Joe should be coming up soon

And Joe Thomas was a real class of 2023 act.    Thank you Joe!      Good bye everyone.    

       -  See you again in 2024.

If you're a praying type of man, pray for no injuries.     Hope everyone has a great evening, especially those Browns faithful attending.

Damn, I've almost forgot totally about Tillman. He's definitely a guy I'm excited to see play. 

This should be a good year to have that  extra  home game with the reduced three preseason games.  Just not enough to properly look at everybody you would like to see in realistic game time simulation with  opposing players in different uniforms.   Special teams and backups included,  and you're the  only  game on TV to show off your players to the league.League.

︎ And then things  start getting going  real fast.  Get your  Fantasy Leagues  ready !

Why would we expect nothing less from the NY/NJ media headlines ?

Not only did the Jets trade E. Moore, still on his rookie deal. I had forgotten, The Browns also received a 3rd round pick that became WR Cedric Tillman from the Jets  

Browns play in five days. Wow.

So I run to the grocery store this morning, I'm flipping through the radio stations and stumble upon Morgan Wallen's song 'Last Chance' on a pop station of all things....

Horrible. 

Country music right now starts and stops at Chris Stapleton for me. 

I think it is ‘Last Night’…agree with you.  And it’s played over and over

It is the new “Country Pop” some call it “Hick Hop”- bringing in those fans

Country music star…He’s kicking @ss now.  

Anyone watching UFC 290…one of the best cards…great fights

Same here, I’m a dyed in the wool rock n roller and I have no idea who ZB is.

But to those who enjoy his music…carry on.
