You know it is getting close when I was excited to make a pre-draft ff trade of my 11th round pick for BenJarvus Green-Ellis. (Keeper rules are very screwy in this league, costs too much to keep high draft picks from the previous season.)
On the shocking news from the NFL front today?
Ocho agrees that he sucked last year.
DAVIE, Fla. (AP) -- Chad Johnson understands that many were writing him off after his forgettable 2011 season with the New England Patriots. He even questioned himself.
But less than a week into training camp with the Miami Dolphins, Johnson says he has no doubt he can recapture the form that made him a six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver with the Cincinnati Bengals.
Johnson said Wednesday that he's good, ''really good.'' So what happened in New England?
My fortune cookie told me that my sports team will be very successful this year. Vegas has the Colts as 100/1 shots to win the Super Bowl ... how much should I bet?
Browns WLB Chris Gocong was carted off with a right leg injury in Saturday's practice.
We typically wait for more details before reporting on camp injuries, but the consensus among Browns beat writers is that Gocong's injury is serious. ESPN Cleveland's Tony Grossi speculates it's an Achilles issue. We'll know more soon, but it sounds like Cleveland's weak-side linebacker is dealing with a possibly season ending injury

ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports that Trent Richardson is "tentatively" expected to undergo another knee scope during his Thursday visit with Dr. James Andrews.
Per Mort, the arthroscopic procedure is "tentatively scheduled," although it sounds pretty inevitable. The surgery will "clean up loose particles of cartilage," and is Richardson's second scope in the past six months. While the procedure sounds minor in nature and surely will be billed as such by the Browns, it confirms that Richardson essentially suffered a setback. We'll have more news on a potential return timeline soon, but Richardson can be expected to miss the entire preseason.
Citing multiple sources, ESPN Cleveland reports that Browns CB Joe Haden is in danger of a four-game suspension for a failed drug test.
One source told ESPN Cleveland that Haden tested positive for Adderall during a routine offseason drug test. Though Adderall is used to treat ADD, the NFL classifies it as a "stimulant," and it is on the NFL's list of banned substances. Haden emerged as a top-five cover corner last season, narrowly missing out on AFC Pro Bowl honors to Darrelle Revis, Champ Bailey, and Johnathan Joseph. If suspended at all this season, Haden would be ineligible for the 2012 Pro Bowl.
They should start calling Cleveland Stadium The Temple of Doom

The should just go full throttle and hire Matt Millen as their GM and Isiah Thomas as his chief adviser.
In fairness to Millen....he eventually did find a pretty good WR in the first round.
Tonight I will drink myself to sleep.
:-|
be interesting to see him too...
actually, for a preseaon game, you really couldn't ask for a better matchup....except to have it week 3.
does 12 string like football
i thought i saw a thong line, but didn't want to say anything. :?
Depends how pretty I feel.
Won't be drinking but yeah...It's gonna suck. Look on the bright side...Least it give somebody else to pull for while Luck gets his legs under him.
What are you talking about? The LA Clippers are the Cleveland Browns of the NBA! We invented sucking first
Pantheon of Sadness also works
i did not know you were a communist.
Communists don't wear underpants?
