2014 is going to be a great year for the Browns.

Trotskilicious · 02-04-2014, 09:27 PM

oh man they could get kirk cousins that'll set the franchise right

Banana · 02-04-2014, 09:55 PM

Disgusted how the draft has been moved back to May this year making an already long off season all the longer.

Eulogy · 02-09-2014, 09:57 PM

should be an openly gay dude on a roster next year. pretty cool.

duovamp · 02-09-2014, 10:26 PM

Kind of surprised it wasn't RG3 or Rodgers.

Eulogy · 02-09-2014, 10:39 PM

RG3 really?

the rodgers rumors seem pretty solid. that would be awesome. i've always liked him but i'd like him even more if he were an open gay. he's pretty dreamy. in a weird, backwoods sorta way.

duovamp · 02-09-2014, 11:26 PM

I dunno, if I gave any answer to that question it'd basically mean I'm assuming and admitting I subscribe to the notion that there is a stereotypical "gay male" that someone resembles. I guess probably because RG3 is really smart and sensitive. And he has pretty eyes.

duovamp · 02-09-2014, 11:27 PM

Also COME ON.

duovamp · 02-09-2014, 11:29 PM

Also if anyone here has the time this is probably one of the absolute best things I've read this year.

Heartbreaking at Gilliam, gets pretty deep at Cam, slam-fucking-dunk at RG3.

duovamp · 02-09-2014, 11:56 PM

Oh Cleveland...

The teams score the same number of points.

you really are something sometimes

Eulogy · 02-10-2014, 12:52 AM

What don't you get?

Eulogy · 02-10-2014, 12:53 AM

Overtime does not last forever. Ties are rare, but it's fairly easy to understand how they happen.

Bread Regal · 02-10-2014, 12:53 AM

you know what

Eulogy · 02-10-2014, 12:54 AM

No, I don't.

Bread Regal · 02-10-2014, 12:54 AM

i thought sudden death was a thing for every football game. jesus christ.

Trotskilicious · 02-10-2014, 01:05 AM

it is, but if they never score in fifteen minutes of gametime then it results in a hilarious tie

Bread Regal · 02-10-2014, 01:06 AM

in round robin tournaments, such as the epl, draws are indeed commonplace. in knockout tournaments, it goes into two 15 minute overtimes, a penalty shootout and if still no winner is declared, sudden death.

it seemed inconceivable to me that if a sport has a period that is called "sudden death" then they play until a winner is declared.

how is it done in the playoffs, hot shot?

Bread Regal · 02-10-2014, 01:06 AM

what im trying to say is that the words "sudden death" imply something completely different than what the nfl does.

Trotskilicious · 02-10-2014, 01:09 AM

also nfl overtime is not sudden death anymore

Trotskilicious · 02-10-2014, 01:10 AM

and why are you mad at me, i'm just telling you how it works

in the playoffs they play until someone scores

nfl ot is no longer sudden death, the other team gets to get a crack at possession after a score. so it rewards going for a touchdown instead of winning the coin toss and getting a FG

i guess with the lack of sudden death we may have a playoff ot game taht goes on for hours and hours

Bread Regal · 02-10-2014, 01:12 AM

im not mad at you. im mad at eulogy an his terse snarkiness. snarky terseness.

Bread Regal · 02-10-2014, 01:13 AM

i would love to see that though.

get every benchwarmer out there as everyone starts to collapse from exhaustion.

Trotskilicious · 02-10-2014, 01:14 AM

it's hard for him to fathom an individual that doesn't intuitively understands the interworkings of a ridiculously complicated sport

i know, it would be epic

i do think the rules work like if team a scores a TD in ot, then team B responds with a score then it becomes sudden death

but i am not an expert on the nfl rules book

Bread Regal · 02-10-2014, 01:15 AM

gotta love real football though

rule #1: kick d'ball into d'goal
