I was in college and on the 'Fumble' I was at a party in a packed house. We celebrated for several minutes, piled on right in the living room before we realized he had fumbled ...
I cringed at the sight of ole Horse Teeth for years. I give respect to Qb's who can put together long drives to win games though, and gave USC's young QB credit in that Win last Saturday for doing the same. (but Big Gay Ben got lucky last season)

I grew up remembersing the old Orange Crush, who rolled the Raiders back in 1977 AFC Championship game as I sat watching in my Oakland Raider cowboy hat.

In my opinion it was just as much the fact that the prevent defense and anything more that a minute + on the clock and any decent QB will typically hurt you. We were the better team! The only thing that I can say at this point in time is that "Ol' Horse teeth" is lookin real old these days. I mean REAL OLD! I mean glue factory OLD!!! Go Browns!!!!!!!!

I hate Denver and the Broncos, since the '80s losses and forever.

I hate that they wear one of our colors and they do so badly. The original uni's sucked and the new ones suck worse.

I hate that damn stripe.

I hate John Elway.

I want to destroy them tomorrow, for the past and for this season.

Scars? Yes.

I did my share of waiting and suffering as a child and teenager. As a rather young adult at the time I had high expectations of those 80's Browns.

It's too late to change now. It's already burned into my DNA. Outside of the AFC North division, there is no team I'd rather see the Browns beat in a big way.

I don't care how many times their roster has turned over since then. I'll still enjoy seeing Denver on the short end of the stick.

P.S.

I think hiwaygal's favorite term for the lot of us is "Goobers" rather than nimrods. Maybe she just likes chocolate covered peanuts.

I just want another shot at them in the AFC Championship.

Lately its been people within the Browns organization that have my bullseye.

When Belechik benched Kosar the worm began to turn. Since then there has only been sadness with breif moments of joy, but all the scars will freshen once we see the better half of.500 and approach important matchups with are enemies such as Denver and the Steelers.

I don't hold grudges against any team really.

I pretty much dislike all of them equally....or more on point, the Browns are the only pro team I root for and feel bad or mad when they lose.

I know Bob hates Denver with a passion, but myself, I think the old AFC Championship losses to old Horse teeth has worn off with me. The Bronco's don't get my blood pumping as they use to, they are almost average on my radar.
I guess winning out there in their house would mean something, but curious how many who were big Browns fans through the 80's still have deep scars?

Every time I see Elway on TV in a commercial or whatever I still get the sudden urge to kick his teeth in!

I always thought the Browns of the mid to late 80's was the best team not to make the Superbowl and thought they could won at least one if not two of those three Superbowls the Broncos were blown out in.

I never realized how much I hated the Bungles 'til I lived in their "area" for a couple of years. They hate us almost as much as we hate pissburgh and I never really considered them a threat so I just kinda brushed it off. But that damn eyebrow-less Boner Esiason just pisses me off!

i didn't realize this until a couple of years ago either. and we don't really care, kinda like how the Steel fan-base looks past us (but the players and coaches never do).

IMO i think they have linked CLE to Art Modell and harbor resentments ala Paul Brown...when in fact we should unite against whoever is the strength in the division when not playing each other. it is weird though, they really despise us.
