'You Said It' is a reader participation column based on the premise that if you don't laugh about Cleveland sports you'll cry. And that if you do laugh about Cleveland sports, you might still end up crying.

YOU SAID IT

Bud: Why Did Hue Jackson put an injured Tyrod Taylor back in a meaningless game Thursday against Philadelphia? — Jimmy S.

Because he didn't have a concussed Colt McCoy on the roster.

Bud: In honor of your YSI return, I made a joke for you. Joe Borowski, Bob Wickman & Cody Allen walk into a bar at 2 a.m. The bartender, lighting a cigarette, says, “Well, I can see normal closing time might be a problem tonight.” Thoughts? — Mike Parris, Bay Village.

Yes. Is there a fire extinguisher in the bar?

Glad you remember we used to give away Mental Floss t-shirts for You Said It winners. But the only concern Ohio State fans have concerning Meyer's memory is if he suddenly forgets how to beat Michigan.

Bud: Will Jackson’s Browns be a big hit this fall or just a pretender? — Vince G., Cincinnati.

I see what you did there. Now try not to do it again.

Hey Bud: How many hotels have been built in Vegas with money from people betting on the Browns to win the Super Bowl? — Nate J, Brunswick.

The Browns winning the Super Bowl often carries the second longest odds at Vegas sports books. Right behind the Browns winning a season opener.

Bud: Browns offensive line coach Bob Wylie said on Hard Knocks that we won two World Wars with soldiers who didn’t worry about stretching. What happened during Viet Nam? — Tim.

I might be wrong but I believe a young Maurice Carthon was calling the plays in that one.

Bud: Have you tried the new free range Animal Crackers? — Jim Corrigan, Fairview Park

Now that LeBron is gone again, I'm more concerned about Cavs fans becoming an endangered species.

Bud: After watching Tyrod Taylor and Baker Mayfield get banged up Thursday I hope we can all get behind the quarterback who will answer the call when the snow starts flying in December. Brogan Roback deserves that much. -- Kevin.

You Said It "winners" finally get the call.
