          Bullshit. It's a GREAT choice of a team. The Browns have a history of greatness and will return again, just like Douglas MacArthur.

              Yeah, I know. I've been watching the same stinkfest as you. But 2012 will be a good year.

                  I suggest that you follow the the next ten easy steps

                  1. congratulate yourself for making a very wise choice

                  2. drink four Christmas ales within 1 hour (season dependent)

                  3. Buy as much orange and brown clothing as you can (guide is 3 months salary)

                  4. Read at least 10 books on our history

                  5. disregard the season stats from 2007 (that is still painful for me)

                  6. spend at least $1500 on seeing one game a year

                  7. But a rabid dog and train it by out-barking it (come in-handy in the dawg pound)

                  8. worship Kosar, Sipe, Ryan. Graham hourly ( see point 4 above)

                  9. Get a "ginger Ninja " tattoo

                  10. Buy a ticket to see the worlds best football franchise in history

                  Works for me

                  It's simple.

                  Oh. and be ready for a bumpy ride - but I think you chose a good off season to become a Browns fan - we are going to kill this year.

                  but what do i know.......

                  Tailgate loving, Steelers hating, Trans-Atlantic Browns fan. Annually disappointed since '88. Annually optimistic since '88. GO BROWNS!

                      Here's another welcome, especially to a REAL Fan & not a front runner. While it has not gone smoothly in a long time, you'll find Brown's Fans to be the most loyal & passionate in the NFL. The only ones coming close to rivaling our loyalty are Green Bay Fans & that's pretty good company. As stated, the Browns have a very rich history & you'll learn plenty just by following this Board.

                      Enjoy the ride....We are a Team on the rise!

                      Mike

                          hey man, welcome aboard.

                          if you become a regular poster here you might wonder WTF is going on. believe me we are all die hard fans who want only the best for this team. AND if you keep reading some of our threads you might scratch your head wondering why some of us "on paper" seem to not get a long. this is not fan hate on hate, it's just some people don't agree on the way things are being done to achieve the status of once again being a powerhouse.

                          we all have our differences of opinion.

                          that being said (after reading posts of fan vs, fan) we all wan this team to succeed. bottom line.

                          let's hope you bring us the luck to take us over the top.

                          LET'S GO MFing BROWNS!!!

                            man dont know why you chose us but let me tell you summin about the browns they may suck but 4 weeks a year you will be the happiest man in the world for the other twelve it will feel like your girlfriend kicked you in the balls after she slept with your best friend the night after you proposed to her and she said yes.... yep thats how it feels. but seriously if you are into passionate fans, classic rivalaries,(steelers)blue collar cities and a hard working mentality then you have come to the right place people will ridicule you for your decision but you have chosen to be a fan of a team you like insted of a pussy ass front running son of a bi tch. and for that i respect you and welcome you into the lifetime joy and pain of being a cleveland browns fan. welcome!

                                  and...what he said.

                                  this Board will tell you as much about the Browns of late as any place. seriously, you can go back years on here. one-stop-shop if you will, this place is an awesome resource.

                                  there's no better place i'd rather kill time than in an unread thread on TheBrownsBoard.

                                  so welcome to the Brownies, and welcome to TBB.

                                  but, as miktoxic alluded to: buckle up...and don't forget your helmet. 😉

                                    The football tradition of Northeast Ohio is beyond compare. There is a reason the Pro Football Hall of Fame is here: because the NFL was founded right here. And more pro football championships have been won by teams here than anywhere else. (tied with Green Bay).

                                    And the fans are the most loyal here. Its not like elsewhere where you win 4 titles in a decade, and within a few years only 35-40K show up for a game.

                                    And here is a slogan to remember:

                                    When the Tide turns, it will be a Tsunami.

                                        A lot of people will tell you probably fourth or sixth street because they're close to downtown. Unfortunately downtown kind of sucks unless you like the casino. I haven't been there but it just opened so it has to be nice. There are a lot of cool places in Cleveland and some of the nearby Suburbs like Lakewood but you're best to have a car if you want to get to any of them.

                                        Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...
