    Nothing. That's not like him to just be gone. Hopefuly when he said he was taking care of a friend of his that has medical problems it wasn't a round about way of telling us something.....

    If anyone here knows away to contact him, it might be a good idea. Even by snail mail.

    i just dug up an old address for double d from 3 years ago, as i sent him a package. no clue if it's still good, but i have it (along with his name) if someone wants to take a stab at tracking him down. i was going to wait until the reg season commences, as i think that will be the true litmus test on whether life is simply getting in his way, or if it's potentially something else. i don't have a phone number.

    if anyone wants to proceed sooner rather than later, pm me

    I'll contact him, I've known him for sometime and I have a feeling he'll be back soon, he probably just got a little burned out and needed a break!

    I'm fine buddy, doing great. I appreciate everyone's concerns, I've been on the forum for a little over 3 years and went at it pretty hard everyday for 3 years and I guess I just got a bit burned out, but I'm doing great. Looking forward to the start of the college and NFL seasons. I have to start my New York Jets season thread tomorrow, I must follow everything Aaron Rodgers does this season, every move he makes, every step he takes, every bond he breaks, I'll be watching him. Looking forward to it!

    Allrighty now........a reason to watch the Browns game tonight (7:30)

    "After sitting out the 2023 Pro Football Hall of Fame game against the New York Jets, Deshaun Watson is ready to suit up for the Cleveland Browns. The quarterback announced that he will start against the Washington Commanders on Friday, Aug. 11."

    It'll be interesting to see whether Watson fulfills what was seen as his potential.

  • perkdogperkdog Posts: 30,845 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Hard to see much with these guys if they are only in there for a few drives though

  • Steven59Steven59 Posts: 8,764 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Here we go...........Not!
    "Friday's exhibition game against the Washington Commanders has been delayed by lightning near and around Downtown Cleveland, with fans inside the stadium being advised to seek shelter immediately. NFL rules stipulate play cannot resume for at least 30 minutes following even one lightning strike within the general area of the stadium (usually believed to be around 5-10 miles)."

    Problem is, there are a few more storms about an hour away heading towards the stadium.

    I was referring more to how Watson will look if/when we get to see him for a full season at QB1 in Cleveland.

    Now I remember why I don't care for pre-season games. Good thing reruns of Full Throttle Saloon and Combat Dealers was on last night. :D

    The Bills were on fire in Pittsburgh last night. Let’s recap the first half.
    12 penalties for 90 yards.
    3 interceptions thrown
    1 fumble lost
    1 partially blocked punt
    Allowed a 65 yard punt return
    Allowed a 62 yard TD run
    Lost RT Tommy Doyle to a season ending
    Knee injury (probably)
    24-0 halftime deficit
    Took out Josh Allen after 2 series because he was running for his life.
    Most of this was with starters (-some and Allen for fear of injury)
    Matt Barkley was responsible for all 4 turnovers.
    OL looked like they just met everyone 5 minutes before game time, shook hands and drew plays in the sand.
    Same old helter skelter offense as last year. Run around down field and hope Allen makes a big play ( he did make a 35 yard dime on 2nd and 24. Called back for a hold and a 3rd and 19. Called back for another hold)
    Only bright spot was 1st round TE Dalton Kincaid. He’s very special.

    Huge doubts the Bills are any better than last year as the rest of the division and league catches up.

    I’d be very surprised if they don’t trade for OL help even if it means giving up some offensive stars.

    Very disappointing

    Well, my Panthers are now 0-2 in the preseason, we lost to the Giants 21-19, but I'm not worried a bit, I have all the confidence in the world in my team, my cats will make the playoffs this season, I'm sure of it. Man, I'm looking so forward to seeing Carolina back in the postseason, I get goosebumps just thinking about it.

    FINALLY - Browns get rid of kicker Cade York, acquiring kicker Dustin Hopkins from Chargers in trade.

    "When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"

  • Steven59Steven59 Posts: 8,764 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Hey Brownies, what took you so long...................

    "After a rookie season in which York helped the Browns win their season opener against the Carolina Panthers, but failed to consistently produce when needed most, York entered 2023 on thin ice. His greatest asset was his draft status -- Cleveland spent a fourth-round pick on him in the 2022 NFL Draft -- but even that wasn't enough to prevent the Browns from seeking help elsewhere.

    York's second year in Cleveland got off to an ugly start filled with struggles throughout the preseason slate. He only converted 50% of his eight field goal attempts and failed to deliver in two game-winning scenarios in each of Cleveland's final two preseason contests, leading to a tie in Philadelphia and a one-point loss in Kansas City on Saturday."

    Crap, Browns can't catch a break.............

    " Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow went full speed in practice Wednesday and said he’s on track to play in Sunday’s opener at Cleveland after a calf injury sidelined him for most of the preseason."

    Lots of people were talking like they were hiding a serious injury

    The Browns are well capable to give Cincy a game providing their guy Watson plays remotely to that contract he was given

    Not that this matters. Burrow is 1-4 vs the Browns and 0-2 in Cleveland. Sometimes a team just has your #.
