Best/Worst Memory
-
People blame Byner, but look at Slaughter just sit there with his thumb up his ass.
-
The worst has to be this by far.
I laugh a little when the younger guys mention things that happened in the last 10 years. Can't blame you though not your fault wen you were born. My thing is that I'm not old enough to have witnessed this teams success either.

I hope the best Browns memory is still to come.

My best memory was being at the double overtime playoff win against the Jets. The worst is hard to pick between the drive or the fumble. The drive was like slowly bleeding to death, but the fumble was like having a heart attack. Either way it SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, I remember this. Except the game was blacked out in this area and shown on Monday night, and it was in black and white.

Best in my memory was the 1964 Championship win against the Colts, & it was a 27-zip SKUNK to boot!!! That was soooo nice. I hope we get to celebrate another in the not so distant future.

My favorite was my first game in 55 with my dad.
The worst was the fumble....I curled up under the sheets in the fetal position for 3 days after that.
I may have even called for my Mama.

My worst memory is easy. Red Right 88. i was there with my Dad and brother. i just looked it up and it was 4 degrees.
Worst sports day of my life. Guys, it is hard to imagine what that day was like. We exited the Terminal Tower (Rapid Transit train) at 11:30 AM. It was misery walking to that game, sitting/standing there until 4:30, walking back to the Terminal Tower, and then the train breaks down between Triskett and West Park. We had to exit the train and walk to the West Park Station (not too far) in the snow and single digit temperatures. Then we had to call a friend for a ride to the Brookpark station to get our car. We got home, frozen, about 7:00PM. i don't think the outcome of the game would have mattered much. That day was awful.
My best memory is a tough one. There are so many, back to watching the 1965 Championship game on TV, to listening to Ken Coleman calling the game on the radio, to later listening the Gib Shanley call the game on the radio (the best ever). i've seen so many games down at the Stadium from the Sipe and Kosar years. It is hard to choose.
In many ways my best memory might be a loss to the Steelers 43-0. They kicked our ass is the opener of 1999, but we got our team and our history back. We have not yet recovered, but we're going to beat the shit out of them in 2011. i can't wait.

Best memory, the 64 championship.. I was a Jr in college and a frat brother was from Cleveland.. He had a 45 record that went hi ohio from Cleveland that he seemed to play non stop... We cut classes and went to Cleveland the day after the win and spent 3 days drinking in almost every bar in the city (at least it felt that way)...
The worst memory was Model on the podium in Baltimore as he was being welcomed to that city. He better never get in the HOF, if so I'll be there booing my bloody ass off.....
Another worst memory was the passing of Ernie Davis... I thought he'd be the next Jim Brown...
Peace

Best moment - Bill Belichik kicking Kosar's ass off the team. Jeez, I danced in the streets that day.Fook you. Then he plays his ass off to help Dallas win a ring.

Mostly the Steelers have benefitted from the bad calls in my recollection.
The bad call on the Renfro catch which would have possibly put the Oilers into the SB.
That play was tantamount to say, if the Santonio Holmes catch in the Steelers last SB had been ruled bad....and if there had not been an opportunity to overturn it.
The Seahawks game, which many people think the Steelers benefitted greatly from bad calls.
Possibly any number of others.
If in fact you did have a bad call against you that caused you to lose such an important game, that is salved by the fact that you have had in the interim all those bad calls go your way.
(plus, the team you follow has had legitimate success. The Browns haven't had that.)

What the hell was SLaughter going to do? Defy time and space? Byner goofed. He should have tucked the ball away, he was exposing the ball and he got used like a cheap hooker.Slaughter could have sold the play as if he were running a pattern OR he could have *gasp* blocked.
Do you think Hines Ward would have just stood there? You know Randy Moss would have. And there is a reason that Ward has two rings and Moss has none - even though he's come close. It's those small things that make the difference between winning and losing. Take accountability instead of shifting blame.

Slaughter was out there in no mans land doing nothing". He would of defied something if he would of got a hand on the man who he didn't block.

It's so hard to pin down these type of questions to one choice.
The 1980 season had so many unbelievable endings, but I'm going with Gerald McNeil, the Ice Cube, returning a kickoff for a TD at 3 Rivers Stadium in 1986, and we finally won in that dreaded stadium. I was at a clambake, the whole place went nuts.
Worst memory (of a game) was losing to the Dolphins in 1972 playoff game. We had those bastards beat in the Orange Bowl and blew it late.
Worst memory was mentioned by others...Modell taking the team to Baltimore. I ended up leaving work I was so pissed off.
