Uhhh, this is the Tribe section of the board.

@gmyers said:I have been saying this for about the last 4 years. I think the NFL should adapt this rule: Any team (NO MATTER YOU PAST SUCCESS) should be fined and there needs to be an internal investigation on why this team has been failing for a stretch of 8 years. If your team is a combined .400 winning percentage for that period of time then this rule is enforced immediately after the season. Just because the Browns were 10-6 does not give them a pass on this rule. Again this is a stretch for 8 years. Obviously this stems from my frustration with the Browns organization since they have been back in the league. I dont understand how we continue to be this bad year after year. Everyone knows the finer details on why we are so bad so save those replies back to this post. This is the NFL not the MLB or the NBA were its extremely tough to compete with the Lakers, or Yankees for example because of salary caps or free agents rather play in a “big market.” I know this rule will probably never become a reality because of legal issues but my g-d this is a joke. According to this rule the Browns, Lions and Raiders will be fined and an internal team of investigators will be entering Berea and Oakland after the 2009 campaign. I think we all agree these teams are not trying to do whatever they can to put a consistent competitive product on the field or they don’t have that right personal to run a professional sports organization. Its time we hold these owners etc.. to mediocre football. The fans and these cities DEMAND IT! The penalties are as follows: Owner will fined 10 million dollars The commissioner will give a warning and if the teams do not have a .550 winning percentage in the 5 years they will be forces to sell 50 percent of their team. I have more rules but you get the gist….. WTF

@beefjerky said:my friend was talking about this as well, but it was a mock interview with(meaning some guy is imitating him) eric wright, there was some really funny things in it but I don't remember anymore. Get high again so you can remember duh.

@atenears said:He's satisfied me on his hands-off approach. big deal that he has other interests, the fact that he has another sports franchise will only add to his experience. He is only 46 years old, I didn't realize that. I think he is committed. Perhaps going 10-6 last season was worst than us going 6-10, as it provided slack in the line, but I'm confident that Randy can balance a knee-jerk reaction against going stale for too long. I personally don't have a big problem with Savage, but I think the players need to be pushed more and I'm afraid Crennel has planed out. I'd allowed Savage to find another coach, cut some dead weight contracts, and go full steam ahead in Free Agency and the draft. You are a real sucker atenears if you think that lerner is committed to this team keep dreaming man you guys that buy all that crap need to learn from the past i have no confidence in lerner at all in the man or the people he will hire/promote i would love for him to fix things but he is not capable of tying his own shoe when it comes to football personnel and i expect nothing to really change where it counts..in management mark my words names will change but the clubs inept organization will not its part of the owners dna and lerners dna is weaksauce...with lots of McCash from suckers that buy the change is coming routine and blindly fill his coffers like zombies..if he proves me wrong i will be the first to stick my foot in my mouth but nothing is getting better for a very long time..

\ said:Jim Brown was the best running back in the game ever..........those of us who had the joy to see him game by game.............are still in awe..........incomparable and that includes Barry Sanders number two................and all the number three's I don't think you are saying anything people here, or around the NFL don't already know.

Only reason I have said BE dropped a sure TD is because everything I have read said it was a sure TD (articles not on this board). I watched the first 3 quarters but I had to miss the 4th quarter. Most of what I have seen have blamed the loss on the entire team. But, I have seen many say that DA played poorly. He didn't, DA played well and if BE catches the easy one then DA plays a great game. And yes that TD that BE did catch was a great catch and yes it does mean alot more than a TD in preseason by BQ that steptoe stole from the DB. They were both sure ints that became TDS though if that was the comparision you were making. BQ is the starter now, so I will get behind BQ. Hope he has half as good as people think he is. I expect growing pains and a learning curve. Though the advantage he has I guess is that if he does as good as DA did last year his first 8 games he won't have the defenses figuring him out until next year.
