TAMPERING and Censorship,
-
I'm a life long BROWNS fan living in Western Pennsylvania for the past 35 years.... When I found this site in 2005 its became my oasis for Browns information along with some interesting chatter with other Browns fans....
Lately however, the Steeler trolls seem to have "taken over" the board with multiple posts chastizing anyone who would dare to say anything about their beloved Steelers... In my way of thinking these people are Steeler fans not football fans and their presence on our board is to primarily poke fun and draw attention to themselves...
Anything we can do to "stick it to them" is OK in my book.... You come into my house show respect or get the hell out....
I guess you have to live among them to understand where I'm coming from... In any case, I thought altering the names was damn funny.....

Where are you from in western PA? I grew up near Meadville.

Meadville is a nice town. How could it not be, being named after an alcoholic beverage after all.

Remember, they're Steeler fans, it's our board, not theirs.In any regards, it was just temporary fun .... It all started when one poster said he'd get a big kick if the mods change "robrotron" to "homotron" ... and he seemed to take it well, so I messed with a few others.
I figured "Mom" (Kathy) was going to yell at me soon anyway, so I'll stop ... c'mon, Buns of Steel was a little funny. They can change them back now and I won't mess with them, scouts honor. Or, if they PM me, I'll change them for them.
Sorry you got riled, dude, we need you on that nightwatch wall. We want you on that wall. We need you on that wall!

OK, it was funny for about 24 hours. I just felt it was a little over the top. It would have gotten you punched out in a bar. We've had our laugh, and let's move on. And I have to say, most of the Steeler fans here really aren't trolls in the truest sense- it's not their fault that they were born in Pittsburgh.

If it has alcohol in it, I've probably tried it at least once. And mead or "honey wine" I've tried several times, and I don't much care for it. I'll put it on the level of Sake for enjoyment level. As an aside, if it has sugar in it, or has something that can be converted to sugar (corn, rice, wheat, barley) it can be fermented. I actually have a recipe for green tomato wine laying around somewhere- if you want to talk about an unappetizing idea.
PS- in the beer department I have only one rule A-B-M "anything but Miller", it's why Miller is in clear bottles- the hops & brew are so cooked and pasteurized the beer is dead as a doornail, and can't go skunky.

I was born in greenville hospital.
I grew up in Linesville. My dad lives in Espyville which is a straight shot up 18 from Greenville. My aunt and uncle live in Hermitage.
Small world dude !

Ah, the spillway, where the ducks walk on top of the fish.....
All kidding aside, this is some damn nice country and the people (even Steeler fans) are very friendly...
The Greenville hospital (UPMC) no longer does birthin of babies---you have to go to the upmc campus in Farrell...

Nobody out here in Indy believes me when I tell them that the spillway is a popular tourist attraction where you throw moldy bread to carp off of a bridge. hahaha

Half, some people make their living selling that moldy bread to tourists... As you know, the carp are so concentrated that when the bread is thrown the ducks will literally walk on top of the fish to get the bread...
I have a small farmette at Pymatuning where we spend the week ends. Being retired allows us to pick & choose where we lay our heads...

No what it does is SPEAK VOLUMES about Cleveland fans . SELF Proclaimed "BEST FANS ON EARTH"...Sh**... Funny how when Forbes Said the Cleveland Franchise was worth a little more than Pittsburgh You guys were like LOL...Were better than You. But when they said Pittsburgh Fans the 2nd best in ALL SPORTS period... You dont get that . And WHY Aint Browns fans ever high up on that list
Actually, the Browns fans were 3rd on that list. And the only reason they weren't higher was because the team was losing a lot, which the fans, of course, cannot help.

Forbes Magazine: Steelers Fans No. 2 In American Sports Fan Rankings
Posted on August 3, 2010
Forbes Magazine recently came out with its best American Sports Fan rankings, and the Pittsburgh Steelers were No. 2 on the list, trailing only the insufferable Boston Red Sox fans (I blame Jimmy Fallon and Fever Pitch for this) and just ahead of the Detroit Red Wings. Pittsburgh’s other professional sports team, the Penguins (no, I didn’t forget about the Pirates) came in at No. 6.
You can read about how they came up with the rankings by pasting below in your address-bar.

Said Forbes about Steelers fans…
TYPICAL Gipper you`re a fake and a Lier.... The Browns are No. #3 on that list Huh ??? NO DALLAS New Eng and Indy. only other Top 10 teams on that list .... you BS Artist.
Maybe we are looking at different lists. I posted the list I was talking about.

But I do notice from that list that the only "fan bases" that are listed are those of teams that have won a lot. Like someone said: the 49er fan base was "the greatest" when they were winning a lot. Where have they been lately.
And do even you realistically believe that The Indianapolis Colt fan base is "better" somehow than the Browns fan base
?Its Forbes Gipper...and My Bad if you are looking at a different list , maybe Lier is overblown.

If it has alcohol in it, I've probably tried it at least once. And mead or "honey wine" I've tried several times, and I don't much care for it. I'll put it on the level of Sake for enjoyment level. As an aside, if it has sugar in it, or has something that can be converted to sugar (corn, rice, wheat, barley) it can be fermented. I actually have a recipe for green tomato wine laying around somewhere- if you want to talk about an unappetizing idea.
PS- in the beer department I have only one rule A-B-M "anything but Miller", it's why Miller is in clear bottles- the hops & brew are so cooked and pasteurized the beer is dead as a doornail, and can't go skunky.

Go to Lake Mead (there's that word again) out by Vegas to see disgusting carp climbing all over each other by the docks.
Talk about creepy.

I agree on Mead.
I do prefer Miller products over Bud products.
