OT: Browns fan's last request
"Let down by his team one last time."
I'm sure MSU fans can do the same thing.
Did they do it?
Is pretty old. I'm a life long Pittsburgh Pirates fan and tweeted this exact same thing last season.
Pirates tie for 1st in the NL overall record... maybe this is the year! Even the Lions went to the playoffs two years ago!
Lol very true. Hope you're right. We were 16 games over .500 last year as well.
Yeah, but did you go the whole way and die?
As a lifelong Browns fan nothing surprises me about this story.
Threadjack, but apropos: who's more miserable, Browns fans or Lions fans?
Cleveland. They had their team taken to Baltimore and had to watch them win a super bowl.
Add the fact that most of them are also Cav's fans, and yeah. Not a good place to be.
Twice!
Interesting question. Let's marshall the evidence:
Lions: Half a century of almost continuous suckage
Browns: A few decades of almost continuous heartbreak, followed by disappearance and a decade of suckage
Lions: Have the Tigers, who've had a bit of success recently, and a couple championships in the past 50 years
Browns: Have the Tribe, who... yeah...
Lions: Have the city of Detroit
Tribe: Have the city of Cleveland, but the state of Ohio.
VERDICT: Browns, in a landslide.
I suppose comparing the Wings to the Blue Jackets would be unfair.
Welcome back, Chopblock. Weren't you on some peyote induced vision quest eating wild berries and varment, wondering aimlessly through some hiking trails?...or was it- wondering aimlessly through the aisles of a Walmart doing those same things? I can't remember.
Thanks! I tried the latter for a while, until I was informed that the Creatures Of Walmart are protected species under state and federal murder laws. So I reluctantly hit the trail and did about 2000 miles of the AT between peyote episodes and run-ins with the local yeti population.
It was 25 years ago and most still know what it refers to. Cleveland by a mile
Lifelong Browns fan here..i have given up all hope..the end
You Lions and Browns fans complain. But at least your teams have won SOMETHING the last 100 years. That is more than the poor Cubs fans can say.
Cubs fans piss me off more than any other fan base on this subject. Did the Blackhawks just recently win two Stanley cups? Did you have the 85 Bears?? Did you have MICHAEL FUCKING JORDAN!??
Shut up Cubs fans. We have had NOTHING in any sport since Jim Brown and it wasn't even a super bowl. In the last year I just watched the Ravens and LeFuck win their second championships.
was a sweet rant. Well done sir!
I grew up a Lions fan (father was season ticket holder) and went to virtually all the games from 1968 to 1981. Then I moved to Cleveland in 1987 and now for the last 4 years I've been a Brown's season ticket holder.
When it comes to being a connoisseur of shitty football I believe I have no equal.
Just to upvote you
Please don't even think of moving to Boston until Brady retires, okay?
My Dad was a Browns fan, but I grew in up in the Detroit area. My two favorite teams: the Lions followed by the Browns. My Brown fandom probably peaked in the 80s. (Ernest Byner NOOOOOO.)
Shitty football - we haz it.
A Browns fan I work with showed me the "Factory of Sadness" rant the other day.

I laughed but man, I feel sorry for Browns fans at this point.
I respect Browns fans, but at the same time I don't get how someone can be so devoted to an expansion team. I prefer a team with a rich history, like the Carolina Panthers, or Jacksonville Jaguars.
You'll never convince me that the game means more to the players than it does to the fans.
Thats too funny lol
