The Pats, Steelers, and Ravens wont always dominate. Belichick and Brady wont always be around. The Steelers without Polyhairdo, Harrison, and Big gay would not be the same team. They will eventually fall, they just have good players/coaches right now. If the Browns had a boat load of stars like those teams then they would dominate.
THe thing about the Steelers''..when they have a bad year...it's 8-8 or 9-7..then they bounce back to 10-6 then 12-4..
I can't remebr when they had a below 500 season??..
A .500 season for the Browns is worth getting a Boner on for

Are you that young? Or just that dumb? Are you out of your Pampers? The Steelers were 6-10 in 2003. Were you bothering to watch football then or are you only like just now 10 or 12 years old.
The Browns were 10-6 just 3 years ago. Again, were you not alive and living in America?
On another thread you remarked something about "ancient history". Apparently, ancient history to you is anything over 2-3 years ago.

Why would you be a fan if you don't derive fun from it? No one forces you to be a fan. If it's going to depress you, spend your time somewhere else for goodness sake.
It could be worse, a lot worse. You could be a Steeler fan, married to your first cousin, and your mom could be pregnant by your son. Ray Stevens wrote this song about Steeler fans.

Cleveland continues on a downward spiral because there a stability issues..Lets fix it quick..5 coaches in 10 years,,anew savior who by the way will bail if a better opportunity arises..just my gut feeling..NE, Pittsburgh..they don't run coaches off every 24 months..They give them time..not here though..pathetic really and now we start over...again and again and again..GROUND HOG DAY..at least Bill Murray is funny...The Browns are not funny..just the laughing stock..depressing

This board is overrun by kids anymore. Christ, Bottlegate to them was like an ancient memory and to you and I it was like yesterday.
Not impressed. Some of these threads look like dialogue from the movie 'Bad Boys' with Sean Penn.
Here is a nice link to the Steelers records over the years. Warning: Please advise the Steeler fans on the board to not look any lower 1971.

Thanks for all of your opinions. It was a depressing night but I am over it.
Firstly, I am 20 and an adult just like the most of you. I was at bottlegate and the spetrum of human brain activity and fuction ranges from age 11 to age 20, so the perception of thought is broader, producing a realm of lost time. Hence why a 20 year old believes that when they were 11, it was ancient history.
Secondly, I need to ask you old timers something. When you rooted for the Browns in the 1960's they were on fire. Then in the 1970's everything went to hell, like it has in the 2000's. Before the Brian Sipe days, did you have this same thought process? Were there different factors? Otherwise, this is the lowest point in Cleveland Browns franchise history.
Thirdly, don't tell me I can't be a fan. I'm gonna bitch if I want to bitch. Thats the beauty of it. So shut the hell up.
Thanks

It's when the fans stop bitching, and become apathetic. That's the problem! And I really hope that apathy isn't setting in like it has with the Indians, and soon the Cavs. I feel for ya! I have a 7 year old who has only seen one winning season with the Browns (2007). I at least can hang my hat on the 80s teams, as they were in the mix as a contender, but just couldn't quite take that next step. The only thing I can preach to him right now is loyalty to his hometown, and why it's important to stick with your home teams.

Exactly. I feel like I have it worse than others sometimes because all I have known is failure. At least the elder group has tasted success.

So we had the DA/BQ rivalry. We've got the Mangini/Holmgren thing brewing. Now it looks like we're going to have to deal with the old timers/young juvenile rift.
For the record, I'm 21 years old. I grew up with my grandparents until my freshman year of high school. Then I moved in with my father, a diehard Brown since '55, and I've been taking care of him ever since. I am a hybrid if there ever was one. I had reat responsibility thrust upon me at a very young age, and I was never allowed to bitch and moan. I'm a young man with the mentality of a much older person....on most days. But I'm also still a 21 year old. So I'm going to have to side with both parties on this argument.
For us youngins', all we've seen has been turmoil and defeat. It's hard to look at the silver lining, because there hasn't been any. We don't remember the good ol' days. Just when I was starting to put together memories of the Browns, they disappear. Then, they come back, and haven't been anything worth bragging about since. I can only trust people when they say it will turn around, because I've never seen it.
But at the same time, I embrace this organization for what it is, was and will be. I know our history. I've heard about the glory days, and my father tells me every day what it was like watching them win...and win...and win. I know we're on a rough slide right now. But I'm staying strong, and everyone else is too. And that's going to make those 10-6, 11-5, 12-4 seasons all the sweeter when they finally starting rolling. Knowing that I didn't throw in the towel will prove to myself that I'm a diehard, a true Brownie. And that's what I have to look forward to during these shit years.
So, in closure, both of you shut up and root for the Browns.

In bold is the truth! No doubt. That is why I haven't stopped rooting for them. I will always root for the Browns, simply because they are the home team! But watching our division rival continue to win, while we're in what seems to be constant rebuild is frustrating. Not to mention that we have to constantly hear the bullshit from their fans!

Sorry, but I'd stop watching football all together before I'd EVER root for Pittsburgh. Just being honest. As for the draft... drafting high hasn't exactly helped us either. Only now are we starting to see the process change with bringing in guys like Haden, Ward, and even McCoy, and Alex Mack the previous year. I'm still on the fence about the Hardesty draft only because of his history of injuries, but I'm hoping that he can make a full recovery and be a nice counter to Peyton Hillis. It's not so much high drafts, but smart drafts.

Sorry, but I'll get the last word in. Be thankful you weren't born in Cinci, and have to put up with a REALLY crap owner, like Mike Brown. The guy is so tight with his money he squeaks- and the Carson Palmer episode is just one in a long line of blunders he's made. And on the bright side, the Bungles two Super Bowl visits are living proof that blind squirrels occasionally find acorns- and the Browns are long overdue to find theirs. Or perhaps you would rather be a Raiders fan, who's only hope is Al Davis dies- and soon?
At least Randy Lerner isn't afraid to spend money on the Browns- let's hope he's spent it wisely on Mike Holmgren and Tom Heckert. Time will tell.
