FJoeTheismann

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> I can write the Browns Preview: 'They Suck'.

That was pretty easy.

Coop 2.0

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> That's very frustrating to hear they wouldn't give us a crack a writing a real preview. It's unfortunate that with the amount of bashing Cleveland, and more specifically, Ohio, takes on this site that they would at least give us the same respect 31 other cities received in their "season preview" for the NFL. At no point during that nonsense did Frey even mention a single player. No outlook on the TEAM. Just a ridiculous guess at a final record by someone that not respected at all in the public eye.

Disappointing to say the least.

rj3111

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> umm yea that should have been "the dice roll" not "the ice roll"

Money

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> well Jimbo thats the way the ice roll sometimes. I am very dejected by the fact that we ca not even get a "REAL" preview of our team. Will next time you want to run an article about the Browns send it to me or Jimbo to write.

Money

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> Money, I already inquired. It's a no go. There's no respect.

Jimbo

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> I think will should get rj311 or somebody else to take another crack at the browns preview. Yes I understand we are not that good and have been rebuilding for over a decade but come on we are still not the laughing stock of the nfl. So please treat our team and fans accordingly. The Cleveland Browns are one of the most loved sports teams in our country. I travel a lot and when i have a Browns hat on no matter where I am Browns fans are always close by and always stop me to talk about the team. Give us the respect we deserve, with a real preview!

Money

Speed Ball

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> i'm with money on this one....can we get a real fucking browns post? I know everyone likes to bash Ohio, but some of us are just as big of fans for our teams as you all are for yours. This post was an absolute joke and, while I've been extremely entertained by the comments today, I'm still completely annoyed that THIS was my Browns preview.

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> Larry Bird Flu, the best burrito place is obviously La Bamba's, on High Street in Columbus. James Frey would probably love it when he was high and getting chased by the police and beating up crack addicts. Oh wait, he did nothing like that because he's a fraudulent Oprah kiss ass. Seriously, anyone who WANTS to be on Oprah's Soccer Mom Book Club has no writing integrity. Oprah and Frey, too no talent assclowns who deserve each other.

But no I get this freaking chump who just spews nothingness out of his oversized mellon! All I have to say is Charlie Frye is not the answer Ken Dorsey is worse we are fucked....GO BROWNS!!!

Money

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> If this is indeed Frey writing, isn't he just going all meta by parodying himself? And if so, it's still fun to call him a liar.

RyHud

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> Yeah, Will "Confirmed" for me that this was Frey, so I guess chances are good he is reading this. With that in mind:

Oprah's a bitch, isn't she?

Jimbo

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> James Frey...wow...Isn't it sad that there was NO ONE!!! else who could possibly write about the Cleveland Browns besides a guy who is such a schizophrenic that other schizophrenic people don't like him wow....What's going to be next Steve Bartman writing about my beloved Chicago Bears or Rush Limbaugh writing about the Kansas City Chiefs talking about how the team doesn't take drugs...by his example....wow...

PurduePaul

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> Jimbo --

Understood. I think there's been a lot of back-and-forth specualation regarding this post.

What are the chances Frey himself is reading these comments?

RyHud

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> This is James Frey. Believe it.

Juancho

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> RyHud

I make that remark earlier because I thought for sure that this wasn't James Frey, but I have confirmed (I think) that it is him.

...my apologies.

(unless I am being duped myself. Not completely sure what's going on.)

Jimbo

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> Yeah, I think we all vastly underestimate the rising cultural force that IS Deadspin. Not only can Will get James Frey, at the rate this site is going, I fully expect J.D. Salinger to come out of hiding and make a Mike Cooper joke.

Get Him A Body Bag, Yeah!

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> Frey and Will were both contributers to a site called The Black Table.

AcilletaM

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> First I assumed Will asked Frey to write the preview because they're friends. But now I'm thinking Will must HATE Frey ... he knew how much we'd slaughter the guy after a post like that.

This has been a lot of fun.

RyHud

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> He had a writing career?

Rockin' Joe Stalin

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> I believe Frey gave a blurb for one of Will's books. So maybe this is a mercy post, seeing as how the guy's writing career is pretty much over.

Kooby Pickett

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> Jesus, James Frey! Peter King did a better Browns preview in his column this morning, and all he did was document the saga of the Browns' centers over the last 28 days.

Words you should know, Mr. Frey. Documentation. and 28 days, as in how many days rehab usually lasts.

The Browns really aren't that different from the Steelers. Other than, you know, winning.

Browns fans are great. Every year, it's like... first game, "Wooooo-hooooooo! We're going to the Super Bowl!!!"

Walker Told Me I Have AIDS

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> Carl Monday has edited Frey's post:

"Unlike many recent years, I actually believe the Browns are going in the right direction. Romeo Crennel is a great coach, when I'm not catching him masturbating. Phil Savage is a great GM, likewise when I'm not catching him masturbating. We have an owner who is incredibly rich, doesn't masturbate much, wants to win and will spend money to do it. We're two years away. This year, I'll be thrilled if we're 8-8. I'll be fine if we're 7-9. The Super Bowl isn't going to happen unless all these people stop masturbating!"

Eirishis

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> Frey was also the reporter who covered Pat Robertson's amazing leg press session from a few months back. I think he has proved himself to be a very credible source.

Denis Lemieux

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> this really begs the question of whether the NFL preview writers are even necessary. just posting the name "cleveland browns" and letting the commenters go to town on the subject would have been every bit as effective, and no disgraced writers have had to suffer in the process. you know, wisdom of crowds and so on.

O.D.B. McDowell

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> Frey once snorted coke off of dead Satanists in Fiji...just kidding. He really got a misdemeanor for failing to yield and calling the cop a 'mean douche.' Clsoe enough though, right.

Christ Sabo

]]> <![CDATA[NFL Season Preview: Cleveland Browns]]> I don't know about you guys, but I don't believe Frey when he says he fumbled the ball on the Denver goal line in the AFC Championship.

No wonder I moved to Chicago 5 years ago....

And as a die hard Browns' fan...I'm going for 5-11. We would have had a shot at 7-9 with Bentley, but as always, we are screwed by the injury bug. We are still one year away from a total turn around, but Crennel and Savage have us headed in the right direction for a change.

Towelie: No, If I were a towel, why would I be wearing this hat, and this fake moustache?

I wonder what's coming up on the next episode of "Deadspin Commenters Abuse Well-Known Public Figures"?

Right now: the Dallas Cowboys. Your author is Bill O'Reilly.
