Always amazes me when people make the claim that a great college team could beat the worst pro team. Think the college team would be lucky to score points on an NFL defense.

Classy just showing how dumb he is again, shocker.

After the game Kirksey said the Browns won't be going 0-16. You have to lol at the "confidence." I don't see any game on their remaining schedule that is winnable.

To be fair though, did anyone think there a winnable game on the schedule to start the year?

Um. No. They would not.

Man, I have been to a number of steelers games on the road where the black and gold rocked the stadium, but yesterday took the cake. Dont know if I blame browns fans much. Tix are not cheap, and this was an easy way to recoup some bucks.

About the most commotion at the stadium was for Lebron and his cronies with one of the kartrashian chicks in the suite above us.

Boys did what they were supposed to do.

lolphins, raiders, ethnic slurs, eagles, titans, jets. Those were all games I thought the browns COULD win.

I see it the opposite way. You are 0-8, go big.

FIFY for people who aren't easily butt hurt.

I agree with the list though.

I probably would have taken the Raiders and Skins off the "could win" list. I thought, with their young talent, the Raiders would use last year as a stepping stone to a good year this year (wasn't seeing 7-2 right now, though). And I thought the Skins were a solid (if not overly good) team and while the benefited from a horrible division last year, would still be good enough to take out the lower tier to teams.

Jets were more a mixed bag. Solid last year, but when a team goes through a shitload of drama just to bring back Harvard Fitz, how good can they be? The other three were definite win chances.

I didn't notice the raiders were on the list. I wouldn't have them there either. The Browns SHOULD have beaten the skins, but completely choked.

I was at the game yesterday, and by my estimation it was 50/50 Cowboys to Browns fans (I don't think I've ever seen that much blue in that stadium)...it was also pretty cool, as a Buckeye, to hear "ZEEEEK" after his first carry--he is so damn good.

As was I. Most times people overestimate the numbers like that, but yesterday your number is legit. May have even been......over 50%?

If you're a Browns season ticket holder, you probably could recoup a decent chunk of your season ticket package by selling the Cowboys game ticket.

I'd do the same for an 0-9 on the way to 0-16 team. Embarrassing.

I am not sure I believe this, but in the section I was in for a bit, 124, a dallas fan said he flew in from Texas for the game. He said it was cheaper for him to travel to Cleveland, get a hotel, a ticket, than it is for him to buy a lower bowl seat at ATT stadium.....

Makes sense. Parking in Dallas, a half mile away (media lot), has a face value of $150.

Coming into the year, I thought Eagles and Chargers were best chances for a win. Chargers look half-way decent this year now though so...they're off that list.

Haha, they're back to .500 and coming back to earth. Still better than I thought, but not as awesome as everyone was thinking they'd be after their first few games.

So let me get this right...you think the reason they're 4-4 and not 0-8 is because I jinxed them into being good? Is that correct? Man...didn't know grown men believed in jinxes, neat.

Welcome to the OC. You literally have about 80% of the posters who say stuff like "Bats are silent, we are going to lose in 4 games" because they are trying to reverse jinx the results.

It's embarrassing these people aren't called out more for being idiots at best.

No, that is said as a joke. Tribe sucked like 2+ years ago (like 6-7 straight loses), someone (coa??) said it and tribe swept. It's said now as a joke to that post being so off.

Just another example of sleeper not know wtf he is talking about and further proof he doesn't pay attention to any of these teams until they are in the playoffs.
