This thread is called "new ownership", but with that I was checking into "old ownership". Here is a blurb that I found in Wikipedia about the Browns original owner:
During the summer before the 1953 season, McBride sold the Browns for $600,000 ($5,211,940 in today's dollars), more than twice the largest sum ever paid for a professional football team.[34] The old stockholders were McBride and his son Edward, along with minority owners including taxi business associate Dan Sherby, Brown and four others. The buyers were a group of prominent Cleveland men: Dave R. Jones, a businessman and former Cleveland Indians director, Ellis Ryan, a former Cleveland Indians president, Homer Marshman, an attorney who had founded the Cleveland Rams, Saul Silberman, owner of the horse race track later known as Thistledown Racecourse, and Ralph DeChairo, an associate of Silberman.[35][36

Just make the change of ownership before the season starts so we will have something to cheer for. And bring in those cheerleaders even if we have to find some dancers at the Hustler club. They will make good entertainment for the young men and keep them from turning into gay soccer fans.
How about if they just win, baby.

I prefer grinders suggestion. sorry Gipper.
It ain't like you can't go to the Flats or Brookpark Rd. and not see pootytang any time you like, but you can't see the Browns win football games any time you like. So let's go with the winning.
I will resurrect the Cheerleaders thread for your edification.
