    Nahh Tom V. never got that in depth into players. Only the big names like Winslow...and rich...well rich could never write that coherently.

    I guess we started a fire with the puppet conspiracy, but really not every idiot is a puppet...there really are idiots out there.

    Most likely just another pissburgh troll................................LOL

  • In other news....I still heart boobs....

    I dunno RIP just feels like an asshole I've come across on this board before, just can't put my finger on it. It could be thought that he's an entirely new asshole which isn't out of the question, after all there are a plethora of assholes out there. It's not out of the question that a new one found our message board and decided to start posting.

    Not-at-all?

  • @jadbf said:

    Not long winded enough. and doesn't blame the fans for what is wrong with the team.

    Yet....lol.

    Don't really think it is, but the general statements about players, with no information how that conclusion was come to, was one of his bits.

    RIP a word of wisdom. If you don't want people coming down on you at every turn try not to sound so happy when you talk about how shitty this team is. It's ok to be pessimistic in short bursts, but when you do it on every post, and furthermore sound f*cking delighted the browns are in this state your going to draw the ire of the fanbase here. Just a friendly hint from your neighborhood inspecta.....

    I am not delighted at all, it is sickening. I just tell the truth, which angers people. We have a classic 5 year rebuilding program. Listen, I hope in year 2-3 we see some aspect of "greatness" from Mangini we saw say from past great coaches during the early years, but right now it is the long road. We might as well travel it with are feet grounded in reality, not fantasy.

    That means no "oh, we have done such a great job with 2nd day draft picks lately" stuff needs to go. Guys like Hall,Rucker,Francies,Davis must be treated as nobodies because they are.

    Vets like Willliams must be treated as busts, because that is how they have played here.

    Reality isn't a hard way to travel. You have to accept your place in football right now.

    Yeah...I'm not sure that's what "angers" people, dude.

  • @inspecta said:

    That really sucks about Harrison. I can't stress that enough. The kid really needed to get the reps in practice and in games to get caught up with Lewis and get some serious PT this year. Although this isn't Romeo so he might still get PT when he gets healthy. Let's hope that this is the case

    Did they ever announce what his injury was?

    Man, how tempting it is to comment on this...

    ...Browns QB Derek Anderson is known for his loosy-goosy way of approaching life, but he wants to make it well known that it doesn't affect the way he looks at his job. "I wouldn't say I'm goofy," he said. "I take pride in what I do. I just like to enjoy it when I'm on the field. I think (coach Eric Mangini) understands that."...

    They didn't say goofy, they said loosy-goosy. 🙄

    Ahh well, so training camp ends as expected. DA looks a little better in camp and Quinn a little better in games.

    Now, aren't we happy we spent all of this time debating?!

  • If DA is looking good, then we might want to question how good our secondary is.

  • @shepwrite said:

    Strangely enough, I think the whole damn thing comes down to one game against one of the league's best defenses.

    For shep to even consider this QB race equal, you know Quinn is getting his ass kicked by Anderson for the third year in a row.

    Thanks for the update Mr. "90% chance DA gets traded before April" Guy.

    Sorry but Shep has always been a "competition" guy. Big deal.

  • 4:12:45 pm Browns QB Brady Quinn has thrown four straight short passes to RB Jamal Lewis in the two-minute drill, but hasn't shown accuracy on tosses more than 20 yards throughout camp. He just overthrew Josh Cribbs long.

    this competition was orchestrated only to appease Randy Lerner and BQ Nation.

    special thanks to OBR for reporting (making up shit) that said Quinn had the "inside track". That kept things interesting in the offseason at least (and kept those subscribers coming back for more).

    You know, that, "I just tell the truth" line is one that Rich and Tom V. used quite often.

    Although I agree, RIP sounds much more educated (or at least sober) than Rich did in the majority of his posts.

    What angers people, RIP, is not... "that you tell the truth..." but rather... "that you tell your version of the truth as though its gospel with a holier-than-thou attitude."

  • @jadbf said:

    If it is, he's shown way more restraint than the Tom V. I know.....I'd expect a huge blow out soon then.

    I've been on these boards for 12 to 15 years, and I don't remember who Tom V. is... can you remind me?

  • I would like to know who Tom V is as well........

    Yeah, I mean, it's not like Anderson has played like crap since about week 12 of the 2007 season or anything....

    That wouldn't have anything to do with them opening up the QB competition in camp under a new coach.

    Hey, apparently I was right... the reference to Tom V. is actually a reference to G H O U L I E. Because I actually typed the G name, and the message board sensor changed it to Tom V.

    I'm sure it had nothing to do with trying to field the best team in order to, you know, win some football games.
