These days in most cases a open roof stadium can't be financially successful for football. tax payer on the hook.

I never understood how 8 home games and a couple of preseason games justified a stadium. Sure, there's some summer concerts too, but still.

If I'm Jimmy, I'm getting pretty envious of the Cowboys, Falcons, Raiders, Chargers, Rams, etc etc. There some drop-dead gorgeous stadiums out there.

Play games in Canton for a year and get it built.
 
Official capacity at Fawcett Stadium is 22375. Some logistical issues there for sure.
Perhaps a different stadium might be better. I'm sure the revenue from stadium attendance
is still only a part of the overall revenue stream but, still.

I cannot look the other way on the accusations against Deshaun Watson. Farewell, Browns: Letter to the Editor

Has he? The Browns have been more competitive, future is looking bright, stadium got renovated, revamped the Berea offices and training facility, found his way to jerseys everyone loves, got a bunch of nationally recognised players, and the overall Browns brand is better than it was in the years prior.

On top of that, he's been very active with the team (Unlike the absentee Lerner), very active with fundraising in the community and shown a clear desire to learn from his mistakes.

It hasn't been perfect, plenty of missteps, but I don't get the Haslam hate. He didn't move the Browns, change the Browns for the worse, put a dome on the stadium, didn't try to modernise the franchise. All the shit people hated or were fearful of.

The hate Haslam gets is nuts. He's doing an excellent job.

I’d put ‘‘em in the Horseshoe for a year. Heck, why not just move ‘em to Columbus. A 100,000 seat stadium? Are you kidding me?
