I really love the jackets. Apparently they even match the pattern of Paul Brown’s fedora. Nice touch.



I respect the hell out of the old timers, but I can’t wait to see some of the guys I actually watched like Chad and Big Willie get their day.

Great pictures. I was there and it was really cool.  I think the way the fans cheered and supported all the inductees was cool given the fact that so many of them probably weren't even alive when they played.  

I wish the ESPN special (a football life) on Paul Brown was mandatory viewing for all NFL fans (and dumbass executives).  The entire league owes that man a HUGE debt of gratitude.  

I saw Mike Brown in the elevator (it opened but they had security block and people from getting on, which I understood even though my 88 year old dad could have really used a ride at that point) after the game.  He had a suit on, but a Bengals hat, which kind of made me chuckle.  I recognized him and said quickly before the elevator closed:  "Great to have your dad in the ROH".  He just smiled, nodded, and gave a little wave.  

I know some on here will say I should have ninja'd his ass or something, but I have said for years that he is really just a figure head and the team  is largely run by  Katie, Troy, Duke, and Zach.  Say what you will about their track record and draft busts, but I think they have nailed the past two drafts and the needle is pointing up.

I can't remember the last time I felt so optimistic.  If they find a way to sneak in to the playoffs, well...I just want to see Joey Franchise (props to Uzomah on that one) in the playoffs because he seems to be at his absolute best in the biggest stage.
