THE BROWNS BOARD

The Las Vegas Raiders


The Gipper

Recommended Posts

Done deal, guys...

 

Owners' vote was 31-1... the one holdout was Miami.

 

Not too surprising. By now Oakland (for that matter so did San Diego) Knew the NFL's ground rules. Build a new stadium or we're moving. will be interesting how long the Las Vegas Gamblers last until Davis gets the wanderlust.

 

In no particular order.

 

  • The "mods" do not have the authority to ban me. They never did. I come here as I see fit. I come here when I choose and I take leave when I decided. I don't know how fucking stupid you can be. Don't you cunts ever get tired of crying to the "mods"? "Ooh, Ghoolie is putting words on a message board. He keeps saying shit I don't want to hear, and it keeps coming true". "Boo hoo, Ghoolie keeps pissing in our faces, save us Hoorta, save us Zomblow" "Waaaaa, booo hooooooooo, the Browns are gonna show YOU, Ghoolie, just wait until you see what happens." " We are doing things that nobody can understand....except us fucktards who don't understand anything" Fucking morons.

Fuck you and your fair-weather bullshit. You are rooting for a fraud. A fucking imitation. The Browns play in Baltimore and are called the Ravens. Modell was the Browns. He still is.

 

 

Regarding why you're still here, Mr. Board Owner (& I consider him a friend) gave you an unlimited "Get out of Jail Free" card. Try to understand- that outranks what any of the Mods opinions of your posting is.

 

 

But seriously, for me, understand, for me, it is heaven. A few thoughts

 

  • As an environmental scientist the desert is a veritable historical account of creating, chemistry and geology. It appeals greatly to that part of my brain.
  • As biker, the roads and paths are phenomenal. Nice jaunts to LA, Phoenix and more
  • As a musician, the opportunities for me to play, something I really love, are abundant like no place on earth. Tons of high end restaurants for accordion work, clubs and bars for guitar work, and, perhaps I will take up a recent invite to audition for a new Cirque show slated for 2019.
  • Clean Air, no nasty pollution, factories. No snow. No rap culture turning everything to shit.
  • Hill climbing, dune buggies, zip lines, fishing, lake meade, the Colorado River,
  • Food mecca

The casinos and events? Icing on the cake, but not what I love most about Vegas.

 

We own a 19 acre slice. To me, it is God's country. Florida? I hope it cracks off and sails out to sea. I would shit on the beach, that's about it.

 

Las Vegas is in the middle of a fucking desert. It's one positive attribute is there's no bugs. If your mantra is "water is the new gold" well buy a damn clue- there's not enough water in the Colorado River to sustain unlimited growth. So get your sanitary engineering in place- just like the "Dune" novels, and figure out how to recycle toilet water that the populace will agree to. If Isis ever blew the Hoover Dam- Vegas, Henderson and a bunch of other cities would be up shit creek without a paddle. Ever drive down to Lake Meade and take a look at "Ring around the Lake" where the water level has dropped at least 15' feet if not more? Think that's an accident? You had better pray for a California once every 30 years rain event turning into a all-time snow event in the Rockies. FWIW, my neighbor across the street was a session musician in Vegas, got bored and moved back to Ohio.

 

Yup, no snow and lots of 115 degree days in the summer. Take your pick. To switch a quote I heard about Wyoming. "The two prettiest sights in Nevada are Wheeler Peak- and seeing Las Vegas in your rear view mirror."

YAWN. Your life is exciting as Hue Jackson's playbook.

 

De-Nile, as usual. My excitement is getting the hell out of that fantasy land driving up the road to Zion, Bryce or the Grand Canyon. You can't fool mother nature Tom, just go ahead and deny the Colorado River doesn't even reach the Gulf of California anymore, or 90% of the Colorado watershed flows EAST of the Rockies. Well, one of our restaurant guys loved that summer heat so much, they found him dead out in the desert on one of those glorious 115 degree days. Sure as hell, some folks like glitz, and love the allure of gambling. Now that there's Casinos in almost every state, why would you even want to spend money on a plane ticket to lose even more of it? In South Dakota, you can even play slots in gas stations. I'll be on the corner selling Aquafina to you at $10 a bottle in 5 years. I'm also a proponent of IDSA- International Dark Sky Association. You remember when God told Abraham, "look up in the sky, and count the stars if you can?" In Vegas, easy, one, two, three... ten.

  • Art Modell moved the Browns. He moved them to Baltimore. They were the Baltimore Browns and now are called the Ravens. If Modell didn't fucking move, then what exactly did Modell do to piss you cunt pimples off? Explain that to me. What exactly did Modell do?

HE MOVED THE FUCKING TEAM.

YOU HAD NO FUCKING TEAM FOR 5 YEARS. WHY?

BECAUSE HE MOVED THE FUCKING TEAM

Because just the attempt to move them was enough to piss us off. Look, if a guy shoots at you, but does not kill you does that mean you forgive him for trying to kill you?

Hello!!

There is no honor in being a Browns fan.

Only to a person that has no honor to begin with. YOU apparently only place worth on a thing if it is winning. You sound like Donald Trump. But you are coming off like him. You are a being a loser with no honor...and it has nothing to do with the team you follow winning or losing.

  • Living in another city and rooting for the Browns? I do it now. So what? I am not switching allegiance because I love the Raiders...........but I WILL LOVE the Las Vegas Raiders........................... BIG BIG BIG difference. We will be moving to Vegas when the time is right, The combination of the greatest city, climate, scenery and city on Earth, with the addition of a fresh, new football team...................will be a rebirth for me.

