I checked the Admin & Moderator logs and it shows no moderation this hour. Perhaps when you edited your posts to add the link you erased it?

"You are a freaking Yippee Homo.
This off-season, I couldn't be further turned-off by ... sports. Each time I receive propaganda in my email box about the Browns I want to reply 'Quit sending me this bullshit until you win something!'. I am so tired of being stroked by paper messages directed at season ticket holders. Just xxxxing Win dumb-asses. I have had it.
If the Steelers even make it to the Super Bowl this season I might have a postal melt-down.
Dick Jauron, Mike Holmgren, Heckert, McCoy, Hillis, Mack, Rubin, Haden, Ward and anyone else associated with this team can kiss my ass. These guys are nothing until they produce in this big cry baby league.
The #6 overall draft pick we select can kiss my ass too."

I feel ya cal... If the Steelers get to the Super Bowl, my wife and I have already decided we aren't going to bother to watch! I have no rooting interest in that team whatsoever other than to watch them lose. So with that, I'm saving myself the aggrevation! It will be a movie marathon that day. I understand why you're turned off. The Browns who showed such promise went into a tail spin down the stretch, only to see us "rebuild" once again! The Cavs went down the shitter! And the freakin' Indians will continue to be the farm team for other teams, because the Dolans won't spend the money to get legitimate free agents. I'm sick of the losing, and being told to be patient. We've been patient enough! QUIT THE BULLSHIT EXCUSES AND FIND A WAY TO GET THE APPROPRIATE PLAYERS AND PERSONNEL HERE! I know come the draft, and training camp I'll be excited as usual, but right now this just flat out sucks! And no I'm not jumping off of the bandwagon by any means. Just frustrated with the current situation with the Cleveland sports scene. But, because I'm a fan, I'll come back for more. The question is, will other fans do so? If this team gets off to a slow start again next season, are we going to resort to black outs like we almost had in 2009? Remember it took businesses and tv stations to buy up the remaining tickets. Not to mention we needed to extend the deadline to do so. I can't imagine in this economy that businesses, and tv stations are going to buy up the remaining tickets this time around.

What happened to general human decency? Did that go out the window with anonymity?
Do you generally walk up to people you hear talking in a restaurant that you don't agree with and call them douchebags or whatever?
Is it because you generally can't see or feel the reaction, except in emotionless text, that you think that to be a "man" you have to ignore insults on a message board?
What about being a man, and following the golden rule? Or at the very least, if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything?
Being a man has nothing to do with not allowing something to upset you. But acting like an adult instead of a sophomoric prick is being a man.

that would be the best thing to happen to this team. if the cleveland fans were able to drop merchandise sales by 60% or more and have at least 1/2 the home games blacked out i think you would see INSTANT change within your organization.most owners can give two shits about what their fans think...............unless, it hurts their wallet.
My question is and without the "it will never happen bullshit" that generally comes out of the mouth of Steelers fans... if the roles were reversed, would Steelers fans do the same? I think that Browns fans are shell shocked because of the move, and are afraid if they stop buying tickets, stop buying merchandise, and actually hit Lerner in the wallet then he'll just say f*** it and move the team again! Not saying that is the case, but that could be a part of it. A former coworker of mine a few years back said that the reason that the Browns aren't improving is because they don't need to. The asses are still being put in the seats, and he mentioned that Browns games are an excuse to tailgate, get drunk, and party! In a way that make sense what he is saying. When the game kicks off there are still a lot of empty seats. You don't see that in other stadiums. I mean, I'm not going to lie, I drank when I went to the games but tailgating was not the first priority. Watching the game was. With that, when a group of us had season tickets we had one couple that would go down to the food court at halftime, you know... to smoke, piss, eat, buy beer ect... they would disappear, and wouldn't come back until well into the 4th qtr. It was like, what the hell is the point?
I think Browns fans do NEED to make more noise and do something to get the front offices attention to either shit or get off the pot! If you go to a restaurant that continues to provide shitty service, will you continue to patronize that same restaurant!? But on the same token, I just don't want what happened on November 6, 1995 to happen again!

