  1. To a certain extent, I DO believe the Browns need some WRs who can actually catch the football. While I stated by belief in the talent-level of Mayfield, he did throw a number of balls against the Packers that should have been caught. Then, I think............................... Duper and Clayton weren't HOF WRs but Marino made them look pretty darn good. The Pats have had a number of WRs that never made great WRs but Brady made them look pretty darn good (rotating Slot Receivers, as the main example) Rogers is a HOF QB whose WRs seemingly, make great catch after great catch. However, is it that these QBs actually put the ball in precisely the right spot, at precisely the right time, at precisely the right speed and rotation that allow the WRs to make seemingly great catches? Maybe Baker cannot do any of the above and that is why the WRs drop so many passes. Just a thought On non-physical competencies: I fear that - whatever Mayfield may make up next year by being physically fit - will be lost by the lack of material between the ears. Remember he is 0-7 on possible game winning drives. That goes back to the Chiefs' playoff game last year. He just didn't do it then or since when the game is on the line. I shudder to think that big-mouth Rex Ryan was right about him all these years.
  2. Same to you, Larry. Also to your Little Feat - lovin' wife! I take no pride in coming out of hibernation, only to blast the Browns. I'd like nothing better than for Mayfield to prove me wrong and for folks to tell me I was wrong, wrong, wrong. Lord knows, folks around here are laughing at me for predicting the Browns would be playing in the AFC Championship Game this year. PS Did the OBJ pickup remind you of the Andre Rison acquisition - the outcomes, at least. Health and Happiness in 2022
  3. OK here's a cheap shot from somebody who has been on a variety of Browns Boards since the Dark Days. Dorsey screwed up two ways, IMHO: Trading for OBJ and drafting Baker Mayfield. Baker may, or may not, have the arm and physical tools to be a top-tier NFL QB. However, he has little to nothing between the ears. If the Browns do or did extend him, I believe it is a mistake. Talk about his injuries all you want. He is WAY overhyped. MAYBE in the middle-third of starting QBs. Maybe in the bottom third. I just can't keep my feelings under wraps any longer FWIW, have a Happy and Healthy 2022 to all but - especially - to those who have been around since the aol days.
  4. I hope you're right? Ironically, I was in FL with my family and we were watching football with my brother-in-law - a huge Packers' fan. After watching the Baker-in-the-bathroom State Farm ad, my brother -in-law asked me, "why is a mediocre QB' getting these State Farm ads.....................just a reference to your earlier comment on how things look on the 'outside'
  5. Larry, what is you take RE: the Mayfield pick. Yes, Freddie was a big whiff, but do you think Mayfield's performance factored into this? I know he is young but - I wonder if Mayfield is a 'one (half-year) hit wonder? God.........................could asphole Rex Ryan be right about him? FWIW, I hate to see any continuity, once again, dissipate before fully formed.
  6. Man..........................Haslam or Snyder? Sad state of affairs. I doubt a 'Cowher-type' would be interested at this point. So..................back to Green Acres.
  7. Thanks. My wife and two 'kids' will be going. The price - alone - would keep me away. Plus, not very familiar with Harry Potter. They are. Thanks for the insight. I will pass it along
  8. I will be in Bradenton next week. We will be staying with my Brother-In-Law, arriving on Christmas Day and leaving on the evening of the 30th. Not sure how much free time I will have but I do know my family - minus me - will be going to some type of Harry Potter World in Orlando one day. Depending on when that is and depending on your schedule, I'd be happy to meet and buy you lunch. Let me know one way or the other. PS on Sunday, the 29, I will be stuck at a Packer's Bar unless I find something better to do - another possibility You have my email address. Perhaps phone number too
  9. Just him. He is a retread - an uninspiring one at that. Of course, winning changes everything!
  10. At a loss for words. Despite the miles between us, I always considered Stan to be a good friend. Whenever I traveled to Cleveland, he opened his house, etc. to me. Always a gracious host and a kind man. Stan, absolutely, loved his children God Bless Stan and his family
  11. Wow, Woody??????? I've read you on the Politics Board for quite a while and cant believe you can say/ask your rhetorical question.. "Either way, does Johnny deserve the benefit of the doubt here?" Truth doesn't matter to you any more (or any less)?
  12. Absolutely no reason why he shouldn't.