Well: A. it is not the "greatest city". It is simply a city that has grown beyond its mean. B. Climate? Uh, no. If you wanted the best climate you should be jumping on the bandwagon for a city back in San Diego. Searing 110 degree heat is no sane person's idea of a great climate. C. Scenery? Well, its not too bad there, but to see the good scenery you have to get out of Nevada and go a couple of hundred miles into Utah or Arizona. D. "Fresh, new football team"? No, its an old football team that has just moved. You want a fresh new team, wait for expansion.

So, I guess I have to ask this? Which part of it is important to you: The "Las Vegas" part, or "The Raiders" part? For us, the important part of the equation is the "Cleveland". It could be Browns, Bulldogs, Gladiators, Rams, Laughing Hyenas, or whatever. The name is merely incidental to the city/region that you are a native of.

The Cleveland Browns have one 1 NFL championship.

Well, so much for any credibility you may have even had with your first grade teacher, you can't even count.

The Browns have only won 1 title that I can personally remember. Maybe that is what you meant.

Fuck you and your fair-weather bullshit. You are rooting for a fraud. A fucking imitation. The Browns play in Baltimore and are called the Ravens. Modell was the Browns. He still is.

Digging a deeper hole. Modell was the Browns. Sure. Paul Brown and Mickey McBride had nothing to do with creating. The league thought so much of Art Modell that they decided he was too much of an icon for them and asked him to leave and forced him to sell his team.

Maybe Steven Biscotti is the Browns...by your method of thinking.

And fair weather? Yep, all of us just jumped ship and abandoned our team when things got tough. OOH, wait a minute...that wasn't us...that was YOU. DOH!

Nothing wrong with any of this. It still does not mean you are not a FRAK.

And just because Stan is giving you a pass does not mean he is going to FRAK his way into being a Raiders fan. After all, he is the owner of The Browns Board....not "The Raiders Board".

Temporary patterns, Already on the rise.

If you're talking about the average global temperature, you're 100% correct. If the Ross ice shelf in Antarctica collapses, cities like New York and Tampa are in big trouble. So yeah, Vegas is up high enough that won't affect you. Speaking of high temperatures, Vegas has tied it's record of 117 twice since 2005. Let's go for 120!! Um, get an A/C failure on a day like that, people are gonna die. So much for "great climate".

Literally laughing my ass off at the ladies who are all wet because the Raiders are moving to Vegas.

 

Was Oakland too hardcore for you?

 

Not man enough to hang by your childhood team come hell or high water?

 

I don't know how to say this other than ... You're just on the wrong football board.

 

Ghoolie is the biggest pussy on earth.

 

Period.

Did I miss a banning?

 

 

 

 

You seem to know a lot for a guy with 14 posts...

Apparently you missed the last 20 years of Ghoolie the fatass Raven faggot getting banned from every Browns forum in existence during that time except this one because he is a dumbass Ravens troll. Glad I could help you get caught up.

Wonderful climate ......if you're a snake or a lizard.

 

No wonder why no one seriously settled the deep south or west until the invention of good HVAC or water pipelines.

Scorpions.... you forgot scorpions. My neighbor lived in Vegas for many years, moved back to Ohio. On my return from there back one May I commented about springtime in the desert "you can almost imagine some green in all that brown."

 

As I told Ghoolie all those desert towns are an artificial oasis- based on a very limited supply of water. It was little wonder when I was there right after 9\11 they had National Guard armed with automatic weapons keeping an eye on anyone who wanted to cross the Hoover Dam. (They've since diverted the road at great expense.) Instead of symbolically taking down the World Trade Center buildings Al-Qaeda could have done way more & lasting damage taking out that dam.

If they had run into the Hoover Dam with planes however, only the planes would have been obliterated. I don't think the dam would have been that badly scathed.

Yeah... but it's a dry heat...

 

You want hot? Try Houston in August... 100 deg F plus 90% humidity...

Been there! They offered me a job in the Baytown steel plant....no thanks.

 

So the difference between Lost Wages, NV and Houston is one is self basting :lol:

Well having been born on the swamp that was reclaimed as Beaumont (there are no beautiful mountains anywhere near it), Houston has nothing on that place. It's really SW La.-even has a damn cajun name.

I put Beaumont in the rear view mirror in 1959. Been back maybe 5 times since, last time being maybe 30+ years ago. Gumbo's in Georgetown is about as close as I get to creole/cajun these days.

If Mexico has a Margaritaville, then Beaumont surely qualifies as Mosquitoville in the US.

Oakland? Look who's talking. What, don't you like Baltimore?

 

The Vegas Raiders are not the Oakland Raiders.

 

Best Climate in the USA......................... funny, nobody retires up North. Florida? LMAO. Zomblow dates a lot of hot women in Naples. He takes them home and pulls on their tits until the wrinkles come out.

A lot of people retire up north, simply by staying home. As I have gotten older the cold, ice, snow can sort of get to me. My biggest worry is falling on ice. So I understand why people go south.

If it were not for the fact that my kids are here I would retire to southern Ireland. (FYI, they have palm trees there)

 

As for Zombo pulling on old ladies tits....yep, I can believe that.

Many people working or retired have started moving away from "Zika-ville" and other areas for various reasons and are moving "back home".

My sister "retired" from Fort Lauderdale Fla. after 35+ years of being there to back home here in Northeast Ohio.

I was (very) glad Cleveland was first of all able to get another NFL team and second to keep their name and colors (even though the Browns have been a big disappointment since 99 and nowhere near the Browns of old). Too bad for Oakland that apparently that is not going to happen here and we will see the Las Vegas Raiders. I think when a team pulls up stakes from a city and moves to another city let them get another logo/mascot and new team colors and leave the old behind. If Oakland would ever get another NFL team it just seems surreal they would have to get a different name than the Raiders.

Going to be a very very long time before Oakland could get another NFL team (just like San Diego) but I agree with what you're saying. The Raiders belong in Oakland.
