  • this gets dumb thread of the year so far...nuff said.

  • How can somebody say they would root for the Browns no matter which city they played for? If it was the Baltimore Browns, your saying you would have left with them?

  • I love when people say you must be young because you want change. Let me guess you still have a pager because you like old things. There is nothing wrong with change at ALL. I am not saying change the colors or even the helmet. How about add a color or change the shadewof the color.

    Yes the NFL is about MONEY just like everything else!!! So if its about money you market towards people who buy jerseys and hats. Who buys these things the 15-30 yrs olds!!!!

    As for Vick not defending him just showing facts someone said what has he done, and I proved he has done a shit tone more than any QB we have had in 20 yrs...

  • History? The Greeks had a glorious history. The British had a glorious history. Where are they now? The once mighty empires have crumbled. One is broke while the other is a shadow of its former self. The USA does not have such a long history in comparison. Who is the powerhouse in the latest century?

    History is a reference to who you were not an indicator of who you will become.

    The Cleveland Browns named after Paul Brown has moved. The Soul(Paul Brown) moved to Cincinnati and became the Bengals. The Body(The Team/People) left to Baltimore leaving the obituary page in Cleveland. What came back was a sheep in dogs clothing. They have inherited the history that belongs to somebody else but they are now part of our Citys family. And they are us.

    Will anyone have a problem if it was the NY Giants who moved here and won two superbowls as the Cleveland Giants? I bet we wont have any trouble with a winner if they won instead of supporting a team struggling to have a winning record. So, I dont see any problem with what the name of the team is.

    First off, you are double fucking dumbass wrong about the "Soul" and The Body. We fans are the Soul and the City of Cleveland and Northeast Ohio is The Body.

    That history doesn't belong to any other motherfuckers on earth than us.

    So get that straight in your brain...or employ Mr. Colts invention on it.

  • The third question of this poll is stupid, I'm a Cleveland Browns fan. Not just a Cleveland Fan, or a Browns fan. A Cleveland Browns Fan. But you didn't put that choice in there. If they moved to another city and were still called the Browns, I wouldn't watch them. I doubt many people in LA follow the St. Louis Rams, or in St. Louis following the Arizona Cardinals. And I highly doubt any sucker in Baltiwhore is following the Indianapolis Colts.

  • I've been in support of changing or tweaking the uni's for a looooong time. What is encouraging is the vote count isn't all that bad, showing more and more that others wouldn't mind a change too.

    I'm pumped to have Haslam, and looking forward to a progressive thinking ownership.

    Cleveland fans are unfortunately much like the city - stodgy, stubborn and out of touch with many things.

    I really don't get why so many are so against a little change.

    Exactly... Question 3 kept me from registering my opposition to both Uniform and name change. I see I am not alone and that means any results for Q's 1 and 2 are skewed.

    I'd say your viewpoint is skewed. Tampa's unis are the ONLY NFL team makeover I've seen I thought was a definite improvement. And my point of reference starts in 1960. OK, the Steelers unis of the 40s and Decatur Staley's (who became the Chicago Bears) sucked- But we're talking leather helmet days there. Incidentally- I think the Denver Donkeys new rags are hideous.

    What about:

    - the original Bengal uniforms? The "Bengal" on the helmits alone are worth making the list.

    - the original Bronco uni's? Can you say vertical stripes?

  • HELL NO! Leave the name, colors, and especially the helmet ALONE!

  • If the Browns did what the Seahawks did with their unis this year.

  • The Browns have one of the best looking uniforms in the NFL. Why would they change that?

  • Born and raised in Akron area. A new name and costumes wouldn't kill me. I just want to have a competent coaching staff, players who can and want to play and an owner who gives a shit. Having my Browns jersey on nowadays is like having a yellow Alfred E Newman tee shirt that reads "What? Me Worry" on. People look and laugh and all I can do is laugh with them. I still wear it though.

    I like it. I think Brown on Brown would be pretty cool, that's how I set it up on Madden. Sorry, yes I am a Madden player.

  • Madden is garbage, I can't believe millions of people dish out 60 bucks every year for that crap game.

    I like those jersey's but I'd go with box numbers,Brown on Browns looks good, just not feeling the orange helmets, yeah I know it's sacrilege. 🙄

    I'd go with a variation of this helmet.

    And slap the Browns Dawg on it, modern,stylish and bad ass.

  • I love our uni's, I love our name, and I love Cleveland.

    Well said.

    Orange, WHite and Browns do NOT suck as a color combination and are not going away However, the combinations of the colors and the way they are used cen be modified infinately. I for one want to see a dramatic as a change as the Bengals to the tiger helmet.

    A lot of teams now have color combinations that one would never have expected, even though the base colors are still intanct. The Ravens and Cardinals sporting black jerseys for one, is an out-of-the-box comibation, even though it is perfectly in line with their original scheme.

    With the Browns the biggest opportunity for color change on the helmet is obviously the dramatic reductions of orange and the increased use of Brown and white. Logically, with Brown isnot a very attractive and flashy color, the greatly increased use of white on the helmet is a logical option, and one which I would like to see.

    I so dig the cards black uni, saw them for the 1st time a week or two ago and thought they were very tough lookin. As for our uniforms, idk how i would feel about a dramatic change. Some tweaks or a more "modern" looking uni wouldnt be so bad i guess. As for the white helmets go, if a white helmet was used in an alternate uniform package, i think id be ok with it. Maybe white helmet, orange jersey with either brown or white pants.

  • I like the helmet above with the 33 on it. If they were going to make a change to the helmet, i'd rather them put the #s on it rather than some logo. Maybe put a small logo on the back next to the stripe. Preferably the elf.

  • I didn't design it, just copied the pic from this web page.
