Fans Cheer Anderson's Injury?
-
Wow. DA really went off! If he had shown this kind of fire about playing football games previously, Phil may not have been forced to make him sit. It's hard to excel at anything if you don't care. Classless. There may have been a few cheers, but not many. Hey DA, in case you didn't realize this, fans like winners.

Bullshit. These Browns fans aren't your daddy's Browns fans, they are some of the most uneducated football fans I've been privy to sit among. I'm glad it ain't just me who notices though, as I was surprised how many around me in the stadium were in disgust of the timely Boo's and jeers.

No they don't, he got booed last year too when he won 7 straight at home.
Fans like Brady Quinn. Quinn's presence is clearly more important than winning football games.
If Quinn's not in uniform, there is apparently no reason to show up for the game.
The half-filled stadium was covered with Cowher signs and the only thing on anybodies mind was to boo each play.
On the 3rd down pass to Jason Wright on the first drive where he got tackled on the sidelines short of the 1st, there was loud booing. At that point it was clear that the crowd had one thing on it's mind....a Colts blowout win.
I actually got the feeling that the crowd was upset that the Browns were ahead.

So now...60,000-70,000 fans showed up at CBS for no reason? They don't want the Browns to win. That's your guys' pathetic, Retarded reasoning?
You guys really can't see that we're sick of a Retard losing games single-handedly for us? And that he had very little to do with last year's winning in the first place? The only sorry fans around here are you guys who would rather settle for a flash in the pan QB who belongs on the bench the rest of his career, than strive for a real quarterback.
Lum is here ONLY for Derek Anderson. Wasn't here before, won't be here much after. Browns fans like the Browns. Atenears and Lumberg like DA.
For the last fucking time...DA had NOTHING to do with the winning last year. He's a lethargic, brainless loser who got lucky for a streak of games last year. That was his 15 minutes, and it's over. Now try to cheer for the Browns to win next year instead of wherever DA goes.

I agree. You have a lot of punks attending the games. Most stand up the entire game so you have to stand up just to watch the frigging thing. Also I think a lot of the people attending the games are not season ticket holders, but people who buy the tickets from someone. In the old stadium my brother had season tickets, everyone knew each other in the area where he sat. They were not punk kids, but people who loved football. Everyone drank, but didn't act like buffoons.

You don't accidentally throw 29 TDs, Bounty Hunter. As Phil said last year, it was DA who "saved all their jobs".
And there sure as shit was no 60,000 to 70,000 at the game yesterday.

Try about 50,000, of which about 20,000 of those showed up to drink and be an asshole.

Who was responsible for our wins last season, if DA wasn't any part of it? Braylon? (LMFAO), Winslow? Joe Thomas? Jamal Lewis? Our Defense? Coaching? Joe J? ... Derek Anderson's play made all of the above better, you dumbass.
The only sorry fans around here are you guys who would rather settle for a flash in the pan QB who belongs on the bench the rest of his career, than strive for a real quarterback.
And your part of the group who always is calling for the next guy. "Put Cribbs in at QB!" "Give it to Harrison!" "Give Heiden more reps!" "Run behind Joe Thomas!" "Put Belle in!"
we are who we are and the best chance we have had at winning the past dozen years is with Derek Anderson at QB. You can call him whatever you want, but until another QB steps in and leads us to an 11 win season, he will always be our best QB whether he is a flash-in-the-pan r not, he's our best hope, was on the Browns roster, signed, sealed and on the field and you cried like a little bitch. You suck, and represent the new paper Browns fan.

You are a flash-in-the-pan-fan, when did you join us here?

Cheer the Browns to win next year or Brady Queen? Lums and I where cheering the Browns this year while you took the season off in protest because your guy wasn't playing and you couldn't wear your new #10 Jersey with Pride.

Why is it any big deal if the remaining fans cheered an injured Anderson? Can you blame them? At least they stayed around after watching 2 1/2 hours of minimal offense in a cold rain. Then what little chance they have at seeing a rare home win goes right out the door when Anderson fumbles the ball away.
I'm willing to bet that had Romeo keeled over from a heart attack they would have cheered even louder, and if Savage slipped and fell out of his seat they would have cheered louder still.
It's nothing but a sick joke on this town to have an inferior QB stay healthy the entire time when we'd rather see Quinn play. Then as soon as Quinn gets hurt DA goes down? Unbelievable.
I hope someone holds Shaffer accountable for that play, in this life or the next. Allowing a smaller man to bull rush you into your QB is ridiculous.

Speaking as one of you long term, long time Browns fans, these fans are an embarrassment. The same meatheads that likley threw batteries a few years ago. I lived in Atlanta when that happened and sent in a thread they actually printed in the Atlanta Journal Constitution that apologized to the opponents fans and NFL for the behavior of some foolish fans, so as to try to save face for Browns fanbase.
For years I have always run into people that even though the team was weak, would always say ' Browns fans - most loyal, decent, classiest fans in the league'. Not anymore. I really don't care to be scrutinized when I wear any Browns gear out because too many dickheads have damaged the image. Here's an idea, go route for the Raiders or Jets, they're used to that crap and feed on it.
As for DA and the season, I am one that wanted to see DA sit and BQ in. I was and am, as many of you, so annoyed with this season, I was done a few weeks ago. The Ravens game, then the Denver game, then Houston. This team dropped out weeks ago. That much disfunction does not come from the QB. It comes from RAC and his crew. A strong leader role would whip a team with this much talent (I have to say tongue in cheek anymore, not sure if I'm just fooling myself) could be disciplined to perform if they had a coach with some imagination on offense, emotion on the side, etc., etc.
Finally, as for DA getting hurt, hate to see that hapen to any player. DA DID NOT DESERVE any crap from the fans and for his sake, I hope he goes onto to better roles elsewhere. He WAS a very large part of the apparent fake success we saw last year, so regardless of this years outcome, he deserves that much respect.
Future - BQ and a strong coach is what we need.
All the best DA for a strong recovery.

