    You seriously don't think saying "I get info faster and usually info that most people don't get" isn't spouting off? What possibly more could he have said to make it spouting off? lol

    And sleeper is right..BR just posts articles or blogs on here, which yeah is nice, but it also has to do w/ his personal vendettas against the Browns/Browns players. Like, if a blog post was stating how the Browns need to part ways w/ McCoy you best believe BR is posting that shit on here.

    Or he'll post "pipe dreams" like Calvin Johnson to the Browns! LOL

    That franchise is publicly traded???

    pssst there are also differences between investors and shareholders.

    Semantics, Con_Alama, nothing more than semantics.

    The franchise is not publicly traded but investor and owner CAN be used interchangeably. A person who buys stock in Exxon is 'investing'(aka is an investor) in Exxon and owns(as in owner) of Exxon. You're playing games with words in an attempt to make my claim(which I now know to keep my investments private because Chatter scrutiny is absurd) illegitimate. It's not. Enjoy.

    I have never suggested anywhere including this thread that you do not own what you say you own.

    An investor and an owner are not interchangeable.

    One can invest in a business without purchasing equity ownership in it. It's not semantics. When it comes to stock that is a direct equity purchase. When it comes to your agreement with the franchise owner it depends on the investment terms you have with him....of which of course I have not referred to at all.

    I always enjoy Ohio Chatter. Thanks.

    I don't know what you are arguing. They can definitely be interchangeable. I just gave you an example of it. Don't be dense. Thanks.

    No, I took it as "I'm a big browns fans and look around the internet for articles most people on here probably wont see or find."

    It's very clear to me that you don't' know which is why I commented on it.

    A person can invest in a company without acquiring equity ownership. That means the two terms are not the same thing.

    I agree. You can, but the other way is possible as well. Investor and owner can​ be used interchangeably, that was the entire point. They not always but they are used in some cases.

    That's what I was saying the whole time. I can go look around for Browns articles too and pretend like I know what I'm talking about.

    Yes and that's why the details are important. If you go back to my original post on the topic. They are not the same things.

    More correctly, one is a subset of the other.

    I'd rather not argue semantics or talk about in which situations an owner isn't an investor and/or vice versa. Pointless discussion, I think everyone here can use Google.

    Just like anyone can claim they own a McDonald's Franchise.

    If they want to claim they own a McDonald's franchise, by all means go ahead. Doesn't matter to me, I'm not sure why it bothers everyone on here that I do, in fact, own(invest if you ask Con_Alma) a McDonald's franchise. It's been a great decision, I'm happy with it.

    Being an investor isn't necessarily a subset of being an owner. A person can be an investor and not have equity ownership.

    I have never questioned nor commented on whether you are an owner or investor...ever.

    No Sleep commented on "insider info" which BR never claimed to have. Try and keep up.

    I was going the opposite direction, but the more I think about it, there are too many cases where owners aren't investors for it to be accurate. You're right, they are two separate things.
