Now watch Schwartz come back and say he does want to coach this year and force the Browns to either release him or shoehorn him into some weird Mexican standoff, dead office arrangement. If he would ever attempt a move like this (and I don't think he would) it would be one of the biggest beta male moves ever.

Re: Robert Duvall

Duvall was always good no matter the role.
However, once in awhile everything lines up and magic happens in a movie.
Lonesome Dove was first off a great Pulitzer Prize winning novel.
A two hour movie was not the right format to tell the story. It had to be a mini-series. It needed that extra time to tell it right.
The dialogue came right from the book.
Then Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Duvall were born to play those characters.
The rest of the cast was amazing as well.
There are very few movies I can watch more than once. Lonesome Dove I have seen many times. Even with that I watch favorite clips from the movie often.
I read the three books by Larry McMurtry. It is really about male friendship over a lifetime.

We have no idea if this is a good hire.
He is not Jim Schwartz. He does not have that resume.
We will find out on the job.
If the defense plays well everybody will be happy.
If they regress nobody will be happy.

This is where you have to trust the evaluation process.
It is not just Berry. There are others involved in the evaluation process.
If there are strong feelings about a free agent or a draft prospect then you take that dive.
IMO I am not ok with the current QB room. Shedeur might have a future but the at is not good enough.
I don't see a future in Gabriel except as a backup and that is ok. I have no interest in DW other than a backup for this year.
Nussmeier is a guy I might take a flyer on. However, if you keep Shedeur and Gabriel how are you going to develop another rookie?
I like the idea of signing Willis because he has "potential" and some NFL experience. A two year deal is not a huge commitment. He might work out. He might not.
We don't have a sure thing right now. So, you need to keep trying and take some swings.

Any word if Tarver rushed out of the building saying he isn't coming back ?
Sounds like a good hire, hopefully the defensive players excel under his coaching.
I also hope Tarver stays along with Banda Both are staying

Just a general point about this year's QB class ... and this follows recent discussions where posters were heavily criticizing Berry for not taking Dart or other QBs who were not thought of as particularly highly yet who have shown some success (to date) in the NFL.
While the QB class isn't perceived today as being talented. . . there's probably a diamond in there somewhere. Whether its a Nussmeier or Beck who were once considered likely high 1st round talents but have had bad years ... or from somewhere else. Are posters saying DON'T take a flier on a QB in this draft. Period? In which case do not criticize the FO if one of those guys you didn't want to take a chance on excels -- or are you/we happy to find a guy in round 2 or 3 that the FO thinks might be better than SS and Gabriel?

With Lindsey Vonn crashing this morning other than hockey there's not a lot left for me in terms of interest in these games. Gotta admit, I've hardly paid any attention to the Olympics. Would like to see the Womens Hockey team.....They got a local young lady, Laila Edwards, on the team... She's a star! The U.S. women have been dominant and I think they’ll easily handle Canada in the final.

i love Technology... I like seeing advancements.
But like all tech before this, we need a watchdog to make sure it doesn't hurt us more than it helps us.
I don't trust this administration to oversee anything. Trump has proven over and over again that he cannot be trusted..He will do what's best for himself and his family and his wealthy buddies. The rest of us are not worth his time.
It's already being used to change perception of reality. Geesh What part don't you understand What part makes you think Ballpeen does or doesn't understand?

Anyway, hope Miles and the band respond to him. If they suddenly have a big regressions, the finger will get pointed at this kid. Hopefully the O is better enough to offset any regression. I don't think he'd do that, but if it happens, the Browns can't cave in. They need to find him a job within, then if someone wants him, that will cost them....

Short track is always fun. 9 skaters in mens 1500mm final due to advancements caused by penalties. You can probably imagine how that went.
Bobsled started, the difference between the best and the worst is huge. Seeing people bounce all over the track, then getting down to the medal contenders and they barely hit the wall at all. The Germans can sure pilot a sled
