Friends of mine are having a get together

The menu of theirs consist of

Baked beans on Anadama bread

Quahogs

Clam

Succotash and


Needhams potato candy, No Idea what that is. lol

what plans do you have ?

Plans for the game: a 60 mile bike ride, then perhaps some quality time with my sawmill.

Church, then maybe a short nap, then an extended family Christmas. Tough to get everyone together - some 50 plus - close to Christmas.

Most are Browns fans, but I'll tape the game. we'll watch it at the Christmas as well. I may not even watch the recorded game.

Going to a sports bar.

Ill be watching the game at home with a bottle of Jack Daniels and a bud six pack!!

I'll end up watching the darn thing and seeing I wasted another 3 hours of my existence.

Plans? Start drinking at kickoff.

Start drinking faster at the start of the 2nd.

Have my wife run me over in the driveway at halftime.

same....i miss the last few years already

I will be reclined on the couch enjoying a Browns victory.

Gonna be a busy weekend. I have to work on Saturday. I’ll get home around 3 on Saturday. Start throwing a few back while cooking and listening to sports talk radio. There will be a couple good college games on, so I’ll flip back and forth for those. Sunday is wide open. God willing, Ill wake up. 😂 Get the groceries for lunch for throughout the week, grab a coffee, take a long walk in the park, make some finger foods for the game, stand and watch the Patriots whoop us again.

Well, I can't drink anymore and pharmaceuticals were never my thing. I'm seriously thinking of some type of hypnosis on Sundays for the next couple of months - brain on cruise control and healthy blood pressure. It's a 10am game here, which means coffee during the first half and Chex Mix during the second. Fitful nap afterwards. Plus my dad died three nights ago, and it will be only the second game we haven't watched together in 22 years. In that sense, I guess a win or loss doesn't matter. But I'm hoping JOK wakes up, Njoku takes some of the double teams off Cooper, and Myles plays with a bit of a chip on his shoulder (maybe even the sore one). Who knows with the Browns, right. Look into hypnosis.

Damn AZ, very sorry to hear that. I'm sure you'll have a heavy heart Sunday, maybe the Browns will sooth that with a big W. Twenty-two years, a lot to be thankful for there -- not that you don't already know that.

R.I.P. Dad

He took me to my first home game when Phipps was our quarterback. Many more after that. Watched all on broadcast when we still lived in Ohio. Then when DirecTV came about with The Return, we never missed one until he got sick. I think the most disgusted I ever saw him since '99 was the ridiculous last second loss to Chicago years ago, the playoff loss to the Steelers in that Holcomb game and the Rudd thing. Mercifully, I think, he became less affected by it as he got older. Oh......when Zeus got hit in the eye by the ref flag - he still talked about that until a couple years ago.

As far as moving forward watching this team, I'm still thinking about some hypnosis or slow moving kung-fu poses during the games.

Go Browns.

Sorry to hear about your Dad, AZ. I pray for comfort for you and your family.

I'll be at the stadium.

I endorse this plan.

I’m sorry to hear Az.


As for me, same as last week.

LMAO !!!

Very sorry for your loss

Let me know if you do the hypnosis

and if it works !

The bike ride sounds great

I haven't ridden my orange Cannondale to work once this year.

The sawmill, is that something new with you ?

LMAO!

Sorry to hear that, AZ. Thoughts to you and your family. I always hope the Browns win, but usually for me. This Sunday I hope as much as possible they can win for you.

Sorry AZ. My thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

Is this your pastor?...

New-ish. Bought when I moved to the country in 2021, but just got around to getting it set up and running. Just milled a huge white oak log this past Sunday. I have two more just like it ready to go as well as about a dozen hard maple, a handful of ash, and a couple black cherry waiting in the wings.

So sorry for your loss.

That's really cool stuff you are doing !

I think it's great that we can just drag a tree over to Prp's house and walk out with a coffee table!

Sounds like he has enough trees there that we don't have to drag a tree over , just have coffee

I'll bring the donuts lol

LOL !!!

Sorry to read that, AZ. You were blessed though, to have 22 years watching ball together.....

I'm so sorry, Az.

Meeting my cousins in “Settlers Landing” in the Flats to tailgate. For the first time this year sitting in my seats in 510.

NAAAAA I'm more like this.

Chilling with my coffee in the room right now. We will catch the train around 9, mill around W6th for an hour or so before heading in to the stadium around 11. Looks like it should be a pretty nice day.

Have a great day today Peen

I really miss the gang tailgating and sitting with Columbus

I feel like a few Browns players

Ya know, not that committed to the team


Still going to cheer hard for them today !!

GO BROWNS !!

Enjoy your tailgating and hopefully you leave your seat with a win

always enjoyed the walk out of the stadium with the joy of a win

to take my head out of the first half

the needhams potao candy

Shredded coconut mashed potatoes covered in chocolate

very interesting

During the game I was thinking

Is Purp using the saw

Hopefully if he is

he doesn't have the game on or listening to it

The saw thing had me worried my friend !!

I might have gotten in my planned amount of swearing during this one.

Never had time for the saw today, the bike ride took longer than expected. It's ok, there's always next weekend
