Yay sexual assault!
mistake on the lake, part umpteen
I can’t wait to hear the spin attempts on this one.

Well, I've been on record that I'm completely happy with Baker and this whole foray into the bizzare was a bad idea from go.
There's actually a small grass roots effort in Oklahoma for the folks there to try and Green Bay the Browns. Someone was saying $650 per person ought to raise enough cash. They do realize that Baker's not going to be there forever right??
I couldn’t get to this thread fast enoughQuote:

Rapelisberger retires so the Browns decided the AFC north needs a new sexual predator. Definite upgrade from Baker though.
What a giant pile of burning shit that front office is.
Fixed it for youQuote:

Well, a day ago I would have warned you that both of their beat writers are diehard Anti-Baker-ites, but I guess it doesn't matter anymore.Quote:

When blowing a first round pick on a QB every 4 years isn't enough....trade the next 3 and spend 25% of your cap on one guy. Only in Cleveland! This is going to be fun to watch...

browns are in an ascending period and were never going to be top of the afc favorites and wont be with watson but would have a shot the next few years with baker and those first round picks to plug a hole the next 3 years; gone now.
Holy shit what an awful move by the Browns.Quote:

Go away already Hue. 3-36-1

While this thread is back on the front page, can you tell me what the plan is for Baker?
Is it now wait for some team with starting QB injury in week 1 to call in desperation?
Was he that untradeable prior to this draft, 'cause now you're getting 2023+ draft picks. I don't get it.
Maybe the commercials this year are going to be Baker cashing fat checks while going fishing on Sundays, boning Emily, day drinking, and saying fuck it to a regular 9-5 job.

Likeable by who? Has any teammate stuck up for him ?Quote:

Not likeable by me, the down-horning quisling. How anyone who played football on the west side of Austin could defect to the North side of the Red River is beyond comprehension.Quote:

They have the cap space so no reason to move quickly. They are just sticking Baker in a corner till they get what they think is the highest combination of money and draft pick they can get.
Yep, Andrew Berry was just on the sports talk station I’m streaming and while he didn’t say that verbatim, he said that.Quote:

Yeah, no.
Yeah, they will move him as soon as the first starting QB goes down with an injury.
Upset you never got an opportunity to throw D-cells in anger from the Dawg Pound?
Well, now's your chance to do the next best thing, hit golf balls out of there:

If, in the most Browns-move of all time, they decide that it's a good idea to keep Baker on the roster to back up Deshawn, then HBO better pack up the Hard Knocks crew right now and get to Berea.
Must-see TV.
Trade deadline? That would be some SERIOUS dysfunction if they're waiting until the trade deadline. You're not bringing that guy to training camp, or at least you shouldn't be, let alone carrying him through a number of regular season games.Quote:

Either way...Quote:
