I'd give them our #24 and our 2nd rounder, maybe even throw in a 2027 3rd round Maxx opposite Myles with Shelby & Mason would be sick.
Run defense would go up a ton and offenses would be pooping themselves trying to figure out how to effectively pass block that line. We would likely never need to blitz and our secondary would be better for it.

Re: Garland Traded for Harden

I don't follow the NBA much but what I am thinking is that Harden would be a great 6th man. Instant offense off the bench. Will Harden's ego go for that? Doubtful

Tristan Wirfs, Wonderlic score- 23, played for Iowa= FIVE Pro Bowls, J Wills, Wonderlic score- 9.....then studied 23, Ala started= Pro Bowls, are you kidding me......Jimmy Johnson, can't fix stupid--- besides physical skill I hope they determine how good guy is knowing plays, etc., etc., Wills always seemed SLOW in interviews.
Maybe we have NEW scouts- we've bombed drafts during Berry's tenure-- sure hit home runs last draft- we need more home runs on O line this year.....GO Browns!!!

As a casual fan I don't have the knowledge to grade anything in the NBA.
I watch some games. I watch the Cav's when it's possible. I don't watch other teams. I know the stars of the NBA but cannot really "talk basketball."
I got into the Cav's last year because they won a lot. They didn't get done in the playoffs because of injuries or lacking in some way.
This season they have not been healthy all year. Garland with his feet problems. etc.etc.
They must have said we cannot go into the playoffs with doubts about players. So, they are dealing in the oresent to win now.
Harden has been a checkered star.
It will be fun to see what happens with these moves. I like the idea of winning now.

People are "proving who they are". No non citizens can vote in national or state elections. There are some exceptions for local elections only.
There is currently legislation before congress to require a photo ID in order to vote.
None of what you posted actually addresses the federal government targeting only blue cities and states to take over their elections and them having the right to do so.

Since Turning Point U.S.A. has decided that Bad Bunny, an American citizen isn't "American enough" they decided to create their own half time show a couple of things crossed my mind.
First, as I mentioned Bad Bunny is actually an America citizen. Where were they when people who weren't actually American citizens headlined the Superbowl?
Artists such as Shakira (Colombia), The Weeknd (Canada), Rihanna (Barbados), U2 (Ireland), Coldplay (UK), The Rolling Stones (UK), Phil Collins (UK), and Shania Twain (Canada), Paul McCartney (U.K.)
Another question I had was why their fascination with Kid Rock? I mean the man hasn't had a hit since 2008 yet he was selected to headline this alternative halftime show. He appeared in at The White House with trump in which he appeared to be wearing a cheap knockoff of an Evil Knievel suit. So I did just a little digging. Come to find out Kid Rock promoted the statutory rape of young girls in one of his songs titled Cool, Daddy Cool...............
Young ladies, young ladies, I like 'em underage, see Some say that's statutory (But I say it's mandatory)
As Paul Harvey would say, "And now you know... the rest of the story".

I'm considering this issue as resolved. Previously, I could not make two posts in a row without encountering the extremely long deadlocks and they would then result is delayed page loads as well. Since the most recent change, I have yet to experience a single issue, and while I'm not on here anywhere near as much as I used to be, I've been on several times across different time periods over the last couple of days. I've posted replies and edited posts, all without issue.

And it puzzles me where all of those people went who were so loudly proclaiming that the federal government should stay out of states. To allow state and local governments to have more control over themselves and leave them alone. We're still here. See above. The Constitution is and always shall be above all else. However, if it is done in a manner that doesn't conflict with the Constitution, then some level of oversight to prevent it being the Wild West and to restore faith in the system is warranted. At the least, there has to be standard with a path to rigorous accountability. Unfortunately, much of that comes in the form of fights over whether or not people have to prove who they are to vote as well as whether or not the census should count all people or only citizens. Those two things are the likely the biggest issues in play. As we're all aware by now, the census determines apportionment and apportionment is the distribution of the finite number of seats in the House AND electoral votes. When one state gains a seat or EC vote, it can only do so at the expense of another. Voter ID has its issues with implementation, but it is a solid idea. As-is, a number of states already require an ID to vote - I fail to see why they all cannot. At worst, states would have to begin issuing their State IDs at no cost to their residents, and given what we all pay in taxes that should not be a problem. They could still require people to pay for a driver's license because that form of ID involves a privilege. It's a super simple fix that would give everyone a lot of peace of mind regarding election integrity.

I think the media are generally a bunch of doofuses but if I were coming in to this job I’d kinda like to not have them despising me right off the bat. The Browns organization itself supplies plenty of crap to deflect and deter you from your work.

People interact with others in different ways. Just because that's the way he addressed the journalists doesn't mean it was fake.
I'll give you an example. My first name is Roy. When I first moved down here I found it quite odd that every time I had an appointment somewhere they addressed me as "Mr. Roy". I found that to be the strangest thing at first. But that's just the way they communicate with people.
I can see how some have decided to take it that way or feel that way about it. And just as yourself I'm not going it slam you for it. But different situations call for different reactions as well.
With some people they search for reasons to hate on people for anything and everything they can come up with. That doesn't apply to you but I think it does to the individual I was responding to in my post you are replying to.

There are a few issues with this. At this time Republicans hold all three branches of the government along with a majority in the SCOTUS.
There are zero checks and balances to insure the federal government doesn't twist, exaggerate or even invent what they will label as "election/voter fraud".
What we are seeing is trump targeting specific blue state locations so it's already a political issue, not an election issue. He plainly named and stated places where Democrats won to target but not the entire nation as a whole. The only one being accused of election fraud are the democrats. What is going on here is obvious.
The constitution plainly forbids control of elections by the federal government. The way we "feel or what we think" about that is irrelevant.
Maybe our forefathers saw the possibility that if they didn't take such measures we would see exactly what we are seeing being attempted now.
And it puzzles me where all of those people went who were so loudly proclaiming that the federal government should stay out of states. To allow state and local governments to have more control over themselves and leave them alone.
I guess don't tread on me only applies to them and it's just fine when the people they support do it to others. Strange how that works because their silence is deafening at this point.