The sad part is posters like that is why I no longer post on cleveland.com forum. Apparently Advance.net thinks it is ok to employ Mod trolls. I had been posting over there for over 5 years and stopped due to trolls. And the mods condone and actually emphasize trolling. Ask cddbrowns who posts on here. He left for pretty much the same reasons. Just the sad state of the internet and people who do not have a real life or common sense. So that forums loss, is this forums gain.

I must have grown up in a different world than some of you. In my first hour of recess in the 1st grade I heard more threats, foul language and politically incorrect sayings than I have ever read on this board.
PS--After I beat the crap out of all the other first graders who pist me off, it stopped.

Longhorn,
I would agree with you. But we are talking about these internet tough guys who have a case of keyboard courage. Are you going to fly out to AZ and beat someone up for what they said to you on the internet? Much different than meeting someone on the play ground. At least on the playground you can beat the tar out of them. Not so much on the internet.

No, because I realize the internet isn't the real world. My "friends" don't live on Facebook, if I want to talk to someone I call them up, and if I allow someone to REALLY get me pissed via some electronic format I deserve it. If someone reads this board regularly, surely they know about 70% of what is said here is in jest or to provoke a sprited response from the other side. If someone takes everything said on this board seriously, they need to contact a virtual shrink to get some virtual therapy so they can overcome their virtual disease.
Now I have to run. I need to go water my crops in Farmville or my family will starve from lack of food.
The one and only time losing is acceptable is when it involves your virginity. -

totally agree. same argument has been made for years and years with crap radio (howard stern for example) and tv. just turn the channel or like you said, don't read it. and those don't don't like it, don't post and say so.

i think people (me included, of course) wouldn't say half the shit they do if they were sitting across the table (or in my case, bar) from someone face to face. it is all about anonymity. yes this is a browns forum and with me as probably most of the people that post here, my blood bleeds brown and orange. we all have points and counterpoints, "we should do it this way" or "we should do it that way". yes it can and does go over the top to the point of boiling over but that doesn't mean that one doesn't respect the other for their views. you can still be an adult but flip out, correct? certain buttons are pushed, someone digs their claw into that one meaty area of your head and it just makes you scream (figuratively). i could say you (not you exactly) are not a man because you didn't choose to serve your country, instead you wanted to march for peace. who is right?
you can't question one's manhood because they choose to voice their opinions in ways that you don't agree with. note: patrick henry. (alright, i know).
and as far as message boards etc. people are going to continue to post shit because it stirs reaction. i could choose to hit the ignore option so i don't have to see my discontents' posts. but it's like a car wreck, you really don't want to see it........but you kinda do. (love ya wreebs and hlliz twins!)

honestly, and it's hard for someone who hasn't gone through what cleveland went through with it's team to know how they'd react for sure, but i'd like to think that this is what i would do.would i do it after 1yr? no. after 3yrs? no. after 10yrs and no hope in sight? yeah, i'd probably do it.
i like to come on this board and give you guys hell, but it's all in good fun. i was devastated too when i heard our biggest rivals would be moving to baltimore as a different team. i thought it was garbage, and i know and respect the fans of the browns enough to know that in no way was this something they wanted.
i don't know exactly where the line is but at some point fans DO have the resposibility (if they are true fans) to not let ownership worry about making bucks and not winning championships.
i don't know how much you can push your ownership before they'd be willing to just get rid of the team, but i don't think the NFL will let a franchise leave cleveland like it did before. all i can say is i hope things turn around for your franchise.
HERE'S TO THE BROWNS BEING THE STEELERS TOP COMPETITION IN OUR DIVISION (not the ravens) FROM NOW ON!!!!!!!!!
Nice, respectful and well thought out post. Thank you. I remember when Steelers fans were wearing the orange ribbons in support for the Cleveland fans. It was very cool. I'm not going to go out and say that there is no hope, but I will say that we were just starting to put it together and then more changes were made again! So with that, now I EXPECT steady improvement! If it's going to take 2-3 years until we get to sniff contention, fine! But I want to see progress with each season. None of this 5-11 BS. Ws should increase and Ls should decrease!

seriously though. i think a forum is a place for people to post what they want. a lot of people disagree with each other and fight to the bitter end about topics. some just come on to stir the shit pot. some come on and try to invoke a laugh. i can bitch at someone cuz they don't agree with my point of view, and it might ensue in a couple of personal tit for tat shit, but aren't we all browns' fans in the end?
