It sounds like a blast and i'd love to do it. I'm going to say that it will be hard to convince my wife to go out of town that weekend as our anniversary is the day before.

I know Leisher is a closet Browns fan and he secretly really wants to go, but he would never. LOL

Do the Steelers and Cobra Commanders play this year in DC?

I would love to attend a game and meet you in person, and bonus having Stranger along. It'd be a fun road trip with him.

However, as I've said elsewhere, this year is a very big question mark for me. There are a lot of dominos in line to fall and I don't know when it's going to happen, but it could be anytime. Making plans right now is a challenge.

Yes, November 10th.

I was thinking Browns, cuz, uh, the tickets would be cheaper. :) But I'm free that weekend. Let me check with my brother.

As of April 2024, Cooper DeJean is projected to be the first white starting cornerback in the NFL in over 20 years. DeJean, a star player from Iowa, could play anywhere from safety to nickel to outside corner for the Philadelphia Eagles.
That's like... super white.

GOOD. I still say it was bullshit, despite my deep personal hatred for it having been on DirectTV.

I'm happy the lawyers lost. I'm not a fan of class action lawsuits. I like the concept, but the way the money is usually paid out sucks ass.

I'd bet real money that if we had all the records and went back, we could prove the DirectTV exclusivity deal was a bad move by the NFL. I think they left a lot of money on the table and pissed off fans.

Agreed, last year was the first it was on YouTube TV and i got it right away and loved it. Already paid for this year and probably would've been a customer for longer if it wasn't on DirectTV.

Exactly, but to be fair to them, YouTubeTV wasn't around yet, but they still had better options than the terrible DirectTV.

We've all heard of Jerry's world, well check out Jimmy's World. Looks like the Browns are going to be a dome team come 2029 and NOT in downtown Cleveland but rather in the Brook Park suburb.

Leisher, did you catch the League of Legends cameo at 1:40? :mrgreen:

Esports, Taylor Swift, and WWE? This new stadium is going to be housing things people actually want to see despite the Browns also playing there!

Jokes aside, that stadium concept looks pretty amazing.
