Browns-Titans Game 4 Preview

October 4, 2014 Mike Leave a comment

What: Cleveland Browns @ Tennessee Titans

When: Sunday 1 pm

Vegas Odds: Browns (+2) OVER/UNDER- 44

The Titans and Browns both enter this game with one win apiece. The Titans are coming off an embarrassing 41-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts where Andrew Luck and Co. beat the brakes off of Tennessee in every facet of the game. Charlie Whitehurst threw for 177 yards with a pick and a TD and was sacked 3 times. The Titans leading rusher was… Whitehurst… with… 40 yards. Delanie Walker had 5 catches for 84 yards and a TD.

The Browns are coming off their bye week after losing on a last second field goal vs. the Baltimore Ravens. Brian Hoyer threw for 290 yards and a TD and posted a 127 QB rating. The Baby Backs Terrance The Towson Tiger West and Isaiah Crowell rushed for 91 yards collectively and 2 touchdowns. Andrew Hawkins had 7 catches for 87 yards.

WHAT TO WATCH FOR:

Did the bye week help our injured players?

Mainly Ben Tate and Jordan Cameron. Admittedly the Ben Tate injury hasn’t hurt the Browns TOO much but Jordan Cameron’s lingering AC joint has made him a non factor so far this season. In the Ravens game he finished with 1 catch on 2 targets. The Browns desperately need to get the “Pro Bowl Pass Catcher” heavily involved in the offense. I think (hope) he has a big game.

Our Cornerbacks

O, our cornerbacks. The first three games for our CBs have been… to put this nicely… an absolute nauseating, repulsive, sickening display of football. Puke-worthy. Now I’m not going to sit here and harp on Justin Gilbert’s early struggles. He’s a rookie. A rookie who has had his first three games in the NFL come against Super Bowl winning quarterbacks. Rookie cornerbacks struggle. He’s not going to come in right away and be Darrelle Fucking Revis. It’ll take some time. (And spare me the Kyle Fuller talk. It’s unfair to compare 2 different players on 2 different teams in 2 different systems with 2 different defensive personnel groupings. It’s lazy)

But what I will harp on is the play of Joe Haden. While Joe has had to match up against 3 elite pass catchers (Antonio Brown, Jimmy Graham, Steve Smith) he’s yet to prove that he’s been worth the big money contract that he signed in the offseason. He’s actually been statistically one of the worst cornerbacks in the league. Thankfully Tennessee doesn’t have these types of elite receivers. I’m expecting a big “Prove the doubters wrong” game from him. I need you Joe. Come home Joe. I miss you. This track goes out to you:

Johnny Manziel’s truck is for sale and it comes with his autograph. I need it. Time for a GoFundMe!

Bleacher Report–

Johnny Manziel has owned a few cars in the last several years. He caught parking tickets at Texas A&M in a Mercedes C-Class, tooled about Cleveland at least once in a 2014 Nissan TitanSL and, according to TMZ, reportedly purchased a 2015 Nissan GT-R. One of these has to go, and it would appear the Titan was part of a trade-in Manziel finagled to get the GT-R.

Manziel’s old ride could be your gain, however, as Airport Nissan of Cleveland is selling the truck online with a listed price of $45,720.

Yep, that’ll do just fine. This truck might as well be ours. In Bottlegate’s never ending quest to take over the Cleveland sports landscape we’ve come across the usual must have items but NOTHING tops Johnny Manziel’s signed Nissan Titan. We’re HUUUUGGEE Johnny Football fans at BG so this would just be the icing on the cake. I didn’t even know this existed five minutes ago and now I’ve never needed anything more in my life. Can you imagine whipping around East 9th with this baby? “See that sig right there on the dash? That’s Johnny Manziel’s, maybe you’ve heard of him. He’s only the most electrifying college football player ever, a Hollywood heartthrob, and a former Heisman Trophy winner.”

So this is what we’re gonna do. I’m gonna set up a GoFundMe project, and you’re gonna donate to it. It’s a win-win for everyone. You donate to a good cause and get the proverbial pat on the back, and I get a sweet ride. $20 equals a 10 minute ride in the truck; $50 equals an hour drive; $100 you can tailgate in the muni lot with the truck; $500 I’ll let you drive it and take a picture of the signature: $1,000 you can borrow the truck for a day.

Coolest parents ever leave their kids at home to go tailgate the Browns game

September 30, 2014 Mike Leave a comment

Cleveland.com– MAPLE HEIGHTS, Ohio — Three Maple Heights parents left five children unattended at a home on the 14000 block of Corrindon Avenue to tailgate at the Sept. 21 Browns game, police reports say.The children were between the ages of seven and 10.

A Maple Heights police officer went to the house around 2:45 p.m. after one of the children dialed 911 and hung up. The child told police he called because the group was having an argument.

The 9-year-old child told the officer that he and the other children had been at the house alone for several hours because their parents, 28-year-old Rashad Williams Sr., 28-year-old Shauntia Williams and 29-year-old Valerie Norris went to the Browns game to tailgate.

Coolest parents ever or coolest parents EVER? Are you kidding me, being alone for several hours with your buddies is probably the highlight of these kids’ young lives. I can’t even imagine the shenanigans I would’ve gotten into if I was left alone all day when I was 9. If this was me I’d spend my day doing a couple of things:

1. Search the house far and wide for any candy and smash it all. If there’s no candy I’d turn my sights to whatever pop was in the house.

2. See what kind of Rated R movies I could watch on HBO or Showtime (hopefully there’s nudity because seeing nudity when you’re 9 is like the coolest thing ever).

3. Build the most elaborate fort in the world. If you didn’t build forts when you were little you probably didn’t have many friends and/or grew up to like Lorde.

4. Order a pizza. While the pizza boy was outside my door I’d turn up the volume on the TV and have a mob movie playing in the background. When the pizza boy gave me ‘tude I’d have the movie perfectly sync up to seem like there were gunshots being fired. Ha! What a million dollar idea, don’t know how no one has ever thought of this.

And finally…

5. Empty my piggy bank onto my bedroom floor and swim around all of my change like I’m Scrooge McDuck. Anyone who says they didn’t dream of doing this while growing up is a flat out liar and someone you can’t trust.
