    And believe me when I say you have to pay through the nose through "donations" just to get on the list to "maybe" get decent season tickets for which they then charge an arm & a leg. Too many body part missing for my taste, so I look to make a deal for individual tickets via the internet.

    All that money. So little results.

  • Here is a survey for this week.  Give your answers or opinions:

    1.  Do you see the Browns making any kind of trade of their top draft pick.  If so,  what would be the nature of the trade?

    2. It has been revealed that Justin Field has been diagnosed with Epilepsy.    How do you feel this should affect his draft status?

    3. Former Browns  Safety TJ Ward has officially retired.   What do you think about that?

    4.  Adrian Peterson is still out looking for an NFL gig.  Should a team sign him, or should he just retire?

    5.  In one publication,  Johnny Manziel was named the worst draft pick in Browns history.   Agree?  Disagree?  Or who would you give that label too?

    6.  In Europe,  about a dozen of the top money  European soccer teams are trying to form a "Super League",  where they just play each other, and make their own TV deals, and, of course, try to keep ALL the money.     Could you see something like that being attempted by any of the teams in the major  North American Sports Leagues?  Where say all the "Big market" teams, join together and say  "we don't need all these small market teams,  let's just us 10-12  teams  form a league and play each other and  keep all the piles of cash"?

    5......lots of bad draft picks...i agree with all of them that was stated....i have to say, the worse trade in pro sports, in my opinion, at least as far as the browns, was mike oliphant for byner....one of the worse trades ever in pro sports...well, maybe not as bad when the cubs traded lou brock to saint louie for for for...well i don't even know who for....but it could not have been good because the cubs were still shitty during that era....

    This COVID year they only lost to Bama and finished #4 overall, so they actually got results better than before they opened the new "House That Johnny Built". Johnny's best was #5 with a win @ Bama. They got screwed out of the final 4. ND had no business there with a season ending loss.
