33. I can remember the browns being good, but all my childhood football memories culminate in heartbreak and a deep hatred of john elway.

As a baby boomer. I'm old enough to remember lying on my belly in the living room while I watched the Browns on a black and white tv that carried only three channels. I watched the "Heidi" game and was outraged!! And I remember my dad going to the 1964 championship when a friend called him at the last minute with a spare ticket. Generally I'm in Hoorta's age bracket and when forms ask for my age I click the last available box. "Older than dirt" doesn't quite apply, but I'm well on my way. Oh... and the links under my signature pertain to my sons.

i listened to the '64 Championship game on the radio- beginning to end. The late great Ken Coleman was the play-by-play broadcaster. My favorite players back then were Walter Johnson and Jim Houston. i'm 55, but i don't feel a day over 60.

I actually think I may be the oldest poster on the board. I know I've got you beat!

33...and still waiting and feeping the faith that I will get to watch the Browns win a Super Bowl while I am young enough to enjoy it!

36. My best memories is in the Kosar, Newsome, Mack & Byner era.

Not a regular poster--check the board several times a day. 51 in May. One of my earliest memories is of my mom being mad at my dad, who, although not much of a drinker, came home from the corner bar drunk as a lord. That was the '64 championship. My first real Browns memory is when I was 6. I had the measles and a temperature of 105. My mom dialed up a Browns game on a transistor radio and put it on my pillow. I think they were playing Dallas and won 55-0. I may be full of shit--with a temp of 105 I was probably delirious.

42.5 Too young to have witnessed the Glory. I've been a Browns fan since I was watching a game one day around age 5-6 and I said I like that team whoever they were and my dad said "no you don't. We root for the team with the orange helmets" Thanks Dad!!! Should have went with the Steelers like the rest of my W. PA family.

I am 60. Old enough to have grown up in the era when you took it for granted that the Browns would be in the playoffs. From age 12-22 the Browns made playoffs in 1964, '65, 67,68,69,71, 72... Seven times in a 9 year period. In the 38 years since they have only been there 9 times.

48....first game I ever went to in person was Oct 1, 1972 (I still have the stub) vs. Cincy. Browns won 27-6, and I still remember the Bengals' Boobie Clark watching the ball bounce on the opening kickoff, not fielding it. The Browns recovered, the fans were going nuts....I knew this was the place I wanted to be!!!
There is only one team I've never seen play at the old or new stadium- Carolina.

just turned fiddy in december. don't look a day over 70 but act like i'm 47 (ha! zombo!).
didn't get into the browns until the late seventies. remember meeting dave logan at hopkins airport. he was on his way back to denver after the raiders beat the browns in the afc playoffs and i was on my way to boot camp. he gave me his autograph on a cocktail napkin at some seedy airport lounge.
don't know what holds more true today: my love for the browns or seedy airport lounges.