Good Post, I agree 100%. Please, post more, the wrong side of our fan base is being heard right now.

I'm ashamed to be a Browns die-hard right now. I'll never root for ANY injury. I know the QB situation has been annoying this year...wish we just had one guy and knew he was the one to lead us forward. Guess it's true that when you have two QBs - you have none.
Do we forget that these players are human just like us? Do we forget that these people are not just players but part of a team that wants to win just like we do?
I know not every fan felt compelled to cheer for DA as he lay on the ground. But, I'm truly ashamed to walk into work today and listen to colleagues and Bengal fans talk about how sad it is for "fans" of any team to cheer for injury. We've gone through tough season after tough season and our great fan base has proven to be one of the best! Not this time. We just lost a ton of respect for acting so childish.
We can now be compared to the Raiders as a fan base. We look like idiots (even though it was not all of us rooting for our own player down)....
-
Yes, I was at the game, and thought the cheering was classless. I don't like Anderson, but he didn't deserve it. I was also at the Ravens game when fans cheered when Couch was hurt. I hate that shit, makes all Browns fans look like idiots.
That worked out real well...the only QB to take us to the playoffs in our rebirth gets shafted by our fans & Butch Davis. IMHO, it was Butch Davis who's put us in this stupid hole to begin with, and RAC has been unable to get us out with his ineptitude.
It was sickening to see so many empty seats yesterday. Even in the Paul McDonald-crap year of 1984, the place had 60,000 people there. I was at games in 1974 &75 when the place was full and we really, really were awful then too. Somehow, some way, this franchise has got to get this thing pointed in the right direction. There is a whole generation of younger fans who don't know what winning football looks like, and guys like me keep waiting for it to return. I'm not ever going to stop being a Browns fan, but it's getting harder & harder to take.
-
The biggest reason I sold my tickets for yesterday was the fans from last week. The team sucking didn't help but it was just depressing to sit there and hear my fellow fans booing their team and being drunken assholes. I will not buy another ticket untill quite a few things have changed. I had more fun not watching the game this week than I would have if I watched it.

Bullshit. These Browns fans aren't your daddy's Browns fans, they are some of the most uneducated football fans I've been privy to sit among. I'm glad it ain't just me who notices though, as I was surprised how many around me in the stadium were in disgust of the timely Boo's and jeers.

Well of course we're not too bright. If we were, we'd pick a better team to root for.

Take a look at WPB Browns Fans post on 'QB Contracts'. Not to stick up for foolish acts by dumbass fans, but THAT is the reality of why fans act like they do. Players getting paid MILLIONS of dollars and yet they don't particularly NEED to perform. For Millions, they should be on the money every single time they are asked to play. 'Perfect' - always - when their paychecks rate in ranges most of the fans may see in 20 or 30 or 40 years combined.
These fans, again, are an embarrassment, but WPB's post gives food for thought. It annoys the heck out of me that a guy can make that kind of money and be allowed to have bad days, weeks, even months. Still, I'd like to think I'd never embarrass myself by cheering an injury of anyone else. That's horseshit.
I sincerely hope the lack of attendance does not make the organization think about relocating again, but instead what do they need to do actually provide what the fans want - make a winning team with consistent players.

Do you know that I saw someone wearing a Wally Rainer Jersey yesterday at the game?

USA Today: Another Browns low: Fans cheer Anderson's injury
When the home fans let loose with cheers for your injury, it's probably time to leave town.
Having heard the rah-rahs in Cleveland yesterday as he limped off the field with a sprained MCL, Derek Anderson understands that, and let it be known he doesn't expect to be back with the Browns.
When someone said "see you later" to Anderson in the locker room the quarterback replied, "Yeah, maybe in another life."
"They were cheering the fact that I was hurt. They don't like me," Anderson said. "That's well known."
"We love our fans, but that just wasn't needed", said the Browns' Josh Cribbs after Cleveland's 10-6 loss to Indianapolis.
The Browns fans who cheered might want to take note of the fact their ugly show came on a day of tortuous weather as Anderson outplayed Peyton Manning. Anderson was only 16-for-26 for 110 yards, but his passer rating of 71 was better than Manning's 46.8.
But Anderson did at least get the pleasure of taking a parting shot at his rival for the Browns QB job, Brady Quinn. He told reporters he had injured his MCL once before, in college, when his Oregon State team "waxed Notre Dame," then quarterbacked by Quinn.
Referencing the 2004 Insight Bowl, where he was MVP in a 38-21 victory, Anderson said, "Let that be known that I beat him."
-
To me, Anderson bragging at Quinn's expense was pretty classless and also sort of pathetic in that DA had to go back to college to compare games.
Quinn's been nothing but gracious and supportive of DA both when he was a backup and a starter, and Anderson's comments were meant to taunt the fan base and humiliate Quinn.
Sad.

Wow, if that doesn't prove that "Lumberg" is Anderson, I don't know what will.
I wasn't at the game, and didnt hear the cheering, but it's obviously a crummy thing to do, to cheer for an injury. However, respect is earned, not handed out like a raffle ticket, and the above quote exemplifies the attitude (whether reality or perceived) that garnered no respect for Anderson from the fans.
