) as if you are going to Hopkins airport or the IX center. I-237 runs straight into North Rocky River Drive before branching left onto Front Street. Front Street is closed, so stay straight on N. Rocky River Drive for a few miles until it intersects with Bagley Road. Turn left to go to the Browns Parking at Beech & Bagley, turn Right if coming to the Upper Deck Sports Cafe.
We'll leave the light on ...

How's that ball team doing??
Looking forward to the season my man. I have a feeling we are going to show marked improvement...maybe even see a few wins this year..lol...I hope so anyway.
For a split second I almost decided to join you on Saturday, but remembered I have something going on Sat night.
-
We have created a TRAINING CAMP INFORMATION PAGE complete with available times/dates and map to avoid construction and road closings in Berea.
We will also be bringing you first hand TRAINING CAMP REPORTS such as we have done in seasons past. Check here on Saturday Night for The Browns Boards Opening Day Training Camp report.
If coming out to Berea for Opening Day of Camp, Saturday August 1st, meet up with us at The Upper Deck Sports Cafe. See above link for details and a map to The Upper Deck & the Browns Facility.

The first player on the field for the first training camp practice Saturday morning was the first rounder.
Alex Mack left the locker room about 8:05 for his first full-squad training camp practice, about 20 minutes after gates opened for anxious fans. Mack has since been joined by a steady stream of teammates.
The Browns practice today at 8:45 a.m. and 5:45 p.m., and again Sunday at 1:30 p.m. Stay tuned to ClevelandBrowns.com this afternoon for photos, stories and interviews.

Go Alex...be a warrior!!! Go Browns!

Nice.
I am thinking of going tonight. If I go I will take some pictures for all of those who cannot be here.
Go Browns!
Wait, it is open to the public?
-
I really wish i could go to camp...570 or so miles is a little far to drive for a practice.
Any pics and reports is what I count on...thanks in advance.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -
We should have this thread where everyone dumps their pictures and comments about training camp. That'd be a good candidate for a sticky.

Good. We want guys who cannot wait to play, love the game, and are pumped as hell to get started. At the very least it tells me he wants to be a leader. No matter how small a gesture, I like the statement.

I'm 2,000 miles away, so yea, thanks Kosar.
TBB is definitely my #1 source for Browns info.

I already love this guy. He is displaying exactly the kind of attitude we need to see from the captain of our O-Line.
-
The team did most of the scrimmaging and match-ups on the far field, near the media and VIP people. Not much to report, besides Dawson was drilling kicks left and right on the near field, until a position coach started tinkering with his mechanics, then he seemed to lose power and had movement on his balls. Leave this guy alone, he was absolute money doing it his way.
One neat new drill Mangini must have implimented, was having the QB's throw passes to the other QB's who were running the patterns (look closely at picture below, QB's in orange). I believe this was a good drill at having the QB's learn the patterns even better by running the routes instead of sitting and awaiting their turn. There was no coverage, just basic patterns and walking through plays.
More to come ... I'm on location at The Upper Deck, with Rifferx on his way and fans streaming in.
We will load some pictures shortly
