  • Why are you guys even giving this guy the time of day. He like every other fan that we face. The Browns are down right now.

    We have had 49er fans, Jax fans, Bungul fans, Steeler fans, Ram fans, Dolphin fans come here. They all say the same shit. We going to kick your ass blah,blah,blah...If the Browns win, it will be good game and then peace out will not here from them.

    Funny thing is, is that he says who have you beat..

    Lets see the Benguls have beat

    Cleveland 4-6

    Buffalo 5-5

    Jax 3-7

    Indy 0-10

    Seattle 4-6

    Tenn 5-5

    So three of your wins are against the same three teams we beat, Tenn sucks. I will say the Buffalo win was good for the fact when you played them they were on fire...

    Its not like you guys are much better than the Browns..Am I missing something. When did Bengal fans even had the wright to talk shit. Its like the Browns going to the Packers web site and talk shit..

    When steeler fan comes here and talk shit, he can. Raven fan can too. Bengal fan really...

    Yeah, and you Bungle fans support the hometown team with such fervor- me (of Browns season tickets AND Directv Sunday Ticket) is going to be forced to either scalp a ticket Sunday,or drive over to Columbus to see the game in real time.

    You guys are the most pathetic POS Frontrunning Fairweather fans in the NFL- bar none. Can't even sell out for a 6-4 team against a division opponent. You wouldn't even have sold out against the Steelers unless 30,000 of THEIR fans has bought tickets, how do you like playing an away game in your home stadium? It's not an uncommon occurrence. You really don't even deserve a team. Case in point- I could have easily sold my first game in Cleveland Browns Stadium for $500 bucks each on e-Bay. I had zero trouble getting 4 tickets direct from the Bungle ticket office for the first game at Paul Brown, In case you've forgotten- the Browns won.

    You know the Bengals actually have sold out most games since PBS was opened, and if you remember, the beginning of those years the Bengals were absolutely terrible, still sold out. Bengal games sold out almost every game until last year, quite frankly us Bengal fans got tired of how the organization was being run by that clown Mike Brown, so many quit buying tickets, and are waiting to see if this year is a fluke or the real deal. I, however, am at every Bengals game section 120 rooting them on to victory.

    Har har. The Browns have sold out EVERY GAME since 1999 despite sucking worse than the Bengals. Don't spout your "most games" lamer stuff. Yeah, I live in SW Ohio, Palmer and the playoff team? we love ya. Go 3-13, ghost town.

    You sold out one game this year- Steelers. FACT. Wouldn't have sold it out except for Steeler Fans. FACT.

    How do you know? Not like you'll be able to watch the game if you live in Cinncinnati! They should rename them the Cinncinnati Blackouts. Most PATHETIC fans in the NFL. Get fucked

    At least our fans have an actual quality team to root for unlike that PATHETIC team you call the Browns in Cleveland.

    You have a quality team and you STILL cannot fill the stadium. PUSSIES! You are the most pathetic group of fans in the NFL!

  • As a Ravens' fan, I'm pulling hard for the Browns this weekend. I usually cheer for you guys anyway, but this weekend we in Ravens Nation needs you to upset the clowns from the Queen City. The Battle of Ohio needs to be won in Cleveland.

  • @king-ghoolie-lives said:

    On this one I have to agree. Year in and year out Browns fans show up much more faithfully to support their team.

    http://espn.go.com/nfl/attendance

    Considering the Browns have no playoff hopes, and the Bengals are in the thick of it, the stats REALLY make Bengals fans look bad.

    I can bitch about this franchise all I want, but fan loyalty?

    Browns Hands Down.

    Any questions?

