Sleeper making stuff up as he goes along again.

90% of the fans predicted 4 or less wins, now all the sudden he is the only one that did? Come on Sleeper, at least live in reality.

The reason I bring this up is people on here seem to think my views are "Hot Takes" when in reality they are based on good data and end up being correct FAR more often than they end up off base. People like to focus on the few misses rather than the 90% that I get correct, most of which are bold predictions against the opinion of the masses(ie. DRose being a trash NBA player after he won the MVP). What's he doing now? LOL

The only reality is you're out of touch with reality when it comes to yourself.

This statement makes no sense.

The reality is if you disagree with me you are disagreeing with reality.

This whole thing has gone over your head. Nobody is disagreeing with you (I.e 95% of this thread also said the browns would be terrible). We are all poking fun of you for patting yourself on the back for making the most obvious predictions. This has been explained to you numerous times now, but you don't want to face reality, so enjoy being delusional and congrats on your ONE bold prediction 5 years ago.

His real life must be even sadder and more pathetic than we thought. Having to come onto a dying message board to pat himself on the back for his "bold" (LOL) predictions. Truly pathetic. What a sad miserable lonely life sleeper must live.

Sleeper, if you want help on how get a life and live in reality, we're here to help.

And during the Cavs playoff series my predictions were spot on except for the Finals where I predicted Cavs in 6. Cavs ended up winning in 7; I'll take it.
You said they'd sweep Toronto.

After game 3 using the most recent data sleeper predicted Cavs in 5. After game 4 using the most recent data sleeper predicted cavs in 6. When you come to reality you will realize sleeper is on point with all his predictions. Enjoy!

Don't forget Love was 100% being traded no matter what. Also, Sleeper was the only one in the entire world that predicted the Indians would make the playoffs and Browns would win less than 8 games. He also gets lotz of teh sex and haz all the monies. He lives in reality!

Sleeper is the crossfit vegan-er of the OC. Don't believe him? He'll tell you!

They were damn close to doing so.

Missing by a minute and by mile are pretty similar in sports.

For example, I said Cavs in 6 initially and held ground despite them being down 3-1. That is certainly not how I thought the series would go but in the end Cavs in 6 or Cavs in 7 might as well be the same thing. Cavs champs? Okay!

Anyways, I'm down for someone to start a predictions thread and track the results. Guarantee I would be #1 and no one would be close.

The reality is, no one here predicts anything definitely with qualitative data; it's all hedging and broad based statements. Other than me of course.

Ok back to the Browns and enough idiotic arguing with yourself. Thought we stopped that once BR stopped posting.

Browns picked up Cooper, OG that was the #7 overall pick in the 2013 (Mingo) draft, promoted Hogan and Wright to the Active Roster and cut clipboard jesus. I like the picking up of Cooper, I was a big fan of his and Warmack in the draft and wanted us to draft one of them over Mingo. Since then he's broken his leg and been plagued by injuries. He was supposed to be the Patriots starting guard before getting hurt in the preseason. If healthy, think he can help. Keep Greco at center, regardless of Erving, cut bailey for being a knucklehead (who also isn't good), Erving is back up for both positions, and start fucking Coleman or Drango at RT. That's an improved Oline immediately.

I hope Kessler can play this week. I think Browns win 27-20. Kessler looks good and crow gets back on track. Love the cooper pick up

Apparently sucking on-field isn't enough, let's do something that's terrible PR with no upside I can think of.

Seriously hate this. This sonofabitch wrote a book about Football, Family, and Faith. Then doesnt hold players accountable for sexual assault, and intimidates women from talking about sexual assault at the hands of the football players. Some faith there you sack of fucking shit. If the NFL actually gave a fuck, they would ban this bastard from being allowed to even participate in the NFL at any faucet. He's fucking scum.

Real question, is he proven to have done any of those things? Did he intimidate anyone? I really don't know, just that the whole program has messed up shit going on. I don't find it as big of a deal as the people crying on the radio though. He showed up to practice, has ex players on team. He went to Dallas practice too.

Art doesn't even make the top 200 in terms of all the scumbagery the NFL has brought throughout the years.
