Your countless threads with unsubstantiated rumors, wild theories, erratic mood swings, loose connections and hot takes have made these last few days truly special!  In no particular order..... 

 

- Thank you to every guy who had a chance encounter with a Delta Sonic employee with a cousin who works at a Best Buy in Buffalo that had a big scoop. 

- Big thanks to the guy whose district regional sales manager knows Russ and believes we may draft a QB this year.

- Thank you to everyone who follows the Incarcerated Steves and Prison Bobs of the twittersphere for keeping us up to date on all the latest fiction. 

-  Big thanks to the guys that shared every mock draft on the internet and had meltdowns based on the mock results.

- Thanks to the peeps who are "so f@#$ing done with this team if the pick _______________!"

- Thank you to the guy who cruises the Brown's reddit page and uncovered the 26 team trade scenario that lands us a top 3 pick with only giving up Jerry Hughes.  

- Thanks to everyone who started a reaction thread for every permutation and draft outcome.  

- Thank you to everyone who reminded us how many holes there are to fill and for those wise men among us that reminded us that it really isn't about filling all the holes but finding the one hole that you think you might be able to spend the rest of your life with.

 

Without all you emotionally unstable, gullible schmucks who find authority in the strangest of places none of this would have been possible!!! 

 

 

just hit 'em with a sock filled with tennis balls, like me.

Though I rarely post anymore and mostly lurk, Jauronimo you good sir have earned my nomination for Post of the Year for 2018. In fact, I think we can shut the forum down now because nothing will top this!  

"Delta Sonic employee with a cousin who works at a Best Buy" and "Incarcerated Steves" gave me the gigglesnorts!

Here read something intelligent. 

 

 

Three quarterbacks went in the Top 10 in 2012, with Andrew Luck going first to Indianapolis, Robert Griffin III going second to Washington, and Ryan Tannehill going eighth to Miami. Luck got off to a very good start but has been derailed recently by injuries. Griffin also got off to a good start but was derailed even more quickly by injuries and was out of the league altogether last year. And Tannehill has shown promise at times but missed all of last year with a knee injury, and the end of the previous year with a knee injury as well.

The next two quarterbacks taken were selected by two men with a great deal of quarterback expertise: Browns President Mike Holmgren, a quarterback guru credited with helping develop Joe Montana, Steve Young and Brett Favre, chose Brandon Weeden with the 22nd overall pick. And Broncos G.M. John Elway, a Hall of Fame quarterback himself, chose Brock Osweilerwith the 57th overall pick.

Who else was available when Holmgren chose Weeden and Elway chose Osweiler? Oh, just Super Bowl-winning quarterback Russell Wilson, who went to Seattle at 75, Super Bowl-winning quarterback Nick Foles, who went to Philadelphia at 88, and Kirk Cousins, who went to Washington at 102 and just got the biggest fully guaranteed contract in NFL history from the Vikings.

So while the 2012 quarterback class did have some big-time NFL talent, it didn’t go in the order it should have gone in — and even the talent evaluators who should have been the most equipped to recognize top quarterback talent whiffed badly.

This thread isn't about superfluous or unnecessary threads.  Its about recognizing each and every one of you beer drinking, god fearing, lunch pail, regular joe twelve packs.  This thread is for all the unsung heroes who wake up each and every day bruised and sore from working they little jobs, put their pants on one leg at a time, and dare to dream about posting wild bullS#$% on the internet.  You guys are the real MVPs!!!

This reminds me of the "real American hero" commercials of yore.

This is the type of garbage that has absolutely no place in this thread!!!
