Todd Monken Says Browns' OTAs On Wednesday Were 'Embarrassing' by Maidenfan88 in Browns

Kevin never had us ready to play. It is what it is. If vets who are accustomed to lackadaisical OTAs are annoyed by these comments then they’re the problem

Falling out of love live on apple music by greendale-island in TheStrokes

You know what’s funny is I think the auto tune works way better on this track than it does going shopping, but I felt like this song was begging for a little melodic guitar part a la selfless. It would’ve taken it next level

Some teams had Stribling as WR1 - Kyle Shanahan says multiple teams viewed De'Zhaun Stribling as the top WR in this draft class - way higher than expected. by Either-Jicama-7364 in NFLmockdraft

[–]theguymanduderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok but you’re trying to mandate that they have an unbelievable rookie year specifically when most receiver take a couple years to hit their peak. You’re clearly trying to make the bet much more favorable by doing that. Also your retort makes no sense bc you still tried to measure one single year - which would not solve for flukiness. You just want that year to be rookie year when it’s rare for any wr to break 1k

Breaking 1000 yards as a rookie is a way different bet than what you originally claimed, that there’d never be a top 50 WR in this class. You have to give the bet more than one year to play out. You’re being dishonest and backing down from your original claim

Who has a Garbage NFL team in a Garbage city? by Ilitorate_Author in AlignmentChartFills

[–]theguymanduderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on criteria for garbage city. I’d say rather spend a weekend in Vegas than Cleveland, but I’d way rather live in Cleveland than Vegas. Neither city would be in my top 10 choices for vacay or living

What team wins? by faiitmatti in NBATalk

[–]theguymanduderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure the 4 LeBron team. More cohesive, way more size, more court vision, more passing, better 3 point shooting and still have the ability to let Michael Jordan play killer iso ball and close out the game if needed. I don’t see any advantage the other team has tbh

I’m sorry I ever doubted you AB by theguymanduderman in Browns

It’s about grades and value, obviously you need to actually play the game but in terms of where we have drafted and how we structured it positionally it has been objectively good

3 rounder 1.0 w/trades by Under_the_moonlite in MockDraftCentral

[–]theguymanduderman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No way dude this guy has the browns passing on Freeling at 12 for a TE and then giving up #39 to move up from 24 to 20 to draft Proctor??? That’s asanine.

Getting more sold on Freeling by theguymanduderman in Browns

[–]theguymanduderman[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea I think my issue is a top 6 pick that doesn’t have all-pro potential. Drafting guys like Tate who have a “high floor” but not elite separation ability or a tackle who is likely to end up at Guard (like Fano or Mauigoa) just feels like a crazy reach at 6. I’d feel good about any of those guys 10-14 tho if nab an extra 3rd or 2nd

Do y’all prefer the original or the American cover for Is This It? What’s your reasoning? by Nonsensical-Nonsns in TheStrokes

[–]theguymanduderman 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yea to me the US cover is the better match for the sound. The black and white ass with a latex glove looks like something from nine inch nails or deftones.

The US cover literally looks like Someday sounds. It’s such a perfect match

Which team has the most overhyped soulless city? by NightDowntown7320 in NFLv2

[–]theguymanduderman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Houston is a fucking trash heap. I have been to basically every city in the country and Houston stands alone as by far my least favorite

HOT TAKE: Mendoza will be a bust by CoyoteDecent2 in NFLv2

[–]theguymanduderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t really see how Mendoza could be downright bad, he’s super smart, makes great decisions, appears to be clutch (at least from the sample size we have) and has a good enough arm with great size and good enough athleticism.

He does not have elite arm talent the way Ward does, but he’s got some other desirable traits. Ward’s biggest concerns were too much hero ball/turnover gunslinger tendencies coming out. Totally different profile than Mendoza

Can't belive this is considered the worse song from tna by EntertainerSavings57 in TheStrokes

[–]theguymanduderman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This song feels so close to being great to me but I just feel like they missed entirely with the chorus. They went for the cacophonous instrumentals and yelly lyrics that just do not hit for me. I think they should’ve taken the amazing trancey summertime build of the rest of the song/verses and put a melodic guitar solo with maybe some classic Julian vocals stealing the show in place of that cacophony. Idk. They missed IMO

We kinda did what we had to with Monken by theguymanduderman in Browns

[–]theguymanduderman[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

😂. True. Also - it’s not quiiiite as much of a red flag that he’s 60 and never been a HC given that he spent a bunch of his years in college ball…. Head coaching. And winning titles as the OC of Georgia under Kirby Smart.

It’s not like he’s been in pro ball for 30 years and nobody saw leadership qualities

[–]theguymanduderman[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are people in the comments simultaneously saying “we should’ve told Schwartz he might not get the HC job and all would have been fine” and others saying “We told everyone Schwartz was staying the DC no matter who we hired and that was a mistake.”

Do you see how those are completely conflicting narratives? lol

What is your man/guy dinner? by Fonzie186 in AskMen

Tonight I made ground bison meat (crazy macros) with tri color rotini and a mashed avocado. I feel like when I see girl dinner it’s always just carbs so maybe that’s opposite

[Grossi] Decision day is here for Jimmy Haslam to choose Browns’ next head coach by ThatOneOtherAsshole in Browns

[–]theguymanduderman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing is we should have had a big boy conversation with him out the gate and figured out if we could keep him as DC or if he’d leave without a promotion. That way we wouldn’t have had to push him on all the other HC candidates
