The Browns Board

  • Here's something I never thought of, the Browns holding TC in the new HOF village. I like the idea that the Browns remain in NE Ohio, and will be utilizing an existing facility. Jimmah & Dee are already on the Hall of Fame Board of Directors. Makes sense to me.

  • That would be cool.

    Good to hear regarding the possible new location.

    As for Jimmy and Dee, maybe they'll move all the busts of Pittsburgh Stee-roids polluting the halls next to the urinals where they belong...

  • oh, that would be excellent. so close to our farm... about 15 minutes down the road

    That was a fun road trip I had visiting you and Canton Mike last year. You had the waitress at the Diner so focused on "well done but not too well done" that I almost got two 10s for a 5. I think you had her nervous that conversation was going to progress into "ma'am, how sweet is that sweetener?" And then when it was my turn to order - everything looked so good I just said something like "I'll take page 2 please."

    Tom, think of future road trips if TC is actually held here in Canton. Practically right in my own backyard with lots yet to do & places to go. It will be very interesting to see what happens, but it does seem the "TC in Columbus" rumors have gone away.

    That would be great Mike! I'd keep it more East because there's still large groups of fans in Erie, PA and throughout Western, NY. Those areas are losing some younger generations as front runner Steelheads. Rochester had as many as 4 Browns Backers clubs at 1 time back in the 90s while DirecTV kind of changed the need to assemble to watch Cleveland games at bar and grills. Modell also buried the franchise to impact the volume of BB Clubs.

    The Buffalo Bills moved the previous training camp from Fredonia to St John Fisher College in Pittsford, NY which is a suburb of Rochester. And why? To get/recruit as many Bills fans as they can from the biggest market closest to Buffalo in Upstate, NY that blends a ton of Giant, Jet, Cleveland and Pittsburgh fans.

    I'll be in charge of Old Leghumper, including a short road trip to the Thirsty Dog Taproom & Brewery in Akron. They also make some great root beer (non alcoholic) there too.

  • That sucks.. Practice used to be 2 miles down the road from Me at Lakeland university.. Wish they would come back...

  • Speaking of which OTA #1 begins this Tu. May 23.

  • It doesn't really matter to me. Is there something wrong with Berea?

  • Nothing wrong with Berea, but I think once the HOF Village is built the NFL will want to show off its $600 million new toy.

  • Yeah... mixed feelings here. Berea's been a good host and TC being held there is a nice economic prize for them.

    it's all about bringing the big crowds into the HOF, I bet anybody attending camp from outside of canton would also tour the hall.