    Actually, Dear Ghoolmeister, that link is all the proof I've ever needed- as if I needed anymore proof. 6-4, in the playoff hunt, and DEAD LAST in % of capacity. Mike Brown sucks as an owner- so does (your terms Randy Lerner). There's a Cincinnati Browns Backers Club- don't recall any Cleveland Bengals Club lately. 🙂

    A little geography lesson- Dayton is about 20 miles farther from Cincinnati than Akron is from Cleveland- throwing out the Frontrunning Steeler Fags in both towns, even with the string of down years the Browns have had, the split in Dayton is about 40- Browns, 60 Bengals. In Akron, I seriously doubt the Bengals have more than a 2% following.

  • Browns 26

    Bengals 17

    The Browns, clinging to a 19-17 lead with 1:22 to play. Dalton's pass batted in the air & Chris Gocong makes his first play of 2011, a 72 yd INT for a TD to ice the game.

  • Let's make sure Sunday's game adds to the Worst Moments in Bengals history and not to the 5 Best Moments in Cincinnati Bengals History Remember Silly Sam Wyche?

  • The outcome of this game is not going to be a good one for you Brownie fans, no sir. AJ Green IS going to play, and will start. Haden got away with so many holding calls on Green in the first game, I'm surprised Haden didn't rip Green's jersey off, with that said, expect Green to burn Haden a few times Sunday, heck, Simpson might even burn Haden. The defense is going to sack McCoy a good 3-4 times, and it doesn't really matter who starts for you at RB because they won't get anything against this defense anyways. Care to give me some proof that this won't happen? Oh, and one more thing: WHO-DEY!

    Cleveland 4-6

    Buffalo 5-5

    Jax 3-7

    Indy 0-10

    Seattle 4-6

    Tenn 5-5

    So three of your wins are against the same three teams we beat, Tenn sucks. I will say the Buffalo win was good for the fact when you played them they were on fire...

    Its not like you guys are much better than the Browns..Am I missing something. When did Bengal fans even had the wright to talk shit. Its like the Browns going to the Packers web site and talk shit..

    When steeler fan comes here and talk shit, he can. Raven fan can too. Bengal fan really...

    Our 4 losses have been by a total of 21 points. Tennessee beat you by 18. That gives you a 3 point margin of your losses compared to ours. Seeing that you have lost 2 more games than we have, and we beat you by 10, and you could only beat the Seachickens by 3 in a game totaling 9 points, I don't see how you believe we are not that much better than you.

    By your reasoning, since you held the Seahawks to only 3 points and won, then you are better than the Ravens, who got their asses handed to them by the Seahawks.

    We have the "right" to talk shit to you, because we have been to 2 Super Bowls and been in the playoffs twice since your last time in 2002.

    But all of the records and wins/losses is irrelevant, each and every time we play each other. No matter which team is doing good each year, we always have a game that goes to the 4th quarter, and sometimes down to the last minute. And it's because of that, I look forward to each and every time we play you guys. Blow outs are all fine and dandy, but I want a game that puts you on the edge of your seat till the last play. That's football, and that is what the Bengals and Browns do twice a year.

    We are scarce. And believe me, it pisses us off just as much as everyone else when the bandwagoners jump on when we have a decent/good season.

    Kind of like how all of a sudden there are so many Green Bay fans now-a-days.

    Bills fan here. I'll be rooting hard for Cleveland this week. If by some miracle Buffalo beats the Jets, then a Cincy loss on Sunday and then against Pittsburgh will put us back in the playoff picture. Granted we win our next two.

    Okay, so I joined just to lay this out for you. The browns cheapest ticket is MASSIVELY cheaper than a bengals ticket. No offense man, but you guys have a ticket priced at nearly HALF of what our cheapest nose bleed cost. And I'm pretty sure cost of living in Cincy is around the same as Cleveland, so there ya go. I'll provide some links real quick, not counting on fans of the turds to be able to read them tho.

    Houston Texans vs. Bengals, lowest priced ticket ACTUALLY available is 49.99, that is 15 under face (a rare deal on stub hub)

    Bengals vs. Browns, lowest priced ticket availabl is 80 dollars, thats 15 over face.

