How bout ‘Ol 12 Gauge here just putting on an absolute CLINIC? I don’t get excited very often but I’m absolutely shocked by this. In no universe did I ever think I’d see Josh McCown throwing down alley oops and crossing dudes like The Professor from the And 1 Mixtape Tour. Had no idea the guy had it in him. It’s so weird seeing the 12 year veteran QB (who’s white as snow) being the best basketball player in a gym of super talented NFL receivers and skill guys.

After listening to Josh’s interview this morning with Rizzo on The Really Big Show and seeing him ball, it’s so easy to root for a guy like him. Frankly, he might be my new favorite player.

Report: Browns are frontrunners to be on HBO’s Hard Knocks this summer

Hearing the #Browns are front-runners for next featured team on HBO Hard Knocks series.

Look, HBO Films does such a good job with Hard Knocks they can follow around a high school JV team and make it compelling, must see TV. Not sure how to feel about this though. On one hand it’ll be awesome for the Browns to have a national TV audience every Tuesday night on HBO… but on the other hand when’s the last time a team on Hard Knocks had a successful season (aside from the 2013 Bengals)?

I’m probably one of the few people who LOVED that little series “Road Tested” a few years ago, and this is would be about 500x better. SO SO many storylines with this team:

What the hell is going to happen with Johnny Manziel?
Can Justin Gilbert have a bounceback year after he underachieved in his rookie season?
Will they mention Josh Gordon?
Textgate
NEW UNIFORMS AND LOGOS
Jimmy Haslam

And these are just a fraction. Wait till after the draft and the time in between training camp when the NFL hype train wheels really start turning.

Every season of Hard Knocks always has that one guy who is great on camera and steals the show. Last year it was the Falcons Defensive Line coach Bryan Cox. Who could you see being this season’s Bryan Cox on the Browns? My vote is for Billy Winn, just seems like the type to sneak up on a rookie during an on screen interview and fart in his face. GREAT TV.

On that note, I’m all in on this. Great for blog material and I NEED to see Billy Winn farting on somebody’s face on camera. BRING HARD KNOCKS TO BEREA.

Browns make another move in free agency and sign Dwayne Bowe, we’re back baby!

Well there ya go, that’ll shut us up for a little while. Can’t be mad or bitch about this signing at all. Sure he’s probably not a 1,000 yard/10 touchdown receiver but Dwayne is still a productive player and still has a little something left in the tank. Just another weapon for Ol’ 12 Gauge McCown. Bowe, Hartline, Hawkins, Gabriel… then White/Parker/Cooper in the draft? It’s not that shitty of a receiving corps when you think about it.
