Cleveland Browns (official thread of Masochism 2015)

According to Forbes, his net worth is about 2 billion more than Haslam. (well, 1.8, fine)

Fair enough but I was kinda implying that spending 100M+ on Basketball salaries (this includes luxury tax) plus another 130M+ on Football salaries might put someone in the poor house quickly even with 4B on paper, plus after having to purchase the franchise for more than the 2B Tennessee Jerra paid...

Its all about cash flow...

Gilbert continues to place bets on the city of Detroit, spending $1.8 billion to buy and renovate more than 75 downtown buildings as he works to create a tech and entertainment hub in the Motor City.

Well, if he can revitalize Detroit... then the Browns really need him.

The only nice part of Detroit is in Canada.

I wonder if the Browns would be any better today if Chip had signed that contract instead of leaving the boys at the altar or, should I say, motel room.

Could he be ready for the playoffs?

Please, Clowns. Don't draft any Buckeyes. I don't want to see any careers ruined.

While I would love to see Bosa in Cleveland if it would mean he could shine and help turn the program around, I am nervous about that too. Not talking crap because even as a Bengals fan, I prefer to see Ohio beat up the rest of the AFC North. To wit, I want to see you deal a death blow to Shitsburgh tomorrow, however unlikely that may be.

And think of it like this...ending up in Tennessee would be even worse. And you know they would take him #1 overall because they took Mariotta last year.

Ahhhhhhh.. such comfort.. after today .. we'll be
coachless, GM-less, owner brainless, QB less, WR less, 3-13 and 34 guys out with concussions
go Browns

 

[AuTX Buckeye]

I know the source but sounds like we'll end up with another shitty coach after all the top choices say no thanks

The commitment to chasing Gase before hiring a G.M. underscores that the G.M. in Cleveland isn’t nearly as strong as General Managers elsewhere. It also confirms that owner Jimmy Haslam and team president Alec Scheiner have much more involvement in football operations than perhaps they should.