    Now on to the brownies

    Browns vs. Ravens, LOWEST priced ticket available 11 dollars ROFL hahahaha, you guys can't even get people to pay face AGAINST the RAVENS. Wow what a great fan base LOL.

    Steelers at Browns, lowest priced ticket is 30 dollars. HAHAHAHA, our games against the steelers are usually priced in the low hundreds by now on stub hub. PATHETIC

    http://www.stubhub.com/cleveland-browns-tickets/browns-vs-steelers-cleveland-browns-stadium-1068466/

    Now for the actual face value results, since you guys decide to trash talk without actual knowledge.

    Cleveland Browns: lowest priced nose bleed is 35 dollars!!!

    http://www.clevelandbrowns.com/tickets/seating-information.html

    Cincinnati Bengals, lowest priced nose bleed is 65 dollars!! Yeah, thats why we don't fill up as often, and we still had one of the leagues longest sell out streaks that went from 2003 to 2010, so eat it.

    I like how you mentioned that opening games for Cleveland Brown Stadium vs. Paul Brown Stadium. Here lets look at the whole picture of the situations that unfolded. Paul Brown Stadium opened during one of the DARKEST periods in Bengal history. We had just recently drafted one of the all time NFL Bust akili smith (you guys would do the same that year with Couch, but he would last in the league much longer and see mild success) and on top of that our evil owner had strong armed our city in to giving him the most TEAM FRIENDLY stadium deal in NFL history. Which he did by threatening to take our Bengals to LA, in hindsight no city would take Brown in a package deal to get a team. So basically the bengals

    were coming off a 4-12 season and a decade of losing when Paul Brown Stadium opened up, and the previous year had drafted a QB who was pretty much an immediate bust. Yeah lots to look forward to.

    Now the opening of Cleveland Brown Stadium:

    The Browns had been out of the league for several years, were awarded the #1 pick in the NFL draft as the expansion team, and selected a player many thought to be a franchise QB. Of course Couch was not a franchise QB, but he faired considerably better than he other 1999 QB bust, our own Akili Smith. On top of all the optimism about having a new team with the number 1 overall pick and an amazing brand new stadium, you guys also thought you had much to look forward to with the Lerner family. Lerner is rich as crap, while Mike Brown has made nearly all of his money by spending bare minimum and raking in revenue sharing. Yes, Lerner ended up proving to be crap too, but thats called hindsight his 20/20, and you guys definitely had way more to look forward to after no football for what 3 or 4 years? (I honestly forget) Theres no way that people wouldn't of been pumped about a great new stadium and finally getting football back. The Bengals had nothing but misery prior to 2003, with one brief year of Jeff Blake getting us .500. So your telling me that a team that sucked for a decade with an owner that alienated his fans considerably is on the same level as a city that was football starved from having their team leave? Sorry man, but you are way off base, and I think I've pretty much proved that.

  • @wrrebel said:

    Is chris henry playing??

    Not funny.

    @bengalrocker said:

    Not funny.

    That's weird cause I laughed my ass off. The only reason you guys won the first game was because you took advantage of our defense on one play, something that happened cause it was a newly installed defense still working out the kinks. This should be a close game but I say Browns win with a much improved defense and O-Line play since week 1.

  • went to the game in cinci last year and scalped tix in the 5th row on one of the goal lines. gotta say it was pretty nice to basically be at a browns home game in cinci. thanks for that lack of caring QUEEN city

  • I really do not care about the Bengals. Never have, never have got pumped up for them. maybe we can see the Icky Shuffle at he game...

    Browns not good, Bengals OVER-RATED.....Bengals still more tham likely win LOL

So your telling me that a team that sucked for a decade with an owner that alienated his fans considerably is on the same level as a city that was football starved from having their team leave? Sorry man, but you are way off base, and I think I've pretty much proved that.

    I didn't read half of your shitty post.

    Throw out all the numbers you want, but the bottom line is the Browns sell-out and the Bengals do not. Shittiest fanbase in all of professional sports, PERIOD.
