Gotta say I'm pleasantly surprised by our rank... but #1 sucks.

It must be nice to know that you can finish in the top 5...

…at something.

Good luck with your hating this year, Brownies.

Who left the door open? See what garbage can come in when no one closes the door?

This survey about fan loyalty was done the year after the Stoolers won the Super Bowl. It was done by Biz Journal;

Click on the team logo and it gives the rank for your team. The Browns were number one.

Absolutely no question

It takes guts… chutzpah, if you will, to stick your neck out for a crappy, disappointing team, year after four-and-twelve year. I don’t think anyone would question Browns fans’ loyalty.

Sanity? Sure. Intelligence, absolutely, but like that stupid hound dog that wont stop coming back no matter how many times you kick it, you guys are there.

You are basing all of this off of some lousy years after we had to build an expansion team. The Browns are not some dormant franchise that has never tasted success. Get a clue

Your last decent playoff appearance was what, 20 years ago? That’s a long time to suffer, my friend.

You missed the point completely. Take out the 4 years that we didn’t have a team and the due course of building a team from scratch and its not all that surprising that it’s been awhile.

I think we've made the playoffs since we've been back.

We did lose in the wildcard round, but I was pretty sure we got there.

How are you a steeler’s fan from Boston?

my thoughts given to mary at BTSC, regarding her loving to see the “banter” at the other AFC North team blogs:


Banter about arbitrary rankings from an entertainment sports website?
Doubt I’ll have any time after watching my grass grow.

i’d feel that way whether we were ranked 1st or 32nd.

You know Selig? Ombudsman.
