    LeBron still  loves Cleveland/Akron.  Still has his home here. He just went to LA to semi-retire and to try to get into being a Hollywood producer.  Stars in his eyes and all that. 

    In fact, I hear that he may have to come stay back here, because his home in LA is like right in the area where fires  are destroying a lot of houses.

    That is a compelling argument Gipper. You are saying Lebron is deciding between being burned alive in a massive fire or moving back to Ohio? By the way Einstein, Akron and Cleveland are not the same place.

    They are in the same agglomeration.  You would know that if you were from here.   And it is not a matter of choosing one or the other.....he has a job that pays him millions of dollars, so he has to stay in LA.    But the reports were that he was literally driving around the streets of LA looking for a place to stay and not being able to find one.

    I don't believe for moment that you have a legal secretary.  Poseur. All you can do is look at my profile...and pretend to be like me.

    Really, you mean I might have been using sarcasm? Good for you Gipper. You are going to be ok  after all. Hang in there. Therapy can be a long road but we are all pulling for you.

    No, I don't think you were using sarcasm.  I just think you are a liar.   I told you in my first reply to you:  my therapy is by pulling the wings off little flies like you and then feeding you to the spiders. (I wouldn't actually do that to a real fly....just to poseurs)

  • Basketball star LeBron James and his family have joined hundreds of thousands of Californians forced to evacuate their homes by raging wildfires.

    The L.A. Lakers player posted to Twitter that his family had to flee their home in Los Angeles because of a nearby brush fire.

    “Man these LA (fires) aren’t no joke,” James wrote in the 3:53 a.m. post. “Had to emergency evacuate my house and I’ve been driving around with my family trying to get rooms. No luck so far!”

    It's going to be ok. One day you can afford to leave like Lebron and I did.

    That is one reason I would never live there. Yet he chose that over Cleveland. I have to travel to LA a ton. It is a dump. That has to hurt.

    Except, as I said, LeBron has not left.  His domicile is still here.  Just off Crystal Lake Rd.  He also has a residence in  LA for occupational purposes.  I can be there in about 8 minutes if you want me to check on it for you. He used to be  in walking distance when he lived in Wadsworth like I do.

    But, you are right about one thing:  I would never want to move to Seattle (or LA) with their overpriced real estate, and their overpriced coffee.  Again...that word:  Value.

    He chose the movie industry. Sorry you are too obtuse to comprehend that.

    That is a nice word. Did it occur to you that I might be in the movie industry? Many of us do not live full time in LA.

    No, it didn't occur to me at all....but now that I think of it.....sure, you are just that kind of flaky.

  • Very cool. Thanks Gipper.

  • Did a self tour there about a month ago. Very Cool. and at the same time sobering.

    And live in a  city leading the  country in number  of days  with  heavy  cloud  cover. Had a friend  that lived in  Seattle for a while, and said you  almost  never saw the sun in the  winter, with rain every  other day.

    I will never retire in Seattle. Great economy but the weather, traffic and taxes suck. Can't get anything in the city for less than 2 mil. It is always a cold drizzle in the winter. It is culturally alive but I need warm weather.

  • The national media is killing him today. They are saying he should have just said, "Yea, I screwed that up, I'm still learning about how to do the head coaching job and I just screwed that up."

    I listened to his explanation and I didn't even understand what in the hell he was talking about. He allowed the delay penalty to happen on purpose...why? It sounds like bull hockey. 

    Teams reflect their head coaches. Browns are reflecting who Freddie is. How did he earn the head coaching job again? I honestly don't know.

  • Freddie looked like the kid that pushed the A button on Madden to fast taking “Madden’s Advice” instead of the X button to call a pass play. 

    I’ll never understand some of these coaches and they way the game seems to overwhelm them into some of these decisions....

    I was out cutting wood listening to the game on the radio, coming into that series I’m thinking.... “Well we are going to have to go for it on any 4th down from here on out...” 

    The guy sent the punt team out on the field and I had to stop to look at the game clock on my phone.... 

    How does that happen? If your the Special Teams coach do you look at the head coach and say.... Hey man.... you sure you wanna punt here??  
     

    I just don’t understand why it seems so hard for some of these guys...

  • @jrb12711 said:

    In case you weren't watching the game, let me be sure to remind you of what Freddie decided to do.

    4th and 11 in a two score game, Freddie first decides to punt the ball (stupid). Realizes he made stupid mistake. Instead of using timeout, intentionally takes a delay of game penalty to make the 4th down play 4th and 16 that was game over if you don't get it. Of course they don't (because stupid) and we have the result we saw. This isn't "rookie learning curve". That's incompetence of the highest order. Rex Ryan was crying he was laughing so hard at how bad that decision was.

    As has been posted, I was intrigued by giving Freddie a shot and maybe having our lightning in a bottle. But peeps, this isn't "rookie coaching mistakes". The game is simply too fast for him right now, and it's resulting in incompetence, discipline penalties, and results where we are. I never really think there's a reason to fire someone 1/2 way, but I just hope unless we see some unbelievable shift we cut bait. It's clear as day Freddie just doesn't have the chops to do this.

    It does seem that way......but the fact is, the Browns have 9 games to play.....and very well could be favored to win all of them   (mjp has failed to show the spreads on these upcoming games...despite being asked to do so numerous times).

    If he sorely fucks up these games...with the talent now on this team, then we will know that what you say is true.

    That is not what mjp says. I think there is a thread on that.
