Cleveland is the most fucked up city in the country on the sports front.
I heard staggering trivia today on the radio. The Cleveland Browns is one of only 4 pro football teams that has NEVER in the history of their team EVER played in a Superbowl. Shit, the Browns is one of the oldest teams in the league for Christ sakes! The only other old team that has never played in a Superbowl game was the Philadelphia Eagles. The other 2 teams are relatively new to the league - one was Jacksonville - I can't remember the other.
Cleveland sucks in so, so many ways. Pro sports is just one of those ways!

You act as af pro football never existed before the era of Super Bowls. FACT: The Browns have more professional championships than Shitsburgh. FACT. The Browns played in the title game their FIRST 11 YEARS in existence. FACT. The Browns absolutely destroyed the "world champion" Eagles in their first NFL game ever....and that game was in Philadelphia.
I could go on and on and on.
You are correct about Cleveland, but the Ravens were the old Cleveland Browns, so this is really the expansion Browns.
Even though I hate hairyfiddler, and I'm not a Browns fan, I have to give him credit. He's right on this one. The Browns won a shitload of NFL titles in the 50's and shit before there was a superbowl. FYI, for those kids too young to know, the NFL existed long before the AFL. When they combined, it was the NFC vs the AFC for the NFL title, otherwise known as the superbowl, and has been ever since.
The Browns have a very rich history.
Fuck you fiddler.
The Cleveland Cavaliers lost their way into the NBA record book in fitting fashion -- not with a blowout, but with the kind of head-slapping plays typical of a team that can't do anything right.
Like a 7-foot center losing a jump ball to a 6-foot-2 guard. And a decent outside shooter deciding to pass as time expired instead of putting up a potential tying 3-pointer.

Who really gives a shit what the Cleveland Browns did in the 1950's for Christ sakes?
The real question is 'WTF have the Browns done in the last 45 years?'
The days of 'ol with Jimmy Brown are long gone you old farts.
Jump in your time machines and press the fast forward button!
The City of Cleveland sucks ass.
Yeah...who cares what Babe Ruth or Jim Thorpe did either...they are irrelevant.
Actually Hairy, I think Ruth IS somewhat irrelevant, because he played in a segregated league. Same for Di Maggio, same for Cobb, same for a lot of guys that played pre-1947.
